That being said, CSS frameworks are still wonderful, used right they can save a lot of time during early development by outsourcing the majority of design to the framework devs.

That’s actually my intent with using a CSS framework. A personal project of mine reached minimum viable product statud status (phones…) recently, I included bulma, and used some of its components for stuff like menus and modals. It was definitely faster than writing everything by hand early on. But I also ended up writing my own CSS anyway, especially with the grid, which is the foundation on which my app works on (it’s a grid-based colour mixing app).

I agree, I think CSS frameworks have a place for prototyping and we shouldn’t rely on them as a project moves towards a proper release 🤔

Then again, some people might think the obfuscation in 20+ classes is somehow a good thing…frankly, I think it’s worse than inline styles. It’s basically obfuscated inline styles!

If you don’t mind me asking, why this scorekeeper? The fact that it isn’t open-source leaves me hesitant to dig around in the code.

There were legitimate reasons from a design standpoint. It’s badly balanced, the spacing is inconsistent…and it was everywhere.

Funny enough, I suspect what makes it a badly designed font might be why some people with dyslexia have an easier time reading with it. The badly balanced, poor spacing, probably made the letters in the font more distinguishable from one another.

If you (or anyone else that’s interested) have the time, I think this article, “Why You Hate Comic Sans,” goes over all of it pretty well.

Haha! Thanks for understanding 😄

Maybe give exercism’s Swift track a try?

Word of warning, I do find some of exercism’s “lessons” hit or miss. Most of the time, the exercises seem to expect more knowledge of the language than what was given in the “lessons.” Be prepared to do some searching, if the “lessons” don’t provide further reading itself. It does also provide the ability for you to unlock and peek at other people’s published solutions.

I’ll probably take some flak for my answers, but here I go!

Undertale

Maybe I would’ve loved it if I had got to the game before the fandom madness got to me. But to be fair, it looks like it’s visually designed to tap into that 80’s nostalgia, which would’ve bore me anyway.

Destiny 2

I used to enjoy that game (and Destiny). Played it way more than I’d like to admit. But as my anxiety got worse, the more I abhorred the way they force you into matchmaking for PvE content, then give you all kinds of reasons why you have to do those PvE content where you’re forced to play with random players. Then there’s the changes Bungie had made that made the game more and more hostile to me on a mechanics level. Lately, it also feels like they’re treating Destiny 2 as a money-printing machine.

Diablo 4

Because Blizzard. I had a whole rant but I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable. I simply will not give Blizzard any money moving forward.

If you’re not opposed to books and have an interest in gamedev as well, then maybe give Hands-on Rust a shot. After some basics, it covers building a dungeon crawler (roguelike).

Admittedly, I own a copy but I haven’t had the chance to go through it yet. I’ve heard positive things about it, though. Might start soon, wanting to get more in-depth with Rust myself recently.

The allegation section of the post is…wild. Good thing the dev had the presence of mind to record it. The audacity of the CEO to lie about what went on in the call…well, I guess I’m not surprised by that, but more surprised he got caught!

But I guess ultimately, how many people are going to hear about how easily Reddit’s CEO will lie through his teeth? How many will care? It’s kind of depressing to think about 😥
