Might have vanished into a Clair Obscur shaped hole. Been a while since a game captured me like that. I'm so bad at the dodging. But the world is sublime. I'm gonna be so mad if I get distracted before I finish it.

Did you know that:
- Last year I made my very first #wow addon (after being a contrib on ATT for years)
- People are actually downloading it
- Townie, who holds the credit for the addon idea, also made us some beautiful icons this week
- You could be trying this out right now

When most of the raid group are absent, but you've got 9 people, so you just do a 9 person run of Liberation of Undermine 😅 On normal, of course.

Maybe a hot take but I actually prefer 10 man raid groups? Provided everyone knows what they're doing it's just way less overwhelming.

A disease registry? For autism? I'm sorry but 1) not a disease and 2) medical professionals already have this data.

Nope. Bad idea. Very bad idea. Absolutely fight this bullshit if you're in the US. Rest of the world: do not take an example!!!

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but
2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but
3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So
4. Now the LLM code points to malware.
LLMs hallucinating nonexistent software packages with plausible names leads to a new malware vulnerability: "slopsquatting."
LLMs can't stop making up software dependencies and sabotaging everything
: Hallucinated package names fuel 'slopsquatting'

This absolutely was silly and feel-good and did that thing what a great story does: it makes you forget one reality by experiencing another.
Factor Four magazine Issue 46 is live and includes my story, “Twelve Things that Will Occur Immediately Following Your Invention of Teleportation.” Just a silly little feel-good story about a teleporting cat to help break up the doom-scrolling. Enjoy! factorfourmag.com/twelve-thing...

Happy World Autism Day. I got my diagnosis last year, after doing the intake 6 years ago. Entirely on me, because while I showed signs in the initial tests, I severely lacked the knowledge to recognise myself in it. Now I'm up to date with the current understanding and how it works in women.

Since my feed is full of stupid ways to use AI, I'll add one from this week. Person used ChatGPT to ask how many cities have a well-being council. Then he asked the other popular ones. They all gave different answers and some were wrong. He used it as evidence it must be rare and we should be proud.

Hey so not only did they pirate ALL of my books, they even used a bunch of my short stories and novellas from before I was professionally published. Most of these are not online, and even I don't have copies of a couple of them.

What the actual....??

Whoever named the Earth Elementals on the Kaja Coast "Aspring Sand Castle", I would like you to know that I have to laugh every time I get that quest. May it never stop being funny to me.

Two minor and one major patch? Consider me impressed. I've never worked on projects with such segmented advanced planning. I'd be scared of leaking things in the wrong build 😱

Alright Bluesky squad. We can do better than this. Let's make it happen.

In this game, rather than petting the cat, you are the cat. Interested? I thought so. Go hit that wishlist button 😀

Beyond the original recipe 99pi episodes, Power Broker, & Con Law, in 2024 we also produced an incredible miniseries about the systems under strain due to climate change called Not Built for This. Hosted by Emmett FitzGerald, it's truly the best work we've done

It continues to amaze me how spending some time playing through a level of PowerWash simulator does not only clear away the virtual gunk in the game, but also the gunk that has accumulated in my brain. Sometimes to solve a problem you need to stop trying to solve the problem and do something else.
