After being forewarned of death by Aegon’s visions, the Troupe returns to Nashkel to resupply and better prepare to raid the dragon’s lair. After a long night of prayer, study, and rest, they make their way out of town to face the dragon once more.
Preah Ko: Shiva’s Sacred Bull
Just to the east of Phnom Penh is Prasat Bakong, an area with three temples really close to each other. I thought this would be a good area to visit on my last day exploring temples.
Life is Strange: I Walk Away
I thought I had already seen the best of Life is Strange. But as I’m writing this I am walking away from the most intense experience I’ve ever had playing a video game.
Mixing in Some Rope Climbing
Recently I’ve been working on adding my own flavour of ropes to Minecraft, only to hit a road block.
The Vibe Coder and the Programmer
I’ve been thinking recently about how to best understand why “vibe coding” isn’t programming. Then I realised that long ago, a man named Aesop wrote a fable that explains it perfectly. I’ve always said that “rushing takes longer,” and that’s exactly what vibe coding is.
Battle of the Green Dragon
The Troupe make it to Nashkel only to find there is no dragon attacl. Knowing the town is safe for the time being, Aegon and the Troupe launch an expedition to hunt the dragon terrorising the area. They are joined by Conchobhair, an experienced dragon slayer.
Phnom Bok: Not My Namesake
As soon as I learned there was a temple called Phnom Bok, I knew I had to visit. How can I miss a temple that bears my own name?
Life is Strange: Chapter 3
After the harrowing challenge at the end of the last chapter, I’ve kept playing this amazing game. This week I played through the third chapter, discovering both the next chapter in the story, and the interesting ways in which the game utilises its core mechanic.
Giving Support to Modpacks
An interesting bug report I received recently involved a compatibility issue with another mod. There wasn’t anything inherently wrong with my code, but it does highlight something important in the modding community. We need to support each other so that people can enjoy playing modded Minecraft any way they desire.
Spider-Man: Brave New World
I recently watched Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and to give it a short review: I loved it. It’s probably the best MCU Spider-Man film to date, but there is one detail in the film that troubled me. And the more I think about it, the more sinister it feels.
