IMO the technological singularity tech bros are endlessly saying is right around the corner is just a secular rapture, a moral offloading, kicking the can of responsibility for the welfare of the human species down the road to a technological god who will solve the problems and absolve the guilty.

I think it's funny that the Apple Vision Pro is the last bit of new Apple tech done by Tim Cook. When I was at Oculus, both before and after acquisition, all anybody talked about was that once Apple made their version of VR, it would be so obviously awesome that we'd be dead in 6 months.

It’s quite interesting that folk in entirely different domains can unblock themselves while “mods are asleep”

But I have this feeling it’s actually just shovelling shit uphill on folk who are already swamped.

It’s probably time to start a set of blogpost on the joys of programming, which will discuss some of the more novel things I’ve been doing in my home engine / c99.

Just because the global tech space makes me feel like I’m losing my mind.

I had heard people at #CHI2026 say that they didn't want AI-generated podcasts to be made on top of their work. While this perspective is totally understandable, I thought the podcasts could potentially be useful. But after looking up one of mine, I can't believe this feature was allowed to launch.

The currently escalating tech backlash must be put in the context of:

“people have been listening to the most insufferable techbros in the world gleefully threaten everyone else with mass unemployment for over 6 years, and they’re sick of their shit”

In a statement to CTV News Sunday morning, Ford said the decision comes after hearing
public feedback and reassessing priorities.
"Despite the best of intentions, I have heard and agree that now is not the right time for the expense of a government plane. The province is working with Bombardier and other partners to sell the plane as quickly as possible. I will continue the work of building relationships with business and political leaders, both across Canada and in the United States, to fight tariffs, attract investments and create jobs for Ontario workers.

It’s absolutely incredible that one of the largest Japanese-run Go servers, which has been running since 1992, is still accessed entirely via Telnet. And while most players use GUI clients that use Telnet under the hood, you can still connect manually and get ASCII graphics streamed to you

someone else said this today but i think this is less of a reflection on AI and more of the power and precarity of the tech industry in the 2020s

Today, exactly 1 year ago, I started a new project, that later became Gloom Gate. It began as a little experiment with pre-rendered backgrounds and it evolved into a full grown game-dev project I'm really proud of!

Cuboid Colony
{G}{U}
Creature — Insect

Flash

Flying, trample

Increment (Whenever you cast a spell, if the amount of mana you spent is greater than this creature’s power or toughness, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature.)

It’s chaotic in the midst of the swarm—only when you step back does the pattern emerge.

They legitimately thought my unicycling game STREET UNI X was manipulated by Sweet Baby to have a trans person in the trailer and in the game when really it is that way because I am that person and I made the game and the trailer exactly how I wanted to make it
