December Ninth

09 Dec 2023 - Daniel Ramirez

What is the minimal amount of work for a productive day? How should this be measured? This is my way of saying I wasn’t able to do much.

Wins

I worked on refactor: move []chess.Square -> bitboard to func and happened to not actually commit/push it until time of writing, Mon Dec 11 12:XX AM.

This was pretty rewarding as it was a snippet of code I had theorized was possible for a while but did not actually write until I felt the highlighting feature was done.

Notes

A lot of my time on this day was absorbed with preparing for having guests over, so cleaning, last minute shopping, cooking, etc. All said this was a good day even if I didn’t finish the whole game in one night. Although it did result in me being very hungover on day 10. 😵‍💫

Next

    • design validation system (layout/style/content)
    • design menus (restart/exit/game setup)
      • Downwell, vitetris, Galaga, etc.
