Wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t even have a car despite his income and being in his late 20s. Hell, I wouldn’t even be surprised if he didn’t know how to drive and his parents just cart him around everywhere. He sounds like such a manchild in that video after all.

And I bet he also thinks hes too good to take a bus, cab (much less an UBER), or any form of public transit.

And new foamy vid, since Alex loves to spoil his game

Not 100% certain but I think the next easter egg might be a Kill la Kill one judging by the silhouette's shoulder pads, what seems to be that panties-skirt and weapon (which could be a scissor blade like in the anime). Just thought to throw it out here

He needs to keep his gross weeb hands off quality animu (well IMO its a good series :oops: )

This is offtopic as hell, but wouldn't you want to handle this sort of thing in a Switch? Something like this: An initial input sets it to a transition case, transition cases shuffle animations automatically on a timer as it handles and clears variables, finally hopping to a new "stance" case that reads user input. I've seen some of yandev's coding, and I can tell this is miles more functional, but I'm not sure if it's necessarily the best work. If anyone knows the answers to these questions, please let me know.

Sorry if this is off topic, I'm only asking because I thought he was completely against speaking about tinyBuild. Does an NDA stop you from speaking about the reason you signed it completely? Or is Eva speaking about the matter so casually on the discord because he thinks no one will find out?
 

Well, that's quite a telling revelation from YD. It seems the hyperbole regarding his lack of programming knowledge might not be hyperbole at all.

Conflating accessibility modifiers with the keyword "this" reveals a lack of fundamental knowledge that is shocking even in this context.

Accessibility modifiers like "private", "public", "protected", &c. are used merely to describe how the level of access external or derived classes have to the contents of a particular variable, class, &c. Something that is "public" can be, predictably, accessed and written by any external or derived class.

The keyword "this" has absolutely nothing to do with the accessibility of a variable, but rather is a keyword meant only to identify the given variable as the variable attached to the specific instance of the class in question. It's used primarily to prevent naming collisions between local variables (e.g., you could have two variables A and B named "variable" and then disambiguate them via this:

this.variable (A) = variable (B); (legal)

variable = variable; (illegal, compiler won't be able to safely determine which is A and which is B).​

There's nothing wrong with using "this" prolifically, and it's merely a stylistic decision as to whether or not it provides extra clarity or bloats the code with unnecessary information. Impossible to tell given the context of that screenshot as to whether or not the previous programmer knew what they were doing, but the practice of using this even when it's considered redundant by the compiler is not inherently a wrong decision (it's just really odd and rarely done in managed languages like C#).

The ultimate irony, however, is that YD has certainly been using "this" for all of his member fields (the ones he calls "public" fields), it's just that he hasn't had to explicitly type it in most situations due to the fact that the compiler is able to infer (and will write the this inline during compile time) the context in most situations. The entire theory behind OOP requires instance-based member fields, and so if he wasn't using "this" he wasn't using classes, which isn't possible since C# is a language that actually requires all code be contained within classes.

If this is indicative of the rest of his programming knowledge then it's highly doubtful he even would have managed to write anything even close to the game on his own before it would have imploded or he would have given up due to not understanding the error messages. It's far more likely that the entire engine is spliced code blocks poached from stackoverflow and other Unity tutorials.
 
I kinda wonder when that incident with the 'this.' additions happened, since the game was supposedly converted from javascript a while back and someone earlier pointed out 'this.' is mandatory in JS. I'm really curious what exactly happened with the Tinybuild dev now.

variable = variable; (illegal, compiler won't be able to safely determine which is A and which is B).

This is legal actually. The compiler just always assumes you mean the local if you're not qualifying it, and VS will give it the green 'i don't think your code is doing what you want it to be doing' squiggle underline.

Yeah, that's exactly right. That's a basic state machine and it's such a fundamental part of putting together behavior unity has a MASSIVE editor GUI devoted to it.
 
(:offtopic:) Talking about this "Puresu Horuda" student, I don't get how these kids can get attached to characters that don't have any original and special traits and a proper backstory.
I mean, I could buy low quality Unity assets for a character, change their color, make said character emotionless and then attach that to shitty anime tropes and edgy bloodlines, and they would still love it.

They aren't even mascot level. I wonder how many fans end up being kin with worthless bland characters.

Alex sounds like he doesn't even know if he can remove "this". He probably doesn't even know what it does.
"this" in Javascript is mandatory if you want to refer to the fields and methods of the current object, C# is smart enough to guess when you don't need it.
Since Alex didn't use "this" anywhere back when the games was in JS, it means that the game was not written in the object-oriented style (and probably still isn't). The TinyDev tried to fix it, but he failed, leaving the work unfinished. He probably wasn't very good either, he's probably young, maybe a decade younger than Alex. I also guess that he may have used an automated tool to convert the code to C# that decided to put all Alex' random crap into some arbitrary object and added all those "this" to refer to that automatically generated object. Probably because that's how Unity compiles Javascript, compare the two:

Original code doesn't use "this", decompiled code uses this everywhere.
Original code does "== false", decompiled code uses saner "!".
Decompiled code explicitly casts numbers to floats even when not needed.


Object-oriented programming is not equally important in all programming projects, but it shines if:
  • the programming language used has no other method for handling the expression problem
  • the program has a GUI
  • the program simulates multiple actors acting independently
  • the program's objects have complex internal state and have both some common and some distinct behaviors
YS fits all four of those.


TL;DR:
My guesses:
The game's code is badly and incompetently written, as if by someone who doesn't know anything about the language he's programming in. TinyDev converted it automatically from JS to C# and didn't clean it up too much. Alex doesn't know even basics of C# so he cannot clean it up himself.
 
What with all that YandereDev x Reader bullshit...
I got morbidly curious and googled YandereDev x Reader and ended up finding this trainwreck of a story. It's fucking hysterical. The bonding the reader has with Alex is sending a bug report, him sending back winky smileys, saving reader from a rapist because he's a """"gentleman"""", helping reader with math tests, and then necking, though apparently the reader doesn't know his real name before said necking.

Middle school and high school students are desperate as fuck, and it's only more disturbing knowing Alex is almost 30 and they just ignore that. They have to be only picturing the drawn anime version of Alex, because that's the only decent looking version of himself.

I fear for the sane ones of this fandom... Well, if there is any.

(:offtopic:, but just joined the farms. Been stalking the thread for a while and thought I may as well get involved. I already watched the video on Eva a while back, hopefully I’m not gonna miss anything too crucial)

Welcome to the Farms !

The Fandom is long gone... *sigh*
