#Genuary #Genuary2026 #Genuary14 Prompt: Everything fits perfectly! Fit 9 squares of 9, 8 squares of 8, etc., inside a square of 45. A.k.a. the "partridge problem" (think of the Xmas carol). See the animation at amarillion.github.io/genuary26/

#Genuary #Genuary4 #Genuary2026 Day 4: LowRes Revisiting another classic. Drawing Bresenham lines in XOR mode, creating this pretty Moiré pattern. On #zxspectrum, XOR mode was an optimization, but with current tech, it's a performance hit as it requires reading bitmap memory, a big no-no.

#Genuary2026 #Genuary #Genuary3 "Fibonacci forever" - I went for a classic visualization of the golden spiral. Matching Fibonacci rectangles with a logarithmic spiral is actually rather finicky.

Starting off #genuary with a very simple animation. Genuary is one creative coding prompt per day, let's see how many I can get done in a month! #genuary1

How horrible is the user experience of setting up a new smart phone 🤮. Today I did tech support for my elderly parents who both bought a new smart phone - they were still on Android 9 and essential apps (banking) stopped working, so they needed a new phone. Here follows a rant 1/n

POV: you're a non-native developer in the Netherlands and you have to pronounce the word Buienradar 100x during your talk 😄 (No shade, it's a great talk by Neel Bhatt) #jfall

This takes me back... I'm here to speak at #jfall. But Wageningen is also my alma mater you know...

Last week, me on stage speaking about #i18n-puzzles. Thanks for having me @tweakers.net developer summit!

A recording of my #Devoxx talk is now available. youtu.be/XJMrMxlt-BQ?...

Tomorrow I'll be speaking at @devoxx.com about i18n-puzzles.com. Wish me luck! m.devoxx.com/events/dvbe2...

@remcoder.bsky.social and Joep Weijers kicking of the gezelligste JUG of the Netherlands at TOPdesk!

72h #GameJam time - coming weekend!

Tomorrow, I'm speaking at the #AmsterdamJUG about #i18n-puzzles www.meetup.com/amsterdam-ja...

Speaking of programming, I finished all 20 puzzles in i18n-puzzles.com -- a collection of puzzles focused around localization. Learned a bunch of neat tricks -- some of which I hope not to have to deal with (like puzzle 19). Thanks to @mpvaniersel.bsky.social for putting them all together!

I just released a new video game, BladeBlade 2! It was made for the KrampusHack 2024 gamejam, and has since received a few updates. All the art/music/code were made by myself using a custom engine powered by Allegro5. siegelord.itch.io/bladeblade2 #allegro #krampushack

The word is spreading. Over 100 people have already tried the programming challenges at i18n-puzzles.com #i18n-puzzles

Don't forget, it starts tomorrow! i18n-puzzles.com

It's almost here! Six days before it starts. Really curious to see how many will join and how many will make it to the end! i18n-puzzles.com #i18n-puzzles #i18n #codingchallenge

I created 20 programming puzzles 😀 The big reveal is in two weeks! Who's up for a challenge? i18n-puzzles.com #i18npuzzles #codingchallenge #programming #coding #i18n
