Look what happens when developers actually put in effort to optimise for the hardware. Contrast to Pokémon Violet/Scarlet which runs like absolute garbage. Game Freak can’t even hide behind the “but it’s a multi-platform game” excuse. Kudos to Retro for doing it right.

I'm tired of explaining this, but here it goes: Why do *I* think more women aren't pursuing CS degrees? Let me start with a story about how I developed a love for everything tech.

Here I was thinking Ruby's `URI.parse` would be a good URL validation. Nope. "http:/.lol" is considered valid, as is "lmao:" and "blerp:/.derp:12345789" As is often the case: regular expressions to the rescue.

Digestive biscuits are underrated. They are so damn good.

Why do people buy tactical backpacks? I’m guessing it’s a similar thought process with buying pickup trucks.

When Thailand legalised marijuana they basically just deleted all laws against it. Now you can do basically whatever you want, including growing it on your roof.

@yadspi That in an effort to chase an algorithm, Youtubers are simply parroting each other in a rat race to manufacture drama. Not saying that their content is bad, but it's just redundant and is creatively bankrupt.

This was a good spot to work from, for a while. Then it was too distracting watching people enjoy the beach all day. Life is tough.

Piracy is important. If distributors and license holders aren't going to give consumers a fair shake, they deserve to have their entire catalog pirated as far as I'm concerned. It's all going to hell in a hand basket and I really don't care if those companies survive.
