I think a lot of "learn to code" people thought high salaries for programmers were a permanent feature of the world rather than the result of unusual circumstances around supply and demand in the labor market. Over last 20 years, CS went from a niche college major to the most popular major in the US
New CS grads are making less than I made as an accounting graduate straight out of college a decade ago, and I don’t mean inflation adjusted, I mean nominally.

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI.

I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

By the way, if you're wondering why JP publisher can go so over the top with EN manga censorship like this: First, it's Apple. Apple doesn't allow "porn" on its store, and is a big fucking nanny about it. Second, it's payment processors. We know how they love to label JP content "porn".
man K MANGA sucks, lmao.

I've complained, and will continue to complain, about the Blue Period release editing out artwork for legal issues but this week they put out a chapter of Rent-a-Girlfriend that is more censor than not

they charge real money for this!!

When writing this piece, I kept thinking back to this Instagram post I saw from a trans woman the other day. This is what I'm talking about. Watch this:

played some more majsoul lately and saw they added a bot that tells you how optimal your plays were. the relationship between its grades and the placements whenever i'm at the table have been incredibly funny to me.

The incredibly rare topic of anime came up when I was talking with my mom the other day, and it turned out my sister got so into a recent show that she made my mom watch it with her.

I haven't seen it myself so I can't say, but if I had to show my mom one show, it probably wouldn't be Dandadan.

I've said it about Japanese games and it's just as true everywhere else: you can never, ever count on localizations to represent the breadth and depth of Japanese media and what comprises the canon as it's natively understood. Curation and commercial interests will always narrow and skew your view.

saw someone post metroid prime review scores and i'm just surprised there are still 60+ gaming websites that haven't laid off their entire staff

my eye doctor appointment got moved up, so i finally got someone to realize that my eyes are blatantly misaligned in a way that glasses are absolutely capable of fixing! To get a new prescription, I just need...another appointment with a second eye doctor...in late January.........

The death of Flash basically killing an entire segment of independent and free game development overnight is one of those things that never really gets spoken about, which is a real shame because a lot of that first generation of Newgrounds talent did break into the animation and games industries.
I genuinely think kids in the mid-to-late aughts growing up on emulators (read: piracy) may genuinely have been far, far healthier for the future of the industry than all the kids growing up on stuff like Roblox being the norm.
THIS SHIT'S GOTTA BE RUINING KIDS EXPERIENCES WITH GAMING FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

Update on my current state of mind: A post on twitter thought Slowpoke’s line from the recent Pokemon Pokopia trailer sounded like something a trendy schoolgirl would say, couldn’t get the idea of Gal Slowpoke out of their head, and so drew a design that has since gone viral.

I’m very normal.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to
