The discourse around Fortune's Weave is the same around Rebirth. It's demonstrably simple to me. You judge the quality of something by what you are given. It IS a negative to have too much of it. Balance is a pillar of quality. A meal can have too much sauce or too little. They both affect quality.

It's lovely having a QB that I'm never worried about in a 2 minute drill. That game was too close. The o-line is obviously a problem at this point.

Epps has been a straight liability this whole game. Just infuriating, but man does Saleh know how to play Jalen. His D always has like a minimum of two INTs

All in all a pretty typical September opener. O-line is still a concern, but so many new coaches that it's far from panic time. Play calling felt fine, just had a bunch of plays blown up from O-line struggles.

Connecticut, the true flyover state, nothing happens in that state. It's just interconnected highways to get from New York to Massachusetts or vice versa and it's boring to drive through. What does it contribute? No food or media. It's just the home of colleges that happen to be good at sports.

Excited for this. I felt like Ragnorak was a pretty big step down from 2018's. I'm happy to return to that earlier timeline. The reveal concept was sick. The combat looks... rough? Not very fluid at all. I imagine they have a long way to go until we see this.

He fomented an Insurrection, likely killed tens of thousands, if not hundreds, because of how he defunded the CDC/FEMA pre-pandemic, and was the most obvious snake oil politician in the history of our lives I'm sorry you lost your family farm for your kids, but you set it to the torch yourself.

As someone who hates it when games have generic stories with create-a-character protagonists because I'd always prefer a curated focused narrative, this is my personal dystopian nightmare future.

Can't explain how nice it is, after all of these years, to have a flyers defensive line that knows when to skate toward the net and take skill shots and not just slap it from the blue line hoping to get a deflection.

My father in law just bought himself a new laptop to play poker and read emails on. For some reason the Windows distro was default locked to Safe mode. The CPU was clogged with Copilot processes when nothing was open. Uninstalled it immediately and it works normally.

This is so, so well-articulated.
People call this friction "grunt work." Schwartz uses exactly that phrase, and he's right that LLMs can remove it. What he doesn't say, because he already has decades of hard-won intuition and doesn't need the grunt work anymore, is that for someone who doesn't yet have that intuition, the grunt work is the work. The boring parts and the important parts are tangled together in a way that you can't separate in advance. You don't know which afternoon of debugging was the one that taught you something fundamental about your data until three years later, when you're working on a completely different problem and the insight surfaces. Serendipity doesn't come from efficiency. It comes from spending time in the space where the problem lives, getting your hands dirty, making mistakes that nobody asked you to make and learning things nobody assigned you to learn.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

Awesome thread. Heuristics have been a programmer's friend since the inception of Comp Sci. Scalability and reliability can be done in a fuzzy way if you focus on plugging the holes instead of building the perfect boat. I'm all for this way of thinking as an engineering manager.

I always found this critique to be so strange & it's the same reason I love Remake & not Rebirth. The Midgar section is so tight & compelling narratively while showing you the ropes. It goes off the rails when you aimlessly search for Sephiroth for an entire disc, before finding its footing again.
