A language to surpass Metal Gear...
You might as well look at HyperRogue, where the whole game happens to be on the same model.
This looks very interesting! I liked the menu for characters and worldbuilding, I should try this soon!
The BSDs still cannot run docker
Github was usable and fast, now it is slow. Guess what changed...
This looks interesting! Thanks for sharing it, wonder if anyone else has related content.
I've realized I am more fond of WinXP rather than Win95.
Dude, please give money to artists instead of using genAI
Nice read, I've been wondeling if coffee really had an effect on mental health too
Just I was trying to find a benchmark about this, I wondered which algorithm would work best for videogames. Thanks!
Hell, I have to use my phone instead if I want to go to any of those pages nowadays. And even my phone now gets a random crash from chrome or the page itself.
Also happens with Github and anything that uses ads lately. A 2 core PC dies while trying to render those pages.

My PC hangs as soon as any "dynamic" javascript button starts to load! I'm glad I was not the only one, finally!

To add on top of this, it is interesting when you link it to ADHD and related conditions. Where do you draw the line between "low" executive function (core adhd symptom) and "normal"?
One may argue that if society were simpler or different than today, many of such cases would not be a problem as it is nowadays, kinda like people wearing glasses: you dont ask if they cant see or if they need help, because they have the proper tools (glasses) and environment (our own perception) that fully accomodate them when needed.
This could also apply to other things, but I am mind-wandering. Maybe somebody could draw more links to stuff like this.
I see it like when you compare digital books vs physical books: physical requires less context in your mind, and it provides direct rather than abstract stimulus to the brain.
When you go digital, your brain is writing the sticky note, but also has in its cache the instructions for the menu, the apps you normally use, that annoying notification, etc, plus your rl context. But on physical, you only have loaded the instructions for the pen and paper (and your rl context).
Having too many things in mind can reduce your executive function battery. Hope this helps! (ofc, this is an oversimplification of ADHD)
Time to do one in Scheme, I guess.
I just use rc shell from Plan9 (ported to Linux[1]) nowadays, it is more simple than bash and whatever other shell there is out there.
You want functions? For loops? Lists? They got them.

In the end, it doesnt even matter, javascript frameworks are already big enough to slow down your pc.
Unless if said optimization on parsing runs at the very core of JS.
