it will help solve many problems

And will make many jobs redundant.

If nothing happens after we die, what's the point of it all? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] sentient_loom@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago

it could be anything.

But you have to actually believe it. So the trick is to find your purpose, as much as it is to make it up. There's something in you that wants to come out... or maybe not!

A) There is no point.

B) The point is whatever you want, whatever you value.

C) Somebody keeps living after you, so "the point" is to pass things forward because "something" happens, to somebody else after you die. We inherit everything from our ancestors.

D) How should I know?

Our "justice" system is too light on 19th-century serial killers.

How have you defined base objects in your game? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm making an RPG in C++ and the items (loot/gear) will have immutable base versions, but then the player can get instantiations of them which can change with use and modification. These mutable instantiations will be saved in the DB. But I'm wondering if the base versions should be defined in JSON, or a separate DB (with the same schema), or maybe the same DB (seems dangerous), or if I should just hardcode them in C++ in the ItemFactory.

How have you approached this problem in your games? How do game engines do it? I'm using SDL2 so I'm doing most of these systems from scratch.

What are some fediverse apps that need contributors? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm a decent developer, but with only a couple years' professional experience and no formal training. I'm looking for open source projects to contribute to (ideally pick one or two and get dedicated to them).

I'm open to small or large projects.

I'm using this as my source of options:

https://fediverse.party/en/miscellaneous/

But I'm curious if there are other ones, or if you all have ideas about which ones are needing and deserving help.

Thanks!
