Speaking as someone who lives in a place where the battles with City Council rage on all the time, City Council can really put a hamper on a progressive mayor's plans. Don't let them get away with it.

The hearing is at the heart of Silicone Valley for a reason. It's meant to damper support and make for an uneven playing field.

Let's show them we're ready to meet them wherever, whenever in support for creatives rights and livelihoods!

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

I had the opportunity to lead the programming effort on this the last few months and porting it over to Unity!

Been a pleasure working with @sweetleaves.art and I'm sure he enjoyed me making him read API docs and scripting 😂

A Baptist lady named Ada ran a convalesce out of the house next to my grandparents, taking in poor, sick people who went to her church. She also helped raise my mom and her 15 siblings. Her recipes are always made to have some to give away. This is an ancient, very humble coffee cake.

I didn't jump on this because I didn't want to argue with people, but... yes — Google's AI is not reading your email anymore than they _always_ are. But if you're worried about your privacy with Google? *Don't use their email*! They have literally always been gathering data on you.
Turns out this was all much ado about nothing and Google isn’t using your Gmail to train AI and if wanna turn all that stuff back on you can get your spam filters back
Looks like the article has been updated to suggest maybe they misread the policy.

I see people complaining that this also disabled their spam filters, though I still see new messages showing up in spam so it's still working fine for me after disabling things.

also adding to say for my under 18s. IF AN ADULT shows positive interest in you as a FRIEND and tells you things about their life/involves themselves in yours.

Also get out of there.

Predators in animation have utilized fan's interests to access and groom victims since forever

👏BOUNDRIES R GOOD👏
Hey.

Kindly reminder.

Content creators are not your friends just because you like their work. You do not know who we are.

This goes double for anyone under 18; be very careful about interacting with adults.

If any adult makes you feel uncomfortable, DO NOT ENGAGE THEM. RUN.

The amount of people I know who have been laid off from games industry jobs and are deciding to leave games entirely as a result is not only extremely saddening (of course), but also genuinely scary. We have lost legitimately thousands of years of knowledge and experience in the last four years.

I haven't had enough time to process this yet but,

I've studied the anti-vax movement for 7 years of my career and I can't believe I'm now at the point where I can't recommend the CDC as a trustworthy source of health information.

This is dangerous, insane, and embarrassing.

For the first time in my career, I can’t tell people to trust what the CDC website says. And that is an incredibly sad and devastating place for this country to be.
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”
