If AIPAC had even a fucking shred of real, actual concern for Jewish Americans and their advocacy, they would never, ever cozy up to "pro-Israel Republicans" to whom the OVERWHELMING majority of us are vehemently opposed. Duplicitous scumbags.

I've tried to be all "it is what it is" since finding out about Destiny's wind-down. But man. This hurt. A lot. Thank you, Destiny, and all the Bungie devs who touched it, for giving me so, so much, for 12+ glorious years.

AI always calling your ideas “fantastic” can feel inauthentic, but what are sycophancy’s deeper harms? We find that in the common use case of seeking AI advice on interpersonal situations—specifically conflicts—sycophancy makes people feel more right & less willing to apologize.

I'm sorry but this is such a wack answer. Talking instead (albeit accurately) about government misspending is a complete deflection from the issue that Bezos has amassed and captured a truly absurd amount of wealth without meaningfully paying back into the economy that makes it all possible.

Gotta love the bajillion dollar "revolutionary" AI getting even the simplest things about hockey nonsensically wrong. What a profoundly fucking useless, expensive piece of flotsam.

You don't even need to go existential with your arguments against the pervasiveness of AI tools. You can stick to real, tangible issues - Adobe software was already notoriously unstable dogwater. How many MORE random crashes are caused by the resource drain/instability of all this unrequested slop?

Yep, Adobe pulled this shit on us for our shared license. The "downgrade" to Creative Cloud Standard is buried in their plans section so you have to go digging for it to switch, but they will refund the difference in price as soon as you switch.

In a couple hours, Bungie's new game Marathon is going to launch, and I hope it absolutely blows the doors off. The gleeful angry-mob teardown of new games before they even come out (Highguard, anyone?) is bad for gaming, it's bad for creativity, and it's bad for art as a whole. It has to stop.

We've been taking some fancy product shots, Chess Joker is really shaping up! Very excited to be showing this off at #PAX Unplugged next week. Chess Joker is Carl Chudyk's latest - the great game of chess with lots of interesting cards. No more memorized board positions! Tactics rule the day.

I also had NO CLUE, as a customer/gamer & tangentially linked to the industry. For executive leadership to make financially catastrophic decisions based on "let's make a new, worse answer to a problem that's already been solved, because we're bigger and have more money" is indefensibly incompetent.
