I hate the short form content future. 😒

"we want you to have fun with the cover letter and write 150-500 words about why you want to work here"

Fire your HR team if they write things like this in your job descriptions.

Noticing more people finally starting to poke their heads up from the shatbot induced fuge state. There might be hope for the human race after all.

Bugs? In my codebase? Rip and tear!

It's amazing how quickly looking at job boards can cure you of your will to live.

Does Blooskee like short form content? I dunno. FAFO. (P.S. it won't let me upload the short directly, here's a link instead)

For some reason subtitles have become the default for short form content. But you can tell people are using AI for it because they're WRONG so often. And we're just OK with that I guess?

Today I was told it was amazing that I still code by hand. For my next astonishing feat I'm gonna go read a book. On paper. Really let my freak flag fly.

Currently fighting the sleepies because a nap right now would only make my recent "sleep like a human" struggles worse.

You know how some logos get a name attached to them? Nike swoosh, NASA meatball, etc. I hereby declare the Claude logo shall henceforth be named "The Asshole"

That face 💀

Currently in the "might start chugging monsters and see when I crash" kinda mood. AMA.

Just saw a post that said "learning is for the machines now." I'm so fucking tired of how excited people are to surrender all their thinking to a word generator.

Remember when you had to go look in the softwaregore subreddit to see digital horrors for fun because the things you used regularly mostly worked?

Anyone else ever just get the urge to YOLO learn Rust?

We can fix you!

The existence of code slop before shatbots were made to produce code is a related issue that should also be addressed.

A reminder of why everything is broken on this website every other day now.

Why do I has the kinda brain that really hits it's stride right about now?

"why not just lean in to it, you don't have to wake up for work"

Because I'm terrified of never getting back on human hours again if I fall off the bandwagon.

Yes, usually within the immediately "connected" storage. Whatever that looks like in the game in question.

I've been thinking about game things a lot lately. I have thoughts.
- proximity crafting: Decent QOL, minimum impact on interesting gameplay if it's only within your base.
- fast travel: Should go away forever. Ruins emergent fun.
- yellow paint: Stop sniffing glue.

Thoughts?

I'm seeing signs that we're entering the "find out" phase. Finally, I've been waiting so long.

Was feeling pretty under the weather yesterday, feeling slightly better today but still not great. I'm gonna cancel the stream today and try to kick the last of this crud.

Silly Job Interview - Monty Python YouTube video by Leandro T. Silva

This is what job interviews are like in 2026, and I hope everyone remembers this truth when the tables turn once again.

Why is it that nobody running anything has ever even been in the same zipcode as a clue?

It's a time honored tradition I hear. Get well soon.

Companies have forgotten two things. Where the money comes from (customers) and who helps them collect it (employees).

Eventually they will learn these things again, the hard way.
