Early on I spent a lot of time fussing about how to organize functions, methods, class names, constants, etc within a single file. “Does get_a go better near get_b or maybe set_a but what about …”

At some point I started lumping them together (functions go next to other functions, constants go next to other constants) and sorted the lump contents ASCIIbetically.

Haven’t looked back since, really.

I try to respect conventions in someone else’s code, but I’ll always drift towards ASCII order.

@thegibson rando: “I think you’ll find how things work here if—”

The crypt door opens. An ill, dusty wind blasts fetid air from inside.

A fell voice echoes

@genehack documentation is a great spot for contextual lumping. With code, unambiguous is better yep.

There’s music playing and I’m sort of wobbling around to the beat. I don’t like dancing but I enjoy rhythmic movement uh wait lemme rephrase that

@thegibson @capnseasick rggh.

he’s been a clout-chaser trying to fluff up some kind of inferiority issues and no clue what to do with the actual community building through his tools since six months in at best.

@thegibson @capnseasick perhaps a bit more strongly worded than necessary, but yeah vibes are why I ignored my dot social account until other people started showing up in 2017, and vibes are why i nuked said account in favor of here.
