I’ve had to stop watching/reading a load of programming stuff because numerous times I’ve found out the creator was just horrifically racist, sexist, misogynistic, homophobic or transphobic. It got too tiring having to investigate every author (not that it was difficult, they’re usually VERY open about being bigots).
Very quickly but likely quite painful
What if we just take Canada and move it over a little?
Used to work at Rebellion on their IT team. Genuinely a fantastic place to work and the owners seemed to always be super chill. Had a full suit of armour in one of their offices and so many weapons lying around (likely blunt replicas but still really cool).
I wasn’t on the game dev team so can’t speak for them but I was personally never pushed to work harder and often explicitly told to take breaks.
We also used to have large Unreal Tournament matches at lunch.
Huh, two to my favourite bands as well
I have some amazing news in that case!
I was so sure this was made out of cheese at first and was very confused but impressed.
Never heard of Transmetropolitan but this looks amazing!
I just joined a Discord server of mostly AuDHD people. Much easier.
I don’t think I’ve ever thought of chicken that way… Questioning if I even understand it at all 😂
But yes, you’re right, the whole thing requires everyone to contribute equally for it all to work properly but, since everyone can momentarily benefit more by not, and politics is painfully shortsighted, they won’t do the right thing.
Isn’t it less of a game of a chicken and closer to a global Prisoners Dilemma? The best option for everyone is for everyone to do the thing, the best option for individuals is to not do the thing but the worst thing for everyone is to not do the thing?
I love how part of their reasoning is to somehow help with our dependence on the whims of the international oil and gas markets, as if this in any way addresses that. Unlike, you know, £22bn worth of wind, solar, tidal or nuclear energy might?
Thank you for the reminder to delete my Udemy account!
Gen-AI has 0 place being used in a learning setting, especially one people are explicitly paying for themselves. Sure, let’s all learn from the Bullshit Machine.
They have built their own index with Ecosia and are working towards fully using that but currently I believe they use a mix.
Making your own index is difficult and expensive. They’re doing the work and I think we should support them in that.
