Tadc finale was cool. I liked it. I really liked all of the dialogue in Jax's flashbacks, and Caine coming back was a cool surprise I wish they had lingered a little more on the initial revelation about the brain scans, and not had Jax's abstraction be so abrupt, but I figure those were cut down for time in order to give the stuff later on the impact it needed. Also a happier ending than I was expecting, but not a bad thing. I like how it wrapped up. Also fun to have some theories confirmed, haha. It was a fun ride!

I learned a new concept

Graceful degradation is the ability of a computer, machine, electronic system or network to maintain limited functionality even when a large portion of it has been destroyed or rendered inoperative. The purpose of graceful degradation is to prevent catastrophic failure. (Tech Target, first result on the search engine)

[biglawbear]

Literal opposite of planned obsolescence. I love you graceful degradation.

[gallusrostromegalus]

Oh neat the first time I heard of the concept the guy described it to me as "catastrophic functionality".

He was talking about it in the context of designing robots that would go in and stop nuclear reactor meltdowns, something that would 100% destroy the robot, but they would be designed to keep functioning and fighting the meltdown for as long as possible. He had some designs where over 80% of the robot has died and it was functionally dragging its corpse around by its one working arm because one more minute of functionality might save thousands.

I've been having a few bad years mental health wise, and thinking about those robots a lot .

[maddie-2022]

This is also why NASA missions usually keep going so long after schedule. They are *masters* of graceful degradation, able to keep machines limping along on minimal power and after sustaining heavy damage

I will forever love you kinger and ragatha 💖💖💖

Мы копали могилы, это и есть наш дом

Корни резали руки, кости стёрлись песком

Моя и твоя кровь смешалась в болоте, и все же

Такая любовь нам подходит*

*We dug graves, this is our home Roots cut our hands, bones were ground down by sand My blood and yours mixed in the swamp, and yet This kind of love suits us

The flip side of the necessity of being willing to block for trivial reasons is that you also have to be willing to follow for trivial reasons in order to avoid curating yourself into a pit. Every so often you've gotta look at a random like or reblog and be like: "Natalie, eh? That's a good name, Natalie – excellent mouthfeel. All right, let's experience Natalie's world."

Well goddamn

being a bandwidth-conscious web game dev means i basically restrict myself to pre-CD-ROM standards in terms of asset sizes. the other day i had to justify to myself a background image weighing in at a hefty 40kb

[orteil42]

extremely sweet replies on this but i have to mention how much this approaches an actual compulsion for me. it even affects how other games make me feel. i boot up some big studio game with full video cutscenes and every line of dialogue voiced and think about the gigabytes of game data churning through my laptop god knows how many times per second and get a little nauseous. they had games like that in the late 90s mind you

[orteil42]

exposure therapy: i will make the first terabyte video game

"Since the day he was born, Cain, despite his best efforts, wasn't able to please his God's expectations and was put aside, like some other mistake in a vaste univers of his creations..."

"His younger brother, on the other hand, Abel, was more talented than Cain could ever dream for, so much so that even his God loved Abel more than he ever did with Cain...."

"Cain, in a spiral of jealousy, hatred, and pain, killed his younger brother Abel for being everything he could never be and having the love of their God that he always dreamed of having..."

"Cain thought that his God hated him before, but he was wrong. That God despised him so much that sentenced Cain into eternal solitude for the rest of his now immortal life for taking away Abel. He cursed him, and now every soul that tried to stay close to him for too long, tragedy and loss will always follow them and Cain for as long as he existed, no matter what he tried to do to escape that destiny...."

"However, Cain never gave up. While he keeps his existence, and thus his punishment, he tries his best to please his God and gain his love with offerings and prayers. Maybe then, one day, he will not be cursed anymore and could love and be loved by someone and never be alone again..."

".... but his God had other plans for him."
