I just replace all my tests with noop codes. Quick, easy, passes.

mynachmadarch@kbin.socialto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•Real find in a website's javascript393·1 year agoAnd this is why I hate all web development and the fact that most jobs are web bs these days. Everything has so much crud baked in and including twelve modules with a million functions just to do anything is the norm.
Giving my back my beautiful optimized assembly dangit.
mynachmadarch@kbin.socialto Technology@lemmy.ml•New open-source, high resolution, low-latency E-ink monitor announced — Modos Paper delivers 1200p in a 13.3-inch form factor15·1 year agoSame, the first 13" colour e-ink that doesn’t cost more than a single limb I’m so getting if I can swing it. I read digit comic books so much and having it as e-ink is my dream.
mynachmadarch@kbin.socialto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•Python is great, but stuff like this just drives me up the wall6·1 year agoTechnically the Python bool is fine, but it’s part of what makes numpy special. Under the hood numpy uses c type data structures, (can look into cython if you want to learn more).
It’s part of where the speed comes from for numpy, these more optimized c structures, this means if you want to compare things (say an array of booleans to find if any are false) you either need to slow back down and mix back in Python’s frameworks, or as numpy did, keep everything cython, make your own data type, and keep on trucking knowing everything is compatible.
There’s probably more reasons, but that’s the main one I see. If they depend on any specific logic (say treating it as an actual boolean and not letting you adding two True values together and getting an int like you do in base Python) then having their own also ensures that logic.

mynachmadarch@kbin.socialto Gaming@beehaw.org•Can somebody explain why game makers don't start their own companies together?2·1 year agoMy gaming groups (both tabletop and video) are leaning into experimental phase of trying new stuff. Count me in if I ever come across your release in the wild.
On the music and visual side. If at all possible I highly recommend finding or hiring someone to at least review what you have and advise, if not doing all the work. There’s so much to both that it takes ages to get right but they can have such a huge impact as you seem to know.
mynachmadarch@kbin.socialto Gaming@beehaw.org•Am I the only person that feels that retro games are better?1·1 year agoI’m really open to anything. I tend to lean towards RPGs or story games (Life is Strange, Dear Esther, and Stanley Parable for instance) but I play most anything.
mynachmadarch@kbin.socialto Gaming@beehaw.org•Am I the only person that feels that retro games are better?2·1 year agoDo you have any examples of smaller studio made games with flashy imagery and effects to match the good story? Really I’m just looking for game recs and want to get away from the usual “big” names for a bit.
I feel like you’re referencing a specific show, but if not, what you described actually sounds kinda rad.
