me: man I hate reverse engineering decompression routines. what if I just take the ghidra decomp of the routine and stuff it into a new C file, and call that from my python script? Surely that'll work?

me: hurray, it worked! I can see no downsides to this!

guy who owns the rights to the game: Hey I wanted to rerelease it with some minor graphical changes, and I saw you reverse engineered the compression. Could you help us do that, since you understand the compression?

me: UHHHH NOT REALLY

Who needs Ghidra when you have autism and a box of markers?

Honestly, at this point, my horror at the "The computers are totally thinking!" types is shifting.

For a long time, I considered it mostly a mark of how gullible some folks are.

But as the march of "progress" marching forward, I realize the horror is actually how small they imagine other people to be.

To the sufficiently advanced booster, we're all just p-zombies.

Btw... last week I worked at av event sponsored by Monster

Or "Mønster" as it says in the logo...

Which, in Norwegian, is what we call it when you're knitting something with a nice pattern on it 🙃

(Also, if that pattern is made of monsters, it would be a monster-mønster) 😎

after the success of “netflix and chill” they're saying the new hotness is “torrented monogatari and crying”

Molotov cocktails are just the technological reality now. You can adapt your workflows to them or get left behind.

At my company every employee has to use at least one per day. It’s a vibrant and competitive field full of potential.
