1/2. He took the greatest military force in history, lost a war to a middle power in a week, begged the world to save him, & demanded the media lie about this & everything else. I try, but at a simple human level I do not see how anyone mistakes this man’s almost supernatural weakness for strength.

Andy Kim: "We have a campaign finance system that has been built for corruption, working exactly how it is supposed to, marginalizing the American People and working families, and lifting up the power of billionaires and corporations, so they can buy the candidates they want."

A really lovely anecdote about @tovanbo.bsky.social from @markschramm.bsky.social in the middle of our discussion as I’m thinking about @devinreimer.bsky.social and Stellar Cafe. You can make a developer’s day by leaving a review expressing how their worked affected you.

Wincing here for multiple reasons. 1.) 120 might still make nDreams the largest VR game developer and publisher in the world. 2.) That’s still probably 5x or more the studio size that even the highest selling VR games could support right now. Many VR teams are still less than 5.
