  • I feel the same way about durability but apparently usb-c is rated to 10,000 insertions. Idk though. The lightning port has been very solid in regular use but I can’t say the same about the usb-c ports I’ve known.

    Eventually wireless charging will be the standard so it might not matter as much for phones.





  • I used a tutorial book to help me create a python text game, then I rewrote it and have been casually adding things. I sort of want to re-write it again in Java to see how it compares, I’m more comfortable with java so I’m hoping I could focus more on system design. I’m noticing that the more I add to the base game the more spread out my solutions become, so addressing that is the main interest I have with it.

    A new project I’m working on is a simple web scraper. I liked building a lexer/parser in the text game and I think having my own web scraper would be useful.

    I’m still learning so I aim for projects I can ‘finish’ in 2-4 weeks.

    Oh and a windows notepad that looks like the windows notepad except more customizable. I like the idea of building utilities.




  • I made the argument that it’s expensive but it was more based on the idea that I can get a cheapo used console with a few games and that’ll do me for a whole generation. That and I think that PC gaming has a deeper void to get sucked into (mainly keyboards and monitors)

    But now a couple weeks later and I realize that I really enjoy my crappy business desktop PC and I could see building a PC in the future.

    They each have their advantages. When I go to a friends house we play console. At home I’d rather play PC, if I had the choice.
