The amount of nuance there is to this stance is pretty staggering. At my job I will be the fastest option. Our card readers take forever and the scales on the Fast Lanes are on which also take forever. But when I go to Walmart I ALWAYS self check because their scales are off

I'd argue that the source code is bad in a typical "I'm never going to need to maintain this" way, because the comments never explain why we're exposing the mantissa and exponent of a flowing point number in raw binary terms then hacking it back together, or what the magic number means

It's a sweet science. I'm not above admitting I'm trying to solve a problem when I write code, but the art is making sure I, and everyone else after me, can read it and understand what I was thinking when I wrote it

"But but compilers already alter the contact of trust!" And GUESS WHAT I CAN DO IF I DON'T TRUST THE COMPILER!! You haven't addressed the argument at all, this is Whataboutism at its finest, politician

Code does what it says it does. Every other source of info on the code is second hand information, and you should never get into the habit of trusting second hand information about code

No. You need to retire and stay out of coding. About as useful as a politician, you are

I restate; you do not understand what programmers DO. Your reply makes it clear you think their job is to write code. We are not politicians, we READ the changes brought in front of us

Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
I'm not sure you understand what programmers do. We READ code for a living, and that's a lot of unvetted code to make a senior read. The response is that is a person who was slapped in the face with a novel long document and asked to approve it, we ain't doing that

Short swords are the best because you can kinda specialize them to do whatever and they'll still be a functional sword at most everything else just because it's a small boy

A human coded that generation. If we got pissed off about that, we'd have to stop playing Minecraft, Sims, and Obsidian for using the exact same techniques I just wish there was software of that quality for human voices

Only slightly related but I noticed how I took like one or two nice pics of my own avatar and all my headmates are snapping like 50 of theirs What I'm saying is snapping photos of yourself is related to how much you enjoy liking like yourself

I'll tell you what bad pizza is, pizza that you can't have because there's no restaurants serving it. Looking at you Little Caesars, the only close by location is Domino's (There are two local joints near where I work so I'm not starved for pizza)

The first thought was that video games are TOUGH to make because of all the compromises that often make it seem like outright errors, not that they were cool to make. I didn't get the cool vibes at all from that honestly, that's how far out the particular cut took me away from the fantasy

I am EXHAUSTED with people who argue with emotions first or assume the opponent has an emotion to vent. Emotions are real but focus on what the words say, not what you think they're trying to say

Or that it was done wrong on purpose for a point (see Superman 64 where Titus was contractually obligated to remove all real violence from the game)

Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Yeah I was about to meme that actually. I appear to be the ONLY person who walked away with the impression that "wow, sometimes games break reality horribly but they sure look cool doing it"
100
Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
I literally thought that WAS the point: video games are not realistic and they often feel wrong at a fundamental level, but they LOOK cool
200
Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
I really thought the point of this post is that people are going to pick strange, almost unrealistic ideals about their video game which make it look wrong somehow. Not whatever people seem to think I believe it means

Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Because single bladed basket hilt swords exist?? Also, DECAPITATION with a false edge cut is absurdly difficult. There's only one plausible cut I can find that would have enough energy to do this and as I keep explaining over and over, it's tricky to clear the horns while keeping that energy

Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
False Edge Cut refers to using the opposite edge of the sword. Please familiarize yourself with fencing terms

Look, I'm right here at the Grand opening of Spirit of Halloween. I keep trying this false edge cut and boy do I have to be careful with the recovery not to hit the top of an extended helmet while ending up in that pose. Like if I make any mistake I'm catching the horns, or not ending up

Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
The other thing is that, well, say what you will about the rest of the discussion, I think it proves the point the artist was trying to make. Video Game design is messy and someone is going to assume something intentional is wrong

Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
In this thread I misgendered someone. I'm not happy about that, especially since I'm the posterboy for using "man" meant with a gender neutral tone. Not everyone is okay with that

Lord DoomRater @doomrater.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
I did. The elbow points sideways in this pose, but in the drawn picture you can see the front of the elbow armor. Please reference the (flipped) model the artist also posted

The official explanation already settles it, but yeah it's like making video games alright, not everything translates 1:1 to real life
