The moral of Pokemon Pokopia is that you always need to be trying to do good when you can because you have NO IDEA the ripple effect it will have. No one person saved Pokemon on Earth. No one Pokemon did either.

A customer just tried to use an employee discount code that ChatGPT gave her. I work at a high-end clothing store and clocked in to my manager telling me about the most unhinged interaction from yesterday. A woman walked in asking if she could use a 40% off code she got online. We don't have any sales running, so my manager looks at the screen and realizes ChatGPT straight up handed this woman a real employee's internal ID number.

Forever chasing this clarity of thought and ease of audience understanding. Shakespearean writing is entirely understandable when the thoughts are clear. I met Sir Ian McKellen at theatre school and he gave us this as a gift 16 years ago. The topic is universal and his stance is crystal clear.

This 100%. The scarcity mindset is so hard to get out from under, but better that than to have your body make you stop and take stock of yourself like mine did to me earlier this year. There is absolutely a limit to how much stress a body and a brain can take.

this still makes me giggle uncontrollably


I was thinking about why so many in the radical left participate in "speedrunning"
The reason is the left's lack of work ethic ('go fast' rather than 'do it right') and, in a Petersonian sense, to elevate alternative sexual archetypes in the marketplace ('fastest mario')

Straight up I do not know where the work is. What do you do besides put your stuff out there and hope someone reaches out from the void? Indie space where it's all social is one thing, but incorporated studios are an opaque black void. We had amazing staff composers at Bungie and it showed!

was literally just referencing this—the “who is having the most fun, the player, the designer, or the computer” question—earlier today. it’s such a core concern when making something heavily systemic or relies a lot on procgen

thinking about this again today, and not even in the context of procgen. The thing about systems design is that it's so easy to get excited about making little sandboxes for yourself that you forget the player needs insight into it, lest it simply appear the same as complete randomness.

there's a great interview with a developer on Civ where they said, paraphrased, "a feature should never be the computer having fun instead of the player" and I think about this every time I'm working on procgen. It's often a strong argument to expose more of what you're doing.

Dems replaced action on trans rights with hollow statements, then dropped those statements, then embraced anti-trans rhetoric. Now supporting anti-trans laws and blocking pro-trans ones. At every step the "they're betraying us" radicals were correct and "be patient" liberals were completely wrong.
