I will never put an arachnophobia filter in anything I make. If I put a spider in there that spider is crucial to the work. The text doesn't cohere without spider.

By implementing a hedged read strategy taking advantage of (undocumented!) channel scrambling offsets, I've gotten as much as 15x reductions in tail latency. Works across Intel, AMD, Graviton, DDR4, DDR5, x86, ARM, you name it. Check out the C++ lib I wrote, watch the video, and try it yourself!

I used to post as a child but found posts to be too simple to be useful in real life: a mere single text box, no fog of war, no technology tree, no random map or spawn position, only 2 players, both sides exact same posts etc. My new Posts 2 address these limitations.

Several years ago, on a whim, I started drawing a map of an eel's life travels as seen by the eel. I figured an eel thinks about its life as a linear journey, rather than a there-and-back again adventure. So I wanted to do a map to reflect this. This morning, on another whim, I finished the map!

A lot of people talking about a new Star Fox game today and honestly it's probably worth remembering that a boy is currently floating away in a balloon

For Woke Week, I make the case for Clive Barker's Nightbreed - a lurid, pulp masterpiece butchered on its release. It knows who its enemies are - the cops, the state, and a straight society that seek to control and manipulate people for being different. Also it's sick. aftermath.site/nightbreed-m...

Bluesky's metrics are doing well to serve me pictures of miniatures because I like miniatures, but they keep fucking up and showing Battletech robots. Wretched things. They all look like a bunch of VCRs piled up beneath a child's motocross helmet

Reading amazon supplement reviews doesn't make you a doctor. Reading article headlines is not the same as skimming the great works of literature. Grow up beyond these arguments. Watch Koyaanisqatsi and practice Field Manual 3 25.150 Combatives. They're gonna be knocking on the doors soon.

Advertising their games in the E3 1998 Show Daily newspaper, Westwood Studios (Command & Conquer, Lands Of Lore) go for 'shamelessly addictive' as their tagline. (Direct, if nothing else!)

Still very fond of this doomguy pic I did a few years ago. It's using the actual Doom palette, too
