So uh, is anyone looking to hire a developer with an uncomfortable amount of knowledge about #atproto and #activitypub, experience building from scratch and running a social network (@ludumdare.com), hacking on GPU drivers/network protocols/the Linux kernel, plus a couple decades as a pro gamedev? 🤷

Sincere apologies, but we wont be doing Live Results for Ludum Dare 57. We discovered some suspicious rating data we will be purging, but @distraction.engineer needs a bit more time to dump it for later analysis. 🚓 Stay tuned. All results should drop as scheduled, but TBD ldjam.com/events/ludum...

Fun fact: 40% of Ludum Dare 57 users from the past 4 days connected to ldjam.com via IPv6!! 🤯 Of course that doesn't mean they don't have IPv4 addresses, or they don't have access to the internet via an IPv4 gateway, but IPv6 is the address that resolved first. Something to think about. #LDJam

GDC is cool, but it'd be neat if a queer gamedev conference in Canada got big too. Just saying'. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Neat feature: masking is required indoors. Does that make it a double safe space? 😷 bsky.app/profile/qgco...
