It's a good idea to practice getting places without gmaps, after having
studied the map at home.
Just incase you need to get somewhere that you don't want to bring your phone
to.

just made a game for GGJ in Godot and I have to agree. Godot is so
frustrating, but one thing I have to concede is that once you get your head
around it the GUI part is actually incredibly powerful.
My next game I'm going to make in Raylib, and if the UI bit proves too
difficult I'll probably end up back at Godot.

║ The best tip I have for people new to Linux is every time you solve a problem, │
║ put the solution in a script. In addition, put the operations necessary to │
║ undo the operation you just performed into a separate script (or function in │
║ the same script) │
║ │
║ It's not hard. It's very easy. Its basically just typing things into a text │
║ document instead of entering them one-by-one in your terminal. But now if you │
║ ever need to solve the same problem twice, you just need to look through all │
║ the scripts you've written instead of trying to relearn how to fix the thing │
║ you're working on. │
║ │
║ Plus, if you ever need to disable what you did, well there it is, you're good │
║ to go. You can use chatGPT for things like text parsing or whatever, like "hey │
║ can you write me a sed command that does this exact thing that I'm going to │
║ enumerate and spell out for you" followed up by "that didn't quite work, the │
║ desired behavior was this, but when I ran the script provided it did this" │
║ boom you're a Linux administrator now, heres your rubber duck. │

║ Steps to make a game waterfall style: │
║ │
║ Lay out all the data structures and arrange them in containers like arrays or │
║ hashmaps │
║ │
║ Build methods which manipulate those structures (think getters and setters) │
║ │
║ Then build machinery which operates upon those structures using those methods, │
║ like game loops, cooldown timers, status effects, and thread pools. │
║ │
║ Then develop a way to present it to the player using UIs, visuals and │
║ graphics, narratives, sound, etc. This will probably involve implementing your │

║ │
║ By developing your game in this order, you will DESIGN the systems first, and │

║ instead of losing your motivation by learning new tools like game engines or │
║ 3D modeling systems, which aren't useful unless you already have a game. │

always work on your game / mod.
your work will outlast you. your time spent in a state of pleasure will
sustain you.
sometimes there's not a choice. sometimes you need to play, and that's okay.
to play is natural, it's one of the first things humans do.

If you're writing a bash script, you should never hard-code file locations.
Instead, put them in a variable at the top of your script, so they're easy to
find when people need to configure your script or move files around.
It's like a config file built INTO the script itself. Just change the
variables, they're at the top with comments.

I've read about half of "No Shortcuts: Organizing for Power in the New Gilded
Age" and it seemed useful. Maybe you'll find it useful, it explains a lot of
the challenges that other unions faced and has ideas for how tech in
particular might organize.
But I haven't applied anything in there or used it for praxis so YMMV

they could literally just be symlinks (shortcuts) to scripts that are in your

well, depending on what you're trying to accomplish, maybe processing 1/16th
of the audio file on 16 different threads would be faster. I guess it depends
on if you need context from earlier in the processing stage - if you do, then
you'd probably want to do 1/16th of the processing on each thread instead.
... hmmmm that doesn't look right, how about this:`[changes all the magic
number 16s to num_threads]

there's a difference between *designing software* and *using software*. Some
things can be made, and then saved for another day when their implementations
may be accomplished more ethically. It's okay to say "let's leave this as
'okay' and work on the next thing we've chosen."
Check out this piece of C code I wrote last night:
it doesn't compile, it's not finished, but I wrote it as-is
[pretend like it was called "main.c" instead of "main.txt" - had to change it
because mastodon thinks it's an invalid file]
[actually .txt didn't work, try .png]
[hmmm it realized it wasn't a valid png file, okay try screenshotting the
code, there's only 300 lines]
[sure glad there's only 300 lines]
[too bad it won't let you send .zip]
[won't let me name it main.png, presumably because they already have a
failed-verified version on their machine. will rename to main-src.png instead]

If you're packing for a long car ride, it's a good idea to put the things
you'll need first near the top of the bag, and the things you'll need at your
destination at the bottom.
if you don't know where you're going, well then just try and pack more of the
essentials.
for example sandwiches go at the top, because you're going to be eating them
en route.
however clean underwear should probably be near the bottom.
