Ergonomics for hand composition are less relevant now. The most important trait is how does a long-lived project perform when written by a coding agent. I’m curious if anyone has any takes on the different approaches to…
IMO we won’t see AGI until the models are sitting inside bodies with senses and gut biomes and opposable thumbs and the like, all influencing the context window in real time. Intelligence is a full-bodied experience

I had a lot of fun. I think the progression curve gets boring around Boss Level 11. Introducing a prestige system could extend the runway. I thought both Factor and Divide were interesting twists to the battle system,…
From a non-dual perspective either nobody is a p-zombie or everybody is a p-zombie. I think the trajectory of LLMs will be that consciousness sensations are abundant and low value, and that will give all the non-dual…
It’s going to be a long road, but I think as LLMs and their offspring create more and more convincing arguments for silicon consciousness we will conclude that consciousness is about as real as humours, and we’ve all…
Snakebird is my vote for best puzzle game of all time
I think of it like a technology checkpoint. Make sure you got as far as everyone else when they gave up, so when the next innovation in that space comes along you can start back up on even footing. You want to have your…
Listed in the article are the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children and the Internet Watch Foundation, which monitors and removes child sexual abuse material from the internet. The recent Meta…
I’ve given these sorts of haystack search struggles completely over to the LLM. Whether it’s finding a bug in code or searching documentation for the answer, I view it as a near-obsolete skill. The past couple of…
I liked the results of vectorizer.ai and recraft.ai Input image is important too. When working with the generalist LLM on the raster art, give it context that you are making a logo, direct it to use strokes and fills…
If you search for ‘vectorization AI’ there are a handful of specialized tools and apis that can do it. It worked well for a handful of logos I wanted to convert. Nano banana generated the raster logos, and these other…
I wouldn’t say A Theory of Fun is “the book.” It’s more a coffee table read. “The book” is Jesse Schell’s The Art of Game Design
Most people don’t stay. They burn out and find work/life balance in other fields. Once they realize how depressed their wages were in the games industry there’s no hope of getting them back.
I don’t think volume of engagement is the main issue with social media. Rather, it’s the scope of access. Social media exposes us to too many people and we forget their humanity. Instead of information spreading across…
It’s a start. I’m bummed at how narrowly scoped this is. When the RFC period was open I wrote in to highlight how apartments charge surprise pet rent fees that don’t appear until the application process.

What happens now? We unbundle search results? Sounds cool!
Self-identifying as an introvert or an extrovert is a limiting belief. Free yourself from this pseudo-science garbage.
I replaced breakfast with a bottle of Huel six years ago, and I don't see a reason to stop. I still cook for lunch and dinner and I skip the Huel on occasion to brunch with friends. No need to be a zealot about these…
I played a party game where you had to describe surviving a deadly scenario ("your car went off a bridge") and a LLM would decide if your answer would work or not. A few rounds in we found the best strategies where…
I do this technique too, and it's a great time for it. The OLED screen on the new iPad signals that Apple devices are moving to a better panel. If you've been waiting for the right time to move off an Intel Mac and onto…
There's not a mainstream use case for 4k content. Show watchers don't care enough about the quality improvement to pay their streaming provider $5 more for the 4k stream. Even the gaming enthusiast market has rejected…
I think these 'gateway drug' believers will be pleasantly surprised. One reason it's a gateway drug is because of a line of thought like this: 1) Govt says cannabis is the most dangerous drug. 2) I try cannabis, nothing…
