I was thinking about streaming my playthroughs of gaming classics I haven't played yet. Anyone have any suggestions?

So much of who I am today - as a creative, aspiring game dev, and programmer - came from early mornings and late nights hunched in front of my family's old tube TV playing Donkey Kong Country on my dad's SNES.

Thank you so much, Rare, for being an irreplaceable cornerstone of my childhood.💙💛

This was a pleasant addition to my week! Definitely gotta start streaming again soon.
Earlier this week, I received an email from Twitch, letting me know that I now have access to affiliate feature to help me kickstart my streaming adventure.

Preserving games is at the heart of what we do.

We know our community cares just as deeply about keeping games alive forever, physically and digitally.

Bumping this. Definitely has some good recommendations if you're trying to move away from Duolingo. Should have some time to try them all out now that school's wrapped up.

Sooo... I was planning on making a post about my streak with some quirky caption asking y'all to help me reach a year but uhh... any recommendations on free/cheap resources for learning Japanese? Preferably something human-first

Looking back on the Nintendo Direct yesterday, and for what could've very well been the last Direct we get that solely focuses on the Switch, I feel like it was really good. It laid out a considerably healthy launch schedule for the rest of the year while teasing some things we can expect next week

You should be using JavaScript sets more often

Now in all browsers and Node - these 7 new set methods are key for when trying to compare two arrays or sets of data.
New JavaScript Set Methods const set1 = new Set(['wes', 'kait']); const set2 = new Set(['wes', 'scott']); Difference Elements in set2 but not in set1 set2.difference(set1) > ['scott'] Intersection Elements that exist in both sets set1.intersection(set2) > ['wes'] Symmetric Difference Elements in either set, but not both set1.symmetricDifference(set2) > ['kait', 'scott'] Union All elements from both sets set1.union(set2) > ['wes', 'kait', 'scott'] Is Disjoint From True if sets share no elements set1.isDisjointFrom(set2) > false Is Subset Of True if all elements are in other set set1.isSubsetOf(set2) > false Is Superset Of True if it contains all other's elements set1.isSupersetOf(set2) > false

Made a few pixel art animation tutorials. Figured I'd add my newer goblin to it and post it here for any newcomers who would benefit from a simple and digestible frame-by-frame tutorial! Please let me know if this is helpful! =]
