Patel mentioned in the announcement presentation that the device was originally developed with a very clear focus on high school students.


The official GDScript language documentation is here:

https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tutorials/scripting/g...

Registering gdscript.com and boasting about its search ranking is just gross.


Where is the boasting? Did I miss it?

It is confusing that gdscript.com is not the official domain of the language, rather of a language enthusiast, but quite honestly, that one is on the Godot team.


On the About page.


Oh, see what you mean now.

I still think the main issue is that the Godot team didn't buy the domain, if they did none of this would have happened.

With that said, the site looks kind of like a language's official site, so it can be quite confusing for people wanting to learn GDScript, who aren't familiar with the official docs.


Why is boasting about this gross?


Focus the chat input and press Cmd + Shift + Enter. Creating a "text snippet" in this way is not as nice as syntax highlighted fenced code blocks would be, but at least it's easier than uploading a file.


Or /snippet works too


You're right. Here's a decade-old TechCrunch article about this:

I'd like to politely challenge your assumption that accessibility concerns are relevant only to a "proportionally very small percentage of the population". It's a common myth in this space.

Disabled people represent between 10% and 20% of the world population, and that's not even including those who don't identify as disabled but would nevertheless benefit from more accessible technology. If you've ever adjusted the text size in your browser or enabled captions while watching media, this group includes you.

> You'd need get permissions for that.

I'm afraid not. HTTP GET on a collection endpoint (which is the operation represented by the list verb) returns the full object content.

Interesting, thanks for the reference. This is at best surprising, at worst sloppy security design IMO.


I agree with this. Also, have you seen the kcp project? Seems like a promising experiment.

I just cut out avocado toast and now I'm well on my way to 150k!


How much is an avocado in the US?


About $0.60 for a small one, up to $1.20 for a large one.

Why does he then use his own voice to breathlessly repeat debunked rumors about left-wing activists in Portland? You think he'll correct the record in the next episode?

While he probably should retract that there is a lot of false information going around. I think people are conflating this guy https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.thepostmillennial.com/arson... with Antifa. But he just appears to be your run of the mill crazy arsonist.

Also it's worth pointing out Antifa did go around starting fires. Mainly in cities, burning down businesses and police cars.

He used to go around saying the moon landing was fake but did a 180 on that. So he might yet retract his claim.


(Washington, left-wing activist, forest fire): https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/police-arrest-puyallup-man-...

(Oregon, arsonist, forest fire) https://thepostmillennial.com/arsonist-arrested-after-using-...

I haven't found the trifecta of ('Oregon', 'Left-wing activists', 'forest fires'). But I wouldn't have written an article making a claim that it definitely didn't happen. "falsely claimed" and "debunked" are unjustified claims themselves.

We are living in a strange time where many people think they know more than they do.


Excuse me? Where is there "left wing activist" in the Puyallup brush fire? (Not forest fire, but whatever.)

The article just says it was a streamer


Fair question (I've upvoted you). Here's more detail on the person that started it: https://heavy.com/news/2020/09/jeffrey-jeff-acord/
