the defining games story of the last decade is when the dead cells team got a bunch of positive press for being a workers co-op but then the game was a huge hit and so they made a private company for all the new employees to scale up into while the “co-op” remained about ten people large lol

I know I've been fooled in the past but I'm certain the next big thing in tech is a key chain with a screen and camera on it that allows you to verbally ask an animated creature questions in public. I cannot wait to give mine all my personal and financial information

i do not think it is ok for "full album" youtube playlists to include music videos for some tracks. those have sounds in them that are not from the album.

Have I played “Control Resonant”? Sorry…I’m too busy reading the story of a man who “Controls Rocinante”…that’s right, Miguel Cervantes’ immortal tale “Don Quixote de La Mancha”. So you enjoy your strange “Federal Bureau”…I’ll be delighting in the adventures of Sancho Panza and his “Friendly Burro”

All of the broader things that we're losing thanks to AI—from being able to trust others to cheap GPUs—are a much bigger issue but what really gets to me personally is just losing respect for people I used to like. Ah it turns out that a shiny toy and flattery overrides your moral compass. Okay.

I just found out the game is called Wetrix, not Wetris. I guess because it's a wet matrix and not because it's like water tetris. I feel like they wanted me to make this mistake

An individual in Canada used ChatGPT for eight months to plan one of the country’s worst mass shootings. Yet, if you listen to politicians and media, the real threat of AI is a fantastical scenario where it might wipe out humans in ten years. They need to stop getting fooled by tech deceivers.

The media has the AI threat all wrong
Generative AI is harming people today. We don’t need to waste time fantasizing about science fictional scenarios.

it's not just that LLMs replace making an effort with making shit up, it's that they make the former *read as* the latter. they're fractally destructive to the conveyance of information

I have an iPod with the hard drive replaced with SD cards. Fairly regularly, after it's played an album or so, it will start immediately skipping through songs and will continue until I hard reset it. Playing that album will then work so it isn't that those songs are missing. Any ideas?

I am so sick of software that is sure it knows what I want better than I do. I crop a screenshot to the correct size and slack decides to cut off the edges in the preview. So I replace the screenshot with one that has a margin and Slack cuts off the exact same section

I know programming is the most "I'm management actually" field but it does kind of blow my mind that so many programmers have so little sense of self-preservation that they're willing to go all in on a technology that promises "your job will be made miserable up until it can be made redundant"

Right this is what I find so maddening. As far as I can tell, the problems LLMs are "solving" are caused by a combination of increasingly constraining application design and learned helplessness. MS office used to ship with a version of Visual Basic!

Software developers think "if AI automates coding, I will be able to spend less time on producing widgets, and more time on strategy and architecture." Bosses think "if AI automates coding, I can get my devs to produce 100x more widgets."

We don't live in slop world because of AI, we live in slop world because the purpose of everything is to generate a return on investment for capital. We evaluate everything along metrics designed to serve that purpose over any other. AI is just the best way we found of optimizing for these metrics.
