Not spicy at all. People who do this are actually just amateurs. Anyone who has actually worked hard on games for a long time knows that *any* game is incredibly difficult to make and respects the craft. People who do this are real losers.

I watched this (youtu.be/TMoz3gSXBcY?...) on the abuse of LLMs & 'vibe physics' by @acollierastro.bsky.social - well worth a watch! - and I was struck by how the back 15 minutes (the 'thought train') also summed up neatly what it has been like to be a public-facing historian, even before LLMs.1/

I'm not going to use the word binge in relation to watching TV. Or really in relation to anything. It's not a positive word, it doesn't conjure feelings of joy.

I'm reserving my best posts for my own social network now and it feels like I've figured something out. Feels good to feel like I'm contributing to something valuable that will last. It's something I've been missing.

Here's an example of the kind of scam you get when you register a company. Looks like a legit government wmform but it's just a scam trying to get you to pay for something that is actually free to file. The company name is "501-CORP".

What do people use for gamedev version control today for small/medium/large projects? I thought the medium/large were still Perforce, but I'm hearing that many people are using Git+LFS now?

I'm lichen this!
Did you know there's a whole subsection of bluesky that's just people posting photos and information about lichen? Stuff like that feels like the old internet survives to some extent. (e.g. @lotuscat.bsky.social @fungiwithbengi.bsky.social @peterbraubach.bsky.social
I think I have my first record of Punctelia borreri in Hannover. On the slanted wooden roof of a playhouse, on a shaded playground. #lichen

You can despise someone's politics and also acknowledge a tragedy when children die. Children are not responsible for the actions of their parents and they don't "deserve" anything but love and care. If some gloat over people dying in the LA fires, doing the same thing makes you the same as them.
