HarriettMB<p>Hilary Benn, another Brit, getting a full and unfiltered view of Loyalism and Unionism. Their bigotry, sectarianism and ignorance is a shock to him. <br>Welcome to the world the majority of people endure in these occupied six counties. Perhaps Mr Benn now understands why we would really, really prefer a United Ireland, and why the building of Casement Park matters. <br>See my second post below, for the hateful intransigence of the loyalist activist.<br><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Think32" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Think32</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UI</span></a> <br><a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5yrpj189y9o" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5yrpj</span><span class="invisible">189y9o</span></a></p>

Clarissa | making Enigma Heart<p>Working on adding support for two joypad bindings per action, which is something I should have done from the very beginning. Having to retrofit this into my existing system is more work than it would be if I had designed for it from the start.</p><p>The column will be neatened up and better aligned; this was just me throwing the second set of icons in there super fast to test it out.</p><p><a href="https://gamedev.lgbt/tags/GameDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GameDev</span></a> <a href="https://gamedev.lgbt/tags/Programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Programming</span></a> <a href="https://gamedev.lgbt/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UI</span></a> <a href="https://gamedev.lgbt/tags/UX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UX</span></a> <a href="https://gamedev.lgbt/tags/EnigmaHeart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EnigmaHeart</span></a></p>

Clarissa | making Enigma Heart<p>For the Steam Deck's screen, I figured it's important to make the button icons as high contrast as possible, with the glyphs taking up as much of the button face as possible. Readability, you know.</p><p>Anyway, I actually *really* dig the aesthetic I accidentally came up with.

HarriettMB<p>Unionism and Loyalism’s finest turning out to honour the murderers of a popular show and members. These are the people who don’t want Irish [our native language] on signage, don’t want GAA to be available to all, and complain daily if anyone even mentions the idea of a United Ireland. <br>These are the people Micheal Martin Taoiseach and leader of Fianna Fáil thinks he can appeal to, with his softly, softly talk. <br><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Think32" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Think32</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UI</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/MiamiShowband" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MiamiShowband</span></a> <br><a href="https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sunday-life/news/hundreds-at-parade-for-miami-showband-bomber-50-years-after-uvf-massacre/a1928128333.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sunday-</span><span class="invisible">life/news/hundreds-at-parade-for-miami-showband-bomber-50-years-after-uvf-massacre/a1928128333.html</span></a></p>

WildRikku<p>Worst <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UI</span></a> I've seen in a while. The button says "scroll down for more concerts". When you scroll down you see a list of concerts and wonder how to buy tickets. What they mean is: scroll while hovering over the dates. Suddenly, a scroll bar will appear and reveal that there are more date buttons! wtf. Browsers need to stop hiding and websites need to stop using scroll bars ffs.</p><p>Anyway. Kochkraft durch KMA are fantastic. Check out their album "Alle Kinder sind tot" (all children are dead).</p>
amen zwa, esq.<p>Small- to medium-sized businesses should shun the massive web <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UI</span></a> frameworks and application services being peddled by BigIT, when developing their small, internal-use business applications intended for use by a handful of in-house business analysts. Instead, these companies should use <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Smalltalk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Smalltalk</span></a> (Pharo, Cuis, or Squeak) to develop such software. Smalltalk has tonnes of advantages—not to mention decades of track record—for implementing enterprise applications:</p><p>• It is purely OO with decent FP facilities (it is the precursor of modern OO-FP hybrids)<br>• Its simple syntax can be described on a 5×7 card<br>• It is easy to get comfortable with, so much so that generations of preteens have used it in classrooms, so an experienced modern programmer can pick up the language in mere minutes<br>• It is powerful enough to implement itself, its libraries, its UI, and the whole blessed OS on the Alto<br>• It is the progenitor of the MVC pattern and, since IBM VisualAge, all modern implementations use the time-tested MVP pattern<br>• Its persistent VM obviates the need to export application state to external persistent media like file system or relation database (the VM is the application state, as it were)</p><p>Pharo Smalltalk, sponsored by INREA, is my favourite. Its creator, Stephan Ducasse, is friendly and accommodating, and is a prolific writer.
