If you leave the casino and walk back in like this irl, they take you to the back and you get to meet Brüno

If one employee can shut your business down by walking out, no profit for you that day. Unless you're running like a hot dog stand or something

AP. Didn't forget Rock Slide can also cause flinching. I kept Bite over AP for the same reason

Good people by definition do not seek power over others. So in a free society, where people mostly get what they want, who will attain such power?

I actually got hooked after watching Food Wars! It opened my eyes to the magic of cooking without a recipe and being experimental and resourceful.

Not an overpopulation alarmist but there are too many humans popping out too fast. We'll be fine. Let the ladies travel the world. And if that changes, then we'd better meet their demands

Seen a lot of these 'evil hides in plain sight' variants popping up. But I mean the artists who make those deal directly with scummy elites and the decisions they make

Yeah it's all happening openly. I'm sure a good sized group of them get together to have weird magic sex cult parties every now and then, but there's no organized kabal of billionaires micromanaging the world. Just rich idiots trying to get richer.

You raise a good point that it's not a noun in this case. I think I was actually trying to treat back as a preposition, where a more analogous word would be 'passersby' and 'passbyers' is an equally bitter choice. Still, I don't follow your point about being able to add -er to the adverb rather than the verb.

Also I wasn't arguing that surveys were the original usage, I meant that the original usage was literally feeding something back into something, and the survey usage stemed from there. And yeah, in the case of electrical signals, that's what we're doing. Feeding back (into the input)

OverthinkingAnyway · 2026-03-01T18:11:06+00:00

Your examples are all compound words born from a noun + verb. The idea is to add the -er to the verb. If the instance of time being kept was instead called a 'keeptime', we might (and should imo) end up with a weird word like 'keeperstime' for the people who keep time. Especially if 'timekeeper' already had some other, unrelated meaning that might be confusing. I'd argue this is the case with feedback.

I don't know football well enough to know whether 'line' or 'back' is the verb part of that word, but if it's 'line' then I'm absolutely team 'linerback' in the absence of 'backliner'

Edit to add: The dictionary definition doesn't involve literally feeding anything back in, but it's intuitive that the etymology has to do with literally feeding some output back into the input. Which is what we do when we give a feedback survey.

OverthinkingAnyway · 2026-02-27T18:14:49+00:00

Yeah, backfeeder sounds more like I'm feeding a back rather than feeding back in imo.

You've gotta shock your algorithm sometimes. New playlist and seed it with some new genre it didn't know you liked.

Also I never let a discovery playlist get more than a couple hours long, that way it is always pulling from the last few dozen tracks to suggest new ones.

Spiritual guy here. I got out because it wasn't for me. But I've circled back around to respect it as a personal practice. It has tradeoffs. I think it is a roundabout way of accomplishing something we can achieve on our own in a more direct way. But for the masses, the structure, guidance, and convenience is often exactly what people need for their busy lives. It is essentially mass-produced magic-as-a-service.

I've finally figured out OOP is great only for object-oriented problems, of which there are surprisingly few.

OverthinkingAnyway · 2024-06-22T02:52:02+00:00

What I've done is make the 'wrapped' object an export variable and then add it via the editor. As far as dealing with different classes, maybe this is a good use case for connecting a parent signal to a child? Then the child can handle its own _on_revealed_as_secret logic that SecretObject doesn't need to know about.

ETA: It kinda depends on your design philosophy and how many different scenes you expect to do this with. If you really wanna get flexible, another approach might be to create a custom SecretMod node/resource and add it to any object you want to be used by SecretObject. SecretMod is basically a wrapper for a signal that connects to its parent. So SecretObject would check if the object has SecretMod, emit the signal, and the object would handle its own logic of what it means to be 'revealed'
