As someone who still prefers to make games in a custom engine I wrote, the code is kind of an inseparable part of a game's character, decisions about engine structure and every little bit of code have ripples that can absolutely be felt in the end product, even if hard to pick out specifics

for such free market lovers, billionaires and businesses sure do love destroying the freedom!

"Let the market decide" idiots when the market decides to boycott ai slop

Brazil with a nice dose of hope this morning but holy smokes someone needs to position themselves as Lula's successor and fast

toph is still the coolest bender in the entire series

avatar seven havens just went from good to very good!

TVar is not Traversable!

a lot of websites starting to look the exact same and it's boring

imagine we genie wish a flag onto mars that didn't improve space-fairing, or engineering, or culture or economics and noone was employed and no humans grew it takes a very special kind of ignorance to think the flag is the sole point the flag itself is just symbolic of the work

a real one 💜

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 💖

i've been in mourning for the past two weeks, I think I'm going to give up with building software my next goal is electronics repair

When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

This is somehow the funniest and most appropriate typo of my name I've ever seen

Game dev: I have created an algorithm for fletching arrows made from procedurally generated materials in real-time. Enterprise dev: node install william-tell.

Explaining to a “regular” software engineer that games are hot rods made with customized parts and there’s basically no code reuse while they lose their mind is one of my favorite hobbies! (Also why many game devs don’t understand just how good at things they really are until they leave games)

It's important to remember that the AI doom scenario assumes not only that intelligence is a single well-defined thing, but also that intelligence solves literally every single problem, and that in every conflict overwhelming intelligence always wins. This is just not how anything works.

There are many ways in which every billionaire is a policy failure, but the most corrosive and destructive way in which billionaires are policy failures is this: billionaires, despite being unelected and unaccountable, possess the power to control - and ruin - millions of peoples' lives.

This a million times. People of colour being dragged on to debate maniacs about imaginary labels & race science is an abomination. proper ‘how German are you’ Nazi shit Note that people like me with white migrant parentage never asked to defend our identity Englishness. Is. A. Made. Up. Thing

star wars galatic racer looks like old-school burnout and it's caught my attention 👀

6/6 This is why Joan Robinson warned that the inevitable result of beggar-thy-neighbor policies, once deficit countries are no longer able politically to bear the costs, is a breakdown in trade. Rising debt and suppressed wages can only go on for so long.

"AI lets you focus on the higher level ideas!!" because we all grew up dreaming of becoming managers and CEOs we all know the real artists at the very highest level are the shareholders, famously full of amazing ideas

i would put huge financial incentives on simplifying laws and terms of service agreements

Sad news everyone. Our beloved friend the computer has now become a hated enemy

The London #Haskell meetup is looking for talk submissions for November, and for meetups early next year. They're after lightning talks (~15 minutes) and full-length talks (~30 minutes). How to submit: london-haskell.github.io#submit-a-talk

For the new Haskell Interlude, we sat down with Edward Kmett. Ed is a legend in the Haskell community. We talk about design principles for Haskell libraries, category theory, cache-oblivious algorithms and his current work involving Haskell, C++, and FPGAs. haskell.foundation/podcast/87/

Harley Quinn in the version of Batman where Meta exists: I got you those poi-vert glasses you asked for, Mistah Jay

I hope we keep writing docs for people who want to understand and build things without using AI.

dusklight is the level of skill I wish to achieve what an incredible decompilation job

Shout out to this article that made me lose it: www.terra.com.br/gameon/vida-... Here a Brazilian claims that Pokémon was the "last great social game of the pre-Internet era", something insane to say in the country of LAN houses & locadora de jogos, where maybe the richest 3% could afford a Gameboy
