Unemployment training and smart pacing resulted in maybe my best bike race result ever? 8th overall at the Palo duro xc marathon. Lots of attrition due to heat and a tough course.

Global EV sales are up 23% YTD, with 1.9M sold in October — and historically, the record month every year is December as quotas, fleets, and subsidies all pile in (especially in China). 2025 is the first time September’s 2.1M might actually beat December… but history says December loves to surprise.

Mark Wolf, a federal judge appointed by Reagan, is resigning after 40 years on the bench.
In an essay published by The Atlantic this week, he wrote, “The White House’s assault on the rule of law is so deeply disturbing to me that I feel compelled to speak out. Silence, for me, is now intolerable.”

ok! have the basics set up in Godot now to start making a game. I've got a gridmap with a meshlibrary.
On startup I build my own internal data structure of the world, so I know what blocks are where, and I can rotate and move my characters around the gridmap.
next up maybe make the camera follow

Now trying my game idea with 3D isometric instead of 2D. Will make a lot of things easier, hopefully I can figure out lighting and camera settings so it *looks* like 2d pixel art.

This is the blog post I wish I'd read before starting the KCL parser. I think someday we'll rewrite the parser to use this approach. KCL parser has to be more error-tolerant, and I think this would help a lot. If you're keen on parsers or PLs, read this tutorial!
