How to Participate Data is posted to social media every Monday morning. Follow the instructions in the new post for how to download the data. Explore the data, watching out for interesting relationships. We would like to emphasize that you should not draw conclusions about causation in the data.

A close-up photo of a rectangular slice of flatbread or thin pizza on a white plate with red heart patterns. The flatbread is topped with fresh spinach leaves, sliced tomatoes, cubes of tofu in both light and dark varieties, and zucchini. A dollop of mustard-like spread is visible on the crust edge. In the background, part of another plate, a napkin, and a person’s arm are slightly out of focus.

Someone on the GMTK Discord shared a great hack: Google doesn’t show AI summaries if your query contains swear words.
Google search result for “how long does it take to get a passport” with an AI overview Searching “how fucking long does it take to get a fucking passport” on Google Search results without AI overview

DID YOU KNOW? There was a promotional video for GEX made in the 90s that has never seen the light of day… until now! Watch this promo from Summer 1999, uploaded here for the first time ever.

Pointless Balatro lore: When I started Balatro dev I was living in my hometown of Regina, Saskatchewan. I had a bus stop outside my apartment (similar to the one in this image) and I based the art of 'Ride the Bus' on that bus stop!

Every time I see that joker it reminds me of my old apartment
