iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

It would be interesting to make a MUD where there's an evolution of language families pre-built, and then enforcing certain phonemes for naming conventions for each given region and/or race, even with player characters.

Maybe I can try to play through Broken Reality again and this time NOT break the game.

The reason I only wear button-down shirts is because I don't own bras anymore, and loose button shirt over T-shirt maintains the "modesty". But what if... Cape? What if I started dressing in a Piccolo purple jumpsuit and a white mantle/cape?? lmao

Their players might create other characters later on, but nobody has ever OOC told me they are some other character's player. (Actually just one, he had a "test" character before making a permanent character.) So even if their "soul" (player) is around I may never know.

Coding agents reduce software development to a simple matter of: * specifying requirements * verifying correctness and quality * maintaining and operating software you didn't write As we all know, those have always been the easiest, most well-understood parts of the craft, so everything is fine!

I was giving a talk yesterday about how LLMs are trained and how quippy misinformation that shows up a lot causes greater weights in favor of that. But I misspoke and I said "Autism causes Vaccines" and I paused a moment and said, "Well, that's actually probably true."

This also relates to what bugged me about the Less Than Human book. The author explicitly was like "objectification is different and beyond the scope of this book" in a very "I'm a man and I've never thought about womens'/fems' experiences" sort of way. Is objectification NOT dehumanization?
