I need Jacob to do a video about Marathon. All of my most Marathon friends watch your videos, but they *don't own Marathon*. You could single-handedly save us and my friendship with them (this is a joke but also I want to know what you think, it's so good)
Yeah I mean...I work in a different lane than security (like several lanes over, maybe...more than several) but speaking as someone who is a low-level programmer who sees news, corporate dysfunction, and the code *any* AI model produces...not many data points are needed! Ahhhhh!
Amongst many other things, 100% agree. Stuff like this is coming out every day, it is clearly a mess

I feel like Sun Tzu really missed out on "Invent Pete Hegseth and give him to the enemy"
Truly a game for the girls who are very into things that other people find disconcerting, it sings, it is so good
Bungie the best to ever do it
It is extremely weird that voting for someone isn’t enough for y’all, and that we need to consider party representatives to be perfect, and also a *truly weird* number of white people have taken to using “people hate Black women” as a cudgel to somehow prove…I don’t know what tbh.
The way Mayor Frey tut tuts those who've taken a too-permissive attitude towards public disorder and open drug use, you'd think he was in his first few months on the job, not his third term. Does he know he's been Mayor of Uptown this whole time too?

this whole uptown safety ambassadors debacle just shows how powerless the city council is to the jacob frey administration
katie cashman was hung out to dry for 2 years with frey not implementing the program they funded, but suddenly with her gone and elizabeth shaffer in, frey can implement it
I don’t think we quite appreciate how consequential Kotaku’s revitalization under new ownership, after being dragged to the absolute brink by Great Hill, is for the industry. It proves what many of us knew in our hearts; bad management is the beating heart of digital media’s woes.
Great piece that reiterates something everyone who is not a weird bay area freak or sucked into the AI hype cycle understands implicitly. There's no magic left, these people have barren imaginations.
You forgot trying to get rid of trial by jury :)
Have they tried yelling at conservatives who didn't like Trump and voted for him or abstained? If we're shouting at the imaginary leftists in Wisconsin, maybe worth yelling at the real conservatives? Maybe???????
ICE is still here just not with the same size and media attention, but still operating lawlessly trying to terrorize our community. Make sure you’re still plugged into local networks so you’re able to help when needed.
Last night’s ICE abduction near 20th & Central didn’t happen in a vacuum. Friday morning they were found stalking people at Huset Park and earlier in April they kidnapped someone near East Phillips community center.
Hey so for people who live in reality instead of some internet politics Gordian knot of fake academic bullshit “We have to elect Harris” is actually pretty clear, I am quite confident 0 people would find that insufficient to overcome criticism that could indicate otherwise. Like, 100% sure
It sure would be confusing if she had a history of asking the world to pull her into war with Iran
I think Gene Wolfe also has said he’s normal tall guy height, but reading the scenes with Thecla makes him sound near-exultant height and she’s like 8 feet tall
I mean there is a movement especially among younger people to have dumber phones…partially because of how they destroy our attention spans but also because of surveillance and AI 🙃
While I feel very little about the "adult bathhouse ban" fracas, it is rich to see Jacob Frey having a fit over the fight for it to be repealed, given the many months we have all been forced to watch him jerking off on national television.
I understand it's my windmill and I'm tilting at it and will lose
I understand it would be better for my career, give me more chance of entree to the fancypants tier of elite organizations with millions of dollars, to just accept this inequity
But writing is work.
You should be paid for your work.
In 2024 The Conversation had 8.3M in revenue and 7.8M in expenses and paid $0 to writers. Is that really ok with you?

Being “bad” at art is good, actually! My favorite excerpt from my appearance with @emilymbender.bsky.social on the @404media.co podcast with @samleecole.bsky.social in the episode “The Marketing Tricks of ‘Artificial Intelligence’”.
Not everything that breaks is technically the fault of vibe coding but the kind of culture that would foster vibe coding is the kind that produces a lot of shit that breaks.
Wow is this really what we were trying to load all day? Couldn't wait to see this?
Oops not writing well worded tweets about this stuff because it makes me so👏mad👏.
It feels corny to say but wow a lot of people choose to not learn new things or develop skills and even if this shit worked at all (imo, it doesn’t), I’m not sure how anyone thinks this is a good idea.
Won’t talk about work but wow I will say copilot has been put in some positions where it is well positioned to know when a thing would happen; it did not find it, people bothering to look did!
And as someone who has tried to hire C/C++ programmers from new masters grads: ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!
Yeah I gotta be honest, the art rules the story stuff rules the guns feel good the solo experiences are high drama, partially because the lost loot does not feel as devastating. Like. I won’t claim to be a genre expert; it’s a good goddamn video game.
Wired writers are breathlessly writing about how now THE COMPUTERS can design chip layout. You don’t say. This will change everything. Wow and they’re going to do performance testing on them too? Sure is crazy how no one has ever thought of this. The Future. 🫠
