pretty sure if you store your backups on the same service that houses your live data you don't actually have any backups https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/05/google-cloud-accidentally-nukes-customer-account-causes-two-weeks-of-downtime/

@justafrog that sounds almost exactly like what happened lmao:

"UniSuper had duplication in two geographies as a protection against outages and loss. However, when the deletion of UniSuper’s Private Cloud subscription occurred, it caused deletion across both of these geographies."

note that a reduction in reaction speed is probably not (solely) a function of aging because there's been studies that point out that after retirement age reaction speed actually increases*

seems way more likely that working age adults being more stressed, overworked, and ill rested reduces reaction speed to me. meanwhile retirees who have no job and functional UBI won't have nearly as many of those issues

*no i will not cite my sources on this since it was years ago i was looking into it, if you want to find the study i recommend you hit up a search engine (if any functional search engines remain in our AI-tainted present)

pandoc is so useful as a developer. i use it for all sorts of things like creating nicely formatted documentation from markdown files to integrating it into our script processing tool to easily output nicely formatted scripts for voice actors with their lines bolded

Some great impostor syndrome going on today trying to wrap my head around recursive shadowcasting, but finally getting somewhere

@britown fun fact: i do raycasted shadows/vision in midboss and at one point i emailed david brevik to ask how those were done in diablo 2. he then pointed out an optimization i'd never thought of: the fact you can cache the offsets for each ray to check ahead of time rather than doing a bresenham algorithm for each

meanwhile in midboss i basically just shoot a ray using bresenham from each and every tile within a certain visibility range to the player and if it gets blocked at any point that tile is obscured >_> works fine tbh

Listening to a podcast that mentions the pandemic, in past tense natch, and how it changed their behaviour re: being more cognizant about hand washing and gross surfaces. And, y’know, they sound really earnest about what they think they learned. Truly, it seems like people learned about hand washing and face touching in 2020, then got their initial vax in 2021, flung off their cloth masks, and never gave another thought about Covid.

@elana @thatkatharine it would not surprise me in the least if like 85+ percent of people went back to not washing their hands now that covid is allegedly over* 🙃

*it is not

@unormal for kitsune tails i built a StringCache class which memoizes calls and sticks the result in dictionaries and if the dictionaries get too full it just clears em

simple and effective

eniko,
@eniko@peoplemaking.games avatar

@unormal or if you're feeling particularly frisky you could use my unmanaged memory arenas library https://github.com/Enichan/Arenas

but you'd still get an allocation if you convert them into C# strings so tbh memoization is more effective
