re: UNIX philosophy is
@aescling i absolutely am planning on doing this level of complexity when i get around to building my encyclopedia software (and i'll look into sblg to see if it can help with that) but for a simple static site it's a lot easier to just regenerate every file on every make and not worry about any of the rest of it
re: UNIX philosophy is
@aescling yes, assuming that git ignores all build output you can do a subshell call in the makefile to get a list of targets and use that to build a bunch of rules for making those targets from their sources and then use a subcall to make to see if any targets are out of date before allowing a sync
or you could just touch .grass
re: UNIX philosophy is
@aescling you read my blogpost right
re: UNIX philosophy is
@aescling nice, i already coordinate all my static site generation with makefiles
re: UNIX philosophy is
@aescling i have not
re: UNIX philosophy is
@Satsuma has heard me go on long rants about how static site generators are failing indies because every single time it’s “how do i teach the program how to make the thing i want” not “how does the program help me teach my computer…”
every time you switch programs it’s just an entirely new set of fucking rules

re: gender controversies in gaming, ranked
@aescling @coriander Dark Samus is a Metroid (specifically: the Metroid Prime [combined with Phaazon and Samus’s DNA]) and it's unclear whether Metroids have a gender (not all Metroids can develop to queens, but it’s not clear that this is a sex distinction as we would conventionally think of it)
official media typically uses “it” to refer to the Metroid Prime but “she” to refer to Dark Samus, which leaves open the question as to whether Dark Samus has developed a gender identity or sexed aspects as a result of her adopting the form of/some DNA from Samus
re: sheik/zelda
@aescling @coriander from the cinematography i think Hyrule Warriors definitely expects you to Know but also that game is also nearly a decade old at this point
sheik/zelda
@coriander generally the consensus is that it is NOT a spoiler in melee since i'm pretty sure it's revealed in the opening video
sheik/zelda
@coriander my very diplomatic reply was « oh if you haven't played super smash bros melee for the nintendo gamecube zelda and sheik are the same character »
