wh. wha- ???? ? godot put the colours down. you're drunk
Godot script editor window showing several color preset values, all variants of Sea Green.
Sea Green is the darkest, Dark Sea Green is the lightest, Light and Medium are almost the same but Light is bluer for some reason. An extremely perplexing grouping.

Found this ancient book (1979) while cleaning out the bookshelf. Should I sell it or hold on to it in case AI becomes relevant in the future? #book #ai
Book "What Computers Can't Do" with the subtitle "The Limits of artificial intelligence"

For years we have been overwhelmed by the volume of code contributions we have to review, especially from new contributors. AI has made the problem much worse. That's why we are taking steps to reduce the burden on maintainers while still welcoming new contributors: godotengine.org/article/cont...

Godot went through the exact “sponsor is bad, so money is bad” discourse a few months ago, and… nothing of note changed — other than more people were paid to fix your bug reports and improve the engine for everyone. This page was created, too:

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers. If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of: fund.godotengine.org

Godot's GitHub has increasingly many pull requests generated by LLMs and it's a MASSIVE time waster for reviewers – especially if people don't disclose it. Changes often make no sense, descriptions are extremely verbose, users don't understand their own changes… It's a total shitshow. #godotengine

I've received some amazing feedback on TalkieTalkie. One of the more unexpected realizations was how many people would appreciate localization for their presentations. When I implemented this, I thought it would be a nice to have thing, but now I guess I should improve the workflow for this

For years I have heard people saying "You need an elevator pitch". At #GodotFest, the hypothetical scenario finally actually happened: A game dev in the hotel elevator actually asked me what sort of game I was working on and I managed to explain it before they left the elevator at the next floor.
