Dropping in to add that the Venu 4 is an amazing watch as well. Battery says it'll last 14 days. With Pulse Ox enabled at Sleep, it drops to 11, but I'm happy with the tradeoff. Workouts like running for half an hour drop it even more, but comparing it to an Apple Watch, it's no match. It has a flashlight as well and looks like a normal smartwatch instead of rugged. All in all, if you care more about health features rather than watch<->phone connectivity, a Garmin is worth it.

This is true when you can reference the commit to an issue. Then, seeing the simple commit message you can select if you want to dig up what happened by reading up the comments at the issue.

On the other hand it really gets into my nerves when people don't use the task/issue/whatever manager system appropriately. Recently, I lost a couple of days trying to figure out how to compile a c++ framework because the other guy didn't document his pipeline. In general I'm really disappointed by the majority of my colleagues for the lack of comments inside and outside of our codebase and this is a persistent issue, at all the companies I worked for. Me along with other similarly irritated people, always ask for documentation if it is not given.

The robot vacuums cleaner technology seems to finally be useful enough, although it still has improvements to make. I've just recently acquired a $400 RoboRock s50. Comparing its features with the $900 Roomba, I can say it's worth it. The s50 tries to mop the floor albeit just with water. It is very good with carpets though. I ordered it from China and I was anxious if I would have to use translation software to understand the manual but thankfully the s50 has the voice commands, manual and the mobile app translated into English. The scheduled cleaning is really worth it. Make sure to keep away cables and curtains that reach the floor. Once, the wind got the curtain around the cleaner and the sensor detected obstacles everywhere and stopped. The app notified me that I need to remove obstacles which I did promptly and continued to clean until it finished. I am not really sure what's stopping Roborock to make the maps permanent like the Roomba.

Someone mentioned it in the thread but I can't find who. There is https://openstreetcam.org that I haven't yet used but intend to.

Hey, thanks for sharing your perspective. Father of a daughter here (1y) and expecting one more in a few months. I was always wondering how I could keep doing my Arduino and Raspberry Pi hobby projects while growing up a child but somehow it works, even at a slower pace. Sure I don't have as free time as I had, but I find these rare moments in a week and I take advantage of them. Having a great, even full time, job also helps as I changed my last very stressful one that hogged my time.

They are for a different job and can't really be compared. Phaser is a solely Canvas or WebGL browser games framework and does a really good job at that. If you just want to make browser games pick Phaser.

If on the other hand you want the option to build for desktop or mobile and other platforms try Unity. Why not pick Unity from the start? It supports building in WebGL but you can't really delve in that automatically generated javascript code to fix something in there and even if you tried to do it you would have to do it every time you build your game. You just have to trust that Unity will keep up to date its framework and its build system will optimise it as best as it can.

Also with Unity you trust your art and music to its packaging system. You can change some of the import options, but in the end you depend on its optimisations.

Unfortunately I don't see any graph as to how much more performance was squeezed out of it, and neither any data of the temperature increased, although in comments I can see people providing some answers with their heatsink and fan set ups. I would be curious to see if this has any improvement for applications such as games in RetroPie.

OGRE is a rendering engine not a game engine. You still have to add networking, physics, sound and other features like that to create a game.

In C# the first word is "summary" which is massively influenced by the way Visual Studio formats comments. I wonder though if this is an indication that a lot of people write comments.

CSS autocompletion within HTML

Wasn't expecting this! I wonder if they plan HTML autocompletion within PHP. This would really speed up my work.
