That being said, CSS frameworks are still wonderful, used right they can save a lot of time during early development by outsourcing the majority of design to the framework devs.

That’s actually my intent with using a CSS framework. A personal project of mine reached minimum viable product statud status (phones…) recently, I included bulma, and used some of its components for stuff like menus and modals. It was definitely faster than writing everything by hand early on. But I also ended up writing my own CSS anyway, especially with the grid, which is the foundation on which my app works on (it’s a grid-based colour mixing app).

I agree, I think CSS frameworks have a place for prototyping and we shouldn’t rely on them as a project moves towards a proper release 🤔

Then again, some people might think the obfuscation in 20+ classes is somehow a good thing…frankly, I think it’s worse than inline styles. It’s basically obfuscated inline styles!

My reasons for taking notes is basically “yes” to everything you mentioned.

Recently, my notes came in handy when I finally submitted my project as a final project for an online course I was taking. It spanned about 4 months of start and stop progress so a lot of my initial thoughts would have been lost if I hadn’t journalled about what I did on days I worked on the project.

In my last job, I would take notes of what I’m doing by hand. Or sketch out plans of what I want to do with the internal tools I made just so I’m not wasting time or falling into the trap of feature creep.

I also do it to practice writing.

I’ve done most of my note taking in Obsidian.md (and I sync them with git), but sometimes I leave notes in a private Discord server if it’s something I want instant access to.

Not making a game yet, but I want to thank you for bringing this up! I wanted to make GIFs of my app’s howto clips and this looks like it’ll fit the bill.

If you don’t mind me asking, why this scorekeeper? The fact that it isn’t open-source leaves me hesitant to dig around in the code.

This talk of tolerance reminds me of something I read^[1]: Tolerance is a peace treaty, not a moral obligation. With this line of thought, the intolerance of intolerance stops being a paradox and makes a whole heck of a lot of sense. Intolerance broke that peace treaty before it even entered into it, IMO.
