I'm just one person, and my programming needs are somewhat unusual (building various kinds of statistical forecasting models). But I'm just not seeing the consistent productivity gains from LLMs that I would have expected if you'd asked me 6 months ago.

On the bright side for James Franklin, he will never be the most embattled Penn State coach in school history.

Using the cast in Hades 1 felt similar for a lot of builds (outside of the turret build), it was just too much cognitive load to remember to use it, especial since it’s down on the list after attacking and dashing. I moved it to shoulder button and used it a little more, but it was never crucial.

It’s probably my stopping point. can’t do these games anymore where you have to level up the specific card to make it better than the opponent

Danny Page @danny.page · 8h

I think Zohran is great and inspiring and much needed right now, but all he's doing is like the job as it's supposed to be. Starts with a set of principles and advocates for them. It's like how everyone goes crazy for Chotiner for just doing the job. Not an indictment on either of them but the rest.

They need those points because Italy is about to do the same thing in a few days, though I could absolutely see that game becoming a closed doors match.

but both of them shutting the door on their small hopes of making it is great stuff

I’d love to have a steamdeck, but I’m still having 3 AM wakeups for the kiddos and the phone is only way through it 😭

Hearthstone is in a real rough space right now, so it scratches the itch. and fortunately my old Destroy deck was mostly good, and was able to add some of the newer cards to help

I’m curious how it will feel when it gets to higher level arenas. but it’s gonna be hard to pull me away from Marvel Snap

Clash Royale is the closest version of “Tower Offense” game you could get, and it was fast paced and hectic. 3 minute rounds disappeared so fast. having to wait for waves seems like something that shouldn’t exist here. or let me gamble and call in a new one

Hmm. I don’t know. Similar to Warcraft Rumble, it really seems like this game should have come out 10 years ago?

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.
