Honestly the only downside I can now think of is that if this starts being a trend, it gets harder to surmise what's the "canonical" version of a game. Like if national archives started collecting video games only to neglect their the version, where does that leave you?

Honestly I need to get myself an avocado and pea sprouts as a garnish, toast one bread square to a perfect level of doneness, one not too black nor too bland, spread the fruit with a golden knife and serve it all on a bed of flowers. Ah, a breakfast!

Reply to a tweet about the big game by devtesla
It is day 2014 after I decided to further my attempt at assuming a human form by taking up Twitter and now I am demonstrating my human-likeness by enjoying "sportsball", ha! Those fools! There is nothing as stupid as sportsball. The mere thought is tingling my scales. But this is what you need to do to become a senator as my elder Bilderbergsies have told me.

It'll be pretty stable for some time, I think I'll start making bigger changes next weekend and it may be momentarily wonky then. In the meantime I'll just refactor it into something more manageable and fix a few obvious bugs.
Like at the moment the night mode code is literally 19 lines and mostly just color variables and that kind of clarity would be hella nice on the common side as well.

We have seen thee, queen of cheese,
Lying quietly at your ease,
Gently fanned by evening breeze,
Thy fair form no flies dare seize.
All gaily dressed soon you’ll go
To the great Provincial show,
To be admired by many a beau
In the city of Toronto.

Reply to comment by devtesla in All Followers Are Fake Followers by Moonside
I use a client for twitter just because it makes the numbers less prominent, and it rules. I love twitter, but jesus the number shit is such a pain. Like I see folks post about how many followers they have, or like screenshotting the twitter analytics page, and I kind die on the inside.
Actually I went and got a custom CSS Chrome extension and got rid of almost all number silliness with these settings on my desktop computer:
.ProfileTweet-actionCount {
opacity: 0;
}
div.module.Trends.trends {
opacity: 0;
}
.ProfileCardStats {
opacity: 0;
}
Needless to say, this rules. Twitter just feels like relaxed spa now.

Reply to comment by twovests in Floating point considered harmful (for games) (a rant by 1vs) by twovests
I actually first stumbled into rational number data type when I was 12 or 13 and learning Lisp (but that story didn't end well and which totally gave me a misleading view of how principled programming languages were). I think all the major functional languages have them as it's not hard to implement as an abstract data type. A super basic is just a product type of two integers and call one the numerator and the other denominator and implement the operations accordingly.
Even Coq has them and if Coq has something implemented, it's probably pretty widespread in Haskell, Standard ML, OCaml, Scala and various Lisps and what have you.
If you really want some numeric nonsense:
- Bad implementations of complex numbers. The rectangular form
a + bi
is good for sums andre^(iθ)
for multiplications. Ideally there should be one type for complex numbers and two classes likedata Complex = Rectangular a b | Polar r θ
in Haskell. This works ok if there are sum types, but apparently this is too avant garde for most languages. - The Haskell numeric tower makes zero sense and is implemented with type classes, which isn't first class and is antimodular to the extent I recommend beginners only use library defined ones and not make your own like at all for a while at least. Like the Num class for numbers: you need to implement the operations
(+)
,(*)
,abs
,signum
,fromInteger
,(-)
whereabs
andsignum
are total party poopers as basically what Num is is a mathematical ring with an extra operation. But, for example, complex numbers don't have a notion of absolute value defined for them so this turns sour quickly. I don't know what would make the situation better, however. They'll never fix this, probably.
Also if you want to read a rant about Booleans... this is pretty good. Every time I'm writing a function that takes a boolean parameter, I split it in two functions or somehow avoid testing for equality in the function. Thus pattern matching is bae and matching constructors is heaven sent. The author's piece on why dynamic languages aren't a thing at all is good too.
Phew, I'm glad that I got all that out of my system!
