C itself is very unconstrained, and depending on your codebase primitives, it can be extraordinarily janky and difficult, or very clean and easy. Some C codebases are nightmarish (race condition / thread / allocation lifetime hell), and others feel like (more verbose) high-level scripting, but you just need the right architecture.

that's a very common, and unfortunate, trait of high IQ people when you're smart, you can immediately see problems with ideas, and pointing them out can feel validating but the real alpha is seeing the problems and immediately jumping into imagining solutions
why are all the smartest 18-23yo stanford/harvard/mit people such losers mindset about everything discuss any idea and they'll by default talk in great detail what things might not work, instead figuring out how to make it work

Checking out @SebAaltonen's PETAFAB: Bot Invasion, a hectic game where you must survive hordes of robots. First game with Seb's NoGraphicsAPI and SDF / Voxel / Ray Marching / Fluid Sim engine. Cool stuff if 99% of your gaming diet is AAA games with traditional engines. 🧵

how i see ambition. the inability to ignore imaginations. creating it into existence is the natural form. the vastness of the imagination demands an equally expansive evolution of the self.

I remade my website: sebastianaaltonen.com Includes full publication list with links to slides/talks, github projects and my blog. SquareSpace is gone. It’s a custom static page generator now. Faster and better.

This amazing! I wish group theorist (and creator of the finite automata 'game of life'), John Conway were still here to see this: cfsg.axiommath.ai/. 43M lines of Lean proof.

Happy International Artists Day to all the incredible creators out there !! I think art can be found in so many things we don't always think of as art. It could be the way you arrange flowers, how you cook a meal, or even the way you make a joke and post it No matter what you create from the heart, I believe it's worth sharing. Whether it's with your friend or for the world.. you never know where it might end up. Like this song for example - this is Canon in D by Pachelbel, and it was written in the 1600s.. and here I am in the 2020s playing it in my own style :) It's lived on for centuries ! You never know how far something you create might travel <3

Understanding is the noblest of pursuits. People who actively strive to understand are pushing against uncertainty. People who give up on understanding are willingly falling into chaos.
