Not planning to use this for much beyond following gamedevs and programmers at the moment.

This was 18 years ago.

Any place that is dependent on a constant influx of fresh-faced kids and young adults will begin to be gutted over the next couple years.

Colleges are already shutting down or hiking up tuition.

Tech's pipeline of high-IQ CS grads/dropouts will also dry up, or at least will need to source many more kids from different countries to maintain a quality level.

Or alternatively, cut quality entirely and double down on nepotism and claims that status and "taste" matter most now.

Honestly the idea that university should be both a requirement for normal middle-class life but also require debt slavery is plainly the most evil position.

It should be optional and costly or mandatory and free, but mandatory and costly is just pure vampirism on the young.

It can be tricky to communicate predictions that involve the actions of other people.

For example, I think it’s unlikely we’ll get any kind of cyberpocalypse that normies notice. And the reason we won’t is that thousands of people will take the risk seriously and work really hard to prevent it. But if you say “I think this bad outcome is unlikely” people think you’re saying “no one needs to worry about it” when in fact it’s unlikely *because* people will worry and thus fix it.

I had a very productive weekend on the gamedev side, a lot of polish and stuff. And now, you can repair the mech.

Don't let billionaires convince you slop is the future. They're used to managing & directing, not making things themselves. Of course they can't see the difference. They don't understand your love for the craft. Keep making personal, beautiful games.

You've got my support 💖

Me: "Don't you dare" sounds perfectly normal but "do not you dare" sounds ridiculous which is insane because "don't" is a contraction for "do not."

Doctor: I meant is anything bothering you physically

@AdventIslands If you're just trying to get steam keys out to streamers that want them, they seem to be using a website called keymailer these days.

The many expressions of the Wastelandshop model! 📺

Nah, it's different. Watching tax dollars destroy each other is not a good thing for anyone paying the taxes, but selling to both sides of a war is actually ideal for a weapon supplier.

This is becoming a necessary complement to the old meme.

What a "car" means has fundamentally changed. China changed it. It took mobile phones and drones and rare earth magnets and fashioned these into a new technology that works better than the controlled-explosion thing that Japan and Germany make.

Hey everyone! We know it’s been a while since we’ve had something new to show. Now with Elsie mostly on the rear view mirror, we’re looking forward to something a little. Here’s a sneak peek 🫣 Everything you see is placeholder and EXTREMELY early in development. Be gentle 🫪🫪
