Expedition 33 is a really good game. Dont know what else to say :) if you liked SNES and PS1/PS2 era JRPGs like Final Fantasy 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10.

You will love this game

Watched Barbie: go into the movie thinking youre about to watch an early 2000s Will Ferell or Adam Sandler movie that satirizes gender roles. Dont overthink how something happens in the movie.

Me and Elain laughed a lot so it depends on your humor.

I just really wanna tweet this: Diablo 4s sound and environment design has gotta be the best Ive ever seen in a game.

I still pause every now and then to admire the game even 30hours in.

Useful snippet for working with the openai libraries. Cache results, and retry calls in a sane way.

[John Carmack @ID_AA_Carmack]

Everyone knows that when you have similar code repeated several times that you should consolidate into a loop or function, but changing discrete variables into arrays and adding loops can have a small readability cost, so sometimes it can feel like a debatable choice for something small just repeated two or three times.

Usually, optimizing for readability is positive, but a requirement to keep two separate things aligned through future changes is an “invisible constraint” that is quite likely to cause problems eventually.

Many years ago, I would casually copy-paste-paste-paste-modify 4D vector statements, but now I almost never even do two related statements like that.

The hazard is when you combine two things that are close, but not exactly the same, and the strain induces complexity.

Hi Elon. Its Rob. 👋🏻

If we just revert a few hundred thousand commits, we can get the old Rails app running Twitter again. Add hotwire etc. Its great for small teams.

Just you and me.

Whaddya say. #rubyonrails4lyfe

Or it slowly burns through the cash, failing to attract advertisers and disappears in a span of a few years like Tumblr or Orkut.

Summarized personal thoughts:

1. Download your archive just in case
2. Scrub any naughty DMs you might have

"Why?" I think we gotta lay down some context 😄 this is not a doom post 🤣

[Ace Subido @acesubido]

As for the fate of the app/site? Elon may pull the greatest U-turn if he manages to convince some really talented employees to stay and twitter becomes the meme fiesta its meant to be that has outages (i.e. fail whales in 2009)

Employees at Twitter who Elon Musk was trying to convince to stay were hanging up on him as the 5PM deadline passed
