That’s absolutely it, I have no idea what I’m aiming for, so I’m constantly pushing myself to a higher standard of something? Whilst also constantly feeling like I should know more

The thing I hate about imposter syndrome is what IF I am actually not good enough

I see you’re passing in some flooring data which you’ve named ‘flooringData’, would you like ‘wallingData’ for your wallpaper?

Rider is great because occasionally the suggested names come out with something absolutely ridiculous and it brings me so much joy

Thanks that’s really helpful, I’ll check them out!

Hollie @holliepage.bsky.social · 13d

Thanks! I’m more of a unity dev, but I was looking for general programming textbooks on architecture/systems. I’m self taught, so wanna read up on the deeper things which I might not necessarily learn by doing

Hollie @holliepage.bsky.social · 13d

Ah I was looking at this one also!

Hollie @holliepage.bsky.social · 13d

Clean architecture by Robert C Martin 👀 do you have any recs for me?

Hollie @holliepage.bsky.social · 14d

Hollie @holliepage.bsky.social · 14d

After years of programming, I’ve finally bought my first programming book! I usually learn by doing, so it’ll be interesting to see if I actually remember anything I read

time will tell 🤪

Hollie @holliepage.bsky.social · Jul 30

Am I insane for agreeing to use Godot for GMTK jam when I’ve literally never even opened Godot before?

I’ve been doing CV reviews for some programmers looking for their first industry role and I just got an updated draft after my feedback. Is this pride I’m feeling? What is this gooey happy feeling lol
