Music teachers are angels; you cringe if someone is off by a couple of cents in the pitch. Imagine it’s 99.9999% of the time, all the time, all day.

I just learned that Neat Corp is a real company, in fact, it’s a game studio that made Budget Cuts. I should have Googled it first before integrating it deeply into my game. Grrr…

Can we make glasses that automatically remove dust, cover themselves automatically if I try to touch them, and also protect themselves from the rain and fog?

Hey! I can smell coffee again, thank goodness it wasn’t permanent loss.

Just keep swimming.

Don’t give up on your dreams. Go back to sleep. 😂

My sense of smell has become selective. I cannot smell any coffee. I had a bitter, warm, dark drink instead of coffee, with zero smell. I put my nose directly in the cup, nothing.

In Blueprint, it’s called “Simulation Generate Hit Events”, but in C++, it’s called SetNotifyRigidBodyCollision.

It really sucks to get COVID while having long COVID. I felt hopeful; I found a way to get my productivity back to almost 100% of my pre-long COVID condition, and COVID knocked me back. That sucks big time.

I am happy to report that an experiment with not closing tabs in Google Chrome showed that approach is not sustainable. The benefit of not closing tabs is having your context always fresh, but after 1,200+ tabs, Chrome became sluggish overall, with UI slowdowns for many operations, such as opening a tab, moving a tab, or switching to a tab. Additionally, starting Chrome took a significant amount of time, about 10 seconds. Furthermore, the benefits of keeping the context diminished after a certain threshold, because opening tabs consumed RAM, and you cannot actually review more than 50 tabs at a time.

Do we have robotaxi? Elon Musk promised them on August 8.

Hey, YouTube. Can you save me some money? Can you implement a decent way to listen to music on YouTube? I just don’t want to pay premium for Spotify, and I’m already paying for YouTube. I assume the answer is no, but who knows?

Game idea: it’s like Geometry Dash, but platforms are notes in the piano roll, and while you’re going through the level, music from the piano roll is playing.

I learned that animators color controllers right side red and left side blue. OMG, it is going to mess up with my brain big time, because in my mind, airplanes and ships are green on the right and red on the left. Right is right, so it is green, and left is wrong, so it is red.

We usually do public inheritance in C++, like class B: public A , but probably it is not necessary; we should by default do private inheritance like class B: A, and upgrade to public only if it is necessary..

Earthquake 4.4 magnitude in Highland Park, CA. I did not feel it.


🌸 Mon, Aug 12, 2024 🌸

Earthquakes in California make for a fun conversation starter. We can’t talk about the weather because it’s always warm and sunny, so we talk about earthquakes: ‘Did you feel it?’ ‘Yes, I did,’ and so on.

I downloaded my ChatGPT conversations - 45 MB of data. For perspective, War and Peace is 3.4 MB. I’ve read every single word of ChatGPT’s replies. I’m concerned: how much brainwashing have I received from reading every line from ChatGPT?

If you suppress people’s speech, and do not allow them to say their opinion, it does not mean they will change their mind.

That wave of long COVID or possibly straight COVID (I did not test, what’s the point? Just self-isolate) is killing my productivity. I did not work on my game for 3 days, starting from Monday, and cannot motivate myself to work on it today. I’ll rest. It’s unhealthy to force myself.

I have a proposal to corporations: instead of laying off thousands of employees, fire the executive team and rehire professional, experienced, and competent executive leaders. I don’t believe it will ever happen, though.
