Game Engine White Papers: Commander Keen came in the mail today... and now the GitHub repo is gone and you can't order it on Amazon anymore. And then I saw this: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4855... Looks like it was more than just a nod to Fabien Sanglard's books after all... #retroprogramming

Apparently Turbo Pascal 7.0 and Turbo Debugger 5.0 aren't compatible. Does anyone know the latest TD version that can read TP binaries with a symbol table? #retrodev #retrocomputing #msdos #turbopascal

Screenshot of Turbo Debugger showing the error message "Program linked with wrong linker version"

Another one joined the collection. I guess I have more 90s game programming books now than I'll ever need. #gamedev #retrogamedev #retrocomputing #retrogaming

Updated (in this context downgraded) the setup: 386DX40, 14" CRT, IBM Model M keyboard, an old Logitech mouse, SB 16 Vibra, and a Gravis gamepad #retrocomputer #retrocomputing #gamedevelopment #retrogaming #dos

I'm setting up a workstation for an upcoming project. Everything except the monitor is too new (relatively speaking, most computer parts are from the late 90s). I've plugged together what I have, and I'm waiting for some new (old) parts. #retrocomputer #retrocomputing #gamedevelopment #retrogaming

Small computer desk with a 14" crt monitor on top, a black-and-white mechanical keyboard and a black mouse on the keyboard tray, and a black mini tower on the bottom shelf. Next to the monitor is a stack of books (Graphics Progamming Black Book, Mathmatics for Computer Graphics, Programming Game AI by Example, and two Turbo Pascal 7 books)

Do you use @obsidian.md ? Do you enjoy reading and statistics? You might want to check out my plugin, now available in Obsidian's community plugins. It's still in early development, and there are more things to come, but I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions! github.com/weph/obsidia...

This one came in the mail today. No TypeScript, but at first glance it's as raw as it gets 😅

It smells the way it looks

Cover of the book "Turbo Pascal 7.0" by Walter J. Savitch from 1993

Two yellowed pages from the book "Turbo Pascal 7.0" by Walter J. Savitch from 1993. You can tell just from the looks that this thing smells like an old book - musty and smokey

It's been out for a couple of months now, but I finally got my copy! Can't wait to pick up a few more tips on accessibility
