Luggage lost, luggage retrieved, now on my way to #devcom #ddc2025. Give me a ping if you're around!

Sleepers, we've been reading your feedback following the AMA on endgame and PvP. We will share a message from our Creative Director tomorrow to clarify our intentions and our vision. If you're interested in the topic, stay tuned, we have news that we think you'll like!

Software is always just a means to an end. Software isn't worth anything if it doesn't solve an actual problem. Know your users. Know your product. And then build something that really matters.

The Dune: Awakening launch sure is a wild ride but it's all worth it 💛

Oh hey, #PitchYaGame So this is a game about staring down thousands of rats in shining armor—but you're just a little bird with stolen swords you can barely use. Dynasty Warriors x DMC, with some EDF thrown in for spice. Not announced yet, but if you wanna hear first: glassbottommeg.myflodesk.com

If you outsource the core of your business you become an investor. Do you wanna be an investor? Do you have the means to?

Had Dune: Awakening launch sushi. Life is good 🍣

Dune: Awakening Day Switch 2 Day Thursday

Lots of universal truth in here: - The simplest tool that can do the job is the best tool for the job - Bad craftsmen blame their tools

I've been working on this on the Nitrado side. Fun times!

On vibe coding:

Working on SSH host certificates via Hashicorp Vault, authenticated through SPIRE/SPIFFE workload attestation. This is definitely the large scale automation setup I need for my [checks notes] three Raspberry Pis.

If you're being considered a "10x engineer" that simply means you've failed at elevating your peers above even 10% of your own efficiency. You might think of yourself as a "rock star" or whatever but you sure as hell aren't a senior engineer.

guy operating lifeboat on the titanic: this is actually only meant for people who know what all the flags in the Linux command "netstat -tulpen" do me, climbing out of the lifeboat and back onto the deck: okay guy, lowering the lifeboat: aren't you using that several times a day? me: look buddy,

Here's a fun observation: The actual challenge in writing is similar to software development. It's about developing a mental model, an *intent*, and that often has to simmer for a bit. Jotting down the words, or the code, is trivial in comparison. An AI can't develop your mental model for you.

My credo when mentoring engineers is "good software is the software that fulfills the requirements" and it takes most software engineers *years* to truly embrace what that means.

Today is jackhammer day.

🚨 SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨 HEY! WE JUST DROPPED OUR DEMO FOR ROGUE ECLIPSE, GO PLAY IT NOW ON STEAM! GOGOGOGOOOOOOOOooooo- Reposts appreciated! 😅🙏 bit.ly/4bRLumD

I think I'm gonna rewatch the last episode of Andor S2 today and then Rogue One. And then Episode IV.

I thoroughly love the costume design in Andor. They highlight that fashion is a result of societal and cultural norms and, objectively, does not make sense. This here is as nonsensical as any real world tie.

My house plants inspire me. If they can persevere under the most dire of circumstances, so can I.

In coding news, I've been using IntelliJ's "Full line code completion" plug-in for some prototypes and HOLY FUCK does it make me fast. I am extremely skeptical of AI code assistance but this actually works for me - and it runs on the local machine. www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/fu...

Of course I'll cut you some Slack. That's 9$ a month we can spend on something else.

Is this what an aneurysm feels like?

Apparently I have an "invalid handle"...???

I admit: I regularly pipe a cat into grep.

*Really* good article.

My daughter just sent me this meme about induction stoves and proof by induction. My work is done.

I probably have no idea what I'm doing here but I'm doing it anyway. Don't let anyone stop you from doing new things.

You know that movie trope, where a semi paranoid character is hunting a mystery, sees a piece of information, their eyes widen, they start frantically flipping through a (note)book, stop on a page, and suddenly everything makes sense? That's me in late game Blue Prince.

Hi, I am BlueSky User. My talents are: - Misunderstanding jokes - Dragging the day's main character until they stop moving

The ratio on this post is a work of art.

FFS start calling it bribery already.

If this had been in a movie or TV show about 5 years ago I would've called it out as heavy handed writing.

@himirri.bsky.social Hi Mirri!

Can't decide what to think about: The Pope apparently being critical of the Trump administration or Us knowing that from his TWEETS

Just sitting here waiting for the orange man to take Pope credit.

Dope Pope or Nope Pope?

That’s the beauty of open source, there’s always someone out there, ready and willing to contribute to your project, who is wrong.

"No no no, you see, it's the WORLD that's gone woke, my values have remained the same"

The games industry is dead?! AGAIN??!!

In retaliation, New Zealand has announced to halt all exports of establishing shots.

Quite interesting to regularly see heated discussions of Linux vs. other operating systems these days. That said, I just read a take that made me want to immediately lie down, so good night.

5 pencils. This has to be this "abundance" they kept talking about.

So a fun thing that seems to baffle some Americans (including Rubio): This is not a policy decision. It can't be reversed. It's an objective assessment based on our laws and the observed facts. (which, by the way, is how the executive and judiciary should ALWAYS work)

I love how western democracies, when they were established, looked at the US and said "yeah, we won't do it like that.." and the same thing is now happening with right wing populism (hopefully)

The German Office for the Protection of the Constitution ("Verfassungsschutz") has now officially declared the whole AfD as "confirmed right-wing extremist". Let's fuck 'em up.
