A fintech company said its employee burned through $80,000 in tokens making a 'brainrot shooter game'
Slash is encouraging people to play the game so it can write it off as a "marketing expense."

"When the AI helper was suddenly taken away, these people were significantly more likely to give up on the problem or flub their answers. The study suggests that widespread use of AI might boost productivity at the expense of developing foundational problem-solving skills."

1/n 2 NEW epic images of Phobos over Mars just released by @esa.int Mars Express This view is especially striking, with Phobos between the Tharsis volcanoes and Noctis Labyrinthus–Valles Marineris Full resolution 300MP(!) & info on: flic.kr/p/2rMW4so Credit: ESA/DLR/FUBerlin/AndreaLuck CC BY 🧪🔭
A wide view of the planet Mars fills the frame, shown as a curved, rust-colored world against black space. The bottom edge fades into darkness, marking the planet’s night side, while the upper portion is brightly lit by sunlight. Near the right side are three large, round volcanic mountains of the Tharsis region, each with a wide circular base and a darker central caldera, resembling shallow craters pressed into the surface. North of these volcanoes, stretching almost vertically across the upper right half of the planet, lies Noctis Labyrinthus and Valles Marineris: an immense system of deep canyons and fractured terrain that appears as pale, branching scars and cracks, partly softened by hazy, cloud-like atmospheric features. Near the center of the image, positioned between the volcanoes and the canyon system, a small dark oval appears against Mars’s surface. This is Phobos, one of Mars’s satellites. Its tiny size stands out sharply against the vast scale of the planet below.

I can't access the chat feature in Bluesky suddenly, just because I traveled to the UK? How does this work? I can access age restricted stuff at home, and this setting is not tied to my account but to my location? So the question is: shall I prove that I'm old, or that i'm not living in the UK?

I'm not mad at any particular person in the story, just at the unfortunate timing. 2 weeks I was looking forward to spend with my hobby, gone. This reminds me a few years back I planned a month long vacation to release some steam and finally relax. I got news about the death of a relative 3 days in.

I'm between jobs rn, which means I get to do whatever I want, right? Right? I found a nice gamejam in this time frame, started some preparation. Then I got concerning news about my grandma. Jam cancelled. Life is a bully sometimes. Having something in my hands just to get it slapped to the ground.
