hello friends

hey I know that guy

This is one of the best games of all time. While out on a walk – after playing for a few hours – the pieces for how it was going to end suddenly clicked together in my mind. It felt like getting hit by a 2x4 (complimentary).

blizzard check – how's everyone doing?

This is wild: www.youtube.com/watch?v=qht6... If you've got limited time, the section on textures is particularly cool: it's a friendly GUI that emits a bytecode DSL for image operations! Most demos lean hard into Procedural All The Things!, so it's neat to see tools for hand-authoring assets.

🚨 FRENCH TOAST ALERT AT 4 SLICES 🚨 ❄️ THIS IS NOT A DRILL ❄️

it has been [0] days since I've tried to emulate 64-bit atomic operations using 32-bit atomic ops in a system with relaxed memory ordering

If you'll allow me a little essay-posting on this Tuesday morning— Lots of people are saying that Peter Watts predicted our present situation, but I'd argue that R. Scott Bakker is the unsung prophet of the modern day.

this would have dramatically improved Crit Day in grad school

"chequebook" please, tell me more about your opinions on American politics

webGPU support shipped in Firefox and none of you told me?? hell yeah welcome to the future

at long last, Elon Musk has announced plans to build Ra from @qntm.org's story "Why Building Ra Would Be A Bad Idea"

Fall; or, Dodge in Hell (Stephenson, 2019)

me objecting to the ending of Hadestown, which literally opens with the narrator declaring It's a sad song! It's a sad tale! It's a tragedy!

who's gonna make the Epstein-Erdős–Bacon number calculator?

can't wait to run this `npm install` command on the same computer where I keep all of my crypto wallets and AWS keys

this is a sick writeup + set of interactive demos, amazing work

new discourse just dropped, everyone get your opinions ready

renaming clawdbot to moltbot instead of "whispering earring" was a big miss

chatgpt is gaslighting me here, right? there's no way that a function declared with 'extern "sysv64"' must *also* obey the Windows calling convention for which registers are volatile – that would make it useless for writing cross-platform assembly! chatgpt.com/share/6978d4...

time for another Normal Day on github dot com
