Bonhoeffer on Stupidity
‘Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented by use of force. Evil always carries within itself the germ of its own subversion in that it leaves behind in human beings at least a sense of unease. Against stupidity we are defenseless. Neither protests nor the use of force accomplish anything here; reasons fall on deaf ears; facts that contradict one’s prejudgment simply need not be believed- in such moments the stupid person even becomes critical – and when facts are irrefutable they are just pushed aside as inconsequential, as incidental. In all this the stupid person, in contrast to the malicious one, is utterly self-satisfied and, being easily irritated, becomes dangerous by going on the attack. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

Not spicy at all. People who do this are actually just amateurs. Anyone who has actually worked hard on games for a long time knows that *any* game is incredibly difficult to make and respects the craft. People who do this are real losers.

I watched this (youtu.be/TMoz3gSXBcY?...) on the abuse of LLMs & 'vibe physics' by @acollierastro.bsky.social - well worth a watch! - and I was struck by how the back 15 minutes (the 'thought train') also summed up neatly what it has been like to be a public-facing historian, even before LLMs.1/

I'm not going to use the word binge in relation to watching TV. Or really in relation to anything. It's not a positive word, it doesn't conjure feelings of joy.

I'm reserving my best posts for my own social network now and it feels like I've figured something out. Feels good to feel like I'm contributing to something valuable that will last. It's something I've been missing.

Here's an example of the kind of scam you get when you register a company. Looks like a legit government wmform but it's just a scam trying to get you to pay for something that is actually free to file. The company name is "501-CORP".
A picture of a form made to look like a government form. It looks like you need to pay $240 by a certain date, but that's totally untrue. The form uses bold to highlight the parts that should scare you and the company name is "501-CORP"

What do people use for gamedev version control today for small/medium/large projects? I thought the medium/large were still Perforce, but I'm hearing that many people are using Git+LFS now?

Youth (by Theodore Roosevelt)

I want to see you game boys,
I want to see you brave and manly,
and I also want to see you gentle and tender.
Be practical as well as generous in your ideals.
Keep you eyes on the stars
and keep your feet on the ground.
Courage, hard work, self mastery and intelligent effort
are all essential to successful life.
Character, in the long run,
is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike.

You can despise someone's politics and also acknowledge a tragedy when children die. Children are not responsible for the actions of their parents and they don't "deserve" anything but love and care. If some gloat over people dying in the LA fires, doing the same thing makes you the same as them.

People who argue that the law and ethics are the same thing really blow my mind. You don't need to be a history student at all, you just need to think of literally any time any group of people on earth were discriminated against legally based on the laws of the time. It's everywhere in history.

"X is just a distraction from Y" presumes that X and Y aren't equally as bad and equally as deserving of attention. If you "flood the zone" with enough bad stuff, then yeah, it's not possible to report on it all, but that's the actual problem, not that one is better or worse than the other.
