@mischiefcomedy.bsky.social I showed my 6yr old some of your YouTube videos months ago and he thought they were the funniest thing ever. Today out of nowhere he decided to put on his own version of The Play That Goes Wrong in our living room and it's the cutest silliest thing ever.

Musk would do this through those f*cking Trump Accounts they opened in every child's name without parental consent. I HATE these SO much. Parents cannot close the accounts. Parents cannot reject donations to the accounts. And we must hold on to donations for at least 5 years. I'm a state lawmaker.

A four storey building that I would turn into a combination book store, video game store, board game store, and arcade. The arcade would have 90's prices and the store areas would each have places to chill and try things out. And if people want to just read without buying, I'm ok with that too.
question for the audience: if you were ultra rich (let’s say $25M), what completely frivolous thing are you buying?

My position as a reader remains unchanged. I wont purchase books made by the slop machine. I only want human authored tales. Please feel free to let me know which publisher/organizations are already using the tech so that I may avoid their catalogues.
Our position on generative AI remains unchanged. But an increasing number of organisations within the publishing industry are using the technology. In her blog post our CEO sets out why we want to see the adoption of cross-industry standards. buff.ly/DCPZPY2

I freaking love Offbeat! This game is amazing and wonderful and magical! Go buy it! At full price because the devs deserve it for this wonderful gem of a game. store.steampowered.com/app/4468030/...
@pantaloon.io even if you stopped development right now I'd be super happy but please don't stop because you rock in the best sense of the word.

New Blog: Programming Isn't Special Artists understand that AI is bad for art. Why don’t programmers understand that we are artists? https://blog.glyph.im/2026/10/programming-isnt-special.html
I found this comic years ago when I lived in Korea and it was super helpful. Also he's not joking about the 15 minutes thing. It really is that easy. Learning to speak the language is much harder... I still have trouble pronouncing my wife's name correctly...
Happy Hangul Day! It's a Korean holiday honoring the best and easiest alphabet in the world! Everyone in Korea gets the day off work to contemplate it, but it only takes fifteen minutes to learn! So today, learn to read Korean in 15 minutes!

holy shit, this is the whole ballgame in a single paragraph gAI systems require mass theft of copyrighted works, for the explicit purpose of replacing the market for the people they stole from, and the people in charge knew what they were doing ahead of time, and did it anyway
Eye popping. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft. Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1

I was telling my wife about this article: hermit-tech.com/blog/ai-mani... She basically summed it up with this: "Oh so it's like The Emperor's New Clothes!" And I think she's right.

Here's the comic Hyun Sook and I made for @perthcomicsfest.bsky.social's Tale Town anthology, edited by Elizabeth Marruffo. It was printed the size of a whole newspaper page!

Don’t use Copilot, because a malicious worm can propagate (and alter text) in documents and emails that you share with it. Don’t use AI, basically. Ever. The End.
Word worm crawls into Copilot, spreads chaos Researcher says months of coordination with Microsoft have yet to produce a robust mitigation www.theregister.com/security/202...
Excellent breakdown and summary.
Blue Bottle Games, as a policy, does not use generative AI. It's something we've discussed as a team, weighing the pros and cons, and ultimately, we decided it was not for us. Recently, while chatting with a colleague, she mentioned it was useful hearing our reasoning. So: Sharing time! 1/12
