This is a big one technically it came in multiple parts over the last few weeks and I forgot to write an update about it. Here are the major changes: A living galaxy Project 4 now has a procedural generated galaxy with a decent bit of depth for the generation code being written in [ ]
I stumbled across this Reddit post about 30 minutes ago. I m a Starset fan, and I didn t know that there was a dark things game, so I decided to go play it. It was so simple that I assumed that the other top scoring players must have written bots. After dying, I took a look [ ]
Project 4 s design calls for a somewhat complex HUD with quite a few menus and elements. While Bonetree already had a UI framework that was decent, there were quite a few things wrong with it that made it felt janky to use. So, I ve spent the past few weeks rebuilding it. Problems with the old [ ]
A couple days back, I heard some people complaining about Firefox. I didn t really think much of it. Today, I read the new terms of service and and immediately stopped using Firefox.

Before Logseq, I was using the Notes app in Nextcloud, which stores your notes as plain-text markdown files, just like Logseq. This [ ]
FRC s 2025 game was unveiled today! I m super excited for the upcoming season. Today, I went to Auburn High School with around 30 other people on my team for the kickoff event. This year s game seems much more challenging compared to any other robotics challenge I ve had. Last year during Crescendo, we set new records [ ]
A little late, but whatever To start off 2025, I redid Acei.us. I m pretty happy with how it turned out! I decided to go with a more minimalist look, and I took inspiration from Bear and Werc s appearance. Once again, I created a new a custom WordPress theme, but this time I actually took time [ ]
