โ€œIs that.. the mystical sword, Val-mir?โ€ asked Liโ€™thmil. The Ranger lifted his weapon. โ€œThat it is, elf.โ€ The blade glistened in the morning light, a single gem on the pommel shone with an otherworldly glow. Liโ€™thmil saw a Megadeth sticker on the blade. โ€œBadass,โ€ he whispered.

Thumbs up to some cool people. Brian Johnson, Colin Shannon, et al. Curious to see how they unify those two pillars; to me the compelling part of survival games is the generative/emergent nature of your individual story.

This is THE take. As an engineer who's been adjacent to lots of community management over the years... Communities are hard, people are messy, Twitter's problems don't all have engineering solutions, and thinking otherwise reeks of Dunning-Kruger. theverge.com/2022/10/28/234โ€ฆ

Mathematician Karl Weierstrass was born #OTD, Halloween, in 1815. The fools at The Academy all said he was mad, but in 1872 he announced that he had succeeded in creating a ~monster~. Image: Smithsonian Institution Libraries

PC upgrade time. Looks like the Core i9 13900K is consistently edging out the Ryzen 7950X for coding with GCC or Clang/LLVM on Linux. Has anyone seen results for MSVC or Rust on Windows? phoronix.com/review/intel-cโ€ฆ

Briefly back to share a hopefully-useful project. Made an example to install + setup the full Vulkan SDK, compile shaders, etc all through vcpkg and cmake. May it save you the annoying pain of build config so you can focus on the agonizing pain of Vulkan. github.com/meggsOmatic/vuโ€ฆ
