I'm a programmer who likes games. Developer for RPG Sessions and open source UI team developer at Ionic. My views are, regrettably, my own. Sorry about that.

I'm really impressed with how great of a job Bluesky does at nuking bots. I'm sure the other site could have done it too, but they inflate the narcissists' perceived impression of himself so he lets him hang around

Forgive the earnest post here, but one year ago this week, Global Tetrahedron took over The Onion. We've since brought back the paper and ONN, dramatically increased revenue, and hired more writers and artists. But most importantly, as other places debased themselves, we refused to bend the knee.

Really enjoying using Obsidian for note taking. The plugin economy there is wild, people have done some really cool things that _just work_ with markdown. Like the Excalidraw plugin or an entire markdown-based Kanban board. Pretty cool stuff! #anythingbutjira

Another day another feature 💪 Love playing with #godot for RPG Sessions. This time it's a minimal image editor for cropping portrait images or making them into tokens more suitable for a map. I got to play with shaders a *lot* here!

It's been 2 years since we asked the @nytimes.com to improve their trans coverage, meet with trans community leaders, and hire trans journalists. Why won't they meet with trans leaders?

Honestly, the #godot UI control system is such a pleasure to work with. It's a lot like working with CSS, you just gotta get a little creative and it can do anything you want

I've been having so much fun with #godot and I can't wait to show what I've been working on, I just can't right now because it's in a secret phase and some people follow me for whom the secret would be ruined. Just know that I'm still at it, unlike a lot of other hobbies I've picked up in the past

Now that net neutrality is dead, AT&T can do all those cool things they said they were gonna do for customers if only net neutrality didn't exist. Right? Right??

Every time I hear somebody downplaying Y2K I think about the many people who spent a lot of time making sure it actually wasn't a big deal. "If you do everything right, nobody will be sure you've done anything at all"

DAMMIT NPR. I spent nine months upgrading over TEN THOUSAND desktops at a F500 client. The grand total was over SEVENTY THOUSAND applications upgraded. Y2K "didn't live up to the hype" because the industry busted ass to duct tape everything first.

Had to get a passport-style photo taken at a Walgreens in the US and a weird guy walked past and said "hell yeah white boy you take that picture" and I laughed for a full minute. I can tell I'm still fighting not to laugh in this but it's probably not too obvious right. Do I need to retake this

Indescribably poor passport style photo of me, hbomberguy

The @ionic.io VS Code extension now supports migration to #Angular 19 and will also help upgrade any peer dependencies in your project. After migration you can click Project > ... and choose any of the migrations to Signal Inputs, inject DI, built-in control flow and more.

I've been following a tutorial for #godot and it's just a really nice game engine. It's like somebody sanded off the rough parts from game engines I've used in the past. I'm only currently doing 2D stuff, so maybe for 3D it's harder, but man it's fun. I know I'm late to the Godot game, I'm sorry.

I've been playing Dungeon Clawler since it released on iOS and it's a really great game. Who knew a claw machine roguelike would be so much fun?
