What the hell @xbox.com my son bought the same thing in Minecraft three times because it wasn't delivered. Still isn't delivered and I've never had an approved refund. Seriously screw you.

Got to see Jimmy Kimmel's first show in Brooklyn of this year. Wasn't sure if it was even going to happen, but had a great time. He is so talented, and I needed that after a really couple of depressing weeks and my father passing away. Thanks @jimmykimmel.com, I really needed that.

Still getting the hang of animation blending and collision detection with #godotengine. The assets from
@kaylousberg.bsky.social
are fantastic! #GitHubCopilot easily added support for the right joystick on the Xbox controller.

Yep! It took a couple of attempts. The first solution was for Godot3, so it was not compatible, but after a couple of attempts it was able to adjust the vector in the direction of the camera:

Another experiment with GitHubCopilot. I have been learning Godot, and I had an issue in my first 3D game. The player was not moving in the direction of the camera. They were always drifting at angle, so it was very awkward. Could Copilot fix the issue?

8) Then the application would never exit. It should have tried the ~4 billion possibilities and just exited, so I could tweak the extra nonce and try again, but it wouldn't exit. Of course, there was yet another overflow occurring:

7) I noticed that the application completed very quickly and hammered the Bitcoin network with block submissions. It was incorrectly the checking the hash against an incorrect target value:

6) I noticed it didn't query the device to see how many cores were available, but an additional prompt corrected this as well. Next, I noticed that the hash rate computation was incorrect. It chose Int32 to store this number which quickly overflowed each second.

2) I'm not great at CUDA C/C++ where you can write code that runs on GPUs instead of your CPU. So, I decided to give Copilot a try. The task was to create a Bitcoin miner where it would compute the SHA256 double hash of the block header on the CUDA cores in parallel on the GPU.
