Why am I programming in Jai on my streams lately?

I really like that I have a much smaller account in here than in other places. It's very quiet and I can have reasonable conversations with strangers.

Made a short (5 minutes) video about my recent experience with SVN www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ15...

When a front-end dev tells me his design is pixel-perfect but I can clearly see it is not

Since some people asked, this is how I did the Chromatic Aberration hack.

i spoke to my subconscious. it replied. "stop calling me, you weirdo" wonder what it means..

I made a custom player to showcase works of cool chiptune artists on the breaks of my streams. I was thinking what to do when a music file can't be loaded. I decided to still display it but apply some glitchy effect. Not the best, but it's my first time.

hello computer! we are running a game jam! it starts right now, and ends on July 17th. it's not a contest, so feel free to go at your own pace it's a little bit strange, though. we're trying to make a collection of "microgames" (think WarioWare)! there's a link in the replies! ok thank you!

One day I will allow myself to relax.

Here's a look at my Famicom live performance in yesterday 100% 2A03 (: 昨日はこんな感じでやってました！ 音も映像も良くて楽しかった⚡️ VJ by Rui8bit @ruikaj.bsky.social #function_draw #Chiptune

Typical Linux Users when you ask them how to do literally anything on Linux:

Background paintings for Nobody (2025), dir. Yu Shui, Shanghai Animation Film Studio

Polish is a very expressive language

We are cooked

Sloppy way to find all the static local variables in C code: 1. Iterate all the C tokens, 2. Maintain the counter of the nested curly braces, 3. If you see the `static` keyword within at least one layer of curlies, you found it!

This chair was bought from IKEA before it left Russia due to sanctions and shit. Which makes it a rare artifact of the pre-2022 era. I could probably sell it for millions and finally retire from streaming.

I like how both X and Bluesky are absolutely deranged platforms but in their own unique ways.

More Snufkin

I like how the industrial process of producing sodium hydroxide at some point moved away from using mercury cathodes because of their toxicity to asbestos diaphragms.

Attempt at Snufkin

I just realized that black gun powder can be probably used as fertilizer. It's a mixture of nitrate salt, charcoal and sulfur. All of which are good for plants.

My new song is out! nu11.bandcamp.com/track/melt-m... #Chiptune #Famitracker #trackermusic #8-bit #nes #electronic

Tried to sketch Tails from memory

Literally "I just vibecoded a website, check localhost:8080 " kind of joke

This is literally how LLMs work

People often ask me why do I choose to do pre-increments in my for-loops instead of post-increments. The answer is actually very simple. I don't fucking know, stop asking me that.

I made a Hash Table in pure C that you can just use like this:

I decided this is gonna be my new profile pic. If you don't like it, well too bad. I already lost the previous one.

What I discovered by letting my normie relatives use my laptop is that if you use Linux with i3 window manager you don't need a screen locker at all.

STEM is like LGBT but with nerds.

omg this is great! Thank you whoever drew this!

OpenSSH is the best git server.

I've got a simple level editor working for my Software Rendered 3D Game

Man I'm watching Tech YouTube videos from ~10 years ago and they feel like a window to such a radically different world. People used to care about shit.

Cool insight about djb2 hash function from the Hash module that is shipped with Jai

TIL libc provides a weird useless function called "index". I discovered it by renaming a local variable "index" (reasonable name for a variable) and having my code successfully compile but with a warnings saying "dude, you are comparing int to a function". And I was like wtf.

Inspired by @tsoding.bsky.social I've ported my OpenGL C++ Flappy Bird clone to wasm with HTML canvas, instead of using Emscripten. It was a fun journey making the game and engine platform agnostic. From Emscripten to Wasm - Flappy Alien a-nameless-ghoul.itch.io/flappy-gl/de...

In a somewhat recent Tsoding stream, I've heard about venation pattern algorithms, and tried to implement one (Runions et al.). You may try it yourself at chalier.fr/generative-a...

Did this sketch recently. Still haven't found any motivation to color it or whatever. Maybe one day I will. Posting it here just in case.

It's very telling that the bright picture of the future today is called *Retro*futurism.

Somebody discovered my Crust videos 🥹

The idea to name type Void as U0 in HolyC (the language of TempleOS) is kinda genius if you think about it. Its size is Zero, yes. And it is Unsigned because being Signed requires at least one bit. But the size is Zero. Checks out.

Oil lamps are incredible technology

Is there a portable (POSIX/Win32) diff utility that is literally just a single diff.c file which I can copy-paste to my project? Similar to xxd.c?
