Nintendo’s own timeline is the authority here (Hyrule Historia and their chronicle page). The fun part was rethinking how to visualize it. It branches at the end of Ocarina into three eras depending on whether Link wins or loses, so each era is its own thread on the cloth. T...

Spec First with IBM Bob

I believe many of us have heard about the "Spec-First" approach—driving AI development with a list of specifications and breaking down coding tasks from them. Context I have an existing project that is broken or...
