Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 11/10/2026This almost feels like a commentary on the various "but what if the evil monster/person was generically good and wholesome, actually" stories going around, but I'm probably reading too much into it. 110
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 09/10/2026To me, someone who admittedly doesn't follow college football, so this may be ignorance talking, the old system has the vibes of comic book nerds arguing over which superhero is strongest. 010

Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 06/10/2026My guesses: Too busy rebuilding, political and military influence from the superpowers, fear of the war becoming a proxy war ala Korea or Vietnam, fear of accidentally being the thing that sets off WWIII. 000

Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Not "even". *Especially* if they have book-themed tote bags. Tote bags, I wager, pay better than the books themselves, and the books and bags promote each other. 010
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 02/10/2026That's because it's usually based on xenophobia and the resultant desire for isolationism, not a rationally considered economic model or ideology. The Other is out to get them, so any trade with The Other, is bad, by definition. 030

Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 30/09/2026It might've been more popular if either of the previous "free money" promises had actually paid out. It turns out that repeatedly promising things you have no ability or intention of providing is unpopular. 030

Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 26/09/2026There have been at least one or two well regarded games I have bailed on due to being unable to stand a major character's voice acting. I can't take high and screechy in a major/commonly encountered character. 020

Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 24/09/2026You can have well-funded organizations that report expenses and have offices that do not reveal where that funding comes from and attempt to minimize or conceal their biases from anyone not intimately familiar with their writings and actions. 000
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Because we don't have meaningful quantitative measures of "how creative was this person", so literally everything is vibes. Vibes are notoriously nonspecific and influenced by such things as preferred genre and style, mood, and phase of the moon. 110

Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 18/09/2026One thing about UV protective clothing that frustrates me is that almost everything is UPF 50, which is significantly heavier and thus warmer and less breathable than UPF 30, but only incrementally more protective (98% vs ~96.67%) . 000
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Fixing it would've required the company to employ someone capable of fixing it. Also, AI generated images of what are supposed to be actual products should be considered false advertising by definition. 010
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I like poutine, but I don't see how it's even in the running other than regional pride. There are just so many more ways to make pizza and make pizza great. 000
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 17/09/2026It's only "the right evolutionary move" in the extremely narrow sense of an organism's goal being to propagate its genetic material. It falls apart as soon as you start looking at long-term survival of the species. 070
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Yes. Every filthy rich narcissistic psychopath that goes on about the importance of producing offspring and spreading their DNA. 020
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Failure to consider other consequences is still a possibility though. Sure, if you actually think about it, you know that cheesecake will make you fat, but right now all you're thinking about is how good that cheesecake tastes. 100
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 14/09/2026One sort of interesting thing I noticed when visiting Kauai a few years ago is that the cost of eating out doesn't scale linearly. Food truck is e.g. +20% over the mainland, but the percentage increase goes up as you go upscale for meals. 210
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Ah yes, a friend. I'm sure this friendship will go well. For at least one person at the table. 000
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 13/09/2026In addition to that, and the loco moco, if you're going to be on Kauai or O'ahu (or in Los Angeles, apparently), check out Holey Grail Donuts. Made to order taro donuts. They're amazing. 010
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 13/09/2026A loco moco is a great breakfast. Not too heavy, but with plenty of carbs and protein for energy. 010

Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Who was it that proved any self-referential mathematical system inevitably contains problems it cannot solve? Same principle. We can "be basically good" because we don't have to function with only a single self-referential system, and we only have to be "basically good" not "perfectly good". 000

Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 08/09/2026It has become abundantly clear over the past decade or so that much of what corporate "leadership" does is about power and control, not money and productivity. 1140
Ed Huyer @arcanum3000.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I'd be pretty concerned by the claim that it invented cake. Blatant, self-aggrandizing dishonesty raises major questions about its trustworthiness for accomplishing future tasks. Is it going to one day spend $500 getting dinner catered while claiming it did the work? It's not a minor problem. 041
