Noa 🪻

my fucking iphone helpfully "unloaded" my favorite epub reader and now i can't reinstall it because the dev let their license expire.

i love when i see someone post on bluesky about a game they made, and i click through into steam and it has "mixed" reviews and the reviews are like "i wanted to like the game but ran into gamebreaking bugs multiple times" from the last 6 months lol

heartbreaking: just performed 3 nearly breathless autistic infodumps at therapy, in between some mild weeping

i put together a little video explaining 868-BACK for the curious! youtu.be/SU_67Y2Wb_0

...I have to remark, with frustration. People outside the imperial core actually *get* that the fascists and autocrats will do them harm. Meanwhile people in the imperial core get shafted again and again and nothing changes and yet they keep voting for violence. A remarkable death drive.

FUCK your thermostatic public opinion, FUCK every shitlib who wrote us off, FUCK the state department, and especially FUCK every American social media company you can all SUCK MY DICK

Damn even the library itself is black

i have a potentially funny joke written about trans discourse, but idk if i'm cool enough to pull it off. ktp or mel could but i don't have the trust of an audience or social cache lol

bought some cool earrings

here's my #backloggdweekly, a day late tactical breach wizards is incredible, galactic racer continues to impress (tho i wish it was a traditional racer like sw: podracing), and i just started moonlighter last night, i'm enjoying it so far. i still put a couple hours a week into hfw but meh

the use of music in love is blind is incredible. the editors/producers are like "this scene is going to be AWKWARD" and then play some horror soundtrack-ass music.

i'm firin my lazer voice: i'm transing my gender! shoop da whoop!

after discussion with my wife, i'm not gonna be able to play curling this year. fuckin heartbroken, but our kids have too many activities

hugh grant voice: love actually IS blind, all around us

this single scene (with unmoving 3d models and single frame comic book inserts) has more emotion and weight than the entirety of horizon forbidden west. the push for realism has stripped the emotion from games. i should replay oni. maybe i'd finally beat it, 25 years later.

not me saying "love you, good luck have fun bye" to my wife

to be the change i wish to see in the world, and in the spirit of @raiganburns.bsky.social's annual christmas cinco paus gift-giving, i bought two copies of 868-BACK for friends who showed interest. i'd buy more, but i'm currently not very rich 😔

me @ my dad and his countless "funny" childhood stories of abuse and neglect

intermittent crying, maggots for brains, spiraling thoughts, inability to focus on my family, work, or hobbies... but i'm still here and i'm glad you're still here too, bailey

You might say he’s in baddie bliss. You might say he speaks Huttese but freaks hotties. You might say he’s scrib doon two chicks at the same time

> I used AI code generation in my game but just as semantic search ok sure. i don't think you should do that but whatever > I also used AI-based TTS but for specific effect non-AI TTS is a solved problem. it seems weird you wouldn't go there > also I used Suno ok so you're full of shit. got it

i need 868-back on the iphone in a bad way

sorry, code is fucking beautiful. its fucking magical i can type words in the thing and fucking TRIANGLES just appear ? oops i typed it wrong and the triangles did something i didn't EXPECT ?? now weird shit is happening ?? this is the best shit of all time. i was born to fight the computer

it's been really fucking with me that software folks have been shit at docs for 50 years but as soon as the llms need it, they're champing at the bit to write the best docs possible. suddenly, i know all of the intentions and edge cases the devs anticipated, all of the docstrings they left off.

still thinking these names for a baby are great noahbogart.com/posts/2024-0...

being a child of parents really fucked me up and idk that i'll ever recover

I was interviewing someone with 4 years of OCaml experience, and said: "The language solved problems I didn't know I had, but the tooling invented problems I didn't know were possible"
