it's decompile with undertalemod->find a shitty base64 string->convert to png->rearrange it so it makes sense ( it's unorganized 32x32 chunks of a 512x512 image ) and eventually you're sent off to some unlisted youtube vid and you have to use a spectrogram to see the letters that pop up from the audio.
Couldn't help but notice that these are the same "puzzles" as in figuratively every other fucking "ARG".

I highly recommend this talk if thats interesting to you.

If you aren't directly removing the polymorphic from the MDI, then what are you even doing? Insane behavior. I have 15 DEFCON black badges.

Mald never fails to amaze me. If your code needs 3 lines of comments for every 6 lines of code to explain what it does (or in the case of his array 1 for 1 kek), your code sucks. The concept of self-documenting code is about writing better code, not about writing fewer comments. Writing fewer comments is a consequence of writing better, more intelligble code.

Mald fundamentally misunderstanding or maliciously misrepresenting? You call it.

Also why is he worried about who looks at his code after him? I thought this was a one-man job and that these shitty habits were okay for a solo project?

There's always someone who will look at the code after you: the future you.
And the present you will not be available to explain the code to the future you.
That's why you leave comments.
 
Opinion discarded, retard edition.
How people can be this willingfully ignorant surprises me, although after all, shes a GG old timer like Ralph or Briana.


Code sperg but what retard in the Gamemaker dev team decided that "<= 0.5" being falsey was good language design? Are they retarded? Did Maldavius Figtree social engineer his way onto the Gamemaker dev team???
It makes perfect sense if you are using unitary everything, where your data range is [0,1], this makes it easy to make everything that is "at least halfway there" evaluate as true. This is quite common in many use cases to normalize your data ranges to [0, 1]
 
can someone explain the difference in self explaining code and commented code in a way a small autistic child could understand? I want to understand but this is like....I don't want to say 100% out of my depth, but at the edges of my understanding.
kinda like ducktaping and labeling wires so it would be easier to comeback to and work with after. because eventually you need to replug one of the wires into another socket or change the wire or some other shit
or you would have a complete mess of the christmas lights that you would have to backtrack to figure which one is which.

I think "labelling a bunch of black wires going through the same cable pipe vs using different colours of wires + labels for them" is more apt.

Forgive me if this seems "shilly" but postal 2 (the game used to make a lot of SKG / MALD memes, like the one where maldy gets shot) is currently on steam sale for 99cents for the next day or so. (normally 10$)

I figure its enough topic adjacent to be ok to mention. So if you want to make a maldy meme with a petition (tuesdays objective) its only a dollar. It also has steam workshop which is always nice

I just watched Warcraft 3's undead campaign and imagined Jason as Arthas and the ferret as Frostmourne.
