A while back, I learned a pressure cooker chili recipe that was 👨‍🍳🤌🏼💋. But really, anything that you normally slow cook is a good choice!

From Palantir's insane manifesto: 21. Some cultures have produced vital advances; others remain dysfunctional and regressive. All cultures are now equal. Criticism and value judgments are forbidden. Yet this new dogma glosses over the fact that certain cultures and indeed subcultures . . . have produced wonders. Others have proven middling, and worse, regressive and harmful. 22. We must resist the shallow temptation of a vacant and hollow pluralism. We, in America and more broadly the West, have for the past half century resisted defining national cultures in the name of inclusivity. But inclusion into what?

Goose Chase meme: Which cultures are middling, regressive, and harmful? Which cultures, Palantir?!

Okay, this isn't a live-service game.

It's a small, $15 regular 5v5 multiplayer game. The only DLC is a $5 'supporter pack' that gives every character one more skin and the soundtrack.

It's exactly what people have been demanding because they HATE live-service games. And then gets punished as one!

This just in:

Marketing team of company says their product is SO good that you will never want to replace it ever again, and it will always work and never break and is absolutely worth the low price!

...

I think part of it is when those people *don't* make the job easier and instead pester people to repeat updates and redo conversations, it can be extra annoying.

(I agree you that an effective person in this role is one of my favorite kinds of video game making folks)

- A new HQ which has remained vacant since 2021: $95m
- Running a store that nobody wants to use: Well over half a billion.
- Largely frivolous lawsuits driven by ego rather than any real business logic: "Billions"

Someone who is good at the economy help me budget this, my industry is dying.

If there is one thing I miss from the past it is when search engines searched for the words you typed

Increasingly of the opinion that the correct answer to the Trolley Problem is "fuck you, why are you so fixated on finding reasons to justify killing people?"

My user research team told me PvPers keep driving away our PvEers so I asked how many PvEers we have and they said they just buy more advertising to attract new PvEers so I said it sounds like we're just feeding PvEers to PvPers and then our lead designer started crying.

For the love of god, can we please call generative AI exactly that?
I'm so tired of people conflating AI and genAI, even by folks who should know better. It makes any discussions about things like gameplay AI near impossible.

A Generation Got Told to 'Just Try Harder.' The Neuroscience Just Said 'That Was Never Going to Work. 400 people with ADHD told me what advice destroyed them. The research just said "yeah, we knew."

Gretchen Weiners Mean Girls Brutus and Caesar speech: Why Should Caesar get to Stomp around like a giant, while the rest of us try not to get smushed under his big feet? What's so great about Caesar? Hm? Brutus is just as cute as Caesar. Brutus is just as smart as Caesar. People totally like Brutus just as much as they like Caesar. And when did it become okay for one person to be the boss of everybody, huh? Because that's not what Rome is about. We should totally just stab Caesar!

Happy Ides of March, everyone!

A-doyyyy
