The Best Guess Is That They Are So Desperate That They Might Even Get A Dude To Be The Queen!!!

The best guess is that they are so desperate that they might even get a dude to be the Queen!!!

Fun fact: The danish queen put in her two weeks notice during her new years speech

My husband loves me a lot... despite the task I make that :p

Me, in a jolly mood, once again forgetting to do volume control: "GOOD MORNING HUNEY!" Husband ( In the most loving but tired voice ): " Stop screaming in my ear... you... colossal... moron."

Like... You know how sometimes when you hear people speak you can HEAR the punctuation mark at the end of that sentence. It was NOT a exclamation mark or no punctuation whatsoever.

It was not "moron!" or "moron" It was "moron."

This is freaking amazing. And I think you are making good choices in simply cutting away what is not working so you can make your deadline.

I am still curious though.

Power banks are freaking temperamental little bitches ( There is NO standard for when they should give charge, other than the vague " When a phone is connected" ). How did the environmental sensor not like it?

And did the programmable RGB have a datasheet to explain the logic of how to address LEDs?

And would it be possible to adjust the addressable LEDs by powering them with a PWM signal? ( IE, is it powered by 5V? )

Servo skull integration is underway!

I have run a few tests and the core functionality seems to be working fine - so I can press the button and it'll take a picture with the camera embedded in the left eye socket, briefly illuminating an led that's in the right eye socket and playing a buzzer briefly.

The green led turns on when the program I wrote is running, and if it's connected to a network the orange led will also turn on(so I can tell whether it's accessible to get the pictures off of it)

So it should be all good for MCM London on Saturday at this rate, just need to check that the cranial casing for the left hand side won't affect the picture too much

Had to remove the environment sensor as it didn't like that it was being powered from a power bank - so no temperature alert when it gets too hot for me(It was going to light up the remed if the temperature got above 30°)

Also had to take off the programmable RGB array, as whoever wired that integrated circuit was clearly on a great many things when they designed it - Trying to just access specified lights was madness. The first led was accessed through (0,1) whilst the 2nd was (1,1) and the third (6,0). And having all of them on made it looks like the skull was about to self-destruct with how bright they are

Stop teaching top down!!!

So I am trying to learn GoDot because... Well, a game engine can make games, sure... but it can also do a lot of other things when you realize it really is just a GUI renderererer (help! How do you stop spelling renderererererer???) + physics engine. Anywho, so I started following the "official tutorial" (In quotes because I am honestly not sure... It is a big open source project so it can get muddy). And... Once again I am faced with a tutorial that teaches me the larger constructions and the orgenization before telling me anything about how the smaller bits work... This is called top down teaching. And it works, WHEN (And ONLY when), the person you are teaching, are already familiar with what the smaller things can do. It can work when teaching someone who already knows object oriented programming, functional programming. They already know how functions, variables, processes and code execution works. It does NOT work when people haven't gotten the faintest idea of what these boxes and structures you are describing are. We do not teach kids algebra before they know division and multiplication. When writing tutorials like this you cannot write for everyone. You have to go with assumptions of the majority. And it is not a great idea to assume that the majority of the people who tries to learn GoDot are veterans of game development. Sure, your tutorial will be slightly better for veterans, but you have just made sure that newbies have an even harder time starting learning your engine... Whenever I start feeling like I have a solid grasp on this, I will start a tutorial on this... BOTTOM UP!

And code coverage is not at 100% ( Making it useless) and the company says there is no time for making automated tests because we are too busy fixing all the constant bugs

Fun fact. Markdown... is a markup language

If you do not know what markup is... you should look it up. It is basically HTML that works both encoded and as clear text. Meaning it is the perfect note taking "language". In reality it is "just" a convention for how to write super nice-looking notes that have been tested by millions of people to be the very best it can be.

No big deal.

Oh also it is free, you do not even need a special program to look at it. Your browser can do it perfectly.
