> He thought and wrote "-2000 lines". Management stopped asking Bill to fill out the form. This lesson stuck with me for years. Final results alone are measurable, not productivity.

Because I'm in the vast minority. There's no chance I will convince anyone I'm right, and I have no interest in doing so.

Meh, a longer life isn't necessarily a happier one.

Then how would you install quickjs? conan? download and copy the files manually?

In other words I'm very lost and in over my head.

I will never use AI. My latest project is os.90s.dev but it's stuck. This weekend I plan to recreate love2d but with SDL3 + TypeScript.

> They were just missing precision manufacturing techniques to make a steam engine that actually did useful work. That's the point. They had sustainable and clean technology. It was a sweet spot.

It actually wasn't poisonous given the circumstances.

Thanks for the recommendation, I never would have guessed someone made something like this! But of course they did. I was definitely wondering how I would do this outside of Excel, but I have so many projects going on right now that figurin

I can't do it. I can't work in Visual Studio. It's so unintuitive. I have to do this in VS Code.

To be honest I was just not giving the benefit of the doubt to the comment I was replying to. I should practice that.

Fair enough, maybe I'll include it after all. Unless I get hung up on the question of which physics engine to include. Endless possibilities make decisions difficult.

That is really cool and inspires me and makes me want to play it and make stuff like it, thanks for showing it to me. I really do live under a rock it seems.

2d is the ideal for gamedev, always has been. I was so sad when Mario 64 came out and they moved on from Super Mario World's perfection. Fortunately the world is coming back to its senses with games like Animal Well.

Why do I want to make money from my hard work? Or why am I sad when someone offers a way to bypass paying money for hard work to get something for free?

My only plan for that was to add shadertoys effects to the text. Not great hence I hadn't started.

by 90s_dev 1y ago
I was kind of hoping it would be for text based adventures, since last night I had the idea for one, where you're an adult and you have to do adult things like file taxes and go to work and dust your house and the less you do these thi

Something about me has always wanted to learn and master C++. I've read through Stroustrup's book almost entirely, and still never written a single line of C++. I don't know why I have this goal in life, but I do. This projec

Mainly it just reminded me of what happened last night and seemed like good timing because of the similarity, but also I appreciate blog posts that are short and get right to the point of how to do something. Half of the problems I got past
