I think the years of gamedev and my love of monorepos (I am a bit of a Bazel enjoyer) has made it so my default is usually to just add internally, before reaching externally. Unless the benefit is clear (e.g tokio, serde etc.) But definitely don't think my way is the only way. Thanks for answering!

I certainly see the appeal, and don't get me wrong, I am just as "guilty" of doing this. But I think the same argument can be extended to something like npm, but somehow it is wrong in that ecosystem. I think that Rust crates on average are higher "quality" but that is certainly hard to quantify

This is mostly coming from the uneasy feeling that some (not all, but a significant portion) of the Rust ecosystem took the JS mindset of "Everything can be a package that you can import"! I don't see how all all these tiny crates full of 3 line utils are not the same attack/issue vector.

Genuine question (I promise I don't mean it in a snarky way!) - why prefer to pull 3rd crates for things like UTF-8 paths and better fs errors? Why not have a "companion" standard library extension crate with your preferred utilities that you just use in your projects?

Sad to see that "resistance to change" has continued to plague the games industry for so long. No one understands (or wants to risk) how investment into new tech can improve workflows. The sad part is that this attitude is now the default prevailing attitude outside of games as well.

If you use Ctrl+Shift+F or from the Find menu - Find Handle or DLL, it should bring up a new dialog window where you can search for those things.

Pretty sure there is a "Filter" search field in the top bar (next to the mini graphs). Ctrl+F also focuses that field like most applications. It is a pretty primitive search though - no fancy expressions unfortunately.

Please do that! I will buy a significant amount and distribute them passive-aggressively as surprise gifts throughout the year!

I am so happy I found this project (originally on twitter), been a blast following it. It really showcases something I have believed for a while, that a strong style trumps the chase for realistic graphics (for me at least). Keep going, its awesome!

One of my "resolutions" this year is to try to reduce the amount of take out I get. Last year I managed to get it down to once a week (it felt like a little treat every week), but even for a single person, prices of delivery are getting absurd. I also enjoy cooking, so I think double win.
