Would you like any guidance on sawing off your foot? It's the only way

As a solo dev, I could have made a better looking thing for literal billions of dollars. I might farm out the occasional thing, but still...

(I was prompted into this thought by recent interactions but am not talking about very recent interactions, cos that would be doubling down on the weird)

That thing where you think 'feed is good this morning' and you 'like' a ton of stuff, and then you realise you clicked on someone's profile by mistake and you've liked all their stuff going back a few months, and now the best thing is simply never to interact with them again. Or is that just me?

Who is to say who is driving the wrong way down the motorway? What's more important is to understand the different viewpoints.

I salute your thoroughness. Do not ask your players what they think your AI is doing, because it will surprise and depress you. They will hate things it does not do, and praise things it also does not do. The clever stuff you actually put in - not mentioned. Just to manage expectations...

That said, in cases like this there may be nuances that can be appreciated when reading the judge's sentencing remarks (which I have not seen).

I have several fall backs before taking my clothes to the laundrette, including naturism and sleeping on the floor. My motivational space probably looks different to yours.
