That was me too, I definitely think Alfred + supplementary piano/music theory vids on YouTube was a decent path

Alfred's Basic Adult Piano Course: Lesson Book 1 By Willard A. Palmer, Morton Manus, and Amanda Vick Lethco. Piano Book. A beginning course for adults who prefer a chord approach. It teaches chords for both hands so that the student can play more th...

Depends what you mean by "play piano" exactly but I used Alfred's books: www.alfred.com/alfreds-basi...

With mostly consistent practice after 3-5 years I can read/learn/play some pieces and improv a little, but I was never super happy with where I got to (and I switched to Violin eventually)

YouTube video by TypedPixels Adding VIBES to my 2D bushcraft survival game

I've spent the holidays mostly obsessing over adding ~vibes~ to my JavaScript game

I just put up a new dev log if you'd like to see what I've been up to: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jTi...

The new HMR/Live Reload feature in #Angular is 🧑‍🍳💋

And now it works with @analogjs.org and @vite.dev 🔥

Chau before: works on my machine

Chau after: we need to build a minimal dependency graph between variables

Chau's weekend: 📉

'Tis the season for @analogjs.org

Trying to add water to my game, turns out it's pretty hard (especially when you suck at writing GLSL shaders)

feat(core): add change detection tracing service by eneajaho · Pull Request #58916 · angular/angular This will warn users when they are rendering too much based on the config they provide. Linked to #58540 It works somehow like this: // More than 10 change detections in 1 second triggers a warning...

Together with @Jean__Meche we've been cooking something delicious 🥘!

What if Angular warns you if you're running change detection too often [configurable] over a given period of time [configurable too] !?

Great to hear man, congrats

YouTube video by Joshua Morony Angular v19 is out!... and it changed my apps (significantly)

Angular v19 is the update I didn't know I needed. The level of boilerplate reduction in some cases is absurd www.youtube.com/watch?v=A820...

It has been updated for v19 now

YouTube video by TypedPixels My bushcraft survival game changed A LOT in 10 days

Spending more time than I probably should making games instead of doing my "actual" work... 🤷‍♂️

🔥 In Angular you can now have truly reactive component parameters via Signal inputs!

I can finally refactor these getters in my code!

Keep in mind that signal inputs are still in developer preview, so we are not yet following semver for updating their API.

Glad to see you're still playing with Angular, the community definitely needs people like you advocating for good SSR

I'm excited to get into it more (it's actually the topic of my vid next week)

My secret power is that I go on Twitter for a small specified time each day.

If I feel compelled to tweet something, I write it in a note.

Then later when it comes time to tweet it, I realise I don't want to deal with tweeting that shit anyway.

Hello David 👋

--cd-just-skipped: true;

We take a first look at the new @ syntax coming in Angular 17 and how it compares to the existing structural directive syntax for control flow (e.g. *ngIf, *... I've been using the new Angular control flow syntax for templates (it's good)

Has there ever been a greater relationship than Angular and @?

ChatGPT has finally delivered you the solution to a hard fought problem, do you:

1) Let it know the solution worked so it isn't left wondering

2) Realise LLMs aren't "left wondering"

3) ...still feel guilty for leaving it hanging anyway

As a primarily frontend developer I find it such a refreshing way to code.

Making games is cool and creative, so that's motivating - but you also face challenges you just don't really see in frontend, so it feels like a great way to grow too (e.g. I do *way* more in-depth TypeScript stuff in games)

Haven't quite finished this one yet - but currently listening to the audiobook narrated by Kevin Foley, it's absolutely brilliant. Maybe Ray Bradbury's writing suits audio well, because Fahrenheit 451 was my favourite audio book until this one.

Keeping a reactive/declarative download flow of state in your application can make things a lot more predictable - but placing too much importance on the rol... There was a flaw in my Angular mental model

One day I will post a video about declarative code on YouTube for the last time. But today is not that day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPNqFlVzZlw

Brilliant!
