I have cancelled my subscription to many things over political disagreements (Disney+, Amazon Prime, etc), but the NYT is the only one that continually, month after month, pops up and makes me think "wow I'm so glad I did that".
I almost never post negative things online but good lord.
The message from the NYT here literally is: the no kings protests are failing / can't work because they don't have "...the help of an expansive political infrastructure and wealthy donors..." 🙄🤮
In Knight Hike you're trying to eliminate all the numbers on a chess board — but — you can only step on numbers. It's harder then it looks, but also not too much. Nice for a quick brain break
for the past few months Andy Hull and I have been revamping some of my older iOS games, starting with... Really Bad Chess!
We shipped the first of several planned updates a few days ago on iOS. it includes bug fixes, prestige mode for ranked (with leaderboards) and a new daily puzzle: knight hike
we're definitely really thinking hard about this
is this your friends leaderboard? are you a champion on this game? We have a bug in presenting that clearly. It's on our long list, sorry about that
sorry about that! it was a bug with our scheduler. it is there today :)

I dunno why the error is so rough looking but I think it’s saying there’s already an account with that email
We shipped Bluesky support on @puzzmo.com! Not only can you use it to sync who you follow, but you can also get these cool little badges to figure out who else out here in the bsky-verse plays (you can see em on me and anyone else if you follow our labeler). connect up at puzzmo.com/bluesky

I've been trying to figure out how to pitch Bluesky integration for @puzzmo.com - I have 4 main goals:
- Follow @puzzmo.com
- Sync your bsky + puzzmo followers
- Use a bsky labeler for a 'streetpass' for Puzzmo users
- Put streak/stats in user registry so other apps can use it
Interested in ideas!
Today we launched the first of many features we plan to launch this year focusing on friends and community.
Friends leaderboards are now highlighted, and it's much easier to follow your friends!

Legally, it should be a requirement that any beeping appliance instead of beeping, simply says its own name, like a Pokémon
Like I said up top - what is interesting to me about this clip isn’t what he’s saying but how what he’s saying indicates that he has spent a lot of time working with these tools, seeing their capabilities, impinging their impact, and discussing all this with industry peers who are doing the same.
Hah oh no. I haven’t seen it yet. But I did see he was complaining about some of the restrictions on writing that Netflix put on them
