I've been doing this as well, but using regular editors. What benefit does Obsidian give here that a text editor doesn't give? You just want to write/paste something for storing but I never understood why I needed a different editor for it.

A killer feature that none of the tiling managers for macOS will ever implement for reasons I don’t know why:

Make it so I can double tap the cmd key to see outlines of windows and allow me to swipe using the touch board to shift windows around into pockets space.

Network connection, lobby, matchmaking, leaderboards or even chats, yes. But the actual simulation, probably not for fast paced twitchy shooter.

Also not just for performance reasons, I wouldn’t call BeamVM hard realtime, but also for code. Your game server would usually be the client but headless (without rendering). Helps with reuse and architecture.

That would pollute the namespace. The type could be namespaced under the function signature, it's not its own type unless you extract it with FunctionParamater<typeof ..>[0] or along those lines.

I wish rust and typescript had this builtin. Obj-C and Swift spoiled me. Named/keyword arguments is worth the verbosity. Maybe not Obj-C-tableViewcellForRowAtIndexPath level, but still.

Static typing is a must unless the compromise is worth it. For instance even without static typing Elixir is worth it for OTP and the preemptive scheduler (VM) is just a bonus.

But then you also have to include what type of application it is. Real time or soft real time, etc.

You don’t need that application that sounds like a narcotic.

That’s built in, “man caffeinate”.

The way I understand it, its for those who can't help but to fix B while working on A and want to make sure that they are two different PRs? The way I do it is after B is done, I just create a new branch and point B to A in the PR. A is pointing to dev/master/upstream. Does JJ make this workflow more convenient?

If you want cohesion between entities pathfinding, adjust the cost when you do the pathfinding for tiles that has friendlies on them to be lower than their base cost.

The way to think about water crossing with naval transports, is to consider those things to be conditions. You already have a set of condition when pathfinding. Just add another case for water. Make it so the requirement is that you’re either on a ship or there is a ship on the adjacent tile you checked previously, e.g N-1. If valid, set a flag and now every tile check that is water should be appropriate.

The documentation and integration with Rust for this amazing, well done! Like other commenters, I also wish it had better static typing and looked more like Elixir with anonymous sum types and template literal types.

Whatever metric you use to deny certain sources, should be used on this one, but it's not. Especially now that it's proven that they are both ideologically & financially captured. There's no cause here, I am asking you to be consistent. You have changed policies in the past, but now that's not happening?

Swift, Typescript depending on your opinion with structural typing, and Rust.

Think Scala, Elm and Haskell have it as well.

Having that and elixirs pattern matching would be insane.

Snipkit and Pet.

I prefer Pet, mostly because Snipkit makes me verify 20 times (slight exaggerated) and doesn't give me the actual command so it'll be part of the shell history.

Honestly, just dump the command in my shell and let me press enter and make that the confirmation, but whatever.

You can give arguments with default values, so they are reusable across projects.
