The fact this was actually found in the Mario... 64 Source code Is fucking unsettlingshow more

A rare example of a cheat code in a... Mario game is found in Mario Golf on Nintendo 64. Entering a certain string of inputs on the title screen causes the "new lap" fanfare from Mario Kart 64 to play. All characters and courses (except Mario's Star) will then be unlocked for use.show more

Signs are famously frustrating to read in Super Mario... 64, with Mario punching the sign instead of reading it. In fact, this was such a problem that Z-Targeting in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was invented directly as a result of the team attempting to fix this.show more

Finally! A RAG over code solution that actually works... (open-source). Naive chunking used in RAG isn't suited for code. This is because codebases have long-range dependencies, cross-file references, etc., that independent text chunks just can't capture. Graph-Code is a graph-driven RAG system that solves this. It analyzes the Python codebase and builds knowledge graphs to enable natural language querying. Key features: - Deep code parsing to extract classes, functions, and relationships. - Uses Memgraph to store the codebase as a graph. - Parses pyproject to understand external dependencies. - Retrieves actual source code snippets for found functions.

The official 2003 site for Popsicle Minis ice cream... used the Super Mario 64 intro sound, awkwardly cut off to make Mario say "It's-a m-" As this was not a Nintendo collaboration, this sound was likely used without permission.show more
