Reasons you can't kill yourself or disappear into the system void: a. New Pokémon game comes out soon. b. I'm sure there's a book you still want to read or whatever? c. You owe people art and that would be very unprofessional. d. You can always try again. e. You're friends would be sad. -👾

to anyone considering buying GTA 6 who happens to own a gaming capable PC: fill your steam cart with 80 dollars of games from the steam summer sale, and see how you feel about that price after.

If you pay $80 USD for a game that doesn't even have a disc in the box with inaccessible DLC-locked shops and missions and generic un-emergent gameplay that hasn't evolved in any meaningful way since 2008 made by a union-busting super employee crunchin' company then you deserve to be swindled tbh

Impulse buy

4 panel comic.
Panel 1: forg in front of a building that has a sign on top reading “shop”. He goes “oh”.
Panel 2: he steps through the door, we see him coming in from the inside. There’s a pink blob as the shopkeeper in the foreground with a tiny white hat. Forg asks “can I have one milk?” The shop owner says “no”.
Panel 3: the pink shopkeeper behind his counter that also reads shop. He tells forg “but I have something else for you”. Forg says “oh?”
Panel 4: forg is now leaving the shop again, he’s wearing a big cowboy hat. We see now that the sign on the shop actually says “hat shop”. We never saw the entire sign and I suppose forg didn’t either!

What a guy

4 panel comic

Panel 1: a wizard in blue robe and white beard sitting with small forg at a desk behind the computer. “Click, click” is the sound of the mouse to be heard
Panel 2: close up on the computer screen. There’s a green check mark and a full loading bar on it. From off screen someone, probably the wizard, says “boom, there it is”.
Panel 3: forg is left behind alone at his desk. There’s an open door in the background. Forg says “thanks installation wizard” and a little pink heart appears, showing his affection.
Panel 4: we see now that the wizard has already left the house after a job well done. He replies to forg watching him go from his window: “it’s what I do”

new blog post incoming

Type out the code

Back in the day I read one of Zed Shaw's "Learn X the hard way" courses (I think it was his C++ course) and he began the course with a disclaimer that said something like "do not copy and paste the examples; type them out" because he believed strongly that doing so improved your comprehension of the material.

These days he recommends something even stronger:

> The best way to do this is when you complete an exercise delete what you did and do it again, but try to use your memory. If you get stuck then look at the exercise for clues, but try your best to recreate what you just did from memory. At first you'll be constantly referring to the exercise and the code, but eventually you'll get to where you can do it on your own. This will also improve your ability to remember more code, your ability to summarize how something works, and generally improve your skills faster than if you did it once and moved on.

This is known as the generation effect in cognitive psychology: the active generation of new content improves comprehension compared to passive consumption of the same material. Or as Richard Feynman put it: "What I cannot create, I do not understand".

I'm not a researcher, but I would still like to add my own spin as a lay programmer on why I believe this phenomenon matters for improving programming ability, even in the age of agentic coding. In fact, I think it's even more important now than ever for people to reacquaint themselves with this "ancient wisdom" because otherwise we'll end up with an entire generation of programmers wondering how anyone ever programmed without the help of a coding agent.

In this post I will lay out the case for why you should do the drudgery of occasionally typing out the code, character-by-character, as best as possible from memory. That doesn't mean that you should never use developer tools of any sort to accelerate the coding process, but you also need to occasionally do the boring parts by hand and by memory
