Sorry I didn't finish that design doc. The fate of the free world is currently being decided so I'm refreshing Twitter every 15 minutes only to discover absolutely nothing has happened yet, even though I already knew that would be the case.

Thank you for noticing! Being able to consistently stay sober in a world full of drinking opportunities hits close to home as I am also not drinking irl anymore (even if implementation in the engine required us to remember about it and do some extra work to account for it.)

My nephew Feyd-Rautha - so much better than Rabban, who was mistreated by the Atreides even the emperor never saw anything like it - my nephew says that they’re giving all the spice away. The atreides are afraid of the fremen. Nobody said that when it was my arrakis, my dune
