Just made my first blog post using GitHub pages if anyone wants to check it out. It will be just be me babbling on about random stuff. marcell-roos.github.io

Call for help to all mobile / #web experts! I am trying to make a setup video to enable people to use a tablet for web development (As I suspect most people interested in this would be web developers) But I hit a major block, I can't find a way to use chrome dev tools, if anyone can help let me know

Seeing if I can replace my laptop entirely with a tablet, seems promising with #GitHub #Codespaces, might make a video on it on my content account @virtualpaper.bsky.social #Programming

Can't wait for the new #Hearthstone expansion to drop in a few hours, just hope to see some more variety other than imbue paladin

Nice and early start to the Monday #Monday #Code #Programmer

Hello World! Hope everyone is having a nice and lazy Sunday! Going to take a break from all projects to spend time with family, play some #hearthstone. What do other developers do on Sunday? Do you have a designated lazy day? #Coding #Developer #Sunday #Dayoff #Code #Hearthstone

It's been a while. I am planning on starting on some projects soon and posting some updates. Just fun stuff, nothing that I think I will sell. Have a great day everyone! #Programmer #Code #Developer #Coding

Hi, this isn't something I'd usually post but the folks at youtube.com/@wizards_wit... One of my favorite creators have made one of those posts that you hope to never see, especially to never experience. Details is in the gofundme if you can help, I know 5 USD isn't cheap gofund.me/63696646

Started studying for my first AWS cert, made my AWS account, and added like 3 different billing alerts to go to my personal and work email. AWS billing stories are damn scary... #Programming

Going to Dox myself a bit. I live in South Africa, we have load shedding ( scheduled power outages)My power was supposed to be on an hour ago, it's like they knew I was planning on working the second it came online. My first hour of work is always my best and sets my tempo for the day :(

As a self taught developer who joined the workforce before ChatGPT was announced even, I can understand why people might be sceptical of hiring self taught developers in the vibe coding (vc) day and age. Read some horror stories of CS Grads vc as well. I'm just sceptical of everyone now really.

Ditching caffeine is one of the hardest things I've done but I was drinking 2-3 energy drinks daily. Today I'm one week free, tea has been a great help

Where do you fellow game devs believe the Game Design Document (GDD) belongs, and is it applicable to every team and size you have worked on? How do you use it during the games production? Does it help keep the game focused? Really curious and excited to hear your thoughts #Gamedev #Inidedev

Now I have 32GB Ram (The 4GB soldered got ignored, fair enough) PC feels so much faster!!

12GB Ram is no longer doing the job with my day job and with massive docker containers. (2x 4GB sticks and a soldered 4GB) Super excited to upgrade to 2x 16GB sticks this weekend. Just having work apps open and a browser is making me go into swap memory. #dev #webdev

I said I was taking a break today from Game Dev Work, next thing I know I am elbow deep in building the second mechanic, and now things are happening. This stuff is addictive. #GameDev

So grateful for almost hitting 50 followers, going to give a little teaser on my project. I am working with the super talented artist @ziireynak.bsky.social , making our first indie game. Very much still downloaded placeholder assets but coding is going well. "Soon" I will leak some footage #Gamedev

I'll be honest, I use ChatGPT in game development. I haven't worked in Unity in 3 years so the references is helpful especially with the heavy math stuff. (Did a in code animation) I am learning how to do these things myself slowly but surely. My goal for next mechanic is no AI help. #GameDev

Seen people posting games on some 20 day challenge thingy. Not planning to partake but do want to share one of my favourite games store.steampowered.com/app/278360/A...

Got 3 hours of dev done tonight, pretty proud since it's a work night. Refactored for 2 hours and got in a new mechanic that I'm very excited about. It doesn't look good enough to post yet but it feels pretty good on testing. #GameDev

Have to say, picking up my game Dev but actually having a good friend to do it with makes it so much more fun. Even the boring stuff is not that bad. #Gamedev

To all the indie devs with full time jobs and a partner that lives with them. How do you manage your time without neglecting your responsibilities? What does your schedule look like? I'm struggling a lot to find a balance. #GameDev #IndieDev

Funny looking back at an old project (for reference) and seeing how over engineering is actually just bloating and technical debt cause you don't need 90% of the junk. Build as needed, otherwise you'll make a mess in most cases.

Working again in Unity, doing UI properly for the first time and I am horrible at it... #Gamdev

Dwarves are cool

To the solo devs out there with a full-time job. Am I better off saving up 10 leave days then entering a game jam or is it viable to enter a game jam and still work your full day job? My ADHD Impulsiveness wants to sign up for one right now. I need serious advice. #GameDev #Advice

There are so many game jams! itch.io/jams

Feel free to be political, but I get enough of that stuff on every other social media platform, so I'll be avoiding it.

Opened up an old, ambitions RPG game I was working on two years ago in Unity. Turns out everything still works in Unity 6, except the dialogue but I think that was broken. Scraping the game mechanics to use when I enter a game jam end of the year. So glad I decoupled as much as possible. #Gamedev

So grateful for the game devs following me, I can't promise to follow you all back. Learning a lot from these solo devs and their creativity solutions. Routing for you guys! Making games in your free time is hard and I respect being able to keep the motivation. I hope to connect to some of you :)

Did I miss the moment Bluesky increased the character limit to 300? I could have sworn it was like 125 last time I checked? I was legit just about to post I hope the increase it to 250 at least. Next om my wishlist is something similar to threads for long from stuff. Still an awesome platform :D.

Why TF is every app blue and / or green?

If anyone is interested in checking out a fairly small Minecraft streamer check out Mondays3 www.youtube.com/@Mondays3 Should be live in like 10 minutes, say virtual sent you :)

I see a lot of programmers who like using big words for simple concepts. Probably not the case for everyone but just keep in mind you might be making your content less accessible, but maybe you only want to interact with your fellow fancy vocabulary peers which is cool too. No hate to you folks :)

I am so bored with my wife gone for a few days, I have decided to do a full antivirus pc scan on my pc for the next 4 hours. And consume way too much internet

I have noticed I am a very controversial person... I prefer programming in Java whenever possible. I use MS Edge as my main browser. I think using Linux for your personal pc is for masochists. #Anarchy #Controversial #Programming

I have a prediction for 2030 that I am convinced will be 100% wrong The cost to run AI will be too high and funding will wither out. It will be unable to keep up with the user load and essentially die by its own success, AI will exist in labs and internal businesses with a very focused dataset.

@loggjaw.bsky.social Are you still streaming today?

I've never been more conflicted about getting a new game as I am now. #PoE2 is in my steam cart and I'm just looking at the buy button. Can anyone help me decide? #PathOfExile2

Been a long busy year, the best year of my life to be honest, but finally thing's are winding down.

So I'm playing around with 3D games and want to do a small project to start off with and learn some physics and world interaction. You guys think a platformer is a good start? #Game #GameDev #gamedev #game

I blame my #ADHD for this. I need to be at the office at 9am, I decided I need to leave for the office (20min drive) at 6am incase traffic is bad. Now I'm just sitting in the cafeteria browsing socials... Why do I always do this to myself :(
