I have Subreply pinned in Dia browser and amazingly I was still logged in (I haven't touched Dia in MONTHS). Whaddup?

6/6 i am coding nervously. i still feel like i'm going to hit some hidden roadblock. however, it's been wonderful to be able to use all the web APIs instead of native dependencies for audio, graphics, and input, and of course being able to distribute a no install app to players. it really complements my skills. thanks for watching!

5/n it's been nice to have explicit control over memory layout. i think that's one of the most frustrating shortcoming of JavaScript. there's something called AssemblyScript that adds more primitive types like int and there's a proposal for adding struct-like functionality but neither of these is close to stable and i'll still be using Go at work.

3/n you can compile Go to Wasm so it'll run in the browser. until very recently, i thought that any Wasm usage, particularly Go would be a massive download. however, that's not the case! tinygo is a compiler for embedded devices and Wasm that optimizes for size.

2/n so here's the demo. i've got basic tile and sprite rendering and input polling. when i'm not recording, i can get to up about 700k sprites on my super laptop. the bottleneck seems to be the GPU as i'm not doing any CPU-side sprite culling and when i shift the camera to limit balls drawn, the framerate climbs back up. this is promising compared to the JS implementation which was about 200k sprites but was way more featureful so i'm not ready to claim a 3x boost and honestly i was expecting a more substantial improvement. everything is singlethreaded.

You get old. You get sick. You die. This is all life is and be stressed about money every single day.

I joke that I plan to live until 92yo but it's getting harder every single day.

Give me ideas for a new project. I want to work on something entirely different than Subreply.

Media library management is still not very good. Every music player tries and fails in different ways, most movie players don't try at all, and for ebooks we only have calibre, a bloated mess with horrible UI.

ChatGPT output is so terrible with all the emojis. I can't even read the output. I use Grok lately. Gemini 3 is still bad in my opinion. What AI do you use?

whoever is wondering about the next album to listen to: please-please-please try the Piedras diptych by Nicolas Jaar. you have no idea what this 2xLP does to me.

A wireless charging station on your desk is one of those little things that is now hard to imagine everyday life without.

I am still a cable guy. Fast charging works better.

One month left until 2026, how are you doing?

I was always proud of my eyesight until I turned over 40. Doctor said it's still 20/20 vision but honestly it sucks.

Hitfalling in Rivals 2 is a way cooler mechanic than Melee L-cancelling. Still haven't figured out how to hitfall consistently though.
