Always listen to Marissa, but especially if it’s about colors (or whales, or death, or food).
My biggest tip for coloring is think of it like an equation:
Decide your most important factors, what limits that, what draws attention to that, then build everything else around that.
For instance: This object is the most important and must be orange.

I enjoy Dan’s words. You prolly will too!
I sure would appreciate it if you spent about 20 seconds of your Friday signing up to get my writing sent straight to you. It's free, it's fun (sometimes), and it would mean a lot: dansinker.com/follow/

I feel like it’s well past time for baseball to wake up and understand this economy can’t handle a World Series. It’s time to move onto a World Trade Paperback as the norm.

I hear this also works on folks at other outlets too!
If you can trick a NYT journalist into saying (or spelling) the word “journalism” backwards (“msilanrouj”), you can banish them, for a time, to the nth dimension.

Should a government’s purpose be a mechanism for us to help each other exponentially to grow and prosper and thrive?
Or should it instead be to hurt most of us through punishment, and strife, and suffering for the entertainment of the worst of us?
That’s it. That’s the whole philosophical divide.

Sometimes I seriously think about creating a “writing style code of ethics guide around ML/LLM/etc.”, that I’m sure most will ignore but at least is a sign to point at every time someone does: “This ‘AI’ discovered—”. NOPE. “ChatGPT made this—“ NOPE. “This LLM harmed person—“ NOPE NOPE NOPE.

I’ve realized while attending yet another #RoguelikeCelebration how much I wish we had the same event for website crafting.
The degree of depth, seriousness, and fun that everyone brings to any Roguelike topic shows curiosity, love, and respect; but I struggle to find the same in website spaces.

I will be mulling over this talk for a WHILE.
Tune in to @roguelike.club in 3 hours for my talk about the analogy between physics and procedural generation! We'll see how generators can be solid, liquid or gaseous and why –just like Maxwell's Demon– designers are underrated little guys. 🍵🫖

🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

Lately, I’ve come to ask myself “what would Erika do?” as a regular guidepost, and it continues to be a solid approach.
In addition to posting a link to one wikipedia article a day to boost their traffic by 3 hits or whatever, I am also going to post a daily reminder to refrain from amplifying bad messages, even to dunk on them. This reminder is also for myself.
Don't amplify lies or outrage bait.
