cdelsolar··on Return of the Obra Dinn: spherical mapped dithering for a 1bpp first-person game
also another issue is that I accidentally (spoilers) got into the final vault very very early in the game, completely by accident (I didn't realize how accidental it was until I was actively trying to get back in later in the game). That was a bit unfortunate, because all the end-of-game exposition mostly confused me!

I really regret ruining Outer Wilds for myself, I had to look up a few solutions because I was very stuck, but I should have kept trying. Part of the issue, which I vow to never have again, is that I kept underestimating the creators, since it was an indie game, I figured that there was some parts of it that might have inelegant solutions, but no, don't make this same mistake! Outer Wilds is perfectly designed. Everything is solvable with in-game clues, but you're going to die many times in the meantime.

same here! Incredible game, I am saving it for a few years from now. I was obsessed with it for several days during the pandemic and solved all the puzzles but still remember a little too much of it.
cdelsolar··on Ask HN: How is AI-assisted coding going for you professionally?
i really don't understand why people keep thinking this. i'm easily 10x more productive since Claude Code came out. it's insane how much stuff you can build quickly, especially on personal projects.

cdelsolar··on Claude Code is being dumbed down?
I don't know why you keep insisting that no one is making any money off of this. Claude Code has made me outrageously more productive. Time = Money right?
cdelsolar··on Over 36,500 killed in Iran's deadliest massacre, documents reveal
it's about preaching to the choir. I think it's an atrocity what happened to those Iranian supporters. But what's the point in posting about it? Everyone else thinks it's an atrocity. We have no power to change things in Iran.
