actually C# is pronounced "see hash" because every single type has a GetHashCode method

@eniko oh I always thought it was C-pound, because it's less lightweight than C

@eniko or do you go the GDScript route and make it kinda both?

i think one of the things that bugs me about RSS feeds is that there's zero feedback. no visible shares, likes, comments, nothing. not even the hint of an idea of how many people are subscribed to the dang thing. it's hard to get motivated writing big things when you have no clue if anyone's even seeing it

@eniko That's fair. On the consumer side, it's great, you can just get everything in one place, but on the authoring end you really don't know who is reading what, what does well and what doesn't.

A trick email marketing uses, and certainly some websites, is to embed a small transparent image in the email or article body and track how many times it gets downloaded, since feed readers won't bother loading it until a human views it.

Finally got around to playing .

At first I was thinking "this is a really tight platformer" and marvelling at the confidence I could have in each input.

Then Act 2 happened... holy shit Act 2. It's like... so good guys. My only gripe is I wish there were more Kiri levels.

Also great to see some pretty good aro/ace rep that I did not see coming.

Weird how covid is rampaging through the Olympics when it's supposedly over. It's almost like it's, you know, not

@eniko also weird how COVID is over but also COVID took out a presidential campaign.

@eniko Ah, the 'old finished in one day by working two-days-worth manoeuvre.' A classic.

Hope you're able to at lease take a bit of a breather the next few days to compensate.
