Won a few awards in my time but none mean more to me than this stupid thing. Awarded to me by the sound design team at Traveler's Tales, because I went behind the producer's back and fixed some audio problems.

"Single Sign-on" sure except every service has a different system and they're all a pain to use and there's a million redirects before you get to where you want to go and you actually sign in 30 times a day. Today's frustration post brought to you by Microsoft and Atlassian.

This is nuts. A web-based IDE for 8-bit games development, with integrated C compiler, emulator, and *source level debugger*. It all just works. 8bitworkshop.com/v3.12.0/?pla... #retro #gamedev

"Where Do You Want to Go Today?" Microsoft rolls out the hype train in the Sampler section of the Windows 95 disc, blasting you with multimedia vibes. The days of the DOS prompt are over. It's time to open some Windows and let the future in.

We are hiring at Nixxes for graphics and optimisation programmers. In my biased opinion we're a great bunch and the graphics/optimisation team is full of talented and caring people. We care about one another, the players and the games. Sounds trite, but it's true ❤️ #gamejobs www.nixxes.com/jobs/

What got you into #gamedev ? The ZX Spectrum +2 and its accessible BASIC backed by a comprehensive manual is where I started. Then the copious type-in listings from magazines and library books. STOS the Game Creator made me believe I could make viable games. Turbo Pascal improved my coding skills.

Interesting bug. 'const' is not just syntax sugar, the compiler may take it as a hint to hardcode any references to it and will not allocate space for it within the .data section. Address of "value2" (non-existent) is actually address of value3, then we trash 4 bytes of memory.
