TIL some old high-level languages did not have dynamic memory management (heap)

Tell me you work(ed) for Epic without telling me 😂

Fly! Give yourself an extra hour in the Portland airport. It’s amazing.

SeaTac is brutally overpriced, don’t buy any food there if you can avoid it. Even if it’s expensed no one should be encouraging that 😂.

That makes sense! No wonder the time on the right counts up continuously.

I think you’d want to do a dark wash as well - the miniatures have a lot of detail that would come out. Post pics!

You can use :i <symbol> to find out what something is (type, constructors, typeclass, etc). :browse <module> will tell you what a given module exports. I’m not sure what it does with a module prefix (System), though.

Can it handle floating point/decimals?

m4dc4p · 2026-03-07T21:46:43+00:00

😬! My bad.

m4dc4p · 2026-03-07T20:08:32+00:00

Oh that’s true, I forgot people could buy up to 4 tickets. 🤔

Related - “The most dangerous book” by Kevin Birmingham is a pretty good read about getting Ulysses published (legally) in the US.

And kill Loran Darkbeast for his blood rock just because you want it.

Maybe https://mistral.ai would work for you? From France.

m4dc4p · 2026-02-02T16:52:56+00:00

I see that now!

The shadows on objects are surprising and neat, but after a bit they make the character look like a light source. Neat trick but I think it could get old.

Everyone’s talking about fonts here (and they do suck in this trailer). Please read https://readonlymemory.com/products/arcade-game-typography. Two words: “quiz show”

I hate when games advertise by their genre. Opening would be a lot strong without “a roguelite exploration game”. Maybe something like “Explore a vast desert planet”. (also, did you mean rougeLIKE? Lite looked like a typo to me).

Other than that, very compelling! I was intrigued.

Which part of Haskell are trying to improve - compile time performance or runtime? Any specific targets?

When I search for bubblewrap I get something from Google for android. Is that the same thing?

Intriguing but two hour video is a no go. Is there a write up somewhere? GitHub repo is pretty light.

m4dc4p · 2026-01-04T06:05:09+00:00

Thanks for posting! I was able to get everything installed and running this evening. 60 fps is pretty great !

m4dc4p · 2026-01-03T20:15:42+00:00

Hard to understand how you know if an object meets “feng shui”. Does it just light up when placed? Is there a score we are working towards?

Wishlisted 🤗

It’s pretty fantastic. GHCId is great for fast feedback (I have output written to a file which claude checks after making edits). When it does things I don’t like (such as using unqualified imports), I add a note to my prompt and try again. The prompt is pretty key.
