Slop folks will talk like there's gonna be some revolution in gaming if anyone can use a chatbot to customize a game exactly to their preferences, as if gamers don't already whinge constantly about having to customize something as small and constrained as difficulty and accessibility settings.

My hot take is that mathematicians should treat the openAI dump with the same seriousness as any other giant meandering unsolicited manuscript they receive. If openAI wants to participate in the research community they can learn to write their stuff up and submit it to a journal like everyone else.

I find it funny when people talk about how games are this art form that can make you feel emotions, but then you bring up something like wanting more games to have timers & people will say its bad design "because it makes me anxious" So emotions only allowed through story, not gameplay. Got it lol.

According to legend, illustrator Don Punchatz brought a model to id Software’s office to shoot reference photos for the Doom box art. The poses weren’t working, so the game’s co-creator John Romero took his shirt off and posed himself. humanoidhistory.tumblr.com/post/8286560...

Nobody wanted this except for whoever gets paid to run the verification bots. This will not "keep kids safe" on the internet, and the huge ID breach we've seen recently is only the beginning of why this is a bad idea. I miss the free internet.

A new risk for mathematicians: a colleague reports that immediately after they posted an abstract of their upcoming talk online, a student elsewhere used AI to derive proofs of the stated results and then posted it on the arxiv. My colleague hadn't posted to arxiv yet. Scummy. Watch out.

New research from Proton finds 87% of top Canadian companies depend on US tech companies. For governments, it’s even worse: 100% of federal, provincial, and territorial governments rely on US companies for email. As Canada turns away from the US, major institutions need to cut that reliance.

Why is it when people try to "challenge the narrative" on Nintendo's importance in gaming they always chase it with some goofy shit like "the Mega Man games weren't even good". You don't need to lie to make Amiga games have merit!

What route should you take from the blue pin to the red pin, if you need to cross the road to touch the far side in between? You want the fastest route, but counting time on the road for double that on the pavement - it is more dangerous. you will rediscover the laws for reflection and refraction!

Is this a downer of a read for a rainy Thursday morning? Sure, but it ends with a vital call to action - ditch the tech from techbro oligarchy and do what China and now France is doing. Move to open source like Linux, LibreOffice, etc. And build a global, open Internet backbone.
