@jaffathecake my brother and I did the same thing in PowerPoint!
we built like 15 screens of an adventure game and then naively tried to implement inventory management. things did not go smoothly after that.
@keithfwhitman@SemibrevePT thanks for sharing Keith!
I studied the recording of your 2019 STEIM workshop religiously, it informed most of my choices when I got around to building my own system. absolutely invaluable stuff 🙏

якщо виявиться найбільший, то це поза розіграшем, я вірно зрозумів?
(а то я оце закинув і тепер думаю чи не демотивував людей кидати далі 👉👈)
@teej_dv@sudobunni more about cultural context than software itself, but I'm really enjoying The Dream Machine by M. Mitchell Waldrop
and Code by Charles Petzold is great
just made a "decentralized" "alternative" to twitter; everyone should go "join" it
to make an account: fork https://t.co/vv271yPEMr
to tweet: git commit --allow-empty
to follow someone: git remote add <alias> <their fork url>
to retweet: git cherry-pick <their "tweet">
@JoshWComeau Did exactly the same just a couple of days ago (I assume the motivation is similar).
I do feel some degree of FOMO (so much cool stuff happening here in the web dev space), but decided newsletters should be enough, at least for now.
Thanks for what you do Josh!
@oleg008 same, but I'm even worse with videos, especially if the topic is not completely new - I tune off and miss the interesting bits, so have to rewind constantly. skipping ahead is also awkward, never know if you miss something valuable
semi-valuable books are at least easier to parse
@oleg008 shouldn't optimization for stability include optimizing for change? or are we talking about "new tech" as in "massive paradigm shift" where API surface area changes a lot?
