From what i’ve heard of the game industry, being a gamedev is already survival horror.
Not really visual anymore innit
Spotlight studio
Knew a programmer that was near blind who only used magnifier on maximum zoom with his IDE. One of the best programmers I met, but his screen looked very much like that. Don’t know how he did it.
Albino? There was an albino in my IT and the poor dude would literally be like 4 inches from the screen at all times. I guess that must be pretty close to his experience, yeah.
Yeah, I worked with an albino like that who used a handheld magnifying glass. It actually inspired me to write a magnifier application for windows (which didn’t have one at the time, this was in 2006). That then led me to write little windows apps every day for a month, which got a lot of attention.
Yeah so you gotta buy the lumafly lantern before you go in that area
I never expected a Hollow Knight reference here
But I have an LCD display
non-AMOLED devices spreading misinfo by enabling dark mode by default on low battery and it’s consequences…
Low battery mode on…computers?
Yeah. Some folk use portable computers on top of their laps. It’s weird :/
TFW when all of your bugs are like cockroaches that run away from the light but hide in the dark where you can’t see them.
This is a blessing. You won’t have to look at the spaghetti the last dev left behind.
With a good eye-tracker and some tweaking, this might be usable…
…and OLED screens the price of LEDs…
This should be considered a war crime
laughs in IntelliJ multi cursor mode
What…. Why…?!
Is it for double speed ?
It does get its uses. Mostly editing similar lines, multiple methods at the same time, etc. Makes you look like a ninja too
If you have multiple similar lines, you can perform the same editing on them all at once.
What’s the joke? VSCode has multi cursor.
With multiple cursors, we can see more of the dungeon, uh, I mean code.
The animation that goes with this is pretty slick: https://x.com/Phantom_TheGame/status/1748457358521426375?s=20
Coincidentally, there are writing (as in fiction, not code) apps just like this.
Oh hey, it’s modern

!The real horror is when you discover the monster behind all those errors haunting your sleepless nights… Was you all long
Is it 1st of April already? Damn, time flies
