Don’t let the desire to write β€œgood” code stand in the way of writing code. Write bad code earnestly and joyfully. Pour your heart into poorly implemented, existing functions. And maybe it will end up β€œgood” eventually or maybe it won’t, either way you still won't be pushing a product to market.

Don’t let the desire to make β€œgood” art stand in the way of making art. Make bad art earnestly and joyfully. Pour your heart into poorly executed, derivative creations. And maybe it will end up β€œgood” eventually or maybe it won’t, but either way you got to experience the magic of creating.

So, rocket simulation not quite yet...πŸ˜… I do have updates tho. Import system *actually* working (original implementation had issues, shocking I know). I also made some quality of life improvements in the lang and made/tested out a simple mass-spring-dampener system

Got a basic import system working in my language and I think that's what pushed it over the edge to make it *feel* like a honest to god real language Now it's time to start writing a rocket simulation in it πŸ˜ŽπŸš€

It sounds like I don't have to imagine at all actually

Imagine if HP said you had to install an HP app on your computer, and every time you wanted to print a document in Microsoft Word, you had to have Word transfer that document to the HP app, then the HP app would be the only thing allowed to actually send the print job off.

Been making really good progress on the programming language I'm writing in Rust. Finished implementing features like lists and dictionaries. Up next is an import system and then I'll be building a rocket simulation in my language as a sort of system test of the lang
