Saw this on Bluesky: 'playing FFXI and keep finding old MUD systems underneath its skin.' Yeah. Inventory grids, guild hierarchies, kill-on-sight rep, faction conflict. All text-game DNA. We just kept the text. #MUD #IronRealms

Text RPGs have been around since the 80s. Most people think they died with the dial-up era. We've been running five of them continuously since 1997, and we're still adding to them.

Free to play. No download. #MUD #TextRPG

Harvard Business Review research reveals that excessive interaction with AI is causing a specific type of mental exhaustion ( or "AI brain fry"), which is particularly hitting high performers who use AI to push past their normal limits.

A survey of 1,500 workers reveals that AI is intensifying workloads rather than reducing them, leading to a new form of mental fog.

While AI is generally supposed to lighten the load, it often forces users into constant task-switching and intense oversight that actually clutters the mind.

This mental static happens because you aren't just doing your job anymore; you are managing multiple digital agents and double-checking their work, which creates a massive cognitive burden.

The study found that 14% of full-time workers already feel this fog, with the highest impact seen in technical fields like software development, IT, and finance.

High oversight is the biggest culprit, as supervising multiple AI outputs leads to a 12% increase in mental fatigue and a 33% jump in decision fatigue.

This isn't just a personal health issue; it directly impacts companies because exhausted employees are 10% more likely to quit.

For massive firms worth many B, this decision paralysis can lead to millions of dollars in lost value due to poor choices or total inaction.

Essentially, we are working harder to manage our tools than we are to solve the actual problems they were meant to fix.

Achaea closes the Millennium with a reflection worthy of it.

This epilogue looks back on Seleucar, the last thousand years, and why the world that followed may be greater still.

Oh no 😥 Why can’t I toggle on dark mode in the X app anymore @elonmusk? I prefer to have dark mode in some apps, but not all, and X was one of them…

Greenlandic 🇬🇱 citizen here,

The United States has had an extensive military presence in Greenland — and chose to dismantle it.

During and after World War II, the United States established a broad network of military bases and installations across Greenland. These included Narsarsuaq (Bluie West One), Ikateq (Bluie East Two), Bluie East One, Camp Century, and Kangerlussuaq (Søndre Strømfjord Air Base).

In total, the United States operated approx 15–17 bases and major installations in Greenland. Most were closed shortly after the war. Camp Century was abandoned in the 1960s, and Kangerlussuaq — the last major U.S. air base — ceased to function as an American military base in 1992. Only today Pituffik Space Base remains, with 150 American soldiers.

This large-scale drawdown was not the result of Danish inaction, but of American strategic choices made during a period when the Arctic was assessed as a lower security priority.

Since the 1951 Defense Agreement between the United States and Denmark, the United States has had the legal right to establish, maintain, and expand its military presence in Greenland. That option already exists.

If the United States now considers Arctic strategically critical, this does not require new narratives or the reassignment of blame. It requires American decisions and American investment — within the framework of an agreement that has been in place since 1951.

As the representative for Dynatrace that you spoke with, I would like to apologize again, and emphasise that I take personal responsibility. I was (and am still) very enthused about Clawdbot, and should have not given a commitment before making sure that all stakeholders at Dynatrace Vienna was equally enthused.

We take pride in supporting the general developer community in Vienna, and have hosted meetups such as Vienna.js, React Vienna, Angular Vienna, AI Engineering Vienna, Java Vienna, and more in the past, and will continue to do so.

A Clawdbot specific meetup is compared to Claude Anonymous (which was the original ask on X to host for) and aforementioned meetups more niche, and does not have the same general developer/programmer audience. Again - it pains me that I pulled the gun too early on my commitment - and that I could not get the consensus needed.

I'll gladly personally donate 100 EUR towards food/drinks (or whatever you choose to use it for) for the generel Clawdbot community.

Last time with @Ryanair, sadly. I used to be fine with your services, but at this point it’s just ridiculous. I pay extra for priority, only to realize an estimated 60% paid for the same service. Many priority passengers must have ended up on same bus as economy, leading to selling a service without providing it. No seat pouch to put stuff in (where should I put my head phones case etc?), and flight was delayed despite gate opening on time and people queueing promptly (no delay displayed). Asked kindly if I could check in my cabin bag to save them space and trouble, but no, would have cost me extra. On top of that, the staff seems straight out of school and totally green (no offense meant to them).

This has become a joke, and (speculation) might break marketing laws. No, thanks!
