Saw an ~11% improvement in incremental build times (for minor changes) in #rust under #Windows 11, when moving my project and CARGO_HOME to a "Dev Drive". (Thanks for the tip mastodon.gamedev.place/@sleepytea !) More info: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/window... #rustLang #bevy #gameDev

Jart has created some awesome concept art for Grabby Aliens. #screenshotSaturday #gameDev #indieDev

Smoke from fires in NW Tasmania made it to all the way to Hobart this morning!

How good is using emoji to help with identifiers? I totally would have thought these were the same #bevy entity if I didn't have emoji! My #rust crate `hashmoji` does this if you're interested! crates.io/crates/hashm...

Any ideas when #WebGPU will be stable on #Firefox and #Safari? I can only find FF discussion mid last year that it is few months away: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4115... www.webgpuexperts.com/webgpu-firef... There's a tracking wiki but hasn't been updated: github.com/gpuweb/gpuwe... #gameDev

If you're wondering why I just followed you (and don't know me), I just followed like 50 people that I follow on X via a browser plugin called "Sky Follower Bridge". Worked well!

Made a separate account to post random stuff about this new prototype so I don't spam this account too much.

Programming is hard. #gameDev

Bestagons.

Updated my #rustLang hashmoji crate to support Unicode 16.0. crates.io/crates/hashm... hashmoji can deteministically generate an emoji string based on some input value. Much nicer than looking at UUIDs/ULIDs/etc. For example: let emoji = hashmoji::one(value); assert_eq!(emoji, "🌀️");
