I’ve heard progressivism described as sitting in a long traffic line, getting a green light and letting someone from a side street merge in front of you. Yes you’ve done good by the guy you’re looking at, but you didn’t even think about the guys waiting in line behind you.

I told Claude I wanted the combat and wounding system to be more viceral so Claude spent the day in his "kill room" and has been sending me cursed screenshots like this while I've been at work.

Delete Granola bro. We're switching to Strawberry. Did you sign up for Pistachio yet? I sent you an invite to our Gingerbread team. Check your inbox on Syrup. You need to make an Iced Vanilla Latte account to access Almond Croissant. Hold on, lemme add you to Chicken Tikka Masala

All this time gdpr was just for crushing small business. Who would have thought
‼️ EU governments approved a GDPR change to let companies train AI on Europeans' personal data without consent. It makes AI training a possible "legitimate interest", judged case by case. Parliament must still agree. Max Schrems calls it a "digital expropriation" of Europeans.

Day at Microsoft, instagram is full of this.
Hey @Microsoft , I will give you an idea to do layoffs. 1. Open youtube... Search "Day in life of a Microsoft Engineer". 2. You will get list of people who only eat but do not work in office. 3. Layoff them

Dudes will be like, I could vibe code steam in a week and then not vibe code steam
It's really sad that the games industry is drained by a 30% tax on gross revenue. You could vibe code a Steam alternative in a week. Cloudflare egress is basically free. The industry is in desperate need of a distribution platform that allows developers to keep their revenue. Networks effects and the fanatic obsession with "muh Steam library" will make this very difficul. But if devs could actually keep their earnings, we'd have a greater selection of better games and far more financial success stories.

❌ Local gym keep your name and phone number ✅ Giant companies train AI on all your personal data Did I get it right? What's the point of GDPR again?

Maybe we should delete the 99% of stuff that is just wasteful and friction-causing, the main purpose of which seems just to be to increase attack surface. xitter.gq/unusual_whales/status/…
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman: "I don't even know a dramatic enough word to use… models can find bugs that are outside of the normal threat model of what we think a hacker can do… hardware-level, insane stuff… I no longer think we're gonna be able to just patch all the bugs."

chaser: do you know what other company takes 30% while doing way less than what Steam does and is aggressively protecting their monopoly? I'll give you three guesses.
we can argue whether the value justifies the take or not (I think it does btw, Steam does _A LOT_ for you besides just hosting and collecting payment for your game), but the claiming that Valve is the _worst_ company in gaming is, to put it diplomatically, unhinged.

It's been reported by the Telegraph that Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered Israel to support Argentina on the Falklands over Britain. Why should Britain be expected to defend Israel's national interests if Israel's leadership refuses to respect ours? Britain is not obliged to give any foreign government unconditional political or military support. Our foreign policy should be guided by British interests, and British interests only - that is the Restore Britain position. The Falkland Islands are British, and will remain British.
