a plant with very complicated emotions
I hate that I've become this person, but I switched my personal PCs to Linux a little while ago, and it's been awesome. Like, don't get me wrong, it's often annoying, and a lot of stuff randomly doesn't work, but that's also true with Windows now, so it doesn't really feel any worse.

I feel like we were robbed of some amazing umbra designs...

Veggie stock is awesome, but I usually don't have the patience and just compost everything. The upside is that they'll become new veggies one day?

Oh, also, currently the test cases in my code are... *fine*, but do a lot of manual setup and checking. The single step tests forced me to write data driven setup/verification which should eventually help me simplify my individual opcode tests a lot, which is a really nice side benefit.

@binji.bsky.social Thanks again for pointing me this way. It really helped sort out a lot of random bus read/write inaccuracies (not a huge deal, but nice to have cleared up!), and more importantly, just gives me a lot more confidence to have another test suite give me the thumbs up.

This is sweet. I'm definitely going to take advantage of this.

I think a good, illustrative example is this one. `makeopcode` is a function that stitches an addressing mode to its operation *at compile time*, effectively generating a unique function for each opcode while allowing me to only have to write each addressing mode and operation exactly once.

I've been writing it in Zig, and it's mostly lived up to its reputation as a better C. I think comptime is the only flashy feature I've used from it, but I really like it quite a lot.

We just pulled off to get gas, and following the directions to turn left put me on the wrong side of the road. It didn't feel weird because the barrier in the median meant you didn't really see traffic the other way. I wasn't even sure it was one until we got to the spot traffic crossed back over.

We're going back to CA from Seattle. We're moving to the central coast/five cities/SLO area, and I am excited! We're gonna be so close to the beach!

I mean the older 6502 that were built with NMOS vs the CMOS 65c02, which obviously deserves some even *dumber* joke about being made out of gold and silver?
