I can’t think of any indie TTRPG designers I know who want to be put up on a pedestal, be turned into some sort of icon by the people who read and play their games. They’re just people, with normal human wants and needs.

If there’s anything specific they want, it’s for you to buy their games.

“For more than a decade, researchers have wondered whether artificial intelligence could help predict what incapacitated patients might want when doctors must make life-or-death decisions on their behalf.”

I grew up extremely rural in the foothills of the rocky mountains, I loved exploring the various abandoned farmhouses and scrapyards, makes me feel that consistently finding 'good loot' is antithetical to the feel of exploration. coolest things I ever found were a rusty machete and a mummified cat

donate to food banks and also USE FOOD BANKS. too many people don’t use services like this because they feel they aren’t poor *enough* or aren’t desperate *enough*. use them. and get that sorted out before it becomes dire.

Laura @tutusntinyhats.bsky.social · 3d

This feels like a good time to donate to both food banks - which can buy in bulk and stretch a dollar really far - and local mutual aid groups and community fridges, which are more accessible to many people.

Results from the trial have been released in a statement by the company uniQure. The data from the company HAS been shared with independent scientists for review to be published.

• www.globenewswire.com/news-release...

🧪🧵⬇️

KEY POINTS
• Researchers have achieved a "groundbreaking" milestone by slowing the progression of Huntington's disease for the first time with a new gene therapy.
•The treatment, named AMT-130, is delivered via brain surgery and is expected to last a patient's lifetime after a single dose.
•Early-stage clinical trials involving 29 patients showed that those receiving a high dose experienced 75 per cent less disease progression after 36 months.
•Experts from University College London (UCL), including Professor Ed Wild and Professor Sarah Tabrizi, hailed the findings as potentially "world-changing" and the most convincing evidence to date for a disease-modifying effect.
•The development offers hope for patients, with the potential to preserve daily function, extend working lives, and significantly slow the disease, which currently has no cure.
•For people living with Huntington's, an effective, onetime therapy that significantly slows the loss of muscle control and cognition around mid-life could preserve years of quality relationships and gainful employment that would normally be lost to the disease.
•The drug will not be available for everyone due to the highly complex surgery and the anticipated cost. There isn't an official price for the drug yet. Gene therapies are often pricey, but their long-term impact means that can still be affordable. In the UK, the NHS does pay for a £2.6m-per-patient gene therapy for haemophilia B.

"But when the team looked at the employees’ actual work output, they found that the developers had completed tasks 20% slower when using AI than when working without it. Researchers were stunned. “No one expected that outcome. We didn’t even really consider a slowdown as a possibility.”

Given that context, I find it rhetorically important to be vocally against AI.

I look forward to a day where public discourse might be about the ways in which these tools are useful and the ways they are not. But not when they are transparently being used as cudgels by your boss to pay you less.
