I'm impressed Songify got this out in... what? 36 hours?

If he didn't want the attention, he shouldn't have stuck his neck out.

As a kid:

- C64 BASIC interpreter
- Pascal

As a teenager/student/intern:

- Perl scripts
- Java
- x86 ASM
- C

20 years later, in video game development:

- C++ (/14, /17) for PC and console game clients
- HLSL for GPU shaders
- Python for support scripts and build systems
- Typescript/JavaScript for web client games
- C# for Unity games

Not me, but some of our backend server guys even use Go.

Early in development, Diablo was turn-based, like many RPGs and Rogue-likes before it. Then Blizzard South (the Warcraft team) pushed hard on Dave and the Blizzard North team to try out real-time combat instead of turn-based.

Dave didn't want to, but his team took a vote and Dave lost handily. He was surprised when it only took a weekend to rough out real-time combat and stunned when he realized how fun it was. A new genre was born.

HA! In all these years, I never noticed that!

See, I worked with Dave forever ago on Hellgate London. I guess his beard wasn't so grey then.

2 balls and 1 strike and he still gets the out.

I heartily second Amelie. My roommate at the time convinced me to go see it with him when it first came out.

I then went back and dragged along anyone else I could... 8 times.

Someone's an anti-yo-semite...

This is terrifying and extremely cool.

In Minnesota, you only disperse after the third pepper spray.

Nooooo! The video cut off! What was he going to say?!

This has aged very, very well.

If you haven't seen JoJo Rabbit, definitely do yourself a favor and do it.

Right, how many of you paused the video, then went and finished the puzzle? It's actually not hard past the first 3 or 4 numbers, thanks to the added constraints.
