Finally noticed and fixed a long-standing line-ending/whitespace bug on Windows in marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName… If you’ve experienced the whole-file-conflicted bug, it should work properly now.

Speaking human is easy. Just gate the vacuous prose, guard the focused wire, surface the durable objective, preflight the comprehensive causal story, and make sure every authored or vendored word is hardened - #claude, #gpt

"The execution backend is temporarily unavailable." How is this a thing, #cursor? It's just like if I tried to use a light switch and it suddenly didn't work because the server was down.. oh wait 😂

I'm excited to share a Vulkan library/provider I've been working on. I'd love to hear what you think! - Lightweight C++ RAII + utils - Composable, to make things quick, not an ecosystem - Just build and run, no Vulkan SDK needed github.com/pknowles/vulka… #cpp #vulkan #gamedev

struct Buf { Buf() { glGenBuffers(1, &m); } ~Buf() { glDeleteBuffers(1, &m); } GLuint m; }; Mesh obj(...) { Buf indices(...); Buf positions(...); return {indices, positions}; } Can u spot the #cpp bug? 👀 heuristic42.com/blog/67 #gamedev #programming

Ever wanted to quickly read/write files but found fstream/fopen combersome? I made a thing: github.com/decodeless - Write to a memory mapped file instead - Write binary data, no serialization - Pointers remain valid while writing - Growable memory

I was idly contemplating making my own ergonomic mechanical keyboard back on 2022/07/11. I've just finished the left half and decided to start writing about the journey: heuristic42.com/blog/54

Finally got some time to play with an #Arduino again 😃. The display just wouldn't work, until eventually I did absolutely nothing and it did... And people laugh at me for recompiling just to see if the error goes away by itself.
