@nicbarkeragain @2BitSalute zed has been my favorite for working with C! i manually create a “compile_commands.json” for the project and then clangd just works.

@steveruizok are you using something like sdl2 or cocoa directly? and how was it?

[austin merrick @onsclom]

what if chess didn't have turns?

[austin merrick @onsclom]

@Dazlog @Polyducks yes, almost flexbox level support! https://t.co/4zIjPlRdJh

@Dazlog @Polyducks love this! this got me thinking, could `image-rendering: pixelated` make the unscaled gif work at all sizes? also, maybe the static face could be an image, and just the eyes could be a small two frame gifs placed on top!

implemented clamping like disk voyager does. such a huge improvement when letters wrap around!

[austin merrick @onsclom]

what if typing was more fun?

[austin merrick @onsclom]

omg, THIS is the solution to word wrapping being so noisy!

One UI animation trick I employed in #DiskVoyager: clamping the distance for items traveling long distances. This reduces the noise while maintaining direction. It's easier on the eye but users still perceive it similarly. Animation feedback can truly enhance large layout shifts.

https://t.co/8U0PujtSXT these are all so cool!

[austin merrick @onsclom]

i love digging into the source code for some of these and finding extra features! in https://t.co/aVdqytH7Uh, pressing "a" animates everything!
