  1. Just finished #Sunderfolk. It's a fun little tactics game, and I really enjoyed it.

    It's a solid turn based tactics game at its core. But where it really shines is the worldbuilding and storytelling. The part where you talk to the NPCs between battles is where the game gets much of its vibes from.

  2. A quotation from Propertius

    There are ghosts after all, then; death is not the ending:
    the soul, like smoke, escapes from the funeral flame.
     
    [Sunt aliquid Manes: letum non omnia finit,
    Luridaque evictos effugit umbra rogos.]

    Propertius (50-16 BC) Roman elegiac poet [Sextus Propertius]
    Elegies, Book 4, Elegy 7, l. 1ff (4.7.1-2) [tr. Carrier (1963)]

  3. Lessons from #Pyre that Shaped #Pyrefly

    "Building a #typechecker is ultimately a deeply pragmatic exercise. It is easy to get lost in the weeds of type theory, but at the end of the day, we are building a tool that developers have to live with every single day. We chose usability over absolute soundness, and we built an architecture that embraces #Python's dynamism instead of fighting it."

  4. Not precisely a #pyre but it’s related to my mood this week. A day late here because I was flying and didn’t have time to upload (can’t do it reliably from my phone due to my cloud setup).

  5. Thought I'd try that thing where I just make art without antialiasing and call it pixel art. I couldn't help doing a little AA though; next time I'll try more dithering. 😜

  6. It's such a good case study on how removing elements from a story changes its context as well as how to handle plot beats in a non-linear order.

    Go play Pyre! Even if the gameplay is not your cup of tea, I promise the setting and characters are cool at least!

  7. 10: PYRE
    I don’t care for sports games or visual novels, but this fantasy sports visual novel really grabbed me. Only Supergiant could’ve pulled that off! Great writing and characters as usual, too. The story-based mechanic of dismissing your favorite characters early from your team made for some tough choices.

  8. I added Pyre 🔥 to my :python: linter Action , adding a 4th type checker to choose from.

  9. Is there any *good* type-checker for python? But I really mean a good one... I had bad experiences with mypy being not smart enough and even pyre-check can't handle `Optional` types correctly (similar issue with mypy).

    Should I just give up on trying to have a better experience with python and just accept the fact that it is an inherently bad language to type-check?

  11. When #rosehips turn red, I retreat to my #nest, lock the door. Hold on to the #key, don't throw it away. I enter my archives and come out #lopsided. What's to be kept, back on the shelves, things to let go of onto the #pyre.
