How difficult is it to start helping with Decomps?

Finished Dusk and the two Ship of Harkinian decomps and just would enjoy getting more involved.

I was looking around and saw some startup guides, but wanted to get a temp check before I dive deep into getting stuff setup.

I took a coding bootcamp a while back, and have to code things for work occasionally. I wouldn't say I'm proficient, but at work I do look at code on occasion and debug things.

I've worked on Java projects, but never C (which is what i've mostly seen as the main language, but I may be wrong).

So helping with a Decomp like SSBM - would it be something I could actually make helpful additions to in a reasonable amount of time, or is it something that would take months to get to enough of an understanding to start making helpful contributions?

▲ 13 r/whoop

Sort of annoyed by the "free trial", feels deceptive.

Was excited to get the Whoop band, their site mentioned a free trial for 30 days and you keep it if you like it.

Sounds fair enough, so I go through with it.

My friend mentioned it was odd I got a wired instead of wireless charger. I go and look at the tiers more closely to find out the free trial gives you a refurbished Whoop, and cheaper (less comfortable) band, and a wired charger instead of the wireless. But they you would still have to pay $240 for the year, but with like $50+ less value. You also have to pay $9.50 for shipping (which is fine and reasonable), $19 total if you ship it back - so not really a free trial as much as a one month membership to get stuck with a worse product.

Just feels a bit slimy. One of those "well you should of read the contract closer", but it's for sure something where they hope the customer doesn't actually read the details close enough.

I would of just bought the normal membership, so I'm annoyed that I now have to go through the hassle of returning it and either get a new one, or just swap to the new Google one.

LPT: Claude Code for Gaming Mods

I've never really got into mods for games before, but I was got really into Kerbal Space Program and saw there were a bunch of videos on how to install them, and something about a mod manager - and I didn't really want to tinker with all that. So I had Claude Code just do the research of what mods to download and had it install them.

I've done it for a few different games now, and it's been pretty clean.

Just thought it may be interesting to others.

I feel like if I saw this I would think it's super dumb, and I'm 99% sure it is - but also, it's philosophy haha.

I had a passive thought about how there is a spectrum of belief on consciousness from Panpsychism to Solipsism (open to push back if I'm thinking too narrow) - from every piece of the universe is conscious to only my entity is concisous.

But the real opposite of everything being concious, is that nothing is concious. But to say you as yourself isn't conscious, that would just have to be a semantically different meaning of the word, right?
