Executives are like very young children. Pretend to pull a coin from behind their ear, tell them it’s magic, and watch them become mystified.

Except children grow out of it. Executives invest billions into every hole they’re told is magic and expect money to come squirting out.

This has been underreported about Cookie's Bustle. The "copyright registration" that's been used for takedowns is just a website where you can say "I own this" with zero validation. It is not an actual copyright registration! It does nothing to support their claim
FYI their "copyright registration" is almost certainly bogus (it is not a real copyright registration). When they come for you, you should ask them to provide evidence of their US copyright and you will probably never hear from them again

We got all the hits:
- purchased by private equity firm
- hid a bunch of layoffs
- invested a bunch of money in AI
- tried to make that money back by ruining the best product it now owned

You better watch out for Cotton-Eyed Joe,
He knows your sins from 'long time ago,
He knows when you're sleeping,
He knows where you go,
He's coming to town,
He's Cotton-Eyed Joe.

I don't post this often because it's easy to come across as overly snide, but: folks, dismissively saying nothing but "too bad it's in Japanese 🤷" whenever somebody like me posts about an unlocalized game we genuinely care about is not exactly the most encouraging way to engage with our coverage lol

he was good at his job, his job was explicitly to destroy things so they'd be acquired and shareholders would make a bunch of money

this isn't an incompetent getting a payday, it's the guy who planned the heist getting the biggest cut

Like man, my career only exists in the way that it does now because a production designer was googling "realistic pokemon" and found me. If he could have just had a machine spit that out, I never would have gotten a job. This is a major issue hitting artist discoverability.

We need a Queer Eye reboot except exclusively teaching otaku guys how to do better than untucked tees and cargo shorts.
After a visit to the Animate in Ikebukuro, Japanese X user Numatami asks their readers to explain why otaku women are always stylish and decked out while otaku men "don't seem to bother with their clothing and appearance."

If I had known the two paragraphs about genAI in my article today would be so controversial, I would have expanded them a bit! Here's a rough transcript of the relevant portion of my interview with Swen Vincke, so everyone has all the context. (Full article here: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...)

Gorilla and Michael Quest V are very underrated gems.
All the hits for the PlayStatis2 in 16-Bit Sensation: Metal Gay Solid, .pack, and Kingdom to Heart. There may be a Silent Building, too.

Fake/close-enough game titles are one of the things I always dearly love to see 😌

I want to drive a dump truck of cow manure to the Microsoft headquarters and drop it off in the lobby as a thank you.

They didn't ask for it, they didn't want it, but maybe they can figure out how to get rid of it.
Is there a way to get this mind-numbing Co-Pilot shit off Microsoft Word?

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

Folks I emphasize as always, if you don't actually show up for the things you want, they stop getting made. Sometimes you gotta be okay with taking a chance on that 7/10 game knowing it's the only way those creators get to keep making the stuff you wanna see
Keita Takahashi said 'To a T' didn't sell well enough. He moved back to Japan with his family, unsure if he will stay in the industry.

I keep seeing posts asking if there are any alternatives to Duolingo for Japanese that don't use AI, and yes there are!!!

Also Mango languages might be free through libraries, but they use AI in course creation.
