I tell myself I'll die from the heavy metal contamination in chocolate before I develop Type 2 diabetes.

Which doesn't make me feel better about it. Time to cheer myself up with a hot chocolate!

I got a ton of hot chocolate as present for Christmas. Weight loss plans postponed yet again.

Accessibility and i18n as first class citizens, not afterthoughts

Need more animated flame torch gifs and under construction pictures.

It's ridiculous that they restrict it. Fortunately the list of qualifying conditions is really, really long, and I have like 5 of them, for better or worse.

There should be an amendment to remove presidential pardons altogether. Whatever reason they had to have that originally outlived it's usefulness.

Hah, at work we have a lot of trouble saying react router 7 too. I didn't really enjoy pre-remix RR much, which makes it even harder.

It's Remix in my heart of hearts too.

Now that the Cloudflare vite plugin is in a good spot, CF +RR7 combo is so sweet. And the only thing missing are the CF plugin needing to support a few more things like auxiliary workers.

RR7 is in a pretty good spot though. I don't find myself wishing for a lot more even when looking at the other frameworks.

In a lot of cases I wish it stopped at a point in time (like a lot of newer React features integrated just make it worse, but the good parts are still there).

Excited to see what it is in 7 years. Make sure to time it with Hades 3 and Metroid Prime 5.

The first needle upgrade is somewhat early into the game. (Like 25-30 percent through?). Did you miss it?. I got my first mask upgrade like 60 percent into the game though. I probably missed a bunch lol.

Last I checked Bill Gates didn't have any official influence. RFK does.

Otherwise no one would give a shit what he thinks or says.

Not an oil spill but now I'm thinking we SHOULD declare oil as woke since it makes rainbows in water.

Solar and wind do not.

Easy choice for anti woke people. They should ban oil, obviously.

Agreed. I'm sure Silksong will be great, but it won't be E33 great. And that's okay. There's plenty of space for many great games.

Thank you so much!

And by relic of the past, we were already having these arguments between Java devs and C/C++ or VB devs in the 90s....

A mouse just went and attacked the researcher. It was named Luigi.

Nah it tracks. Lots of rich people with cars that are just for just and never used.

Now I want to build my entire app using only MSW to do all the rendering somehow.

A lot of people think of Max as a Claude Code subscription since for us it's the major difference :)
