i believe that short form video is maybe one of the worst things people have ever come up with and it should be regulated at least as much as cigarettes

In my last job I made a small machine learning project for a hackathon at work. Met with the business guys after, we agreed it was just a fun experiment that added no real value. They still went ahead with making a full production version of it so they could advertise that they were using AI/ML.

This IOCCC winner entry (International Obfuscated C Code Contest) made me smile. The code draws the current moon phase to the console.

The cities in AC: Shadows outside of the castles feel like they were built with the same awful in-game tool they give you for plunking modular pieces around your hideout

My guess would be that when you click on a collision object it's placing the target_position up in the air so the NavigationAgent can't reach it. Have you tried replacing the "is_target_reached" call with a "is_navigation_finished" call, or rejecting the click if "is_target_reachable" is false?

When I lurk on Discord in the GD shaders section, I often hear how to convert from one space to another or back. Well, I've created a website, so that you can find that on the good old internet ^^

Using swatch textures means your texture footprint is practically zero.

Were you getting bored of my three trees and the ground plane? No problem as I've finally managed to get Makena's room into the engine.
Hope you like the comfy atmosphere. Surely nothing bad will happen.
Also flowy dithered curtains hello?

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.

Not much progress to share on my game project this week, instead focusing on searching for paying work. Back to the GDScript mines soon!

Tired of manually matching collision to a mesh in #GodotEngine? Or constantly creating new nodes with the built-in collision generation feature? I made an addon that automatically syncs collision with meshes, with lots of neat features. Grab it here: github.com/CozyCubeGame...

Circuit Burn dev update, week 3: For #screenshotsaturday this week, I have added weapon pickups to the game. So far it's got mines, a rocket launcher and a mortar, with more on the way.

DuckDuckGo image search is objectively worse than Google's, but it does have this feature which is nice (and will likely only get nicer as the web gets more and more overrun):
