This article is so good and resonates so strongly with my own childhood: https://etodd.io/2023/06/27/making-games/ Me: Language evolves. What a word means is just how it's used today and prescriptivism is judgemental and harmful. Also me: You can't just call every fucking sine wave made with any synth or drum machine "an 808"! What the fuck is wrong with you? |
