Bad news but human life is already treated as a resource to be extracted from. We don’t need magical scifi brain computers for that reality.

What does this mean in actual terms? What is being input to the system and what is being output? From the neural cells specifically, I mean. And how is it adjusted to perform the task? I wish the article had any of this detail.

Well this is fuckin' awful. I can't believe Grammarly had the nerve to even try to defend this, too.

I could really go for a blue freeze pop

Interestingly and unsurprising to me I guess is that most of these are flow state games. Melee, rocket league, DDR and Quake in particular (but the others too, except maybe LttP).

And now I remember I couldn’t have fit Geometry Wars in there. Too many games!!!

Major runners up: Life is Stange (how the fuck did I forget this), Guitar Hero 2, FFX, Morrowind, Commander Keen, Doom, Red Alert 2

Honestly I could probably do a “my 25 games” and still feel like I’m leaving things out.

covers of the 9 games mentioned in the post

Each of these games represent a significant epoch of my life, each different. I couldn’t find NexusTK but I would’ve slotted it instead if Starfox.

ALttP, Megaman X, Quake 2, Asherons Call, DDR, Smash Melee, Starfox 64, WoW, Rocket League

I'm not a designer (except insomuch as everyone on the team contributes their feedback), so I don't have any specific insight here, but I wanted to share this talk that Ion gave not too long ago on this exact topic, there are a few gems in there I think. www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_8J...

If you're in the game industry and use LinkedIn, please do me a favor and share my post about Sentona Games screwing me out of money I'm owed. Thank you

In software engineering sometimes if something looks broken actually no it isn't, don't touch it. Made a really "benign" change in some code today expecting the code calling into that code to be more sane than it was. Broke textures in the in-game store (not in prod). Oops.

The Nepali place near me has BOGO entrees & I have a $15 credit w/ Uber through my AmEx. I'm about to get an irresponsible amount of butter chicken.

i feel like starter jackets are due for a comeback. maybe we do a pokemon licensed starter pokemon starter jacket series?

gamefreak please think about it

Would you believe I only have two meetings today (only 30 minutes each, woohoo) and yet somehow they managed to be scheduled for exactly the same time?

not explaining, these are 4am vibes

explaining that orange juice was not traditionally a part of breakfast until a dedicated marketing campaign in the early 1900s to sell more oranges is one of the harder things a parent must do, but sadly it is the world we live in

(kudos, your kid sounds awesome)

ah unlucky, they’re for seasoning but you’re supposed to remove them before serving
