I streamed 253 times on Twitch this year; I have no idea when I did it. I feel like I barely streamed this year.
TIL; Talking about your salary is a protected topic under Section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). So, what’s your salary?
I agree that multitasking is bad; I would prefer to focus and be in the flow, but it’s not possible in corporations: meetings and iteration loops are so long that if you want to get things done in a timely manner, you have to multitask. Otherwise, 99% of your day will be watching progress bars, waiting for IM replies and nodding in the meetings.
If you want gdb to be able to attach to the running process, you need to run:
$ echo 0 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope

Have you heard about IncludeOS? Using this library, you can build binaries that can run directly on the machine without needing any supporting OS. It can be very useful for your microservices on the cloud. A Hello World app is less than 1M and needs a VM with only 5MB RAM.
What happened with the Turing test? For years, it was accepted as the bar to declare whether artificial intelligence is the same as human intelligence. Suddenly, it became not good enough, and I can’t find any proposed alternatives. Why did this happen?

Tabs, spaces, 2 spaces, 4 spaces, Egyptian style, CamelCase, snake_case; I have my preferences, but I am not going to argue, just give me .clang-format.

I’m screwed; my terminal froze.

I didn’t play it; can you explain what the appeal is with Baldur’s Gate 3? I just didn’t like the character design; they all look so creepy.

Why in movies do protagonists always park their cars in the middle of the road? Why don’t they go to the curb?

My laptop fan is dying; as a modern society citizen, I tried to find a replacement part and failed. So I drowned fans in WD-40, I put so much that it was dripping; wiped off everything. It works fine so far.

Some of the old-timers probably know that I am dreaming of building a metaverse (aka Mikaverse or Naypea). I was thinking where players could host their games, and I think I have got the idea. They can publish games on the git; I need to figure out how to put a git client inside the UE5 game.

I like Emacs; I wish it were slightly faster, though.

Studies show that people with long hair, on average, are half a pound heavier than those with short hair.
This is an unfunny joke pointing out that hair has a weight.

Are you good at finding laptop parts? I put all of the Internet upside down. I need to find a replacement cooling system for my laptop: CLEVO 6-31-PC503-102.

I cannot figure out how to print -n with echo. Even ChatGPT does not know. The closest what is suggested is printf -- "-n\n".
After reading the manual, I came up with this monstrosity: echo -e "\x2Dn".

Blender plugin SendToUE is great. I wonder if we have something that would do it in the other way around, select the mesh in UE and open a Blender file corresponding to the mesh.
It’s raining. Just saying.
I used to be a guy who thought that if I had a perfect environment around me, I would rock-n-roll. Perfect height of the table, ergonomic keyboard, perfect text editor, compiler, some productivity tools, figure out the perfect way to write the software; all these programming patterns, methodology, productivity, perfect font, perfect color schema, perfect height of the chair, temperature in the room, music for focus. And then you have got everything you realized your head is empty and you don’t know what to do. Over years I learned it is all procrastination, you need only one thing to be productive: iron ass. You just sit and write the code, no matter what.
Why buying assets from the asset store for your game is considered a negative thing? Why is it a consideration? If the game isn’t fun to play, it’s not fun to play even if you made all the assets yourself.
I’m making a common mistake and reading reviews of my game. 😢
If we all stopped buying what was advertised, companies would stop advertising because it doesn’t work. Should we do it?
Honestly, ads are getting really annoying. I won’t put any advertisements in my games, and I won’t spend any money to advertise my games.
I have just got an ad on my Amazon Echo. I want to throw it in the window.
It’s raining again. Just saying.
Windows 11’s taskbar is bad. If I have more than one Chrome window, I need to make two clicks to switch to one of them. Every extra click adds up. There are no visual indicators that I have multiple Chrome windows. I can use Alt+Tab, but I am talking about the taskbar. Also, it is fat.
If your item was stolen and the police were not able to resolve the crime, the government should return sales tax you paid for the item. My reasoning is that we pay taxes for schools, roads, fire departments, and police. If the police cannot do their job, we should get money back. Satisfaction guaranteed or money back.
