    Midnight had a question about our episode of "how the GC heap comes into existence"! Do you know the answer?

    Boss fights also seem to be more prone to hard crashes. I've had a few where I had just about won, game crashed, and I just moved on to another game. I think they're less play tested, use special one-off game features, and push the graphics cards harder.

    It feels more jarring now that open world / free exploration games with branching storylines are becoming more common. After a few hours of creative play, I'm shoved into a heavily scripted fight scene.

    This is one place where bad save point implementation pops up, too: lose in round 3 of the boss fight and get sent to the cutscene before the fight.

    There are some games that make them fun or reward creativity. And some games where the boss fight is really integral to the story or game mechanics. But for a lot of games, it feels like a gimmick, with one scripted series of steps you have to suffer through.

    Things programmers believe: People only live at 'official' addresses People have exactly one address No one homeless ever used a computer People never change their country No one has a mobile phone from one country but lives in another.

    This weekend's bread haul: one sourdough round, one gluten free loaf. Had to cheat with a bit of baking soda on the gluten free loaf but a solid start.

    I hate boss fights. My least favorite part of any video game. Takes me out of the story and ruins the fun. Give me a Skip Boss Fights button, or a Happy Fun Platinum Premier version for $5 more that nerfs the bosses. Boss fights aren't fun.

    Really great performance post. I didn't know calling ToString on enums was using reflection. Will use nameof in future.

    We *finally* finished designing the new networking abstractions for .NET 5 and beyond. This was a multi-year effort in API evolution and experiments.

    A tribute to Tom Hanks as screenwriter, and to all the military advisors. It makes a big difference.

    Greyhound movie is quite good. It's refreshing to see that level of quality & accuracy in a military movie. Navy lingo was perfect. More important: interpersonal communications btwn ranks were spot on. None of the hokey "Sir yes sir!" & "Permission to speak freely sir" cliches.

    It bothers me that I still can't find this song. From the comment's it's a BTS remix called The Ladder performed by Honi, but unreleased or something.

    Because Twitter is of course the best place to go for financial advice: Why are VA mortgage rates higher than conventional now?
