Good manga, anime, and music albums/EPs I came across in 2025.

To improve my coding experience, I redesigned my keyboard layout and got rid of my pinky pain. If you're dealing with something similar, read on. Specifically, I adopted virtual layers and Home Row Mods. Over long-term use, I also arrived at a symbol layer design that works well for me. I implemented the design with Kanata, a cross-platform open-source tool.

This article uses UE source code and comments to walk through the network replication process in UE 5's server-client multiplayer model.

UE 5 uses a mark-sweep garbage collection strategy, with support for incremental collection and cluster-based counting optimizations. This article walks through the UE 5 garbage collection source and summarizes some of its programming patterns.

These are personal notes: a lightweight introductory resource for non-UE developers and people with no multiplayer development experience. Topics include things to watch out for when developing with Rider, commonly used UE C++ classes, garbage collection, and multiplayer networking concepts and features.

This article briefly introduces how to use bevy_reflect to serialize and deserialize Components (to TOML files), including how to insert deserialized reflected values into an Entity. Along the way, I use the custom scene serialization in 猫方块 as an example.
