Every time my students express admiration for a particular dreamy indie-game creator, I make them pull up their webpage and show them the back catalog of obscure and/or barely finished games on which they rest. I point at that game design "remainder" and ask why they aren't designing *those* rn.

Got a little angry at the end of my latest blog post. Software ate the world, and then finance ate the software industry, and now here we are. davekarpf.beehiiv.com/p/new-post-6...

One final thought.... zoom out far enough, and the history of the digital future looks something like this:
First, Silicon Valley built hardware that got smaller and faster and cheaper and better.
Then, Silicon Valley built software that became the mediating layer of the global economy.
And then, the finance industry ate the software industry. Every tech company today is a finance company.
Software ate the world, and then finance ate software, and now here we are.
It isn't quite as simple as "after the Great Financial Crisis, all the finance guys moved to Silicon Valley so they could keep doing the same bullshit without all the regulatory scrutiny." But that's a close-enough approximation of recent history.

hold on i have another one

the WHY FREE GAMES? manifesto

PEOPLE have been THINKING too long that GAMES are a PRIVILEGE of the “GAMER” or an INDUSTRY. GAMES ARE NOT BUSINESS! They do not belong to banks & fancy investors. GAMES ARE PLAY. GAMES are FREE & available to EVERYBODY. GAMES are EVERYWHERE because EVERYBODY can PLAY.

(Images of a dog chasing a ball, people playing Go, a cat and a computer)

PLAY SOOTHES PAIN!
Play wakes up sleepers!
Play nourishes & feeds!
PLAY IS EXPLORATION!
Play is for animals!
Play is for the kitchen!
PLAY IS LIKE GOOD BREAD!
PLAY IS FREE!
GAMES ARE FREE!

HURRAH!

book from 2009 with the clearest takedown of AI - and its the fucking Clean Code handbook

Book Excerpt - Clean Code Handbook:
One might argue that a book about code is somehow behind the times—that code is no longer the issue; that we should be concerned about models and requirements instead. Indeed some have suggested that we are close to the end of code. That soon all code will be generated instead of written. That programmers simply won’t be needed because business people will generate programs from specifications.
Nonsense! We will never be rid of code, because code represents the details of the requirements. At some level those details cannot be ignored or abstracted; they have to be specified. And specifying requirements in such detail that a machine can execute them is programming. Such a specification is code.

This was an unexpected but important opportunity for me, as McDowell is a writer I admire a lot. He was also a gay man who lived with and died from AIDS, and in his original draft did not shy away from the AIDS subtext of the original story--all but erased in the final film.
