#introduction / #introductions

Hi, I'm Mikayla! I live in #somerville (MA, USA) and build #vsmac #developer #tools for #dotnet on #mac. I'm #gamedev adjacent and one of my side projects is a #mono #csharp plugin for #ue4. I also love to make things, especially #silversmith #jewelry and #cosplay, and my interests are too numerous to list 😁

I wrote about my feelings after my recent surgery https://mhut.ch/journal/2018/09/15/reflections-after-surgery

Hiding and suppressing your feelings for years strongly internalizes a lot of inhibitions. I may look like I'm doing okay, but I still can't talk about things like this unless I'm in a safe space or pretty damn drunk.

It's easy to blame myself for not being strong enough, and I do. It's not fair, but there isn't any other individual I can hold responsible.

I have one regret in life: staying in the closet for 18 years. My teens and twenties were a shadow of what they could have been. Give others the passive and active support and acceptance I didn't have.

Wonderful to see so many people rallying to protect transgender rights #YesOn3

Google Maps labeling algorithm, what are you doing?!

Happy Friday!

If there's a lot to unpack here, it's because I'm an efficient packer

It's becoming increasingly hard not to just go make art full time until my savings run out

Happy Tuesday! Though it's still exhausting to go anywhere, I've started going into the office a bit again 😅

Additionally, more unsupported or conflicting constructs will be skipped with a warning, instead of erroring out unless explicitly denylisted.

The binding generator is using the new ScriptName/ScriptMethod metadata so a few types and members have been renamed or relocated, but this should make future upgrades easier by fixing conflicts.

It's a little delayed due to my surgery, but I finished upgrading MonoUE to @UnrealEngine@twitter.com 4.20 😁🎉🎉🎉

Ever woken up with no memory of your dreams but a vague and abiding sense that something awful happened?

My @PlayOverwatch@twitter.com Mercy statue arrived! 😍

Again I prove myself completely incapable of cooking in moderation. I was just trying to use up some eggplant and peppers...

The squirrels keep eating all the tomatoes though 😞

Remember those planters I built a couple months ago? 😁

I use it all the time for C#, so kept instinctively trying to use it in XML files, and got so annoyed it didn't work that I implemented it 😂 https://github.com/mono/monodevelop/pull/5334
