It is a purely ideological fork. Some people really didn't like that the Godot twitter account was posting explicitly leftist games (gamedevs with leftist politics? what a shock.) and then they started harassing the devs on github, got

I mean, that was kind of the idea behind the JVM, wasn't it? It's not a terrible idea.

What editor are you using to do this? I assume it's vim or emacs.

For certain games it's still borked. Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines is among my favorites and it's unplayable.

Not the OP, but it's extremely rude and unprofessional. Nitpicking a guy's college transcripts from 20 years ago? Come the fuck on. His experience and skills should have been enough, asking those dumbass questions is an insult, on

The article you post just says some gen z were able to take advantage of low mortgage rates in 2020. And in cheaper parts of the country. It doesn't mean anything for the overall socioeconomic condition

No, it doesn't. It just sends 1 ECHO_REQUEST packet. If this was sarcasm I could not detect it

I have no idea why that isn't standard practice in every codebase. I should be able to figure out your code without having to ask, or dig through issues or commit messages. Just tell me what it's for!

It's a catch-all term for people who are not mentally ill, but have different neurological characteristics from the norm. The most obvious example is autistics, but this would also include ADHD, people with sensory issues, etc.

It may interest you to know that Noodler's, as far as I know, is a one man operation. It's literally one guy making ink in his shed.

Also don't see how it's possible. EEE relies on permissive licensing, which lets you make a better, proprietary version that everybody switches to. Mastodon is AGPL. I suppose if Meta built a competitor that was so great it killed

Helix uses ropes for strings. Supposedly it's well suited to lots of little edits. I've been meaning to dive into the code, but all the issues marked 'good first issue' already have a PR waiting to be merged.

My personal interest would be in reading assembly for the sake of reverse engineering. So, maybe 6502 is not the best option for me. I'll take a look at those books, thanks.
