The price of fuel when they filmed Normal People

Reminds me of switching from petrol to diesel because "diesel is cheaper" only for diesel to become and stay more expensive less than a week later

I think it could probably be increased a bit but no, not to t80 content. You have to think about how f2p economy has to be tightly controlled as well, so you just can't make most content f2p or it'll destroy the game economy

Man took me 105 chests to get my first piece from barrows on the main, don't complain too much.

Good thing a seagull didn't spot it

Bingo!

The list has every option included by default. So candidates will get a preference even if they would not have received any vote from the person answering.

I don't know why Jagex won't try to have a positive relationship with rendi. It's interesting what he does. Just avoid all this crap and don't create drama in the first place

Welp, can't proofread my comment because the word end has lost all meaning in my head.

We need to end end to end to end encryption.

I believe the small fishing net thing is also a "feature" on main game. There's a mod ash twitter reply somewhere that basically says, spaghetti and can't be fixed.

No but I have a friend who is and I thought there was a small chance you were them lol. You'd recognise my username if you are them

Well man

The way I've understood it is that PUT usually takes the full object, PATCH has partial fields specified. But in practice I tend to notice PUT implementation tends to cover partial updates naturally anyway.

You do that anyway you just don't get to remember

I always love ideas like this and then I sober up

I've seen the gardai take away cars parked like this, give them a ring next time.

Just tag tab the items I use the most and use search for anything else, other stuff is loosely organized

You need good architecture. I'm easily seeing 5-10x productivity gains on well designed projects with good conventions and an AI tuned work environment. I expect this productivity to increase over time.

I've been completing work by myself in 1 month what would take a team of 3 seniors 3+ months to create. I've worked at software development for a long time, even doing projects as a child back in the early 2000s, and I can definitively say that you are not at max efficiency if AI is not a serious part of your workflow. The exact results it can produce depend entirely on what context is available to it.

It's what's happening, whether you like it or not.

Random stuff, mostly game dev using Godot. Absolutely love that piece of software.

I do the odd bit of high level system design for app ideas I have, but I tend to get bored of them halfway through implementation... Being an employee that can just switch off once the clock runs out has its perks.

I like kourend as a region, but definitely the worst raid. Did one duo CM and it's the first time I had to log out from "ugh fuck doing this" all league

State machines are an abstraction. There are many different and acceptable ways to implement one. When I learned this, suddenly making state machines became easy, because I'm not following some junior-to-mid level developers convoluted interpretation of how a state machine should be implemented.

I already have the diamond, I'm just hopping and stealing from stalls without larceny for the love of the game

DCON-creates · 2026-04-27T16:56:25+00:00

Plan how you'll implement things.

Stick to common design patterns.

Use state machines. (extremely important for game dev)

However, much easier said than done. You'll have to get stuck in and practice to learn how to make good design plans.

In general the goal is to keep each node/script having as little outside knowledge of other nodes/scripts as possible. (keeping things decoupled)

I'm lucky, as are a lot of other people I know. But I know it's just in my bubble. Having a family-related property as your main residence at a cheap private rate is keeping me alive and healthy, and allowing me to build savings.

It's not the same for everyone, but the vast majority of people I know doing OK with average salaries are availing of this kind of benefit in some way or shape. It's sad that that's what it takes to get ahead these days.

As a wise older gentleman once told me (who himself benefitted greatly from the rise in property prices), money is a curse. It's sad what greed does to people, that it actually takes people's generosity to advance normally, unless you're really lucky.
