after evaluating the current state of web backends, i decided to write my next web project as a raw port 80 socket in c++
made this parametric single line font system and editor a couple of years ago inspired by Hershey fonts and LCD displays where each character is defined by a 64-bit mask. keep meaning to turn it into a little graphics library for easy to use unicode type rendering.
@nasser "i've played a creative technologist simulator, does that count?"
i take back what i said earlier about Unity 6 having GLTF support; i was mistaken and it doesn't. kind of incredible for it to still not support one of the best and most popular 3d graphics interchange formats.
they added generative AI to MS Paint and a currency to use it. you can't make this stuff up!

@selfsame chonkosaurus
the latest version of Unity finally has native GLTF import support... and it doesn't work properly. still completely garbage software.
@kaho they are!!

A few hours left to apply to the Draknek New Voices Puzzle Grant! Make sure you get your application in before 23:59 PST TODAY ⏰‼️
the sad part is actually that i know it's probably my fault, but can't find the reason
random crashes in luajit that don't happen in regular lua is very sad

Getting #GodotEngine oiled up to the state it is now, where development speed is so incredibly fast and there is such good harmony with foundation, contributions and community took many many, _many_ years of refining processes for development, contribution, release management, moderation, etc.
I will do a talk about it at GodotCon in a week explaining parts of this process!
Pressing the fork button takes a second. Learning to do what we do takes a tiny bit more 😞.
@nasser damn! keep the board and replace all the pieces with one piece that moves diagonally!
