  19. It seems stupid I have to go back to Toronto and get on an airplane when I can see New York out the window.
  20. Success! I found 10 extra cents, which means I can afford a negroni before my flight.

  645. Suspect snark can often be unpacked, with the right context and a following breeze, as a coherent criticism all packed up small.
  646. "not The Next Big Platform, but rather simply The Final Platform – the platform to end all platforms" oh jesus christ
  647. see! that was snarky! But I could expand it into a 300-500 word blog post if I wasn't going to watch anime & fall asleep instead.

  679. TIL that the C# null-coalescing operator ("??") doesn't work when referring to values left unset in the Unity3D inspector.
  680. (Despite the fact that "(val == null)" returns true, the type coercion rules are sufficiently different that it fails with ??
  681. (and, of course, Unity doesn't just return null, in order to give you a UnassignedReferenceException, rather than a NullReferenceException)
  682. Since @haikus_by_KN encouraged me to keep going, one final stab : And of course, none of this is documented by Unity at all.
