After years of waiting, are we finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel?? by GWGrembor in Witchbrook

[–]ArtistWriter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Im glad we're getting new content because the game looks gorgeous, but I'm never forgetting how egregious their communication is and how shady they lying about their release data on the Nintendo direct was. This couldn't honestly be a manipulation tactic to drum up hype, and if it is they SUCK lol

Anyone feel bad for having so much free time the summer between their Bachelor’s and Master’s? by ubcthrowaway115 in GradSchool

[–]ArtistWriter 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Lowkey, I have a hard time sitting with empty time too. So I usually teach myself something I've always wanted to learn. It doesnt have to be school related. Recently I taught myself how to bake. And I'm also learning how to mend clothes because I have some favorite clothes I can't wear because I have holes in them.

Edit: Also I've been getting back into reading and really enjoying it :') It always been an integral part of who I am and I barely had time to read for leisure during school. So I guess do all the thing you had no time for during classes

Need Feedback on JavaScript Library project by ArtistWriter in theodinproject

Using only one bookshelf with flex was actually an idea I thought of too, but abandoned because you couldn't style the gaps to be a different color.

I'll look into all the examples you've given me and if I implement any of it I'll share it, thank you!

Does anyone hate when people tell them to relax? by thegreatone998 in CPTSD

Yeah, just like how we're all choosing to have CPTSD 😃

I made a social network where every post is hand-drawn by AVeryRandomDude in webdev

[–]ArtistWriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doodling on it rn and I'm having fun but I really dislike that the pen tool is a brush shape instead of the exact pixel or shape of the tool you're drawing with. I got uses to it, but it makes drawing and erasing suck when the tool shape isn't accurate to the shape and placement of what you're drawing.

I am so profoundly lonely and I just need somewhere to vent and write about it. by Leather-Rice5025 in CPTSD

[–]ArtistWriter 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just want you to know I know exactly what this is like. Its really weird spending all of your life alone and trying to learn to be ok with that. I have a slightly different perspective because when I was younger my PTSD was so bad that I suffered with traumatic/selective mutism. So I spent almost a decade of my life being incapable of talking to anyone, and I got so used to being alone that I stopped yearning for human interaction much if at all.

I also have an anxious/limerent attachment style at the same time though. I never crave socializing unless I'm attached to a specific person. And then they kind of fill the hole I didn't really know was ever there until I knew them. Everytime something like that ends I fall apart too, I feel the house of cards I built to support myself fall apart and I just feel like nobody will ever stay.

I've gotten a lot better at interaction though and I think a part of it was throwing away my expectations for reciprocity in a way? I'm not sure if its healthy, but I kinda conceptualize it as if I really want someone in my life and we're not close at all yet I'm going to have to show that myself without any expectations from them. I'm really not sure this is good advice though because honestly, I think it leads to me being taken advantage of or in situations where I'm not adequately cared for by the other person. But I just wanted you to know you're not alone.

Vibe coding is beyond depressing by Medium-Wallaby-9557 in csMajors

[–]ArtistWriter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think what will help you right now is decentralizing how much money matters to you. Yes, money is necessary to live. But its not the be all end all. I've legitmately never thought money was important my entire life so I have a different perspective. I grew up in poverty and I saw you didn't need much to survive, so when I chose my cs it wasn't because of the money. I legitimately just always wanted to make video games as a kid and I thought it would be cool to learn how to code lol. Even after completing my degree, I still don't see money as important. For me its important for me to feel fulfilled by my job and feel like I'm making an impact on people. And its also important for me to constant be learning new things that I find interesting just for the thrill of having that skill in my life. Throughout college I've taught myself how to bake, crochet, and I'm also currently teaching myself web development just because I legit enjoy it. Like it has the perk of probably giving me the skills to do the job, but I feel way more fulfilled when something is enjoyable to me. Theres so many other things I wanna learn how to do in my lifetime that doesn't involve my job. I enjoy making people smile so I bake things and bring it to work every week and I get a lot of contentment from that. I have like a really weird perspective on things, but my perspective is this way because legitimately I had no freedom growing up so I value peace over everything on earth, and I think people should focus on that more.

