Same for pre-prod text. You put lorem ipsum in there or [PLACEHOLDER] so you can string-search "lorem ipsum" or "placeholder" and you don't accidentally ship with it. Any actual text that goes in the game should be stuff you expect the player to see or -at least be okay with it- if it goes gold.
Keep hearing devs say that they only use ai for "pre-concept art"
There is no pre-concept art. There is concept art. That's where the idea starts. With the concept.

Agreed. It's especially sad when there is so much great and well-cared for third party software for macOS, while the OS itself seems to be less and less cared for by Apple.

I figured it out! Simply remove *every* value tag entry for every keyboard shortcut and InDesign will generate new working ones!
I might be scheming up something quite bonkers.

I fucking dread the Discord arguments that are going to happen when someone reads an AI summary of a discord discussion and comes out swinging based on how the AI summarized it instead of what people said.

Finished watching Heated Rivalry last night. It was a very good cleanse from... everything.
I successfully kept myself away from spoilers and discourse before finishing it too. :D

The huge huge tell in the original post was right up front: the claim that they had just given notice and didn't care about being sued.
That didn't lend any credence to their claims, but would have made it much easier for the company in question to identify them.

So many leftists shared this very obvious AI slop all over the internet because it confirmed their existing beliefs. Bring back media literacy!!!
That viral Reddit post about food delivery apps was an AI scam
AI slop comes for Reddit.

a billion years ago, when working at a company that made anime and superhero games, someone submitted a portfolio that was just pictures of puppies.

The "I just gave my two weeks notice" thing was such a fucking tell! That's a hugely identifiable piece of information.

I'm now officially contracted to deliver even more writing work in 2026 than I did last year, which means - if I want to have any hope of ending the year with a functional spine - it's time for me to invest in a decent ergonomic chair.
Anyone have suggestions for favourite brands/models?

This advice is great.
If you want art directors to check out your work, make it easy to find and easy for the AD to share it with other people.

I’ve been to a lot of great @f1rstwrestling.bsky.social shows at First Ave, but I genuinely think Wremix night 1 might have been the best top to bottom show I’ve seen them put on. Everyone stepped way the hell up.
