I think one of the crucial marks of a skilled game designer is being capable of recognizing when a game doesn't appeal to them personally but *being able to build a critical lens to evaluate how its design works or doesn't for the people it WAS meant to appeal to*. It demonstrates mental agility.

The Light-Type Guncannon is pretty much the only design from GQuuuuuux that I like, which is a shame because I really enjoyed this build. The articulation is excellent so it's a lot of fun to pose.

Game design (especially narrative) is a constant conversation with the player. That extends to wisely deployed dialogue choices, which can be used to build the world, forward the plot, and reveal more about the characters.

We spent 200+ hours perfecting this template collection so you could spend 10 minutes looking like you have a full design team. That's not a shortcut. That's strategy. Your time multiplies when you build on proven foundations instead of starting from scratch every time.

Canva templates are everywhere. Standing out means breaking the template. Custom fonts, unexpected color combos, bold design choices—THIS is how authors build recognizable brands on Pinterest. Be unmistakable.

2/ The bench was a simple design which I think was originally by a woodworker named Asa Christiana. The last picture is the bench after a decade. It remains amazingly functional but for some time I’ve wanted to build a new one with more heft and different vises.

My keynote about data science tools at posit::conf is now online! I originally meant it to be a talk about Positron, but as I was writing it, it took a left turn through the history of RStudio and into the philosophy of tool design & how to build stuff for people.

LRT It's hard to be vulnerable (after previously dealing with harassment for years) to be public about my Mardek RPG design work but I'm tired of letting people poison my joy lmao

I helped build a 1k member discord TWICE for this game! I care about it so deeply! I met my husband because of it! 🙏💕

A life size Voyager - being a nice squat design - would be far more practical to build but alas attract fewer people

Or ask experts in system design and change management how to build a system of enforcement which can't fail.

When Congress complains about their hands being tied, laugh in their faces. These are the most powerful people in the world.

Enforce it. That's the enforcement mechanism. Doing something.

"Oh but there is no mechanism to enforce it"

Bullshit. Write up a resolution that says Good Behavior is grounds for disqualification, is separate from impeachment, and requires a simple majority vote in the senate to be considered grounds for removal.

Problem solved.

By learning from other countries and adopting international best practices, California High Speed Rail was able to cut its costs by $14 billion and cut 70% of tunnels.

This is a big lesson for transit projects both in NY & around the US: start by learning from other countries.

Ian Choudri: Yes. When I came on board, like we looked at six or seven different areas of improvements and one of that was engineering of how we are building it comparable to the European and Japanese systems. And came to realize that as engineers, all the folks that were in the team being very conservative. They were going, "Let’s build it not that steep." And so we are going to do it as flat as we can. While that’s fun if you are in the desert, if you are going through Tehachapi or Pacheco Pass, you quickly realize you can't stay flat. So the decision was made to make it a little higher, because Europe is doing it, Japan has been doing it. Let’s not reinvent. That eliminated about 70 percent of the tunnels that we had to do. And that’s billions of dollars. Ian Choudri: I don’t blame anyone. These were not intentional mistakes. This was a lack of checking because we don’t have another high speed rail in this country. So we were using highway bridges or freight rail design concepts, which is all we know. And so we fixed it. It took us four months to realize that this is a big mistake and improve the cost structure. When we put our plan out, we said we saved $14 billion by optimizing cost by changing design standards and criteria, bringing them up to par with the European and the Japanese.

Visited the in-laws’ summer house over the weekend to do some tidying up & turn off the water & power for the winter. Dad built this in the 80s all by himself with products ‘sourced’ from friends who worked in the right factories (it was hard to buy them!). The design was based on the famous ‘Brda’.
A small A-frame “Brda”-type summer house with a steep triangular roof, simple timber siding, a central entrance, and a narrow balcony; a compact, functional cabin typical of Polish holiday resorts and allotments (the ROD - family allotments: plots of land rented out by associations on which you can build your own little summer house).

some early saturday design work. Expanding on this mancala train idea I had some time ago. What if something like Ostia and 18xx had a baby. (Elseware Express vol2?) Idea is on your turn, you pick an action, train tokens on it are X. 'buy x, build x, etc' then you mancala them around the track.
a 2 player setup for now. a close up of a player board for yellow.

Worse, it’s a state guideline for how localities *should* be writing these documents. YIMBYs passed a law to say cities cannot impose subjective design standards, they must be objective. So now they’re putting it all in writing so we can build a case that they shouldn’t be allowed at all.
