Just submitted my first bounty PR. Waited 3+ weeks to hear anything back from maintainers.
Jumped in their discord and politely asked for a review.
Maintainers said, "tomorrow".
Thank them for their time
Waited an extra 3 days, asked again. Maintainers ignore me in Discord but happily tend to everyone else's PR
Get tired of waiting, being ghosted

My colleagues are really addicted to Pokémon. They took their lunch break at 10:00 to go to shop because the pokémon cards are restocked today at 10:00. Now half of the team eats their lunch while working cuz their lunch break is already used lol
Also, the company doesn't even measure the breaks. They usually take multiple smoke breaks totalling over 1h each day. Nobody complains about that. Idk why they suddenly care about the duration of their lunch break2 -

we all been there, if not, you're doing it wrong or not doing it at all. Either way, this time around it was Spotify's API. I had this great shit cooked I took down a while back and decided to get it back up because fuck why not so i put it online and BAM! No track preview playing, audio analysis missing and a feature I've busted a vessel to implement was utterly broken. I was very proud of that one btw, it generated color palettes from user taste in an actually meaningful way, no random shit, like, I almost got bald grasping the theory behind it... But I digress...
So I cloned that stupid project and checked some shit out and BAKABANG! Spotify deprecated all the endpoints and response fields I actually needed and only they had that shit FTP.... So I've noticed they still had their Embed API running... Hmmm hehehe.... Wrote a fucking module that used it for playing my tracks, so yeah, now I have playable tracks again... Illegally,might I add, since I'm not displaying the god awful banner their embedAPI fucks you with... The audio features thou, that's a mess cuz I now need to do the fucking audio analysis on top of that fucking embed API and FUCK my heart out figuring out a way to make it snappy without an actual server cuz yes, it's a SPA... fuck -
FUCK U FUCK U MY DAY WENT FINE UNTIL I ATE MY FLAN AND IT RURNED OUT FREEZED SO ITS NOT GOOD ANYMORE AAAAAA FUCK U3

Companies these days have this weird fetish where they take all the best nerds with the best grades from colleges and then only accept those.
It's now the opposite of what it used to be. No humility, no 'average Joe'. That stuff belongs to the 90's, it seems. Now we have a bunch of pink unicorn overachievers and the rest of the people just can't catch a break. lol15 -
There are exactly three variations of the % symbol:
% percent, 100
‰ per mille, 1000
‱ permyriad, 10000
and per cent mille, 100000, doesn’t have a symbol anymore, just an abbreviation: pcm
We can’t even go into the other direction and reduce the number.
per deca, 10, could be % without the second circle, like °/ but it doesn’t exist as one character.2 -
Got hands-on with algebraic data types for the first time ever while studying F# today. I can see the draw, but I don't really give a shit. Why? Cus 99% of the classes I'm going to work with on a daily basis are still gonna be
DatabaseReadWriteBaseImplementation2 {
sequentialIntegerID: string

Have you ever done a programming language/stack switch in your career? And how do you defend that if you don't have experience in it? Let's say you worked 4 years in Java and now you want to move to C# .NET. I know this has been answered before. lol
Employers are always whining that I don't have experience in it, so it's not a match. This is what happens when you have an HR dumbo as your first interviewer.
- they are both OOP
- they are both compiled + interpreted (JVM and Bytecode vs .NET runtime vs MSIL)
- very similar syntax, data type ecosystem, etc
Clients refusing you because recruiter says "oh it's not a match 'cause he doesn't have the 4 years .NET you asked for".
Sigh.22 -
OK, so Chatgpt is ditching the EM dashes. Sad, because that's how we easily could recognize the idiots. Also it's not new at all to let Chatgpt drop the EM dashes as been stated in article. I have a very detailed analysis about my writing and it copies it perfectly. So, they're selling us a placebo. Idiots. Also, for high quality information they relied on 1900's books? All the shit that came after that is a bullshit indeed. Not surprised...

Hi y'all! I got question, for my engine map format (the map editor will be blender/blockbench) should I just use a GLTF that contains every node and extras for light and custom properties or code a blender plugin that exports a TOML like:
# === MAP ===
name = "E1M1"
description = "At Doom's gate"
# --- Objets ---
[[objects]]
path = "assets/models/tree01.obj"
position = [10.5, 0.0, -3.2]
rotation = [0.0, 90.0, 0.0] # pitch, yaw, roll in degrees
scale = [1.0, 1.0, 1.0]
[[objects]]
path = "assets/models/coin_gold.obj"
position = [5.0, 1.0, 2.5]
rotation = [0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
scale = [1.0, 1.0, 1.0]
[[objects]]
path = "assets/models/rock_large.obj"
position = [-2.3, 0.0, 4.8]
rotation = [0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
scale = [1.0, 1.0, 1.0]
# --- Static lights ---
[[lights]]
type = "point" # "point", "directional", "spot"
position = [0.0, 5.0, 0.0] # spot or point
direction = [0.0, -1.0, 0.0] # spot or directional
color = [1.0, 0.9, 0.7] # RGB, 0.0 to 1.0
intensity = 1.0
radius = 10.0 # influence radius
angle = 45.0 # angle for spot
[[lights]]
type = "directional"
direction = [1.0, -1.0, 0.0]
color = [0.8, 0.8, 1.0]
intensity = 0.6
# --- Spawn points (user-added triggers) ---
[[spawn_points]]
name = "PlayerStart"
position = [0.0, 0.0, 5.0]
rotation = [0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
[[spawn_points]]
name = "EnemySpawn01"
position = [15.0, 0.0, -3.0]
rotation = [0.0, 180.0, 0.0]10 -
https://static.molodetz.nl/dr.menti... and https://static.molodetz.nl/dr.menti... are updated.
- Sorted DATE DESC.
- Removed duplicates.
- Added multiple mentions in one comment.
As requested by @SoldierOfCode and @Lensflare.
Around every 5-7 minutes the files will be updated with new data. Could speed this up actually.
You can find source code at: https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...
