    Isn’t this practically the plot of The Nightmare Before Christmas?

    P.S. I know it’s not, but it could be the plot of a gritty reboot. A bunch of Halloween mascots are fed up with how Christmas is overtaking all of fall so they declare “War on Christmas” I’d watch it. Unfortunately I imagine this would be like a Seth Rogan and James Franco movie a la Sausage Party but hey I’d still watch it






  • I want to say it was Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon, but it very likely was the earliest Math Blaster, or one of the Reader Rabbit point and click adventure games.

    Possibly, it was that Barney game for one of the earliest Macs that came with a giant ball mouse to teach kids how to use a mouse.

    IDK, the first I remember falling in love with was Super Smash Bros. on the N64. It made me desperately want an N64




  • I learned C++ in my first handful of programming classes. The only other languages I learned for other classes included javascript, PHP, and MySQL. I was assigned a project to be written in Java but never learned the details of the language.

    At my current job, the system I work on mostly is all Go, and while I now know Go interfaces are not as novel as I did when I first learned they existed (because I had to learn Go), the mechanisms in Go for interfaces and goroutines just feel so cool to me that I can absolutely envision myself wanting to build anything well-suited for OOP in Go.

    But that would require me to be passionate enough about programming to want to do it more than 40 hours per week lol
