As the year comes to a close, I want to thank everyone that came to the arcade! It was a fantastic year, and I have no doubt in my mind that the next year will be a good one as well. Probably the most varied set of games coming up. Have a great New Year!

It feels to me like the current state of AI is *massively* overvalued, and for all this expenditure to make sense in hindsight, it needs to enable a breakthrough to a higher level of capability, which *may* happen, but it's a gamble.

Something I get asked a lot is "how to build up shapes", since mechs are basically just a mash-up of basic shapes. This is a difficult one to answer because visual library usually comes with exposure and experience. However, there are a number of "favorite" shapes I use a lot.

He was a mutual, and we swapped emails, and talked about startups and raising sheep (he also had had Icelandics).

A Chinese company invented a micro #nuclear battery using isotope #Nickel-63 and diamond semiconductors. The 100-μW coin-sized battery can generate electricity at 3V constantly for over 50 years and work safely under a temperature of -60℃~120℃ without radiation leakage.
