ToDo List + Tetris (bricktris.netlify.app)
submitted 5 months ago by WheeGeetheCat to c/[email protected]

I made a todo list game that spawns a game piece every time you complete a task. I've been using it for an extra bit of motivation to see what kind of high scores I can get each day.

If anyone else wants to try it, feel free. No accounts or fees or anything. It's just for fun.

CHOOSE:

freedom of thought, but you have to learn to work with people you disagree with slightly or find annoying: left

uniformity of thought, but you are surrounded by bleating sheep and must bleat along: right

I really like it, I got excited. But ...can we please build some for sale units in walkable areas and not just rental units? This live-by-subscription bullshit is out of hand

Anyone sold source code? (self.programming)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by WheeGeetheCat to c/[email protected]

I'm curious if anyone has any experience selling source code. Not so much freelancing, but just selling code you've already written.

I'm living in medium to high cost of living area in the USA. I'm sick of the full-time employment - layoff - job hunt - full-time employment cycle. I don't see the employer / employee relationship getting any better.

Looking for other ideas.

Somewhere an Elon fanboy is explaining why this is peak free speech

Just imagine the outrage and slandering of entire demographics that would be going on if there were a gay couple instead, or if this was something that happened at a drag show.

Just something to think about when you see your 'christian' republican relatives play this down

We see you guys and you make us drier than the Sahara. Please grow a personality that isn't hating women

I was pretty excited to add storybook to my project, but after setting up my basic components like buttons and moving on to higher level components that render slices of state using selectors .... I have regrets.

Is it me or is it really hard to 'storybook-i-fy' react components using selectors? I found this tutorial on the Storybook site and it looks like the preferred pattern is to duplicate your store in your storybook file? That can't be right, can it?

Someone talk me out of taking Storybook out back and uninstalling it from my repo.

ah yes, refuse to fund the schools with taxes and let the religious institutions do it. This is why Americans are generally thought of as 'well-educated' on the world stage.

'people posting stuff you consider harmful' is not a simple, black and white issue. Anyone who pretends that allowing all opinions has no consequences is full of shit, anyone who claims that tightly policing opinions has no consequences is full of shit.

Like almost everything in life, you will have to navigate a tenuous balance between these two things and you will never know if you got the balance right. You are just a sack of meat doomed to die.

As someone who contributed to the 'high level of attrition' during a forced return to office: it was my pleasure and I'll do it again.

I like that he's being very blatant about it. If you haven't already adjusted the X social network into the same column as Truth Social in your brain, you should

This opinion is based on reading people's thoughts on the internet and remembering what I was taught in my own time in school (where they essentially stumbled into teaching that humans were some kind of 'peak' of the evolutionary process)

I think people have waaaaayyyy too much faith in human intelligence and it's leading to the destruction of the world.

1- People keep thinking a scientist or a 'rich entrepreneur' is going to come up with some magic bullet to save the world, if we taught more about how other animals have tools, language, larger and older and more complex brain structures than us - People might realize it's similar to believing that dolphin will arise from the sea with some idea to stop climate change

2- we keep participating in these systems that have been created under the assumption that we are 'making progress'. I would argue that the minority of human invention represents real progress.

3- It leads to undervaluing the earth and taking it for granted. We worship ourselves as gods (literally). Almost everything you have wasn't invented by humans. It was the result of billions of years of selective design. Yet we teach as if things we harvest from nature were 'invented' by humans. In reality, we often have no way to produce or even of conceive of these things without a natural example.

Thanks for reading

You heard the men. If we want a billionaire cage match we're going to have to get off our asses and lock them in the cage ourselves.

Anyone else noticing their profile always shows their most recent posts/comments etc as if it's right before the server downtime?

Reloading the page seems to show my new content, but I have to do that each time.

Apologies if its just me. I think it might be but thought I'd ask the community before going off on a troubleshooting spree

Hey all, I’d like to grow some garlic at home in containers.

Problem is I live near Phoenix, Arizona USA so it’s quite hot outside most of the year.

Anyone have experience want to share some tips? I noticed some garlic bulbs starting to sprout in my fridge and thought I might be able to start some indoors from that.


I dont know how to crosspost, but I made the same post here

if others come looking for advice and find this post, might be answers there too
