mario's lawyers,,, welcome to the resistance

we finally reached the end of this calendar event i accidentally made 12 years ago

I hate this goddamn ADHD brain that works better when I'm physically on the verge of passing out

My only minor concern is how it also applies "covered app stores" which is broad enough to include possibly websites like GitHub, which don't require any account to download software. The bill only seems to apply during account creation, not requiring an account to download (still not a lawyer)

I do not think this will apply to enterprise Linux which is exclusively administered by adults, or embedded devices which don't provide user accounts at all. It's probably a toothless law anyway but railing against it as if it's KOSA (an actually very bad law) is... misguided

None of this bill seems to mandate users do anything or provide ID. Parents can create adult accounts for their kids if they don't want to share age info. I would've liked more language around security and privacy than 1798.501. (b4) but at least it's there.

1798.501. (a2) OS provides slightly obfuscated age group to apps (<13, 13-16, 16-18, 18+)
1798.502. (a) accounts created before 2027 deadline don't seem required to add the info, just allow
1798.501. (b4) apps can't share this data with third parties

I'm just going to link it here and call out the sections that matter IMO (not a lawyer btw)

legiscan.com/CA/text/AB10...

1798.500. (i) User = child
1798.501. (a1) Parent setting up child's account provides date/age/both (age as # seems sufficient)
(a3) minimum info required only (not a full ID)

This person deleted their post, but it was basically the same. Apparently Bluesky ate the rest of the posts where I posted content from the bill, so I guess I'll redo that when I get a chance bsky.app/profile/drew...

I already debunked this, it's not an ID verification. It's a parental control API that already exists on multiple operating systems. It doesn't apply to user accounts for adults, and the law doesn't even require users to use it.

apparently nobody thinking about you - not even actively disliking you - because you've failed to be relevant in over a decade is what "cancel culture" is now I guess

My primary time sink in building software has never been typing, it's either Meetings That Could've Been A Slack DM, Waiting On Design To Respond To A Yes/No Question In Slack, or CI Broke

I knew something was off about that article, not to mention that rumor mills were the original internet content slop so no surprise that's gone to AI

Why @why.bsky.team Until December of last year was using LLMs as fancy autocomplete for coding. It was nice for scaffolding out boilerplate, or giving me a gut check on some things, or banging out some boring routine stuff. In the past two months Claude has written about 99% of my code. Things are changing. Fast

Ah, that explains the Bluesky app crashing because it can't handle a string

Horror games can't help themselves with having a first encounter with a monster in an area with an obvious loop for them to chase you around

Resident evil 9ine requiem for PC™️ defaulted to 20fps path tracing when I asked for "quality" which is kinda like telling the barber "I like it short" then he decapitates you

A minor league hockey team had a wiener dog race. Zero thoughts, just vibes and absolute chaos. A thing of beauty

I can't remember if BP requires flow to be a tree or DAG, so I could see that being an issue. I wonder if the BP compiler detects this as an early return case or if it happens organically from the typical control flow transformations. It's an interesting problem

Did you ever find documentation that this is intended or considered undefined behavior because all function paths should end in a return node?

I would die on the hill in API review that this shouldn't compile, or a loud and annoying undefined behavior warning at least. Are there blueprint linters out there?

I can only imagine how many games have shipped bugs that are a direct result of something like this lmao
