The thing I least expect about moving here is that text messaging basically does not work. Everyone just uses whatsapp instead.

Two weeks done at the new job. Other than freaking out about things that still need to be done back in the states, we're doing quite alright.

my belief is that at the end of the day, great games are made by groups of people who have high trust with each other & can fluidly execute a shared vision. which is a small part of why these layoffs are so devastating- it's not just about jobs, it's about these "trust structures" being torn apart.

Day 1 at Supercell in the books! The vibes were fantastic, the people were great, and i even got in on a playtest. Looking forward to a wonderful time here and diving in on helping make such a fantastic game.

The doc is Maida Chen of Seattle Children's. No other professional has fought as hard to give my daughter amazing medical outcomes as she has. She's literally saved Emmy's life. At least three times. Thank you isn't enough. I'll always ugly cry remembering how she's helped my family so so much.

a doctor in yellow scrubs crouches for a photo next to a family of 3 consisting of a father, daughter, and mother. They're all smiling brightly. The mom is really beautiful. The daughter is happy. The dad is ugly crying but smiling.

When we say Dolly Parton changed lives, she did, it was clear, it was evident, it was everywhere. The Imagination Library was a supreme act of loving children and families and showing it through books and money and effort. The Moderna vaccines she funded. The money she poured into her hometown.

Both of my children had their love of reading supported by free books sent from Dolly’s foundation. Just now cleaning out my daughter’s room we found a couple and they’re straight onto the little kids library up the road. Rest in power, queen.

A tweet from Michael Harriot: Here's a wonderful thing I noticed. If you talk to someone who was in choir or band at a majority Black HS, you'll eventually discuss those annoying fundraisers for uniforms, instruments, etc. A suprising number will say: "Oh, Dolly Parton paid for ours."

It's hard to state just how important "offline support" is for making Once Upon a Galaxy a smooth experience for players. Server downtime? I bet you won't even notice. Going through a tunnel on the train? Who cares! Play on an airplane? Absolutely!

“Once Upon a Galaxy” (galaxy.fun) features asynchronous gameplay- unlike most multiplayer games, you and your opponents do not play the game “at the same time”. How does this work, and why did we choose this design? (🧵 time!)
