Now I heard there was a tiny box
Engraved with names like Minecraft Notch
And Brian Fargo and FourZeroTwo, yeah
But though it promised games for free
And mobile ports on your TV

There's gotta be a way to hold a baby such that your hands never touch the river Styx and it also allows you to tech it so that every part of the baby is submerged at least once for maximum invulnerability.

"The mainstream understanding of AI is as an interefering piece of shit which doesn't work" pt II

www.askamanager.org/2025/11/the-...

10. The baby announcement

At the end of a meeting, a colleague asked their boss to stay on the line for a couple of minutes. The colleague then confidentially shared the great news that they were expecting a baby, and they and their boss talked about a few next steps to plan for parental leave. The AI notetaker then sent out notes to everyone who had attended the meeting with the headline, “Colleague Is Having a Baby.”

19. The equipment

I recently saw a ~$50,000 piece of industrial equipment damaged and taken out of commission for about a month because Google AI search told a worker that the tightening torque of a screw was 50 ft*lb instead of 50 in*lb.

This resulted in them over-tightening the screw by a factor of 12, which unfortunately didn’t strip the threaded hole (which would have been a smaller problem) but instead warped a bearing assembly that required a full rebuild at considerable difficulty and expense.

The kicker is that the correct torque value was clearly printed in the service manual that is stored in the machine.

1. The fake initiative

Our execs usually send out a hype email right before the annual employee morale survey, emphasizing wins from the past year, basically trying to put people in a positive frame of mind.

Last year’s included the announcement of a major new program we knew employees really wanted. But it was a bit surprising, because it fell in an area my team was responsible for, and we were out of the loop, despite advocating strenuously for this over the years. So I went to the exec to a) convey enthusiasm for his newfound dedication to launching this program and b) ask what support he needed from my team/get us involved again. It turned out the program wasn’t launching at all; he had just asked AI to edit the email to make it sound more exciting and appealing, and it had done so by … launching my initiative.

16. The scam

We work with a lot of small businesses just starting up, and as a result are asked to recommend professional services often. Knowing this, a client passed on a discreet warning about the bookkeeping firm we’d recommended to them. They had issues with their accounting software, Quickbooks, and called for help. It was right when Google started providing AI summaries for everything, and apparently their account rep pulled the phone number for Quickbooks’ support out of the AI summary, rather than off the website.

You can probably guess where this is going. The number wasn’t legit, but instead put him in contact with a scammer who’d managed astroturf their way into the AI summary. The account rep gave the scammer full access to our client’s accounting software before he realized his error. Our client didn’t share a lot of details about the damages — I got the sense that they were saying very little because they were planning legal action — but they wanted to let us know so we wouldn’t recommend them again.

RIP. He was also a huge influence on early shojo and shonen ai manga, including Ryoko Ikeda, who modeled Oscar in Rose of Versailles after him

Swedish actor Björn Andréson (Death in Venice, Midsommar) has passed away. Though not specifically tied to gaming, he was an incredibly popular model for several decades worth of games and anime in Japan! Indeed inspiring Alucard, Griffith, and SMT Louis Cypher and many more. RIP.

Columbo in:

a pixel art scene of Columbo doddering around rendered in a style reminiscent of LucasArts' Point and Click adventure games. Columbo is looking at a dog resting on the ground, with the inspect dialogue: "You're a real friendly boy aren't you? Oh, you're a girl." In his inventory is a cigar, an egg, some sunflower seeds and some dog treats.
