The "higher level ideas" are not nearly as important or interesting 19812199
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 3hMeta has always been one of the worst I suppose but even they used to back off from their worst excesses and now they're responding to any criticism of their "pervert glasses" with "it has a light". They've made the most philosophically load-bearing LEDs in history lmao 000
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 3hjust reminded of this thing Meredith Whittaker said a few years ago and thought I'd add since it seems relevant; I think a lot of people now understand this about the tech industry and view it a lot more cynically, and industry has responded by basically going mask-off. or closer to that, at least. 110
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 16hthis is true. semi related I used to think colman domingo dressed incredibly well for a straight guy. should've been less surprised finding out he's gay lol 000
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 17hI mean he kind of did and didn't. Even if things are good in the scheme of history, it's not like the world has a shortage of problems to struggle against; plenty of just causes to struggle for. Struggling for fake bigoted causes isn't just struggle for struggle's sake; it's a choice. 140
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 20hnot a specific line of code but I like to put silly jokes in my code. like "container" can be reasonably shortened to "cont" for a variable name which is very close to "cunt" and I am a child lmao. and you know I'm shortening "analytics" to "anal" 010
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 22hthat's true although I feel like it says more about Sam Altman than the current moment lol 000
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 04/10/2026I'm not sure it's much. And I mean, AI companies still maintain a veneer of goodness. I think the triple-punch of general enshittification, people realising social media sucks, and the whole industry going into crypto and that blowing up, basically tanked any goodwill and credibility they had. 110

It's just that you used to have to have a job that people sent their dumb letters to, to notice. This made "Engaging with fools" an occupational hazard rather than the 24/7 experience it is presently. 612388424

Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 04/10/2026yeah this is how I've been thinking about it. a basic attempt at safety would involve trying to only deliver the useful thing to end users, so the danger is contained; like a nuclear power plant delivers electricity. AI companies are like "but what if we shipped fissile material to your house?" 010

Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 01/10/2026a big part of it of course is that it'd be uncomfortable for people in power to reckon with, but the scandal also touches on deep cultural stuff for everyone. like you can't really separate it from the fact that female beauty standards are pretty youth-obsessed. 000

Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 29/09/2026well, sort of. the specific risk proposed by the hype men is hype, but bad actors abusing it and idiots over-relying on it because they fell hook line and sinker for the marketing is a huge problem. the solution - regulating it into the ground - is the same either way though I suppose. 010

Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 28/09/2026I guess the idea is it's nice to have your workspace centred, but especially if you have a decent sized screen (or a comically large one like me) moving your mouse back and forth just gets so annoying. Especially as in Unity/Godot you often have to drag stuff from the hierarchy to the attributes. 130
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 28/09/2026Like, the most common thing you'll want to do after clicking on an object is to edit it. Surely you'd want to make that as easy as possible. Anyway, Godot and Unity are also guilty of it, but at least in those you can edit the layout. 120
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 28/09/2026Something that drives me fully bananas is that every piece of software that has an object hierarchy puts the hierarchy on the left, and the attributes on the right! So most of the time after clicking on an object, you have to drag your cursor across your *whole screen* to edit it. Bananas! 130

Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 26/09/2026going from GM to Unity I had a big "oh so *this* is what a real game dev tool is like" realisation, and had the same feeling going from Unity to Godot 120
Sophky.. Spoophie? This isn't working. @sophies.games · 26/09/2026yeah I used to use it and it's less the language itself and more the engine just doesn't provide very useful abstractions or ways to make your own, but it is easier to get to grips with which is why it has so much purchase with devs who don't come from a programming background 120
