Finally got to do a workout in the new garage gym. Haven’t lifted consistently with barbells since college. Needed to brush up proper form for squats, presses, and deadlifts. Didn’t die. Going to be a fun year of learning. Time for a sauna.

Adding more lanes cost a ton and doesn’t do anything to make traffic better. In fact it often makes traffic worse’s via induced demand. The only way to improve car traffic is to give travelers viable alternatives to cars like public transit, trains, and bicycles.

First holiday project complete. Installed the climbing wall for the kids so they can reach the monkey bars. Next up, power rack next to the sauna.

Anyone read this yet? Haven’t seen any reviews, but I always love some personally relevant game dev books.

Hey old school game dev mission and level designers, what toolset did you get started on?

I played with doom wads, but found Hammer editor by Valve to be the first one I went deep on. I never shipped any mod / maps, but it helped me pass design tests at multiple studios. I love me some BSP.

In the dark times before the internet my sister watched the VHS for this on repeat for a year.

What about this one...
