"I need ChatGPT to brainstorm" dear human person the whole point of brainstorming is to find new ways or angles when approaching a problem, the "let's regurgitate the complete stolen corpus of human achievement"-machine doesn't help you brainstorm - it stops you from brainstorming.

As far as I'm aware, there's exactly one engineer at itch and that is leaf, the founder.
I think there’s also a misunderstanding of itch as some big corporate platform like Steam or the App Store and not just like a website a few people have built and kept together for a decade so people can share their weird art.

So I lost my phone at #PGDX day 3.
I managed to get home with help from friends, then traced the phone to a mall near the Expo venue. So I blocked the number and formatted the device remotely.
They can have my phone, but damned if they will take my data.
I can't access FB-related apps, for now.

A bit surprised to get Baltar as # 1 match via Pearson correlation. The very 1st Q was "Skeptical vs. Spiritual"; I self-assessed at 66% Skeptical compared to Gaius' 59%, but his probably should be even lower.

Achievement unlocked: kept going on a customer support call during an earthquake (magnitude 4.6 in Quezon City). For context, we're on the 26th floor.
On one hand, it feels lowkey badass to tank like that
But it would be kinda sad to die on the job, for the sake of maintaining shareholder value
