Steve Jobs also thought the Segway would flop once he actually saw and used the prototype. He upset Kamen because he said it sucked and spit out a great list of reasons why. I mean, that’s the kind of shit he was really good at.

I think there's a scene in the DVD extras where he sees that some extra in a bad skeleton costume got into the foreground of a shot, and Raimi says, "It's horrible! I love it!"

One of my favorites is Raimi's Army of Darkness. It was my gateway to all kinds of fun (Evil Dead -> Tromeo and Juliet, eventually).

This is everything I love about game dev in a single post. It’s all about figuring out what to simulate at what level.

It’s art and magic and wisdom.

Fucking beautiful!

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

there's another group of people who are constantly and viciously being murdered by police, with basically no fanfare, no attention, no sympathy, and it's folks with severe mental illness. i'm not chiding anybody but i guess i just wish it was acknowledged more often

You’ve inspired me to pull out my copy of that book again. It probably could have helped my 2025 be a bit less… devastating.

The most important point to keep in mind is that you call methods of children, while you signal to make a parent/global object perform an action.

Call down, signal up.

I feel like most of my game’s structure emerges from ensuring signals are available to the right listeners.

Peacemaker on HBO is worth your time, and directly ties into Superman in season 2.
