Pretty horrendous consultation event: Highlights included being yelled at because 'we are providing public EV charging but also that no one will use it' and being told i have no professional integrity because I will not do traffic surveys that we don't need to do, out of my own personal pocket.

Going to spend the rest of today at an event through 2000 tonight being yelled at by angry locals who 'aren't NIMBYs against housebuilding, but are just against building here'. The cognitive dissonance has already given me a headache.

Did my Amazon get hacked, or did I just get forcefully signed up for Prime without my consent?

Some code: 
# protected void SetPixelState(ref Color[] pixel, bool state)
#		{
#			var c = state ? PIXEL_COLOUR_ON : PIXEL_COLOUR_OFF;
#			for (int x = 0; x < PIXEL_DIMENSION; ++x)
#			{
#				for (int y = 0; y < PIXEL_DIMENSION; ++y)
#				{
#					if (!ChamferCornerItem(x, y, PIXEL_DIMENSION))
#					{
#						pixel[(y * PIXEL_DIMENSION) + x] = c;
#					}
#				}
#			}
#		}

Some code: # protected void SetPixelState(ref Color[] pixel, bool state) # { # var c = state ? PIXEL_COLOUR_ON : PIXEL_COLOUR_OFF; # for (int x = 0; x < PIXEL_DIMENSION; ++x) # { # for (int y = 0; y < PIXEL_DIMENSION; ++y) # { # if (!ChamferCornerItem(x, y, PIXEL_DIMENSION)) # { # pixel[(y * PIXEL_DIMENSION) + x] = c; # } # } # } # }

@martincostello.com I only seem to be iterating and replacing things in it, but shouldn't that have not affected the main array reference?

Unrelated, another Twitch Rivals MCC and yet again they didn't bother making the stage step free.

I mean it was presumably important enough to have learned and deliberately used the ref keyword in possibly the one and only time I ever have, but why 8 year ago me, why?

I'm converting a pile of C# I wrote like 8y ago into GDScript and I deliberately passed an array with a ref keyword into a method but arrays (I thought) were passed by reference anyway so why would I have done that?
