Two panel comic. Panel 1: a digital kiosk at the entrance of a parking garage with a dispensed ticket. The screen display reads: PLEASE TAKE TICKET BELOW. Panel 2: a T-Rex is sticking its little arm out the window of its partially opened car door, trying to reach the ticket.
These are seared into my memory

New Blog: Let Games Die
"Let Code Die is rooted in a trust that if we have code that we like and we lose it, we can write it again. What would it mean to trust ourselves as game developers, designers, critics and players in the same way?"

In early 2037, Boxer’s warnings of a storm and other perceived codes in his language prompted QAnon to rally around Second Advent under the assumption that it was a sting operation enacted by former US President Donald Trump. [2] Online chatter associated with QAnon tags indicated that its adherents began to attribute the Messianic prophecy to Trump, whom they believed had faked his death in 2023 to covertly prepare for his return to power.

After years away I have returned to writing about video games with a piece for Remap about the less immediately obvious problems with DLSS 5
A friend of mine did a machine learning project like ten years ago where they taught a program to detect invasive plants from drone images. We did not call it "AI", we called it machine learning.

A red-haired man sits with an arm over a chair and a musket across his lap in front of him is a steak on a table. Behind him is the logo: Stranger Still decorated with an antler. On the wall behind him are various animal skulls.
