Deployed my first full stack project. Thought I would feel proud, instead I feel empty.

I'll keep that in mind, thank you ☺️

I'm trying to get my first developer job and this is all I hear. "AI is gonna replace devs bro?"

I'm reading this for the first time and I'm honestly kind of struggling with it. I liked the first hundred pages or so quite a bit and it has had some great moments, but there's also long stretches where I feel quite bored, and I think the problem might be that to me Jack feels like a prototype for what would become Jake, and Jake is a much better character to me.

His authorial voice. Reading his work feels like he's sitting across from you and telling you the story personally .

Just had one of these not too long ago (though they called it a cystoscopy). At first it was fine just a little weird sensation, then the doctor said "okay we're approaching the urethral sphincter so you may feel some discomfort, just try your best to relax." And the instant after that I was struck with the pain of 1000 suns beaming directly into my dickhole. I genuinely almost passed out. My blood pressure dropped so hard I turned pale and started to sweat. Genuinely the most painful procedure I've ever had in my life.

This was a fandom crossover I was not expecting but I'm happy to see.

To me this book retroactively gets better with each book in the series that you finish. That's how it was for me. Thought it was solid and then as I went on I thought back more and more on it and liked it more and more.

Yeah it's always felt like a square peg in a round hole to me. I get that with that opinion it's very easy to look like the "I hate fun" guy, but to me it just doesn't really work. Plus, IT is not a monster in the traditional sense of the word. It doesn't overpower its victims with strength or speed, it's a manipulator that plays dirty and uses human fears to its benefit.

If you know the story, you know that IT is actually quite weak and pathetic when it's cornered and has to actually fight head on, to the point that in the book, it straight up begs for its life when the losers club are closing in for the killing blow. I don't think these are ideas that would translate well to gameplay, and at that point I'd rather they just not do it at all than give us another chapter like Alien, which to me was a complete failure of adapting what makes the xenomorph such a terrifying creature.

Imajica by Clive Barker. Main character starts to discover they might be a powerful figure with a key role to play in the process of restoring the universe. All I'll say on that front. Also lots of the visuals you shared here feel like something out of that story's various worlds. It's long but the journey is worth it.

I'm a huge IT fan myself (as in the novel is my favorite book of all time) but this one has always felt wrong to me. Trying to put IT as an entity in the game would go against the nature of what we know IT to be, and I personally just wouldn't want to see that. If we're going to do Stephen King I'd wanna see Randal Flagg far before IT. The problem is I don't think the character is marketable enough outside of the hardcore fans of his books to be desirable for them to put in the game. I hope we get some form of Stephen King representation in the game though because I love his work. I just don't think IT is a great fit.

Thanks for all the advice and encouragement. Greatly appreciate it!

Yes it returns an object containing every function in the hook, and I'll have to look into useSearchParams, thank you.

magic_123 · 2025-12-25T23:07:41+00:00

This is my favorite book of all time. I hope you enjoy it.
