Had a brief glance at X/Twitter just now.

Oof

I heard the bit in Fight Club where he gets beaten to a pulp wasn’t even scripted. Edward Norton just lost his rag after one too many lewd comments from Leto. /joke

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit

Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here

Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse

Media and universities: AI is here to stay

I don’t think GitHub Copilot for Visual Studio would be half as appealing if Visual Studio’s built-in intellisense wasn’t broken in a fundamental way. Or maybe that’s why it’s broken in a fundamental way?

If you’ve ever used Clang/LLVM you know how much better things could be. #gamedev

When I get a new follower

5th observation. I have so much empathy for Miranda and Nigel. Miranda is not the devil here. Nigel is so real and tells Andy exactly what she needs to hear. Everyone gets hurt at some point, but this is where they need to be as this is how they function. Exceptional people are dysfunctional. /End

4th observation. Anne Hathaway is an Olympian level physical actor. Maybe too amazing for this role. We’re supposed to believe her character starts out frumpy and transforms into a style icon in a matter of weeks. Running in those heels is S-tier athleticism. My brain doesn’t buy it. /5

3rd observation. Andy’s boyfriend is a patriarchal piece of crap and she dodged a bullet. Does he not see that’s she’s playing the toughest of games here? He’s done because she missed his bday due to a work emergency. Oh it’s ok he got a sous chef job in Boston now. WHICH IS FINE. /4

2nd observation. The blond guy that chases Andy. The mentalist. You know who I mean. If the most common form of MeToo was boiled into one body. That guy. Urgh. /3

1st observation. Fashion and Video games industries. We are so similar in so many ways. Oh it stings. I didn’t see this coming in 2006. The triggers make an ouch noise. /2

So watching The Devil Wears Prada again to get up to speed on nr 2, because obviously I’m watching that one in the cinema soon. The cinema that serves alcohol in the auditoria. Spegeln in Malmö. /1

I had a look inside briefly and realized I didn’t want to know any further

What is “Italian Brainrot” and why is it pervasive enough to be a series of coloring books?

I mean if Epic aren’t planing to maintain UE5, why would any potential buyer? You don’t need to worry that it might happen. That’s already happening.

I’m under the impression that UE6 is based on UEFN, not UE5, from
a) reading Tim’s press release +
b) reading what ex-employees said in the aftermath.

Seems unlikely there’s a scenario where buying Epic is investing in UE5 as an ongoing #gamedev ecosystem.

Who took the wooden cabinet sides away and why?

You make a good argument.

Hey @delaneyking.bsky.social was this you?

At least Midjourney doesn’t freak out under 50Hz fluorescent’s lighting 🤔

Clearing out some old gear that should be disposed of responsibly, I reflect on how these cables are now worth more than the #leapmotion device they came with.

We have crows here in the nearby park. I love ‘em. So smart, and diplomatic.

Read this book “Commodore Amiga The Stolen Future” over the weekend while sick with stomach flu. Pretty good summary of the Amiga demo era. Not entirely accurate in places, but close enough. Some of my best teenage years in writing. Probably a factor in me moving to the Nordics too. #gamedev

So I have to ask: This new “market” for over-30s clubbing and raving…

Isn’t that simply the regular market? I did some of my most atrocious nights out in my 30s because that’s when I finally had enough money to do it.

Over-40s is a bit more reasonable as now you have to function in the morning.

Die Natur hat dem menschen eine Zunge, aber zwei Ohren gegeben, damit er doppelt so viel hört, wie er spricht.

*they said, typing with two thumbs*

We have an autonomous relationship, but we’ve agreed that them being lost-at-sea for two years can’t happen again, so they tend to stay nearby now.

I caved and ordered a tube

Yeah cheese is tough. But hey - parmigiano regiano is lactose free. It’s gone in the first two days of fermentation. I just found out the other day.

Gluten AND lactose free for the win 🏆
