I often see people asking how they can get started learning how to write code. And, even though I've been a professional programmer for the past 15 years or so.. I honestly have no idea?
Like, in the world of the modern internet, how DO you learn how to code? I learned from Visual Basic books […]

For the amount of things I've done with #godot, I think it's kinda interesting that I've never done anything 2D in it (besides UI). Maybe I should give it an actual try 🤔

Does anyone know anything about #firefox Bugzilla etiquette?
I'm looking at a 2013 feature request that's closed as `WONTFIX`, but I think this feature would be very useful, and the feature is also implemented on Chrome already.
I'd also be happy to submit a patch for it should a patch be […]

Does anyone know why Win32 dialog boxes were assigned the class name "#32770"?
I can't find anything about it at all. Microsoft documentation doesn't provide any context. Nobody seems to have asked this question before.
