Fun fact: when de gpu died and i took it out from the computer, my first thought was to open it to see if I could fix it. Luckily i was lazy and opted for a more powerful gpu

So I learnt that GPUs dont have like standard sizes and the new one I got is too big for my current case, so I had to buy a new case and today I learned how to disassemble and assemble a computer. (First time for me!) It has not exploded (yet) so it looks like a win for me 🌟

Also Dr Who but the Blink episode. It was the first time I saw Dr Who and I thought it was a horror series 😅

I did a Japanese course in Udemy, and it was great! It was "just a video playlist" but it worked well enough and the learning quality was good. I believe that there is some interaction with the teacher but I was not yet interested in this.

Working on an A.I. policy for my calculus classes. Decided to be upfront about the current situation with LLMs and to give a heartfelt explanation for why the course still matters.
Al policy

Context

Artificial Intelligence, or "A.l.," Is a broad term used to refer to several different kinds of technologies. The kind most relevant to this class are Large Language Models (LLMs), which use mathematics to analyze large amounts of human-produced text and then generate new text that simulates what a human might write in response to prompts or questions. Some examples of LLMs are OpenAl's ChatGPT, Anthropic's Claude, and Google's Gemini.Current LLMs can provide a solution to any calculus problem I give you. So why should we work on them, you might ask? Here's the thing: for the most part, the problems were already solved anyway. Calculus as a subject is nearly 400 years old. It has reached into virtually every modern scientific and economic field. And while I would like to believe that I have crafted a few new problems with some small amount of originality tailored to this class, for the most part I have curated a collection of exercises drawn from my years of teaching calculus. Those exercises come from textbooks, workshops, friends, and other fields of study, as well as my own invention.
And they nearly all have known solutions, often with fairly standard approaches.
Before A.I. became widely available, you could find those solutions in another textbook, or from a friend's notes, or through a repository on the internet.The point of this class is not necessarily to solve problems that have never been solved before. It is for you to develop habits of thinking that are used by mathematicians, scientists, and policymakers-to develop a sort of mental toolbox that can be applied to new problems. If along the way you happen to find a new way of solving one of the class exercises, that's great! I am constantly learning new things from my students. But you will be bereft of discovery if you rely on a LLM for solutions to the calculus problems before you. Here I mean the discovery of having your own realizations, crystallizing your own internal understanding, claiming the knowledge in a way that cannot be taken away from you.
That ownership is what I want for you, and that is what the course is built around.

I just discovered Unity's AnimatorOverrideController 🤯 I should look at all the buttons I've never pressed on the editor lol I'm missing a lot of stuff for sure

+ by any other means, like walking out from a portal or any other cinematic. PlayerMovementController is the one that reads the set Source and sends it to the PlayerMovement. It also is the one that actually enables/disables movement.
010
Roig @ SAGA Barcelona Game Fest @jroig24.bsky.social · 06/08/2026
Player movement moves the player, but is a "dumb" script. It does not calculate where to move. It just has a Move function that gets a Vector2. Who calculates this vector is InputMovementSource, that reads the input. This can be swapped for other Sources, in case I want to control the character +
