Readit News- Unity seems promising but they have a weird version of mono running things and not so recent C# features available. Might be a non issue.
- Godot seems more promising for my use case but I feel like they want you to use GDScript. I don't want to use GDScript while there is a perfectly capable C# engine there. Is .NET second class in Godot?
- MonoGame was basically abandoned for a long time. I wonder if it got any better. That might be a little too much "code first" though.
Stride.. I just heard it the first time ever. Its a shame. And apparently it is a proven engine especially in VR space. Jumped on it, unfortunately no macOS support available so can't dig in right now.
Gemini 3 worked much better and I actually committed the changes that it created. I don't mean its revolutionary or anything but it provided a nice summary of my request and created a decent simple solution. Sonnet had created a bunch of overarching changes that I would not even bother reviewing. Seems nice. Will probably use it for 2 weeks until someone else releases a 1.0001x better model.
> From the beginning of the development, id had requested from djgpp engineers that their DPMI client would be able to run on djgpp's DPMI server but also Windows 95 DPMI server.
I'm pretty sure that "DJGPP engineers" is just one guy, DJ Delorie. DJGPP was always open source so I bet he got some contributors, but if the rest of this sentence is true that "id has requested from djgpp engineers", it just means they asked the maker of an open source tool they used to please add a feature. I wonder whether they paid him for it or whether DJ just hacked it all in at id's request for kicks. His "about me" page suggests he does contracting so might be the latter.
DJGPP was spectacularly good back in the day. I didn't appreciate at the time what a monumental effort it must have been to port the entire GCC toolchain and runtime to DOS/Windows. Hats off to DJ Delorie!
So I just took a look at DJ’s website and he has a college transcript there. Something looked interesting.
Apparently he passed a marksmanship PE course at the first year. Is that a thing in US? I don’t know, maybe its common and I have no idea. I’d love to have a marksmanship course while studying computer science though.
At some point there were teenager girls calling me (no idea how they got the phone number). I started acting like they called the right person and there would be happy screams on the other hand. I guess the high point was that. I decided that might not be a good idea though. Would definitely continue if my “fans” were middle aged men.
Current implementation has the following limitations:
Maximum object size: 65534 keys
The order of object keys is not preserved
...
These limitations may be lifted by using more bytes to store offset pointers and counts on binary level. Though it's hard to imagine a real application which would need that.
It needs to be the very first key in the object. I’ve been bitten by this because postgresql’s jsonb also does not preserve the key ordering.
I believe the latest .net release addresses this but key ordering does matter sometimes.
Things like https://jsonlogic.com/ works better if you wish to expose a rest api with a defined query schema or something like that. Instead of accepting a query `string`. This seems better as in you have a string format and a concrete JSON format. Also APIs to convert between them.
Also, if you are building a filter interface, having a structured representation helps:

For quick and easy http requests, httpie has been fantastic.
