Spent my evening standing up a small Next.js app with Next Auth and Google sign in. I want to build a playlist editor for YouTube. Specifically the Watch Later playlist because it's a pain in the ass on the website and the app, and I could do it better

Guess what playlist you can't get from the API

Can't believe I'm doing this again but:

I don't believe the "using AI as a placeholder" excuse studios make. Placeholders are supposed to be bright and ugly so you remember to change it later.

"Placeholder AI" is being used so that if they don't remember to change it, it's "good enough" to ship.

I just spent two full work days trying to set up 5 separate projects locally, making them all talk to one another, so I could spend 20 minutes verifying a change

Early Access and the way they managed their community across all their updates helped humanize that team in ways that only helped Baldur’s Gate 3, weird for the studio to be so willing to throw all that goodwill away.
I think it's nice when concept art shows the evolution of people's creative processes instead of a prompt, but what do I know

people seem to like adios, they just wish there was more of it lol

well, funnily enough, there _is_ more of it. A lot more. I just, you know, need the cash to make those games.

I just reduced the amount of videos in my Watch Later playlist on YouTube from 173 to 10. I had a lot of random crap that was making that less useful. They should really have a bulk edit option for playlists. Not sure why they don't. Maybe I'll build something that can do that!

Oh so it's doing bad-bad by their metrics, huh?
Call of Duty: "We will no longer do back-to-back releases of Modern Warfare or Black Ops games. The reasons are many, but the main one is to ensure we provide an absolutely unique experience each and every year."

That much money financing games by actual game developers would have financed 150+ of the highest budget AAA games, and the several orders of magnitude more jobs to produce them. Instead it was burned failing to produce advertiser-safe Second Life.

Zuckerberg's attempt at making Second Life again could almost certainly have funded every indie game in the history of indie games combined.
