Same ddt. Working in service design for govtech. Bikes, books, cats. But I get out. All content here is personal.

I'm with Erika. The only joy I got from it was reading the journalists at Television Without Pity savaging it.

roblox ceo: we are innovating ways to get kids addicted to gambling
Roose: Would you ever put a prediction market inside Roblox — like, let kids bet with their Robux and say, “I bet he’s gonna steal a Tung Tung Tung Sahur?” Newton: Or, “I bet he’s not gonna Dress to Impress.” Baszucki: We would — I think we would have to do that — once again, I’ll share some of the complexity. Every single country in the world has different legislation around loot boxes and kid gambling. And so we would have to be — it sounds very fun and obvious. Like, I love that — Roose: Oh, to be clear, I think this is a horrible idea. Newton and Baszucki: (laughter) Roose: I was just interested if you were thinking about it. Baszucki: Well, I actually think it’s a brilliant idea if it can be done in an educational way that’s legal. And so, imagine no free Robux, no free prizes, just a game called the Dress to Impress Predictor, where it’s not like trying to get kids’ money or anything like that. I would be a big fan of it.

It's a bit of a time investment, but I learned about this (and how it became widespread through Left Behind), from Fred

I'm afraid I'll need to see that in writing! Preferably perfect bound.

Book nerd here, can recommend the Koolhaus-designed library branch.

I guess it’s the availability heuristic on my side!

I get that! It took me a few years of interviewing to get into civic tech and design, and it’s a tighter job market now.

For now, attend talks by civic tech people, read Marina Nitze’s book, go to civic hackathons, get into your bones what makes civic work different.
