In 1997, James Reason published 'Managing Organizational Accidents'. It was influential in popularizing his concepts around the Swiss Cheese model, his specific brand/recipe of safety (and just) culture, etc. and discussed ever since. But it also has this line in it just throwing incredible shade:
Text from a book:

For example, some individuals are considerably more absentminded than others. If the person in question has a previous history of unsafe acts, it does not necessarily bear upon the culpability of the error committed on this particular occasion, but it does indicate the necessity for corrective training or even career counselling along the lines of 'Don't you think you would be doing everyone a favour if you considered taking on some other job within the company?'. This is the way that management acquires some of its most distinguished members. Absentmindedness has nothing whatsoever to do with ability or intelligence, but it is not a particularly helpful trait in a pilot or control room operator.
[...]

"This is the way management acquires some of its most distinguished members" is manually highlighted and a '!!' is in the margin.

This is a good example of the substitution myth in automation, applied to software workflows. Coactive work and the integration of various functions is different from the individual functions being doable in isolation.

At some point c. 2021, capitalists realized that there were no natural economic laws nor any criminal laws stopping them from demanding every last dollar that working people have. It was just a social norm that let us. e.g. save for retirement, and they finally agreed to break it.

It’s pretty funny for Chief Day to suggest Councilor Green can’t evaluate the police objectively when the mayor and deputy city administrator just went against the city’s own civilian police oversight agency in deciding not to hold former chiefs responsible for use of force failures in 2020.

This is a very big deal. For those who don't know, this is not an opening act. This was the Irish band that backed Ed Sheeran on the tour, including at MetLife, on the song Galway Girl and others. He has lost his own backup singers and band over this. It's huge.

FUNNY YOU USE THAT GIF
However, the adults making a Mrs. Doubtfire reference, with the punchline being that they only knew about Robin Williams lying in the movie via cultural osmosis despite never actually having seen the movie, is where I felt like Matt Damon rapidly aging in Saving Private Ryan. I feel even more ancient typing this out, realizing in real-time that the adults of Adults probably haven't seen that movie either, but know the reference as the shorthand prompt for reaction GIFs. 

God.

I think the thing that especially worries me about Level-5 and AI is that the new Professor Layton game is specifically about a technological revolution, and you just have to imagine that story is guided by a pro-AI worldview. That stands to be worse than having used placeholder genAI or whatever.

The more I work in Rails the more I'm convinced ActiveRecord is actively harmful at scale, and at no point does it create a designated off ramp to help teams isolate their domains successfully. Telling folks to learn the framework better is at best a cop out and at worst engineering malpractice.

I really think that the problem with having "murder" be your primary verb in video games, while also striving for more mature storytelling, is that you're increasingly boxed in. The instinct becomes to write a story reflecting on your actions, and it's getting very, very old. Angry guy feel sad.
