More vet visits for Henson since they're suspecting some form of allergy.
It's not cheap due to vet costs here are more inspired by the US insurance crap than any notion of universal healthcare. Which is bullshit. So would appreciate work. 🧵

This is an excellent analysis and matches my own thoughts. I was hoping someone with more development expertise could explain the use of ML/AI in Arc Raiders and unpack that both in terms of technical implementation and ethical impact on the broader industry.
The release of Arc Raiders has raised significant concerns about the ethics of utilising generative AI in a AAA game. It’s important we understand that for whatever gains AI delivers, who is losing out, and what impact does that have on the industry?

Sex ed is a notoriously underpaid field. Many sex educators work multiple jobs and don’t have access to employee health benefits. We're raising $40,000 to provide healthcare for our staff and volunteers so we can focus on what we do best: Supporting young people. www.classy.org/campaign/scarl...

I wish this story was less familiar, but it is easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle than for a studio exec to enter the kingdom of heaven.
3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.
