...uh, exactly what do you think I do, JD?

I dunno. I vaguely remember that you worked for A Company at one point, doing Things. This is more than I usually get up to.

Also, everybody on the fucking planet should read The War of Art by Steven Pressfield.

I read The Art of War. I'm still procrastinating but now I know how an army should react on facile, dispersive and desperate ground.

Are we talking BLU or RED army here?

Ever "borrow" music for your games, then later when they come up on your usual playlist you realize halfway through the song that it's not the soundtrack to your fucking game?

OKAY SIR I HAVE FIXED YOUR BUG TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE BUT HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN ACCESS TO VIEW IT

SO UNTIL SOMEBODY COLLAPSES ITS WAVEFORM THE BUG IS BOTH OPEN AND FIXED

IT IS SCHROEDINGER'S BUGFIX.

Woohoo, I finally got my JoGL map reader working.

More terrifying than getting rotation code right on the first try: getting hardcore assembly-style stack manipulation right on the first try.

EPILOGUE: It turned out to be a slower implementation and did not solve the problem I was having anyway. SEE ABOVE!

Classic · « **Reply #127 on:** March 11, 2009, 07:32:48 PM »

Sorry to hear about your stack manipulation not fixing your problem.

... Why the hell was it less efficient anyway?

Brentai · « **Reply #128 on:** March 11, 2009, 08:03:21 PM »

Tracking that stack pointer is a computational bitch.

Brentai · « **Reply #129 on:** March 20, 2009, 04:50:46 PM »

...right.

Which one of you people have nothing better to do with your money?

Yeah, well.

Speaking of things to put on something to hang on your wall, seriously guys which one of you?

JDigital · « **Reply #132 on:** March 22, 2009, 11:42:16 PM »

I'm not using it right now, but between whiteboards and anime cels I'm all out of room on my wall.

Arc is apparently awesome.

There will be pics eventually but first I need to find a cherrywood desk to pose with.

Brentai · « **Reply #134 on:** April 07, 2009, 06:36:27 PM »

Hmm. I think I just spent the last month on collision detection.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT PLAQUE ARC I LOVE IGNORING ITS SAGE ADVICE.

...oh, right. Um. This is what Arc sent me.

I need to either go find a stand for it or actually *gasp* hang something on my wall (my office is as empty as my soul). Apparently my need to do this is rather immediate, because the thing has to be staring me in the face at all times lest I fall to temptation and geometric kerjiggery.

what about open heart surgery

Kazz · « **Reply #136 on:** April 08, 2009, 11:14:58 AM »

piss easy.

Bongo Bill · « **Reply #137 on:** April 08, 2009, 11:45:25 AM »

Not as necessary as farming, I guess?

Zaratustra · « **Reply #138 on:** April 08, 2009, 12:36:51 PM »

And you're telling me farming is easy, vidya boy?

Brentai · « **Reply #139 on:** April 08, 2009, 01:37:48 PM »

You have to have a proper perspective on this sort of thing. Like, for the guy who actually needs open heart surgery, it's relatively easy; the guy doing it is the one making things much harder for himself.
