[5:54][Debugging the asset packer]
|

[6:26][It seems that the asset packer does not process the space codepoint]
|

[7:45][The asset packer ignores the space glyph because it has no visible pixels]

[14:52][A table that encompassed the complete range of characters necessary to represent both ASCII and our target kanji would be massive]

[16:43][(Blackboard) Layout of the 1-D symbol lookup table]

[18:11][Easiest but slow solution: store the codepoints themselves for each row of the table]
|
||
|
|
[19:22][What about preprocessing every string to store the indices to the glyph tables instead of the characters?]
|
||
|
|
[22:02][Or we can simply store one big table that maps each character to its associated glyph index]

[23:03][Any objections?][quote 191]

[59:07][Q&A]
|
||
|
|
[59:26][@bkboggy][I noticed that you rarely comment your code. Your comments mostly consist of TODO comments. What are your thoughts on commenting your code, considering a lot of it is pretty complicated, unless of course you don't see it as such? Or do you think that since you write good code, it doesn't require comments to be readable?]
|
||
|
|
[1:01:59][@robrobby][Why was your first calculation of the GlyphTable index size too big (64k) and reduced to 2k, and still later went full-on 64k again? What changed the size?]
|
||
|
|
[1:02:54][@ijustwantfood][Would it be a good practice to comment after writing all your code for others?]
|
||
|
|
[1:05:57][@cubercaleb][Since the questions are slow today, when do you think you will write a proper RNG?]
|
||
|
|
[1:06:13][@pseudonym73][Or a real hash function?]
|
||
|
|
[1:07:06][@jameswidman][My comment-writing rule for a while has been: "code should clearly tell you what is being done; comments, if you need them, should only tell you why"]
|
||
|
|
[1:07:55][@drmumba][How long have you been coding (years)?]
|
||
|
|
[1:08:03][@abnercoimbre][When will you implement the chocolate wine fountain?]
