Icelandic Vision LabHello world! Elon Musk picking a twitter fight with Icelandic philanthropist and man of the year 2022 Haraldur Thorleifsson ended up being the final push that we needed, so now we are here on Mastodon. We don't know how any of this works, but follow us for posts on vision science, cognitive psychology, cognitive science, cognitive neuroscience, and stupid memes #VisionScience #CognitivePsychology #CognitiveScience #CognitiveNeuroscience #StupidMemes #ThanksForPointingOutHashtagsInComments

Creating a game in 10 mins VS 10 hours
In the face of this, this video hits really badly. I mean, it always did, but holy fuck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKUGwlFJAHw&ab_channel=MadKangaroo
Phil Fish "Japanese Games Just Suck"
Huh. I may think twice about referring to RPGs that come from Japan as "JRPGs" going forward, having read this: https://www.pcgamer.com/the-face-of-final-fantasy-doesnt-like-the-term-jrpg-once-considered-it-discriminatory/
In my mind, the most important aspect of your code should be its comprehensibility to others.
How you accomplish ensuring that comprehensibility is up to you, but ensure it you must.
Some ways I think about when I think about how to accomplish this:
- Lots and lots of code comments
- Simple, explicit interfaces
- Unit tests that describe and define the behavior of the thing. "Executable documentation"
I've been coding professionally since the early 2000s. I have used many different languages, some weakly typed, some strongly typed.
I have to be honest. I've encountered few bugs that were caused by incorrect types and far more bugs caused by overly complex interactions between code.
