  • And can I get to choose some perks for my next life?

    If no, here’s some suggestions:

    • Intuitive hindsight: In your next life, you’ll have an “intuition”, which will be able to help you to help repeating good things and avoiding mistakes, but the more you change the new timeline, the less trustworthy it becomes.
    • Supernatural talent: Based on your previous life’s talents, you can more easily guess how certain things works.


  • Missing window decorations? Just import GTK, and use it for your multi-platform application, despite you’re using OpenGL/Vulkan for everything else. Alt key trying to bring up a menu in your game? That’s just expected behavior. (Yes, GNOME devs really tried to tell me, that the Alt key opened the menubar in Unreal/UT99, and that it should be in every PC game.)












  • Rust was among the first more well known projects, which adopted a Code of Conduct, then grifters in the OSS community cried censorship, which made people flock to it to “own the right”. Even if I think it’s an overrated marriage of flesh between C and OCaml, Code of Conducts are generally a good thing, and the people who really like toxic callouts arre more of an anomaly, and likely were flown there due to the culture war stuff.
