Economics: Humans only value things monetarily.
Sociology: Uh, I don't ...
Economics: Humans are always rational and value is calculated by a complex inner calculus.
Sociology: Uh, Psy, can you help?
Psychology: That's not how humans ...
Economics: ALSO MY SYSTEM WILL GROW EXPONENTIALLY FOREVER!!
Physics: *drops teacup*

procedural generation in #gamedev is one of those things where people who haven't done it thinks it actually saves you time
Some of the demos on Steam stopped working ๐

By my reckoning Apple has 2 major foundation technologies having trans women central to their development.
The ARM processor, core of Apple Silicon chips, co-developed by Sophie WIlson (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophie_Wilson)
Safari/Webkit - not just foundational to Apple but was the foundation of Google's Chrome (and via Chrome, Microsoft's Edge) browser - led by @lisamelton. Congratulations.
I'm sure there are many other trans people central to tech that I'm simply unaware of, we need them all.

"But I don't care about decentralization"
If you're here from twitter or reddit, you care about decentralization whether you realize it or not lol

A video that straddles the line of fascination/horror for me. This person mastered The Science of Graphics, and should be put in computer jail for the crimes committed here:

We're going to post something that isn't allowed on Twitter: a brief history of the term "cisgender"...
Reading into following a greener path and wishing more could be done about corporate pollution :/

What's got two thumbs and thought it was a bright idea to make a vector skeleton animation tool in #TIC80?

Related, there was an article about people getting pwned by pirated Windows ISOs on torrents.
DO NOT TORRENT WINDOWS.
MS literally offer the real install media online for free. How you get keys is your business but there is no reason to download a sketchy Windows iso in 2023

Why is it called a dental check-up and not a cavity search
What if videogames were developed so that playing on the lowest graphical settings was the base experience and anything higher than that was just a nice bonus? Because, holy shit, too many games have text or even visuals in general become hard to parse with lower settings
