If you don't understand the significance of this number: 70 is the number of stars you need to beat the game

@mcc One of my all time favourite games, the early thing with the sunbeam in the hallway is genius.

@mcc Small hint: if you get the red coins in Bowser In The Sky, you can get the last star you need to beat the game

@leona but the 70th star gates Bowser in the Sky, it doesn't gate Bowser? or is this a joke

@mcc been watching agdq so unless you get 120 stars blindfolded in 2 hours I'm not impressed
(yes,some person did this last year)

Watching the GDQ 70 runner relay
What if when the run hit 69 stars I just walked into the other room and beat the game

22:57 from press A to booting 69-star save file to "time". Note this would have been a 22:58 on a real N64 due to the Analogue 3D running at 60 FPS
I was slowed by lack of any planning, aborting an 8 coin star halfway through to get a different easier star I realized was open, and because I am actually bad at the Bowser fight! Not sure this was a very effective spirit bomb. At any rate time was wasted, and that is always the most important thing

Charles Martinet thanked me so much for to playing his game.

Anyone has a recommendation for a phone cover vendor? Android, so no need for Fancy magnetic thingies.
I broke a few screens over the years dropping my phone and I'm thinking maybe I need it :)

@futurebird Also, I tell junior devs to think back to science class. Every change you make to code is an experiment; your hypothesis is that the new code will be somehow better than the old. But you can't put too many variables in an experiment, or you won't know which changes mattered and why.
So test often. Test after every line of code if you have to. It sounds annoying but it's much easier than the avalanche of bugs you get when running 1000 new lines the first time.
Go slow to go fast.

@futurebird i think Microsoft in the 90s set up this attitude towards computers that still lives today: “it’s your fault if it doesn’t work”.
I never had to use Windows — ever — and every time I would sit down to try, something glaringly bad would be right there interfering.
And I’ve been a dev and UX person for nearly 40 years.

Yes, that's exactly what I did! I already posted a couple of answers, but after looking at the whole thread I realized I didn't really understand the question. Yes, I think this is the answer to the question.
-
@futurebird oh I see, indeed this was with university students, I've never teached computer science to younger students so I'll read what others have suggested. But at any stage of learning, I completely agree that some fun being involved greatly greases the wheels :)
-
@fortunos @futurebird pretty funny if you can pull it off. Can destroy some kids though.
-
@futurebird Some of it may be the lack of confidence in being able to fix it. I have seen devs who, as soon as they hit an issue, immediately look to make it someone else’s problem, so I fully support teaching them how to debug.
I like the idea of giving them buggy code. A lot of being a developer is finding the mistake the past developer (often yourself) made. :)

@futurebird
Thank you for asking this. It made me feel useful, and brought back good memories now that I'm retired. Something else it made me think of was students' reaction when I'd come over to help with a problem they'd been struggling with for a while and point right at it. They would be all amazed and say how did you do that, and I'm like, well I've seen it hundreds of times. 😄
