 Is my formatting pretty or does it make you angry?
screenshots of C and Lua code that have strange formatting. The style is designed such that the readers eyes "flow" across the code like the gradual descent of water down a sloping riverbed, following a logical progression from top left to bottom right (generally) while returning to the left side whenever a new operation is performed or something is repeated.  This particular picture is of a simple if check:  if a creature's rank is equal to "four" or "two", then the creature is a rare monster type. Otherwise, they are not a rare monster type. Lua code to determine whether or not a character in a video game is available to be ambushed by a randomly generated monster.  There are several checks applied, checking things like "is the character sitting down" or "are they underwater", in which case a message is printed to the log and no further action is taken.  If all of the checks pass, and the character is free to be ambushed, then it runs the "spawnAndAttackPlayer()" function. A long string of "if" statements checking whether individual bits in a very small data structure are set. There's nine of them total, and they are arranged in a grid - this project was for a tic-tac-toe game, where there are nine total squares to play in. Setting up some location variables for a player unit. It starts by setting an X, Y, Z, and O for orientation value to a player's current location. Then it steps through and sets them to more accurate values. The reason for this ordering is so that if the function to find the more accurate value fails, it can fall back on the player's current location instead.  The interesting formatting is due to the layout of the "set" operations - they are ordered in a two dimensional grid rather than a top-to-bottom list like how most people would organize it.

 "what are we doing? Rearranging furniture on the titanic!"
"what are we doing? Rearranging furniture on the titanic!"  Ha! That's a great expression—captures that feeling of futile busywork while something much bigger looms.  Is this a philosophical musing, or are you venting about something specific that's feeling like deck chairs territory right now?  what do you think?  Given what I know about you, I'd guess you're venting about something specific—probably a project or codebase where you're being asked to polish details while some fundamental architectural issue or looming deadline makes it all feel pointless.  Though it could also just be a Monday mood. What's sinking?  the winter is warmer than usual  Ah, the existential version then—climate change as the iceberg, and here we all are debating... whatever feels trivial by comparison.  It's a hard thing to sit with. The scale of it makes most daily activity feel like rearranging furniture. And yet life continues to demand that we arrange the furniture anyway.  Is the warm winter hitting you particularly hard this year, or just one of those moments where the cognitive dissonance surfaces?
