#indiedev update! still having fun building backend code, and #lua is still holding up super well. i really like that it has super powerful features like coroutines and the flexibility (chaos?) of javascript. emmylua and annotations have been super critical for […] [Original post on hachyderm.io]

A screencap of the simple (temporary) terminal UI for testing my game loop:

Actual text is a terminal UI that's probably terrible for screen readers but shows Round 4 of a battle between The Adequate American Bison of Jitteriness Thailand and The Bare Heroes of Dockyard's Chafing.

You can see the various characters in the parties and a readout of the events that happened, like this:

👸 Tenderbones attacked 🗡️ Catgut for 1 damage!
🧌 Catgut is now at 20 HP!
🤡 Seventh Avenue attacked 🗡️ Tenderbones for 8 damage!
👸 Tenderbones is now at -5 HP!
🪦 It seems our hero, Tenderbones, has been slain.

@renchap are there any docs on migrating from a single persistent redis to a multi-node setup? The best I've found is: - stop the server - copy the db - repoint/start the new server which is probably fine for single -> single.

@tailscale is there a way from the CLI to check if the current user needs to re-auth for `"action": "check"` SSH connections? today, Ansible swallows the text and hangs with no output. it'd be neat if yes and if so, force it & pop the window.

I hate how it's considered socially acceptable for a rich person to ask for money (they're an entrepreneur and you're investing), but if a homeless person asks for money, it's a scam and giving them $20 so that they can eat their first meal of the day is unjust and you should be donating to a […]
