Programmer, Gamer, and rarely a Youtube creator.
I enjoy modding games and hope to make my own game one day.

Happy new year, all!

Can't promise I'll post any more frequently than I currently do, but I still exist and I'm still working on projects I love.

This is why I will never, ever, take a penny for posting. The incentive structure is absolutely wild. 12-15 hours a day to make cash as a paid Twitter influencer?

No thank you. I’ll be posting 12-15 hours a day for the RIGHT reasons (my brain is broken from all the Internet).

Never mind, I've determined Rust to be the worst language ever.

I can't believe there's no ++ operator :(

Alright, initial thoughts on Rust:
-Type system is a bit fiddly, it's a bit difficult to tell if I have to unwrap something, or change the variable type to something else (iterating through a vector with an index can't be done with an integer, has to be done with usize variable)

I know it's pretty late in the year, but I'm going to give Rust a try with Advent of Code.

I've heard good things about Rust and it's never too late to try out a new language.

Recently saw www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpGS... and was reminded of the time I was a teenager and saw Sethbling's first contraption that used spawners with Time:0 and I thought it was the coolest thing ever.

Limitations breed creativity if given enough time to experiment.

Github perhaps needs to update its Actions tab, I've got a private repo I want to set up a simple runner for, and nowhere on the actions page (or the Actions section in Settings) does it mention you have a limited number of minutes per month.
It's 2000, which you shouldn't really hit, but still.

Me: Why is this file that I know I am writing to showing up blank?
Stackoverflow: Have you called file.flush();?
Me: Oh.

There's gotta be an alternate of the "two hard things in programming, cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-ones", but for threading, file operations, and a third thing.