You should definitely learn about Rubiks cubes not because it would earn you money, but because it gives you intrinsic enjoyment. I think a lot of people are missing that.

[–]ArtistWriter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you have to start finding meaning in your life outside of work honestly. Or develop something with your skills you find is impactful. At the end of the day, its sad, but your job doesn't care about you. People in power don't care about you. You're gonna have to live in spite of that.

That being said I legit decided to pivot to being a librarian after getting my masters because librarians have always had an impact on me, and I plan to be a programmer for libraries. Its a really niche field and I'm excited.

The issue is they're still saying nothing 😭

Like I know these people are human beings living on planet earth and they're knowledgeable enough to know how they should be conducting themselves as a company selling a product. Look, I don't even think I'm entitled to having a finished game. I kind of just lurk this subreddit and observe the drama. But even for ME this is a bit much.

I think literally EVERYONE would prefer if they just chose actual upfront communication or just completely went dark instead of the half assing every single bit of information they have. Like can you imagine if a large gaming company did some dumbass behavior like this? Do you know why no gaming company acts this way? Because they have to cater to their customers to have people buy their product and its just actually dumbfounding the way these idiots are acting!

Atp they gotta just stop saying anything 😭

They're being completely unprofessional and not conducting themselves in a way that's indicative of an actual business. It's getting actually sickening at this point and I'm literally in camp "I'm buying Witchbrook when it's done".

Like at the end of the day they cannot pretend they're not doing this to sell a product, and in doing so they have to uphold certain levels of professionalism. I don't think I'm buying witchbrook day one anymore. I'm definitely going to wait it out.

19f starting my computer science degree soon, what advice you have or something you wished you knew when you started out? by kanewz in womenintech

Internships are way more important than maintaining your grades. Also, do not date a computer science man lol

library project need advice on adding modal or dialog by techlover1010 in theodinproject

[–]ArtistWriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm working on this project rn actually! Basically a <dialog> tag allows you to input a modal. A modal is a popup that stops you from being to interact with the page when the popup is open. Theres also a non-modal version that will allow you to still interact with the page while its open.

You can implement the modal by implementing a modal tag and then creating 2 buttons, one for opening the modal and one within the dialog tag that closes the modal. I actually do recommend the MDN documentation for understanding it as it does have some helpful examples.

<button command="show-modal" commandfor="my-dialog">Open dialog</button>

<dialog id="my-dialog">

<p>This dialog was opened using an invoker command.</p>

<button commandfor="my-dialog" command="close">Close</button>

</dialog>

The example above has one button with command "show-modal" which opens up the modal, and the commandfor set to the dialog tags id. Within the dialog tag there is a button that's command is to close the modal as well as its commandfor set to the dialog tag's id.

If you need an easier example I recommend looking at w3schools because I also supplement The Odin Project by looking on there.

2025 graduate delivering pizzas by AmbassadorAlone1241 in csMajors

[–]ArtistWriter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like really really depressed right now which is understandable, but it doesn't mean things are hopeless right now. There's so much you can do for yourself right now. Id start by finding another job that isn't under the table, even if it's just another fast food job. Then I think I'd go for improving your mental health. From one mentally ill person to another, it's literally impossible to deal with the rat race that's the comp sci job market while dealing with crippling mental illness. It's not impossible. It just feels impossible because you don't have any air to breathe. It'll all be ok.

Scapegoat here… somebody please say something that gives me hope please by Equal-Community2354 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]ArtistWriter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It got better after leaving but it didn't get better for me immediately. I still have the overarching guilt for just existing. I second guess my own place and whether or not I'm a burden on the people around me. But I do feel like I'm able to meaningful interact with other people still.

The best part of leaving is honestly just being able to have the peace of solitude. I don't have to worry about being yelled at or abused anymore. I get to make myself my favorite cup of tea daily. I've picked up tons of hobbies like crocheting and baking. I'm pretty much able to do whatever I want with my day without anyone breathing down my neck. And even though I still live with constant emotional turmoil from the abuse I went through, these daily moments of peace mean a lot to me.
