@roster.pub do you have any documentation on tools available to space moderators? Both for moderation and as well as proactive actions, e.g. pinning threads, having hidden forums, splitting threads, etc.

hi, I worked in indie games for 10 years and sorry, they're also burning down. you just don't hear about it because it doesn't make the news when a studio of 19 lays off 7, even when it's 200 small studios doing that

I’ve been talking about Alysa Liu’s story about her quitting skating only to come back and become even better because she did it for herself and this came to me in a dream…

btw the idea that potential employers do not bother to look at your socials is a complete lie!!

Posting can get u jorb or lose u jorb. be kind to good people, don't follow drama, and don't feel compelled to have a take on everything.

This is really neat and I too have been looking for something like this for a while. Is this your code, and is it OK to make modifications to it for personal use?

People talk about this stuff in terms of how much it'll suck for gaming and I hate to inform you how many MRI machines, X-Rays, all sorts of other vital machinery are just a Windows IoT Edition PC in a beige plastic box with a big magnet/accelerator/whatever attached.

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.

Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

valentine's day isn't just for couples, it's also a day to celebrate love. for instance, i would love it if housing prices came down.

Why chasing twitter's approval doesn't work The opinions you believe are universal are being fed to you by an algorithm designed to show you what you want.

Today's Load-bearing Tomato addresses the age old question:

"why don't the devs just [SOCIAL MEDIA OPINION]"

It turns out, "a lot of reasons", but if you never have to test your ideas, you never have to discover why they're not any good.

I’m kinda glad to see big companies finally getting more comfortable with handing the keys to their big franchises to cool indie devs with a proven track record. Castlevania by Motion Twin, God of War by Mega Cat. Smart! The New Hollywood games moment is perhaps here, baby!

Working remotely also helps mitigate the impact of layoffs. If we're going to have constant boom and bust cycles, then WFH is the least we can do to accommodate that.

Making people relocate and then laying them off is cruel, expensive, and should be illegal.

Games need to be built differently. If every game lives or dies by its day-one, there is no future, period -- live games demand new production plans, and your first year needs runway/planning.

For employees -- not content. Because you need those to make stuff. Infuriating and sad. Love to the team.
