What we got: A medicore redditor that read every wikipedia page with marginal comprehension and really wants you to like them.

We don't use generative AI at either Minor Key Games or Question. Partly on principle, and partly because we're really good at what we do.
We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA.
Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

Another lingering question I have about all this: why did Deloitte even have access to the Department's AI tools - when it was meant to be doing "independent" assurance of the unlawful mutual obligations system?

I just fundamentally do not care about what the CEO of Nexon or Tim Sweeney have to say because they are simply not qualified to discuss the issues they're talking about.

Kill List is what made me a fan of Wheatley but A Field is absolutely his masterpiece
we watched A Field In England for @allisfullofgore.bsky.social Sunday matinee, and it fucks. A confident mix of horror, comedy, absurdity, and tragedy, it incorporates mysticism and occultism, psychedelic drugs, homoeroticism, awful violence, resurrection, and tableau vivant. It's an experience.

People are often like “it wasn’t a coup, it was completely domestic, take responsibility for your own failures,” ignoring the undisputed facts that Kerr was a director of a CIA front and Gough literally said Carter’s deputy Secretary of State visited him and apologised for the whole thing
Wikipedia's featured article today, "1975 Australian constitutional crisis", concerns the Dismissal, the infamous Anglo-American coup d'état of the Australian government. Go read it!

I'll entertain technical arguments about the Summary Offences Act (NSW) when someone can explain how Police can kettle and move on small groups protesting climate issues but somehow this out front of state parliament renders them powerless. www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...
What we just witnessed was state-sanctioned Nazism
What on earth did the NSW Police think a rally organised by the National Socialist Network would be about?

Makes me think of MAO II where DeLillo is talking (in 1991) about how terrorists now occupy the space novelists once held. Novelists once dangerously influenced mass consciousness, now they don't, and terrorists have seized their role.
Oates is from the last generation still trained to kill.

having a fun django problem where the cached db connection keeps being closed while the tests are running and the advice is to ensure you flush them with a close_old_connections call before the failing statement so i traced through our byzantine code to the failure point to find one already there

It's a well known fact that video games peaked 30 years ago with a Space Invaders sequel where Ultraman Ace uses the crosses of Planet Golgotha as cover while shooting down Kaiju but it's nice that everyone keeps trying anyway
