[2:03:48][@eerrman1][Q: Where did you learn programming, like this :lighting stuff, previously?]
[2:06:53][@smack_ssbm][Q: Which parts of the CRT do you think are the most poorly designed or unnecessary? What do you feel is missing?]
[2:09:15][@euphius][Q: Did you learn new things about game programming while working on [~hero Handmade Hero]? If yes, what?]
[2:10:36][@ablindorphan][Q: Can you imagine any debug tools that would make stuff like graphics programming and :lighting easier to debug (especially for beginners)?]
[2:15:35][@bulmanator][Q: Is it possible to get cl.exe and msbuild without installing Visual Studio?]
[2:16:07][@enemypanda][Q: How do you split your time between learning theory and practice?]
[2:16:37][@erik_ava][Q: How many hours did you expect [~hero Handmade Hero] was going to be at the start?]
[2:18:30][@mariaberry][Q: Are you planning to do another series after you're done with [~hero Handmade Hero]?]
