Working on a (very) low level programming tutorial because even if A.I. will do the programming for you, you still need to understand the full stack to be a real expert.

Even in this age of AI , Google and other instant source of information, I still find it useful to create printable summaries. May be I will never read it but having written it gives me confidence in my knowledge and my capabilities to understand things. Learning #raylib

@adhd-alien.bsky.social Your book is herre, on my bookshelf, between @maliki.com @sarahseeandersen.bsky.social and @shyle.bsky.social 😃

Multiplayer Snake game in #pygame ... here we go again

How I use A.I. : I enter a prompt, look at the generated result, analyze why I hate, then create on my own what I wanted.

Et n'oubliez pas camarades belges, demain je passe chez vous (à partir de 18h pour les dédicaces, le concert à 20h, et p'têt finir les dédi si on a le temps ensuite !)

42 days to go!!! So happy with how the cover turned out, posting a making-of soon! Pre-order available in most book stores: linktr.ee/adhdalien

I am making quite good progress with my multiplayer Snake game. But as usual there are some strange race conditions that on rare occasions cause unexpected behaviour.

I am always amazed of the size of a game today. 112GBytes that's huge !!

Creating a multi user snake game using #pygame and #websockets

A frozen moment in time 📸 This image, taken at the feet of the most recently launched Ariane 6 rocket, captured one of the most amazing moments: when the boosters ignited and lifted the rocket off the ground. 🎞️ @esa.int/@cnes.fr/Arianespace/ArianeGroup/Optique Video du CSG – T. Leduc #VA269

Now that was unexpected. There are similarities between #Haibane Renmei and #TADC (Some people have noticed the parallel between Rakka and Ponmi but I think there are also similarities between Jax and Reki )

This is how to implement a viewmodel in #WPF (I am pretty sure I will need this post to remind me how to do it the next time I try to implement MVVM)

@microsoft.com please solve this issue. This is becoming ridiculous that official google development tools are blocked. And the way to avoid the blocking explained by your own A.I. copilot gives useless solution.

Today: experimenting #golang and #ebitengine func (g *Game) Draw(screen *ebiten.Image) { screen.Fill(g.background) for _, ball := range g.balls { vector.FillCircle(screen, float32(ball.X), float32(ball.Y), float32(ball.Radius), ball.color, false) }

Trying to repair an old #fischertechnik transformer I was not expecting that the voltage variation was done by selecting one among six transformer secondary outputs The Transformer primary seems to be open : 😢

What's really amazing is that we went from simple 2D platform games like Chuckie Egg to 3D space exploration, trading, dogfighting Elite in less than a year, *on the same hardware*! elite.bbcelite.com

I needed a Dice I could thow without having a table so I made a #fischertechnik 6 sided dice.

Hominem Quaero....

Let's reorganize my 240V cables. I was not aware I had that many cables

When You have a new computer what is the first program you install?

Yeah... after less than half an hour tweaking the linker settings, I succeeded in compiling the #SFML demo program.

75.190Gigabyte ! In 2026 games are becoming ridiculously huge. Will the increase in RAM price make it more reasonable for the coming years?

Explaining to children how to write a Tetris game is more complex than expected

Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness...

Today, experimenting with #avalonia . This seems to be very easy to use if you know #WPF.

#infinitynikki 67.33GB that's a bit too much don't you think? This game uses more disk space than Fortnite 😰

A functional Tetris in less than 150 lines of #pygame

And here we go again... writing a Tetris with #Pygame

My Space invader tutorial begins to look like a real game. I know the graphics are minimalists but I want the children to focus on the game mechanics, not on the graphics

Sometimes a bug in your software can create an interesting behavior Like in this minimalist space invaders where the invaders move according a totally unexpected pattern

2 years ago, I was building a PID regulation using #arduino and #fischertechnik

I have made 5 of them 😀. Raspberry Pi Pico Game console with 16x16 led Display.

Love this! #retrocomputing #coding

What movie do you consider perfect?

PowerPoint is the worst tool to draw electrical schematics.

Most people want their game in 4K. Me: 16 by 16 pixels is enough....

Why does it feel the no one has ever heard of the movies I watch? (e.g. ソウタイセカイ : Relative Worlds)

I have written an emulator for my game conole with a 16x16 led display. Now I can debug the games without having to use the real hardware

Post a non-religious image you think of as holy

Am I making lots of breakout games running on #raspberrypi pico ?

I always loved High voltage lines. But this abomination is terrifying. High voltage lines design should never include lines that cross each other. Image source: Google street view in Osaka

Could it be that I am again building a game console with a resolution of 16x16 ? By the way note that is possible to saw an 8x32 led matrix in 2 8x16 matrix that you can put together to make a 16x16 display
