Lots of items in the shop are built out of other items. You want to built towards one big item first, plus boots.

Hmm spatial awareness? Left is code right is docs and if you have any other windows they don’t break that?

Have you looked at the Lisps / Scheme / Racket yet? Racket in particular makes it quite nice to go #lang blah at the top of the file and change the parsing or interpretation entirely.

For example all the documentation pages and guides are written in scribble:

https://docs.racket-lang.org/scribble/getting-started.html#(part._first-example)

#lang scribble/base
 
@title{On the Cookie-Eating Habits of Mice}
 
If you give a mouse a cookie, he's going to ask for a
glass of milk.

And it has an entire document markup language created in it, which can output pdf or html. But you can still use @ syntax to drop in racket code to compute values. Or create templates.

I even implemented a #lang which took assembly directly (and interpreted it, it was for a class).

So if you are really after full control, you should study Lisps and their macro systems.

There is the black Mesa mod/project which revamps the graphics if that’s a showstopper for you. But it’s worth playing.

Careful you don’t come off as a sealion.

Though this is a thread about Wayland so eh.

Thanks, you made me feel old today. Get off my lawn.

I’ve watched some slow typists program, and I think I have the answer. If it takes you a while to type the code out, you are much more likely to stick to the first approach that works, and not rewrite it as much.

Uh you’re not going to believe this, but the parents volunteered the boys.

Monaco is a fun example where stealth frequently fails and yet, you just have to scramble to do something and ruuuun. You can end up hiding and trying again but short of getting everyone killed, it’s hard to get a game over. Your friends can revive you, as long as they don’t get caught and killed themselves.

It’s a good mechanic where it’s more “let’s go save Dave” then “thanks Dave now we need to restart”.

No I don’t know any Dave’s, names have been changed to protect the guilty.

Alcohol while pregnant though?

The moon is 400Mm away. Never say thousand kilometers again, the mega is the way.

Imaging if we started saying millions of kilobytes instead of GB.

You only read about the ones that get caught though…

Yeah, I remember that. I didn’t like how it felt tbh. Spend 3 points to get a what, +4 on a d20 roll? That feels real bad when the d20 rolls high and didn’t matter or rolls low and doesn’t matter. And it doesn’t matter 4/5 of the times so at the end of an adventuring day if you spent all your might on bonuses it could only pay off once.

I mean sure, you get discounts as you level up, and yes, it really pushes you to use cyphers to actually solve problems, as trying for things directly was always a toss up, and that does push you towards the main themes of exploiting random artifacts all the time but I still didn’t like it.

Or even wood that is 2’ by 3’ by 3mm.

Forgot about deli meet for the weight. It’s always “I want 300 grams of sliced black forest ham”, and not whatever that is in imperial. Do they use ounces for that?

I mean that role was SpaceX. Give them lots of money and get cool rockets. It was going great, and it was great for his image as it’s not very political. But I guess he got bored.

I was actually trying to play through that with my 202 level Chinese. I had a notebook with my translations and everything. Actually pretty good, and I like the unit Square via actual stats, as well as the fact reinforcements are all at the footsteps markers, and you never have someone popup and stab you.

But yeah what if the French Revolution also had magic girls?

You remember that orange soap you put in dry hands, and only after lathering wash with water? My hands never felt cleaner than after autoship class.

Yuuup. Webpage with a button to toggle a bit in a database. For a personal project, 1 day. For work? Well it took a few weeks to figure out what database, what pass security review, register our subdomain, get traffic quota, revise security review, mocks, learn new framework as the old one is deprecated, set up a new group to run the app as, including admin group and two person authorization to make changes. Set up autopush and test environment. Uh key rotation schedule. Reply to comments on the design doc questioning our choice of database. Translations for all the text.

Only took a quarter.

Edit: oh I forgot gdpr deletion service. But we got to hand that off to another team. Yaaay.
