I left de industry but continued after-hours with RL intermezzo's. One way to stay focused is to jot down all coding experiences, bugs, plans, checklists, and ideas in a 'book' and rewrite often. Slow messy and fragmented, but it helps visualize the direction while wading through my own spaghetti.

The Minitel system always had a funny ring to it, but I was also too young to fully appreciate it's possibilities to take it seriously. The pricing model was typically short sighted, and it was French-only, but in hindsight it had great potential. So yes, let's do stuff like this again!

If France could lead the world with Minitel in the 1980s, surely Europe can free itself from Silicon Valley’s shackles now? | Alexander Hurst Back then, France punched above its weight when it came to tech. The EU needs it to rediscover its taste for the cutting edge, says Paris-based writer Alexander Hurst

Great article on France's Minitel and the call for the 🇪🇺 tech sector to step up and be imaginative, creative, smart, and persistent. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

.. you don't even have the option to search or act on it anymore. Too far-fetched and dystopia? Perhaps, but imo we need to stand up and protect the real machinery even if it is slow and inefficient, or we'll all be data prisoners with a subscription model at some point.

... you can just pay your monthly premium fee to enter shit in a premium query box and destroy the planet without realizing, only to keep your slow brain figure out the next query, with the feeling the answers tend to give less and less, but hey, AI replaced the entire web/company infrastructure, so

So, AI cab handle Cobol? Who cares about Cobol. Who cares about Fortran, who cares about Lisp, who cares about Java, Ada, Delphi, Lua, C, C++, python and everything else when..

Tech Company: At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus from classic sci-fi novel Don't Create The Torment Nexus.

FOSS nerds: the Torment Nexus cannot be ethical until it is Open Source

So with coding solved and all, what's going to be your strategy to stay in the dev game (or game dev) biz? Me I work on 3d meshing in fem sims, which appears not solved yet (so far).

Latest released Epstein birthday card reveals more victims and eludes to another very secret but powerfull connection.

I hope Infantino, FIFA & co. are so heavely in debt that the next WC can just be the financial disaster the world really needs. Just don't go. Just do t watch. It's almost too easy.

Life in the US? Pretti Good.

Disagree. Grew up with Sierra and LucasArts games. Learned how to toy from the beginning. Back then the Boomers were shouting down fps games b/c they were "too linear", including the likes of Doom & HL. The game should not play you, is w I'm saying. Sandbox were a marvel.

El reg making 20 year old jokes on hot Ai hw : priceless 👌 🤣

Xx years from now, files will surface. Testimony will be given. Reasons will float. But the deafening silence and impotence will be remembered as loud as the Holocaust itself. Maybe it's time for a new word to describe today: the time of Apalosgeran - the mute brute.

Look, if the best chest-thumping army in the world bombed almost every nook and cranny and still did not turn up a hostage, then, just maybe, it's because the pretext is perfect for just about anything in Netanyahu's brain while he plays warlord in his backyard. So they "can't" find them.

Previously, I admired the courage, intellect, and the incredible strength of jewish people to stand up, find a place in the world, move past the Holocaust atrocities, and be larger than life. But that quality has completely evaporated. No courage, no humanism, just brutalities and smiling silence.

The shared responsibility of the impotent West is crushing, but even more tangible is the West's understanding that Jewish societies all over the world are mostly mute, quietly sitting in a corner, as they watch kids being bombed and pushed around for nearly 2 years.

The proposed 'solution' seems to balance between a fun resort and a prison. It's as devoid of any genuine intent as can be. Meanwhile, all that ever had meaning for those people is being erased - for any future Palestinion generation to come - almost like a primal tribe murdering out another.

I think generalizing problems and blaming a certain singled out ethnic group never solved any problem. But how can jews anywhere in the world stay mute on Israel's actions in Gaza? Do they really think this is a valid course of action?

Look what came in the mail today! Philoforest, the new filosophically inspired #boardgames from Isabelle Desegher! A true exclusive and limited edition :)

I was more an st/ft2 freak but yeah It was always there to impress :)

I can allmost hear it without sound just by watching that interface..

For me,it was a bit tough to bite through in one go, and it needs quite a bit of digesting, but it has that strange power to call you back and enrich further. Great stuff. Good luck with your journey!

I can warmly recommend it, as it leaves plenty of room to make up your own mind and decide if Adler is a name may want to remember for the rest of your life, as I will surely do! The book is written like a dialogue, just like Socrates wrote down dialogues with Plato and students.

This book brought me answers to questions lingering in the back of my mind, answers that now seem obvious. It raises the right issues and provides tools to simplify life while striving for that divine balance between freedom and happiness.

How could Adler have been ignored in our Western world views? It seems almost intentionally left out, but luckily, Japanese thinkers wrote this brilliant book that reconnects our Greek/Roman heritage with a modern way of looking at things.

Just finished "The courage to be disliked" by Ichiro Kishimi &Fumitake Koga. It goes far beyond what I first thought was a book about the value of an honest critical comment to bring up in a meeting. I read some philosophy before, but this book was my first introduction to Adlerian filosophy.

After learning about the Goldberg Gate Yemen Signal, I think Hegseth, Waltz and Vance should be thrown off any passenger flight into Europe. They are an outspoken threat to transatlantic friendship full stop.

Hi, Don't be shy, you had something demoscene, so I followed you =)
