Embedded engineering, computational chemistry, molecular biology. Etc.
Of those, Engine programming is a good fit; I do a bit of embedded, and non-game 3D graphics

Nice! Maybe it will have Chrono support and easier overrides.

I'm thinking about doing the same. I use Bincode for saving and loading settings, application state etc for some Rust PC programs. Have been seeing red flags from Bincode for a while. Will probably make the switch.

Ok. I have done a lot of different types of programming, but game dev scares me from what I've heard. Should I screw around in the Unreal Editor for fam?

Blue Prince of Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. This are outstanding games from 2025. Of course, the choices expand when you go back further!

Thanks; bought a copy. This aligns with one of my software projects.

I definitely do this! `Git commit -am "sync"`
Or: `Git commit -am troubleshooting X` where X is a git-based deployment system for websites

To clarify the context of my prev comment: I am not familiar with the Doxxing or Git History rewrites; my perspective is as a heavy bincode user who noticed some warning signs over the past few months. I have been mentally prepared for this, but don't intend to immediately switch dependencies.

I use Bincode on a few large projects. Will keep using for now, but have been on the lookout for a replacement for a while now. There were several [to me] red flags regarding discussions over Chrono and Heapless imlementations, and their SourceHut readme. @jamesmunns.com Sounds like PostCard time

None yet - I'm going to start reaching out for feedback in a month or so after getting the molecule editor and docking in a good state; would love to get more eyes on it to identify the shortfalls.

Have 2 related. 1: Who in the US House/Senate do you admire most? 2: Who (in the House/Senate) do you think would align closely with you minus a few differences?

I have to try this! I tried doing this and readying in the microwave, but couldn't get it to work well; the liquid would start boiling off while a blob of solid agar would persist in the middle. Didn't think to try the autoclave.

That's an exquisite count! I open a book every day or every other day, and will hit about ~6.

Blue Prince slaps! One of my personal favorites of all time. Blue Prince and KCD2 are both GOTY! They are too different to be mutually-exclusive.

Worst part of Windows. Sometimes it steals your Desktop/Documents etc folders without permission, and is a mess to undo.

That looks fantastic, and is why I didn't expose Python bindings for this module. I think mimicking its API may be a good move for simplicity.
