So, turns out the highlight for Godot's find in folder search is *purely* based on the length of the content of the *search label.* It technically does work, but now that I'm trying to implement regex search, I have to fix it.

Every time I look at @zed.dev's gpui I always think of how much more ergonomic it would be in Kotlin. Maybe I should make some JNI bindings
A code snippet from https://gpui.rs: use gpui::{ div, prelude::*, px, rgb, size, App, Application, Bounds, Context, SharedString, Window, WindowBounds, WindowOptions, }; struct HelloWorld { text: SharedString, } impl Render for HelloWorld { fn render(&mut self, _window: &mut Window, _cx: &mut Context<Self>) -> impl IntoElement { div() .flex() .flex_col() .gap_3() .bg(rgb(0x505050)) .size(px(500.0)) .justify_center() .items_center() .shadow_lg() .border_1() .border_color(rgb(0x0000ff)) .text_xl() .text_color(rgb(0xffffff)) .child(format!("Hello, {}!", &self.text)) .child( div() .flex() .gap_2() .child(div().size_8().bg(gpui::red())) .child(div().size_8().bg(gpui::green())) .child(div().size_8().bg(gpui::blue())) .child(div().size_8().bg(gpui::yellow())) .child(div().size_8().bg(gpui::black())) .child(div().size_8().bg(gpui::white())), ) } } fn main() { Application::new().run(|cx: &mut App| { let bounds = Bounds::centered(None, size(px(500.), px(500.0)), cx); cx.open_window( WindowOptions { window_bounds: Some(WindowBounds::Windowed(bounds)), ..Default::default() }, |_, cx| { cx.new(|_| HelloWorld { text: "World".into(), }) }, ) .unwrap(); }); }

I've added a set of default colors derived from the current theme, and wired it into the newly reworked radial menu system! This should make it easier to add new radial menus in the future as well, and supports the heavily decoupled architecture I'm going for.

I added LaTeX rendering support to my static website generator coho!
It uses JLaTeXMath internally to take any LaTeX in a codeblock and statically generate an SVG. This removes the need for runtime math generation with tools like MathJax.

I've added tool customization to sunfish!

This was another one of those things that I was procrastinating because it seemed like it'd be difficult, but it ended up being not too bad.

Implemented a task queue system for sunfish! This makes theme switching much more responsive. Previously, the entire app would pause for a couple hundred milliseconds.

In the video, when I switch the boolean to true or false, that's enabling or disabling the queuing respectively.

Got my toaster system working for sunfish! I initially tried to do everything with just anchors and offsets, but I ended up writing a custom Container node to make the animations easier.

I finally got my plugin system working for sunfish! In the video I create a new theme called RedTheme, export it as a plugin, and then load it into the application.
It's based on ProjectSettings.load_resource_pack and a custom EditorExportPlatform that only exports plugin stuff.

Mojang promises unobfuscated Minecraft jars for future updates. This could go one of two ways:
- modders are happy
- they don't plan on releasing another update

Every year, we get closer and closer to a true “Egg Computer”.



We’ve already made:

- Egg Transistors

- Egg Resistive Memories

- Egg Supercapacitor electrodes

- AND + NOT Logic Gates

TFW you're just trying to find the latest in Godot news and people keep quoting this and it's messing with the feed.

also this review is hilarious
luxalptraum.com Lux 🍂 Alptraum @luxalptraum.com · Oct 8
TFW you paid $1400 to see Beckett’s most famous work without knowing anything about it
One Star Review of Waiting for Godot on Broadway I recently attended Waiting for Godot on Broadway and spent over $1,400 for two Row C seats (103 and 104). I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions and even hold a season pass for Shea's Performing Arts Theatre, so I came in with genuine enthusiasm and high expectations. Unfortunately, this show was unlike anything ! have ever experienced —and not in a good way. What I encountered was not the artistry, music, or emotional storytelling I usually associate with Broadway, but instead what felt like an endless cycle of nonsensical conversation between characters who seemed trapped in their own madness. I tried-truly tried-to find meaning, symbolism, or even a thread of emotional resonance. I stayed through the first half hoping the second would offer clarity. But by intermission, it was clear: this was a waste of both time and money. Keanu Reeves is an actor I respect greatly, but I cannot fathom why he would agree to participate in such a disjointed, inaccessible production. His talent was lost in a performance that defied reason rather than provoked insight. To anyone considering attending: unless you are drawn to highly abstract, nearly incomprehensible theater, I strongly caution you against this show. For the average, educated, thoughtful theatergoer, it is far more frustrating than fulfilling. In my opinion, this was the single most disappointing Broadway experience I've ever had - an unfortunate waste of money and, more importantly, of time.
