What a title song, too.

That’s incredibly cool.

First time I’d seen it (or anything) recorded live. Lovely atmosphere. Felt like a cliche but “it’s smaller than it looks on TV!”

I guess we’re the happy few to ever see the celebrity ad at the end of the “lost episode”.

They even *literally* got the band back together!

Scott’s post got me interested, but this has really attracted my attention. “Dad RPG” sounds right up my street!
👴🏻🎮💪🏻

That seems like the best way! Maybe we’ll do the same.

Hopefully the sound mixer woke up, at least! I doubt it though.
It was like they got Bane to read out a dramatic script and then put loud music over the top.

We turned on just as Jack Whitehall was finishing his intro. The 75 years montage was “fine” in a corporate sort of way, but most of what I said above was inspired by the Kick Sauber intro/reveal.

Switched off and watched Shetland S01E01.

Having played through this “back in the day”, stepping into the VR version on the Quest was amazing. Being “inside the game” with the added nostalgia factor was truly something else.

It’s a properly good port of the game, too. Played it all the way through.

It’s apparently been around for ages, and newspapers have been doing (and avoiding) it for > 100 years.

Hi Andy! I’ll definitely have to find a way to play this. Great that you’ve found your way back to your baby.

Those afternoons in Caltec playing TW were a blast!

You: “Should the computer players hold grudges BETWEEN rounds?”
Everyone: “YES!!”

Good luck!

Maybe ChatGPT models have enough prior art to give you a decent answer if you ask them the high end problem. Maybe start with something like “I want to synchronise a list of items and the item selections between my code and the UI”.

I’ve been away from it a few years, so I’m a bit rusty.

Yeah, I don’t really know the JS works you’re coming from well enough to smooth your transition that much, I’m afraid.

What I will say is that the XAML frameworks are heavily biased toward data binding rather than manipulating the controls directly. IIRC list selection binding was a bit painful.

That would be great! My company has gone all-in on Linux (Ubuntu) as a dev environment and I’ve been disappointed about potentially missing this sort of thing.

In case it matters: Our dev environments are not internet connected, so you’d not see telemetry even though we have 100s of devs.

Sorry… I should also say that slnx support coming to the SDK is great news!

Is it still the case that only the 1xx series will have Ubuntu packages?

When I had to work in JS-land and it was all “just keep creating new derived collections every time anything changes” I was horrified!

When I was working with WPF I fell in love with a library called DynamicData. It lets you create collections derived from other collections with LINQ-style filters, projections, etc. Changes in the source magically ripple all the way through data binding to the UI.
