@narfnra i have absolutely no thoughts on c++ im afraid coding it has erased all of my thoughts.. after 10 years i wish i had something insightful to say but not really!!!

C++'s greatest boon is knowing that i can make basically Anything i want that can feasibly be done on a computer until the end of time using just Lua and C++, but most people dont need to care about specifics or performance enough to justify the sorta clunker experience of writing C++

if what you want to achieve can be done in literally any other language then please do that instead, it'll be safer and smoother and simpler. u probably don't need to write drivers or background programs. the #1 priority is to enjoy your life, efficient code is #2

BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!! writing in C++, making all your own memory/vector/string stuff instead of using stdlib will open your 9th eye. if you want a good challenge, my favourite project ever was making an intel 8086 simulator using no stdlib, and making a GUI for it in Raylib. i think that's like, a double stacked learning experience

@narfnra omg!!!! yesss become a homebrew creature, i got started in N64 dev and it was wild & confusing loll, but its a cool space... if you get started pls show it off I'd love to see

sprite stacked cart and A* pathfinding that makes sure ur train is facing the right direction for love2d jam..

@spdrcstl

i don't feel strongly about it, i understand vegging out after work but i always think of cow clicker

it was made as a joke - you just click a cow - and it implemented the most basic, dumb skinner box stuff and it exploded in popularity. the creator hated that it was popular, so he deleted the cows, but then the players started to click the empty patch of grass where the cow used to be.. that part always makes me feel a bit sick
