Gonna re-repost my article from yesterday as a treat because it really condenses a dozen things i care about and said before

A gaming CEO recently went mask off chud, tarnishing the image of a game i like in the process

In this, i discuss what engaging with the complexity of gender in games where you can create your character should mean - and it doesn’t mean simply changing language.

suspected AI slop, but also funny 

watching a YouTube short about poaching large quantities of eggs, and the chef says that he steams them at 63 degrees [Celsius] for 45 minutes.

As a programmer slash reverse engineer with two decades of experience, I have seen many things. But today I saw something new. A full SaaS application with its entire backend interface built as … a single <canvas> tag.

If you try to tell people on tumblr it makes no sense they will get mad at you defending their "system."

But really what matters is that the people they know and like are there, and they have figured out how to interact with those people. That more logical systems exist doesn't matter. That systems that aren't "corporate walled gardens" doesn't matter. It's the people. And the people are why I keep going back from time to time.

The people are ALSO why I'm mostly happy here.
