no problem! looking forward to the diss.

i'm always saying that youtube essays need better citational practices but this is not what i meant

tbh I am a little burnt out on the speedrunning beat so expect a delay before volumes 3 and 4. once i catch up to the current day i will probably stop.

we got a couple dissertations, a couple documentaries, a couple edited volumes, cosmic rays, twitch memes, and the challenges of English/Japanese translation

realized that u4 is 9 years old (!) so it makes a little more sense

hmm i guess short videos (10-20 mins) is what i would gravitate towards

that's true. my prototype was fairly simple so idk about larger projects. collision detection is what I found the most difficult coming from gamemaker, but i'm sure there's resources out there.

yeah

my frustration with godot has less to do with it being absolutely programmer-brained and more with the documentation. like sure I can staple together a bunch of tutorials to get something functional but I don't feel like I've really learned the best practices.

anecdotally when I TA'd a class in Fall 2023 i'd say 2/3 of students called the platform X when writing a paper about social media

also: i like navi's hey listen! that's my friend talking to me!! gotta play more oot at some point

some background music might've helped 🤪
