If I learn something short and interesting I'll sometimes post it on /r/todayilearned and get a conversation going around that. Minor difficulty is that you need to link to something, and unless it's a web article the po

Amos on the Amiga was pretty great. I was able to get sprites moving around, respond to mouse clicks, even some simple 3D with an extension. Admittedly never actually made a playable game, as my programming chops weren't good enough ye

I try to leave a well-defined little task for myself at the end of a work session which will be straightforward to pick up from the next day. Usually if I just do a little bit of anything at all to bring my project forward, the momentum wil
