 this is how I write trello cards or tickets.
 
 and yes, before you ask, modding this game is a constant struggle because the
 mod tools are... minimal... so you must work around various challenges by, for
 example, adding 1680 different "events" that must be checked every single turn
 for every single province on the map.
A trello card describing a proposed change to a video game mod that has only one person working on it. It's essentially documentation. It is written in a professional style with several sections - the first lists the "current behavior", the second shows the intended behavior (with a small section for the intended effects of the intended behavior), and the third major section lists the proposed solutions in as much detail as possible without writing the code itself.

 doing my best to get at least one bugfix or feature done per day on my
 video-game mod. I think the regularity and discipline could do me well.

 mega-game so whenever you wanted you could work on an arbitrary project and it
 would spin up a new game and take your inputs and use them to accomplish

 what if I use equal signs instead of dashes, so prevent people from assuming
 they're duplicates?
 
 hmm okay.
 
 right so anyway the star realms balancing tradeoff between combat and authority
 is measured against the duration of a hand (does it fit balanced between other
 cards of it's playcost) instead of balancing it for the duration of the game
 (how long does the player want the game to go on for) one of which is just
 inverse combat damage / healing, and the other of which is an enablement of
 different strategems.
 
 put this in symbeline-gen-realms please

 ... the trick is, depending on how many train-engine-dragons you fight, there
 will be a greater or lesser proportion present in a particular playthrough.
 Perhaps, potentially, people should pay for the original work, and then a
 small sliver for the addition or modification? Why, I do believe that's how it
 works now! Except, on the honor system, as people can download the mods for
 free and pay (or not) through the creator's patreon page or whatever that they
 definitely set up and which definitely shouldn't be able to levy a tax based
 on "transaction fees" for a process which definitely should be handled by the
 government, which claims to regulate our economy and provide the means by
 which we engage with said economy through their de-facto nationalization of
 the banks and other economic entities.
 
 where was I going with this? oh yes software piracy is ethical so long as you
 delete the original. Let's end with that because that's what I originally had
 a dream about and wanted to write about.
 
 she dreams!

 another cool thing about FAF is that you can download a mod that shows the

 cursors started staying permanently in the top-left corner.

 So much of computing is just... handling the quirks of hardware and presenting
 it to the user (programmer) in a way that is sane and makes sense, instead of
 the arcane and [nebulous/confabulous/incomprehensible] way that physical
 nature demands our absurdly potentialized computational endeavors be.

 can't fucking wait till we're done eating the rich and I can go back to a
 simple life of playing with my cat, making video games, writing poetry (bad
 poetry, but I like it) and hanging out with my friends.
 
 gotta build the social infrastructure to get through this phase first, though.
