C++ programmer during the day, game developer at night.
I have seen some of the worst architectural decisions made from following best practices. Best practices are meant as guidelines. If you cling to them tightly for security, avoiding solutions which may be more practical, you will end up with a codebase which is a pain to work with and maintain.

Tough to breath. Anxiety, rushing thoughts are underway, taxing my will and strength. Fear closes, folds, frusterates, flattens, fuels more fear. It feeds from my love, willpower, dreams. It takes and takes leaving nothing more than a ghost. Broken and shattered, empty and exhausted.

It's impossible to know the value of a moment until it becomes a precious memory..

I fasted this week for 108 hours. It was the longest I have ever fasted and a fun experiment. Learned a lot from it, and was great for my physical and mental health. 😁

I think it's important to remember, with everything extremely fucked up and dumb right now, that at the root of it, fuck fuck fucking fucking fuck.

A guy who used to be a comedian & is good at improv and dealing with hecklers and who has also spent the last 3 years in a war zone turns out to be a guy you can’t out-alpha, imagine that

Per @chrisdjackson.bsky.social on another platform:

“It took me 30 seconds to find at least ten postings from Zelensky directly thanking the United States for their support. There are many more.

This is pure BS.”

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Dear President Zelensky,

As it is likely that our paths will never cross in person, I could not let this day go by without trying to reach you here.

I come to you humbly as an American citizen who is thoroughly and completely embarrassed of our leaders.

Worth noting that when the war started Zelensky’s English was very shaky and he’s clearly spent a ton of time improving it for exactly this purpose.

Today, in a meeting at the White House, the only person actually defending American interests was Zelenskyy.

Let that sink in.

In Oblivion, I would compulsively smash the jump button everywhere I went to see my acrobatics skill slowly increase 😂
Some game design decisions lead to quirky player behavior.

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.

I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

Nobody should be surprised that our Secretary of State is a pathetic, weak, cowardly piece of shit.
