@jeputz @keysmeys You also want to look at acceleration, flight ceiling, and stability especially one handed while casting spells at disagreeable wizards or transphobes.
@amolitor99@matthew_d_green System RNGs are notoriously too broken even for game development. I still remember when we would get alternating even and odd numbers from crappy LCRNGs. Can't even trust them with a fair dice roll.
@amolitor99@matthew_d_green As a game developer who just wants a little randomness I'm already using a mix of sha256 and an implementation of Fowler-Noll-Vo I pulled from Wikipedia anyway.
I can also thank South Africa for investing time & resources in variant monitoring, despite the risk they face of being stigmatized as a “source” of variants.
They find variants first because they’ve learned it’s better to confront hard truths than hide your head in the sand.
I don't know what's going on with rust, but my sense is it is a small, inclusive community at the brink of major growth involving money and power. This would seem to make it an attractive target for bad faith actors who pretend to care about inclusivity.
It's a red flag for me when some documentation gives me step-by-step instructions on how to do something. We're computer programmers. We give instructions to the computer not to each other.
So my cat hates his cat food. Like he eats it. That part is fine. But it is his enemy. Whenever we get out the bag it's claws out, growling, get out of my territory, food.
I don't always suck at coding but my voxel game is fully bugs. Like this is a sphere. So stream tonight will probably be me staring at the screen for three hours saying how I don't understand literally anything. I bet it's something that can't happen in safe rust though. I bet.
I think when a person is genuinely working to create a better a future for all, there's always another person looking to capture that work for their own exclusive profit, and we should use this insight, without cynicism, to, squeeze out as much as we can of that better future.
What if all these people screaming at the top of their lungs at retail workers got banned from the stores?
What if as a society we didn't encourage this behavior?
I worked retail for years and I think people forget that the person on the other side of the counter is a PERSON!
