I know we're -supposed- to build game mechanics in a way that makes it just easy enough for people to win so they keep coming back.
Unfortunately, I am me and @ThatNgonGuy is @ThatNgonGuy, so we're making things annoyingly difficult when we feel like it.
Good luck, chums.
OH you want to know what I'm doing this weekend? @ThatNgonGuy and I are busy doing space trucker things.
We're also wishing we knew how to animate skelmeshes a bit...but we'll get there.

"Tests passed, but the UI is broken." Sound familiar? 😅
Give AI coding agents "eyes" to self-correct layout bugs and validate builds against your #Figma designs.

Why is it that people see "right lane closed ahead" and are drawn to the right lane like moths to the flame?
Found out I need to vary my takeout orders more.
I have a local Chinese shop I'll order from so I don't forget to eat.
Went in last night and not only did they recognize me and call me by my address, they brought out my order unprompted.
But hey, building a lot of software!
Starting to think I talk to myself a lot when I'm alone at home.
Voice is messed up atm so I'm actively avoiding talking, and it occurs to me my apartment is VERY quiet?

if you were a software engineer and you don’t feel grief about giving up coding you simply weren’t a good one.
Next time I go to the doctor I'm certain I'll be told my blood pressure is too high.
When asked why, I will just say the phrase "You're right, and it's the cleanest option of all."

No, Ms. Flight Attendant, I will be waiting to fasten my seat belt until you say the boarding is complete. Are you TRYING to jinx my open seat??
Me & @ThatNgonGuy to newbs: "Don't worry about optimizing too early, you can do that later on in the process."
Me & @ThatNgonGuy to each other: "Bro what do you mean it isn't instanced? And it has HOW many faces??? What are we even DOING?! This isn't ready for alpha, damn it."
Seeing my Surface Duo on the shelf as I read about the iPhone Duo is a particularly good reminder that Apple doesn't seem to like innovating.
Oh well, hopefully it has a better shot at life than my poor Duo.
Now listen...for SOME people it is eating up all available GPU.
And that's sad.
But hear me out, it works fine on my machine like this, so maybe they just need to fix their computers?
Hey @discord, I'm curious what YOU think "Generate New Link" implies as a button action?
