way too many people i talk to about starting a small business are scared of managing financials bc they tell me they are "bad at math." i need people to understand that using financial software has nothing to do with being good or bad at math. it has to do with how patient you are with bad software

Reminder that the President of the United States shares important government announcements primarily via a commercial social media network that he owns, and there's so much going on that this has never even been treated as a scandal.

When I see stuff like this, I'm always reminded of one of the OG proofs of climate change. The sad end to this chart is going to be only a handful of human managed trees. The viability of these trees that have existed in Kyoto for centuries is tied to a number of climate driven things.

This game seriously "has the sauce" or whatever they're saying these days... it's *really* good! Especially notable is: it's doing its own thing! It has an entirely novel set of movement mechanics!! Which are super-interesting!!! (And also the whole open-world setting is such a fun/great fit.)

man, who ever could have foreseen that a studio releasing an NFT shooter--one criticised by fans as being structured in a way to be profitable for the developers, not the player marketplace--would ever run into financial trouble.

Reinforcing my pet theories: 1) all reactionaries/authoritarians are basically the same; 2) misogyny is the molten core of every reactionary/fascist movement; 3) persecution of LGBTQ is downstream of the misogyny; 4) so are all the other bigotries (this is more tendentious I concede).

Note: I would be gifting this game to everyone possible if I thought that would help, but sadly (AFAIK) Steam doesn't consider gifted copies a valid source of reviews (dunno about other aspects of the algo, eg do gifted copies count wrt sales numbers?). So: just buy this game. It's very special! <3

This two week period also brings us into the time period that analysts have pinpointed as being when the first signs of the Hormuz closure would be felt in shipping disruption to the west. The way I choose to read that is another 2 wks of hope & hype to keep money from fleeing until the last second

this is something which, plainly, AI cannot do. journalism is by definition out-of-distribution, and even if you presumed that everyone wanted to read more Claudeprose than people already do, "writing up one's findings" is not the primary job a journalist performs!

Leaning in to becoming the world's last petrostate at a time when countries like China are putting terrawatts of solar and wind energy on the grid (and cornering the global renewable energy tech market) is exactly the kind of backwards, banana-republic thinking that leaves you behind the curve
