“Hi team, customers observing BigCannon is missing enemy about 90% of time since latest update. Red faction reported issue 4pm ET today and opposing Blue faction was able to re-pro. Can we get all hands on deck to deep dive and push a fix by midnight so both sides can start reliably shooting at each other again before tomorrow morning? Thanks”

Oh jeez I completely forgot about the pan flute. I’m pretty sure my DS mic was broken so those were all torture :,(

I really liked Spirit Tracks.

Train gameplay was actually enjoyable for me (especially the way it got used in one of the end game fights was so cool). It was also nice that Zelda was an actual part of the game and helped solve puzzles instead of some princess locked away in a castle.

I played Phantom Hourglass much later and Spirit Tracks honestly just felt much more polished and fun.

Started on the tower defense part of my visual novel. The idea is to keep cells healthy by writing policies that determine which molecules can enter a cell. It’s extremely bare bones rn :')

I hope not. I’m pretty sure me and my coworkers would be at each others’ throats if it were not for some form of typed JS holding our Frankenstein codebase together.

Congrats! Game looks really cool! Best of luck

Jekyll is what I use. There’s a lot of canned themes out there: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/themes/

Not programming per se but my sister thinks it’s okay to have 300+ Chrome tabs open and just memorize the relative locations of them whenever she needs something. She’s lucky she has a beefy computer.

My vote is Go. I’ve tried to make web services in both before and personally always found Go easier to use without noticeable performance trade-offs (even for real-time websocket apps). I feel you could always optimize more later if you start actually seeing performance issues.

Neat. I guess I’ll take me and my degenerate thoughts to the instance that shall not be named then :P

I’m not sure what’s even left for me on lemmy.ml. lemmy.world is already my home instance with nearly everything I would ever want. Only thing I don’t really want to leave behind is /c/honkaistarrail but it’s mildly dead anyways…

That would kill my laptop lol. I think my problem is that once IntelliJ starts to index it becomes very memory hungry.

Hopefully your current position is an improvement

That’s a weird way of writing IntelliJ

I enjoyed Nisekoi and would recommend. Found it entertaining to watch (although I’m also one of those people that gets unreasonably loud and excited when watching rom-coms so ymmv).

It is quite episodic and follows a formula of getting MC interacting with a chosen girl of the week in a one-off scenario for each story. This cycle kinda repeats itself forever without moving the plot forward much or developing MC’s relationship with any of the girls in any meaningful ways. You do occasionally see the main plot advance every once in a while which is centered around MC trying to find a promised girl whom he met in his childhood but those are few and far between.

The anime never finished adapting the manga so you’ll have to read to finish it. It was animated by Shaft so quality is high and it has a bit of that Shaft surrealism in it (also Onodera being voiced by Kana Hanazawa was perfect). Personally, I found S1 to be a good watch but felt something in S2’s pacing was really off for some reason.

As for the manga, it does drag on due to its episodic nature and molasses rate of storytelling. I felt at some point characters were literally being added to the harem simply as filler material to pad out the story. The ending also felt kinda hamfisted and left half the fanbase very salty.

Overall I would say watch S1 and see how you like it (there’s a lot more of it if you do)

That’s exactly what I did lol. Thankfully my Pi’s just in a drawer. If this was a remote host at work I would’ve already shat myself :P

This week I am to propose two major redesigns to an external API and webpage on my rollercoaster of a project. Let’s see this code monkey land a backflip :,)
