Best tri-tip so far :) Rubbed it with mustard, garlic and chili. Sous vide for 6 hours at 130. Removed, re-rubbed, and went straight to the grill for some char. Then rested for 20 mins, and done. 🍽️

So, after 7 years at Intrepid, I'm looking for work, due to the studio closure. I'm heartbroken that we couldn't get Ashes of Creation to completion, but happy that folks got to experience it in Alpha.

Chili crisp eggs and cottage cheese on toast. Came out very nice! Put down a bed of chili crisp in a hot pan. Crack an egg onto it, and put a slice of bread in the pan to toast it. When the white sets, flip the egg & bread. Cook 1m more. Cover the toast with CC, and then slide the egg on top.🍽️

Was playing with the new WoW housing system. I contributed to housing on Free Realms, EQ1, EQ2, and wrote most of the housing for Just Survive. WoW did it REALLY well :) Scaled a hot tub, a tent (to make a gazebo), and some guildies visited.

Pushing hard for the 3rd phase of our alpha test. Can't wait to see how our players react to some of the neat features we've added :)

Managed to encapsulate internationalized messages, store them in our MongoDB, retrieve them, and ship them to the client where they get localized. That was a chore and a half. The wrapper class was a nifty bit of work :)

Did some voice acting today. Man, my goblin voice WRECKS my cords. Fun, though :)

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

I want characters with interesting faces, proportions and imperfections. Why on earth would we want everyone look like airbrushed mannequins?

Lots of prep for our next Alpha phase. We're also getting great feedback from our public test server. I'm super happy with the way this alpha 2 test has been going!

In a paper published today in Nature, researchers at Google Quantum AI crossed a significant threshold in quantum error correction, moving quantum computers one step closer to practical applications. @benbenbrubaker.bsky.social reports: www.quantamagazine.org/quantum-comp...

Quantum Computers Cross Critical Error Threshold | Quanta Magazine

In a first, researchers have shown that adding more “qubits” to a quantum computer can make it more resilient. It’s an essential step on the long road to practical applications.

TIL that all of the various UE multicast delegate macros all funnel into a single macro with variable argument count. Never looked under the hood there before. The vararg version is much nicer to use ... I don't know why ones exist for discrete argument counts.

I made this meme on the other place years ago and some people naturally got really mad. Posting this here because there’s lots of reasonable people.

So, resharper suggested I pass shared pointers into a lambda by const reference (C++). I'm not sure resharper gets why I was using shared pointers there :)

Doing something once? A mistake. Twice? Shoulda learned. I ate extra-hot wasabi peas from a local market. I love them! Unfortunately, eat too many and you can shock (kill?) your taste buds. Everything tastes like cardboard today. At least I know it only lasts about 3-4 days.

Just love it when Rider tries to auto-complete a variable, chooses poorly, then invisibly adds a (bad) #include to the file where you don't see it. That one cost me 30 minutes :(

Played Viticulture (board game) for the first time last night with friends. I almost won in a very anti-intuitive fashion ... making no wine, but getting cards that awarded victory points for throwing away cards. "Unbelievable" was uttered many times :) Overall, a fun game!

Having an interesting conversation with some folks on another site. Name one book where the screenplay completely missed or screwed up the central theme of the book. One of them for me was Stardust.

It's so very satisfying to see feedback on our game during this 2nd phase alpha test! It's not the first MMORPG launch I've participated in, but it is the best-feeling so far. I hope everyone who is playing is having one Hell of a good time, and thanks for giving us feedback!

I finally took the plunge, after leaving Twitter sometime last year. I miss the folks I was interacting with. Eat me, Musk.
