The "Noting ever leaves your device" text I think is an "eyebrow", a line of text above the header.

As the OP has "Aussie" in their name I think they'd be referring to the Commonwealth Bank of Australia Dollarmites accounts. They were shutdown recently after a watchdog investigation. It was locking kids into using the bank that would continue into adulthood and schools were getting paid to sign kids up.

"They found that it provided little value for children and the largest outcome was that children were being exposed to ‘sophisticated’ marketing tactics."

Great news!
I've missed Heidi after changing job and moving from MySQL to Mongo and then Linux many (many) years ago. Looking forward to see how it goes with Postgres and SQLite nowadays.

I've been working on a programing language to read and write Excel spreadsheets.
Or more accurately I've been writing a custom programming language and porting my library to it, so I can transpile it out to other languages.
Currently it is being transpiled to C++ and C#

I have some static websites on S3 and CloudFront.
I use https://goaccess.io/ to parse the logs and generate a html report.
As mentioned elsewhere in the thread, there is a lot of bot activity there, that using JS might cleanup a bit.
If you are interested, I have a write up of my setup here, with the report generation down at the bottom: https://gamestrut.com/Blog/2022-06-08-static-site-hosting-on...

I see this.
My assumption is its some kind of html/js cache, local storage across browser sessions maybe. And when you click an email it realizes it needs to update.

The display also supports partial updates, so you can just upload a few sub rectangles of what has changed onscreen. AKA "dirty rectangles".
You can get over 60fps depending on how much is changing, and since these games are on a static background, that's not much.

I'm not as jaded, I've been lucky enough to work at nicer places, but having made the same jump I would strongly recommend the same thing.
Either nights and weekends, or after a few years as a SWE you could just retire somewhere cheap and go nuts on your game dev passion.

I agree with what you are saying, except that "I AM ERROR" isn't actually a bug. The character is intentionally named that in Zelda II, even in the original Japanese.
