Knight Lore for the BBC Micro was visually ported by my schoolfriend Paul Proctor. No source or data was provided by Ultimate, he had to figure it all out by himself - and fit the entire game into 32KBytes! Here's the game assembling from the original source code, with only 21 bytes free!

I've had many ask me "How should I learn Git?"
After all, it's the industry standard in code backups and history. Surely there must be good guides?
Well, I struggled to find one I liked for newcomers...
So we made our own! 🎉
Check it out, let me know what you think!

With "Git: A Guide to Greatness", you'll learn everything there is to know about Git, the ubiquotous version control system for software development.
The first chapter is out, and the next will closely follow. 👇

A few years ago when I was troublingly deep into Elite Dangerous (flight stick, throttle, the lot) I used an EQ to make it sound like Spotify was playing in my ship's cockpit, and had this moment where a song perfectly synced up with a hyperspace jump.

The GitHub #Copilot code generation instructions has saved me "edit-time" afterwards.
In an #Angular context this is useful to automatically prompt Copilot to use "Modern Angular" APIs with each request.
For more information about instructions see code.visualstudio.com/docs/copilot...

Recording of yesterday's porting stream is now up at youtu.be/bbWcGAOsbIE. We nearly got to feature completeness (modulo SVG support), and even added some features along the way! You can find the resulting project (which still needs a bunch of love) over at github.com/jonhoo/dings.

Thanks very much I appreciate the word of support, but do note that I have no professional obligation to share material on Twitter. I was on Twitter for almost 20 years sharing information for free. My account remains and I may return when the Nazis leave

Accessibility time for #picotron Jetpac Defenders.
Added auto-fire option so holding fire fires continuously. Much easier on a controller (as opposed to keyboard) & I know some people (such as Cathy at indiegamerchick.com) get hand pain from repetitive firing.
All suggestions welcome
