Footy Director

Me too, its better than me at it.

Don't be fooled, you will still code most of the time. Speaking from experience.

I still have my copy from the late '60s somewhere, it was a school English class read.

The Grumpy Oaf YouTube channel is now live, hosting precisely one intro video featuring yours truly. Just had a bout of flu, so now I no longer look like a ghost, the YT sausage machine shall enter full production.

He worked at Ocean, a couple of his mates joined us, I met him a few times. He did provide the Z80 system we used.

Remember how big the stand alone 10mb hard drive was?

Patience, I had it last month, worst in years, but I recovered after few weeks.

I’m shocked how easy it is for ui. Why did I wait so long?

Tech Promised Everything. Did it deliver? | Scott Hanselman | TEDxPortland YouTube video by TEDx Talks

Hey friends! I did a TEDx talk and it's now up on the TED Conferences YouTube. It's possibly the best and most important talk I've ever done.

I would ask that you watch it, and please SHARE it broadly and widely. Thank you! youtu.be/dVG8W-0p6vg #AI #Tech #TED

Gitkraken is the best imho, the AI commit messages are really good.

Pacman was also excellent on the Beeb.

Work nights and use off peak tariff 😀

Ever selected the 'US Minor Outlying Island' instead of 'United Kingdom'? been tempted.

I have decided to port Football Director from C# to Swift and eventually design a SwiftUi front end, no real experience of Swift but its an itch that must be scratched. CoPilot really helps with learning a new programming language.

Fab to see this lovely feature in @pixeladdict.bsky.social - thanks for coming to the event @pdmon.bsky.social and hope you can make our next one on 22nd May in Leeds! Great to see superstars in shot including Simon Iwaniszak from Red Kite Games and @footydirector.bsky.social there too.

Hi, yes sad occasion but I will be there

Sorry to hear mate, I joined the club last week, like you, taking a break and then see if anything pops up, if not I will continuing tinkering with FD. Take care.

I used HiSoft Basic extensively on Amiga and ST, still got a lot of source code will try and get that running again. C++ I’m using a vs code plugin which includes winuae emulator

Back to the future, now I have more time I’m investigating c++ on the Amiga!

Sorry to hear that, seems no one is safe? I finish on Thursday, sort of feels like the right time. Back to concentrating on Football Director.

If you are seeing this - please share. If you are a #gamedev based in the North of England - you can join the Great Northern Games Discord discord.gg/kYJWaJZFyh
