My conclusion after a number of experiments is that the way to break past plateaus in your understanding is to do games that at a surface level are extremely silly but that are also physically demanding and also maybe cannibalism.
"John Gruber is the smartest, handsomest, wittiest most intelligent man ever to put words to screen, but I don't know about this whole, 'return to X' thing. (Oh please John don't stop inviting me on your podcast!!!)"
A terminal UI is just a GUI where the graphics card is your imagination and the rendering engine is 50 years of accumulated technical debt.

Went off on Deloitte at a dinner, and only after the rant did one of the attendees note that they work at Deloitte I regret nothing
Time for some 1am McDonald's and Red Bull cause IT'S KING OF PRO-WRESTLING 2026 TIME BABY
#SaltMageLore (Kinda; the cracked version) Ellie: Family sucks, but now you have a pet voidsent and can shoot fireballs out of your hands Grim: " 'I'll sleep when I am dead' and now I have insomnia" Kane: Always in the background Charon: "I don't know how I got here but everyone keeps screaming"
i restrained myself from sharing this during the movie but i must share it now
Me, cornfield: I’m just calling to see if you guys are waiting listing for transfers Local university hospital: “we are so full and waitlisted we aren’t waitlisting transfers… call back tomorrow?”
#IPracticeFreeThinkingWhen I see quotes on social media and suspect they’ve been made up. For as Confucius said “always be sceptical about attributed quotes on social media”
“Let us strangle the last king with the guts of the last priest” - Diderot “Let us strangle the last billionaire with the guts of the last AI executive” - 2026 update
Massive information leaks after abysmal megacorp decisions are so fascinating. Like watching a dead whale sink to the bottom of the ocean and have all the starved little creatures below pick apart what remains of the carcass to make good use of it.
Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your CV? Astronomer: it’s because of dark energy. Or dark matter. Dark something. We need a bigger telescope.
Ohtani has not been Ohtaning.
me playing factory game: i should work towards unlocking the next tier of technology also me: but what if i build electrical grid infrastructure so that i can zipline across the map on the cables
The AuDHD sensory rollercoaster: - Daylight, too bright! - Perfumes, too strong! ... - Getting stabbed a thousand times by a tattoo needle? Way more effective than yoga at getting you meditating.
Moats are cool. We need more moats around
Don't hand me a shit sandwich and tell me you're making sandwiches great again. If you can't make a *good* sandwich, fuck off out of the way.
I'm proud to report that 'AI Doomguy' who/which apparently tries to make 'AI ' play Doom on YouTube has one subscriber. In unrelated news: The YT algorithm can go an off itself
The Nobel Prize for Economics is awarded today. I'll probably get that. Currently 5 hours into a half-completed map I've quoted £50 for. If anyone needs business advice I'll be happy to help (assuming you're not results-driven).
i like how every single tf2 player has nonverbally understood þat every time you lose in rock paper scissors you have to killbind

Dear #effectivealtruism enthusiasts, does it ever occur to you that the future #AI is probably right to wipe out humanity? That to save the humans instead of building data centers, what we need to do is get clammy Sam, wario anyday and all the other LLM believers and put them in a room with no exit?
Since the NFL added overtime to the regular season in 1974 there has never been a week with two tie games.
i spent an entire goddamn night trying to debug internal bullet trace and particle emission code only to realize that the Evil Source Wizard is trying to decieve me by handing me a piece of weapon code that was always broken from the start
Rejected scenes from #Titanic
so like you're telling me it's not normal to have a voice that's like the toxic bitch version of yourself that tough love coaches you through the injection like you don't hear some variation on "that's it you're being so good for me" when shoving the needle into your tummy
Caught my cat jumping off the table in the weirdest way possible 😂
I'm an adult who makes adult choices and tonights choice is mac n cheese for dinner
Oh wow. If Generative Ai and Crypto NFTs would've had taken off at the same time, they would have absolutely imploded each other... Here's a machine that makes shitty images valuable. Here's a machine that makes shitty images cheap. The shitty images on either side are being paid for with compute.
I remember this one ROH iPPV where Kevin Steen got on mic while Eddie Kingston was getting stretchered and as they were maneuvering past the wires he went, “Any second now, the iPPV feed might go out!” Felt somewhat harsh (albeit funny) at that show. Would fit like a GLOVE on this one.
I autismmaxed so hard that now creating a whole chunk in our game doesn't show in the profiler
Flubber (1997) is hilarious because this guy invented a sapient robot that can feel love, but he's somehow still concerned that he has no scientific legacy.
Dad's glucose sensor failed. He emailed the company. Oh you can't email that to us, you'll have to ring tech support and they'll deal with it. What, you can't be arsed passing his message on to the technical support team? WTF is that all about? He's 80yo.
My chair now.

I always find it hilarious, when watching Dragongate’s English-language feed, that Ho Ho Lun is essentially the color commentator from Major League to Jae’s Uecker. Jae will call the entire match and Ho Ho will occasionally pipe in an “oh!!” or “wow!!” #Wrestlesky
I played the Haunted Paws Demo earlier with TheUnstableGoose and we found a piss emote and he walked through it in the game and i said "Oh my god! Goose you have piss paws!" because it left paw prints lol
There was a Hercules vs the Amazons movie, I think, and young Ulysses saw something. Hercules says "Ulysses! Tell me that story again!" So Tom Servo says, "OK, ahem... 'Stately, plump Buck Mulligan came from the stairhead...'" The other people I was with had no idea why I was laughing so hard.
Every Big Tech company and CEO calling to "slow down" AI development is the scene in Spaceballs with "Do something!"
Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume? Me: I was killing people. For sexual purposes.
"Is this the Bad Place?", Twilight Zone style. youtube.com/watch?v=FcxfuUVOvZU
AI slop pictures are interesting cause the creator is like "hahaha tricked you into thinking it was real but it was actually just a jape. It was AI generated! Humanity's combined scientific endeavours over millennia contributed to turning our planet's sand into microscopic silicon thinking machines potentially unprecedented within a large cosmic range, and now you have been tricked by this so I can have traffic to my website and get 10p in ads revenue"
The totally non-stressful Bay Area sports weekend, in a nutshell: Friday: Valkyries defeat the defending champs in overtime to advance to the WNBA Finals Saturday: Cal Football barely hangs on to win against Virginia Tech Sunday: 49ers barely hang on to win against Seahawks
About to start ripping the Next Gen DVDs. I think I'll just skip season 1. Pretend it doesn't exist.
