A blue sky with clouds. In the foreground is a green Primary Route exit sign for the A140. The destinations given are Ipswich Diss Norwich. It’s a image I took from google Maps as I wasn’t quick enough on the draw with my camera.
In East Anglia they even put their civic/ football beefs on road signs
I'm more worried about the "Crack Yoghurt"
Really, it needs to make fully remote working a legal right, which would help autistics and games workers who can't move for a job that might not be there in two months. But it's a start.
The government is consulting on flexible working rights and it closes 30 April. Sign to make hybrid working a legal right.

The man threatened to nuke a country*.
I'm OK with some chickening out of that.
Now please, America, GET HIM OUT
* (No, the pentagon may have hamstered furiously to find something else they could say was "civilization ending", but that statement was obviously a nuclear threat, nothing else.)
A photo of Mayor Mamdani watering grass with a watering can. The watering can is labeled “NYC parents who take the NYC Parent Survey at nyc gov/ParentSurvey” The grass is labeled “Universal Child Care”
We’re growing universal child care in New York City, and we want to make sure it helps parents where and how the they it need most.
Parents, please take the quick survey at nyc.gov/ParentSurvey so we can incorporate your personal preferences into our current and upcoming free child care programs.
Can someone please explain to him exactly how fallout works? He's been itching to use a nuke for ages and I don't think he grasps that you can't nuke just one country.
Things AI Should be Used for, But Isn't:
#9001 - Making my AR Pokemon react to my IRL cat.
Today, in "Random Cool Things I Got Fascinated By", I found an ENORMOUS website full of actual information that doesn't try to sell me anything!
www.essentialvermeer.com
It's well written enough that even if you don't care about Vermeer, you will.
This should be mandatory.
Diagram of global trade choke points
Handy cut out and keep guide to global trade choke points from @economist.com
Especially useful they have plotted share of trade v added travel distance if blocked. Shows why Hormuz is so disruptive!

I tried to put in a report on Copilot automatically flagging as pornography ANY content that includes women, and asking that future iterations of their guidelines remember that women also exist and like to make pictures featuring women like them.
My post was flagged as porn and deleted. :(

Are you kidding? Sometimes I even think they're taking a W when they're being interviewed.
What's that? That's not what taking...
I'll get my coat.
So hey! In more concrete terms: I got hit by the Epic layoff yesterday.
- Looking for Senior/Principal/Lead-ish roles around Level Design, Technical Design, Systems Design, etc.
- Strong preference for US/Seattle/Remote
Site is a little rough from the last time around, but: andrew-weldon.design
Things like this are PRICELESS when designing NPCs
Putting out my periodic call: if you have a book coming out about finance, econ, politics, media or tech, send me a galley. DM me and I’ll give you my email for your PR people. We do author interviews for Slate Money’s Money Talks series and I’m always thinking about columns on these topics
Oh dear gods, the movies write themselves. I wonder if I could sell them... "Zuckerberg", "Bride of Zuckerberg" "Mary Shelley's Zuckerberg"
BREAKING: Epic Games is laying off more than 1,000 workers today, sources tell Bloomberg News. Story hitting shortly
I think by "AI CEO" they meant "Another member of his species"
If anyone is doing that, there's an available writer right here <-
(Also if there are any indies out there who genuinely can't afford an ND, I'm happy to help with ND stuff for free for as long as I don't have a job. I am very bored.)
I once spent an entire game in the brig. My friends are all wise to the fact that I am *always* dealt the traitor card in anything like this we play.
Only six?! I never even realised...

"It was the day my grandmother somehow exploded"
Ruin a book by adding 'somehow' to the opening line.
"The sky was somehow the colour of a television set, somehow tuned to a channel that was dead somehow."
Probably to find the other "z". Look for a sleeping guy! He'll have lots of them!
