Dear OCaml people, what is a good way to print the value of any variable, like a list or something? I’m having trouble finding out the value of stuff in the middle of a bunch of List.map or List.filter expressions. Ideally I’d like something simple that I can just pipe the value to to print it

Day 1 of #AdventOfCode: check!
First Elixir, went very smooth, then rewrote in OCaml. That was quite a bit harder, but I did manage to get there in the end!
Feedback welcome, especially about making things more idiomatic (or easier in the case of OCaml, I really struggled)

I went with Elixir for #AdventOfCode day 1 in the end. Will probably try to do the first few days with OCaml as well as I find it a very interesting language. And who knows, I might end up switching to it as the main language for this year’s aoc!

#AdventOfCode starts tomorrow and I haven’t decided yet which language I want to use this year. Currently hesitating between Elixir, Ocaml, and Gleam

Uhm, hello @bsky.app ? Seems there’s some issues with rotating the device on iPhone 😅

There’s been a very noticeable increase in new followers over the last two days… Hi y’all! 👋
I make video games and music and random other stuff. Currently I’m still obsessed the new Factorio expansion but I will be getting back to game development with Odin very soon

@bsky.app is the first Twitter-alternative where I actually completely forget it’s not Twitter while scrolling. None of the others ever had that effect on me, they always felt worse to use for some reason

Bad news: I didn’t do any #gamedev work today

Good news: the new #factorio DLC is amazing

Bad news: I probably won’t do much gamedev work in the following days either

These things may or may not be related, no way to tell really…

Coding an octree implementation without reference, using a new language, and on 2 hours of sleep is definitely a vibe. It does seem to be working though. Maybe tired me is better at these things than wide-awake me

So are we doing #screenshotsaturday on here? I would post something if I hadn’t just turned off my pc to go to bed. I’ll make up for it next week! Unless we’re turning it into #screenshotsunday this time? :D

I am in fact, once again, making a game from scratch! It’s a 3D Dwarf Fortress-inspired city builder I’ve tried making (and stopped working on) multiple times before.
