Software engineer by day, hobbyist game dev by night, husband, dad, tend to be hanging around F#, Typescript and Swift stacks these days. Love F#, Godot, games, anime, haiku, oolong and kukicha, nature. 🎮🍵🌳🦔

The opinions expressed here are solely my own.
Tough but I’m going to go with Frasier.

Fringe, and Psych are also essentially tied for my favorite though. Hard to choose between any of them.

Day 1 purchase (ps5). I suppose I should now let go of my grudge on Silksong for causing the delay.

Cool thing is, the domain modeling in F# maps pretty well to both TS and Swift if you do compact serialization of discriminated unions. (It also works pretty well with Dart 3.1+…and I’ll have an opinion about Kotlin soon 😄).

I find that a fully F# backend really carries the whole stack.

The backend is a monolith of microservices (each microservice a project in the same F# solution). The FE is Typescript/React, but sliced by bounded context - so like the server-side it’s loosely coupled ui modules that could easily be micro-frontends if desired.

Then Swift / Swift UI for iOS.

Typescript and React (SPA).

I’ll do Dec 8th.

A couple years ago I went by myself to see Shin Ultraman in the theater, then hit a ramen bar afterwards. That was a neat day.

Subscribed…and one of the best games of all time - always up to watch a stream of that.

Happy birthday!

I expect it’s some combination of aging, and a coping mechanism of the absolute chaos of society today. Either way clearly it seems like I go to comfort music now.

Sometime in my mid-30’s it became common for me to wake up or lay awake stressing about decisions I made, things I do, what ppl think, etc. Eventually I had to adjust my schedule to be more tired at night.

Anyway, please be kind to yourself. You have a lot of followers and we all enjoy you.

Wow, it must be bigger than the first one then right? IIRC the first one was about 50 - 70 hours even with being a collectionist.

I heard there was a Samurai Champloo style mode where you have hip hop in the background. I’m very intrigued by that.

Pretty much my exact sentiments as well. I didn’t think it could live up to Prey, but exceeded my expectations (and I was cautiously hopeful too). I left hoping Dek and Thia’s adventures continue with more movies.
