This is who we're deporting while we're importing sex traffickers like the Tate brothers and white supremacists who are nostalgic for Apartheid.
I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.
She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

A Babson College student wanted to surprise her family for Thanksgiving. She was deported instead. - The Boston Globe
Any Lucia Lopez Belloza was at Logan to catch a flight to Texas when immigration authorities detained her as she was about to board the plane.

Been having one of those week where I initially wanted to fix A, but had to do B before, then C before B, etc. I'm currently digging myself into a yak-shaving hole so deep my best hope to reach A seems to be through a yak-shaving overflow.

I've been noodling with my own IDE! I made a Dear ImGui backend for the new StereoKit tech, and got carried away :)

Built-in cmake, with easy options for passing args when running!

There is a Japanese developer Inufuto who has created dozens of games and is porting them to as many obscure retro 8-bit computers as they can. Most of them have been ported to 100+ platforms:

I cleared Absolum which I've been playing for the past month. Really enjoyed the progression, it starts tight, very skill-based, ends up totally chaotic, somehow happily broken. I stuck to using the same character - barely tried other play styles. Great production value.

I thought it'd be fun to outline (literally) how much of a hack the custom UI in the recomp is. Anything surrounded by an outline is drawn using Dear ImGui and isn't rendered by the game.

I've been naturally tending toward using more ternary operators and writing more branchless code over time. I find it generally elegant and compact. But it's true that it's a little less easy to debug step into or to set breakpoints for.

C/C++: Looking for suggestion for a way to sensibly detect if an assert macro was defined to emit no code (e.g `#define IM_ASSERT(_EXPR) (void)0`) in order to report it in my config/build info blob. In a portable way. It doesn't need to be perfect, only generally reliable...
