@pointfree.co Have you guys done any experimenting with local models yet?

Chess cube events at GenCon - Thurs, Fri, Sat at 8 pm. www.gencon.com/event-catalo...

Played @looneylabs.bsky.social latest, Seven Islands last night. It's a bit like Flux mashed-up with Carcassonne. 😍

Issue 753 of @iosdevweekly.com has a paywalled Substack post in its "and finally". I was hopeful when Dave retired it would stop being mostly about AI every issue, but I think enshitification is sadly encroaching. 😞

Chess Cubes! I'll be selling them eventually at chesscubes.com

This. 100% this and more.

This entire thread should be required reading. We need to stop this.

Vance on Jan. 8: "You have a federal law enforcement official engaging in federal law enforcement action. That's a federal issue. That guy's protected by absolute immunity." Vance today: "I didn't say that officers who engaged in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity. That's absurd."

Games are structured play! Come play some games (including my chess variants) at the Arcade today at #minnebar19! #minnebar

thinking about agnes denes' "wheatfield" today, turns out it's more complicated than I remember... like it took 4 months of constant labor to protect it from plant diseases... and the hay was donated to the NYPD news.artnet.com/art-world/ag...

Is there a way to follow a starter pack feed without following all its users? (I want to add it like I can a list.) 🤔

My latest board game design is a mashup of Go and Chess. It's a Chess variant AND a Go variant. I'm thinking about making 100 sets and putting them on Kickstarter. Any interest?

I haven't really been using this... but at least logging into blue sky today, my feed isn't empty! I only logged in to follow the "Eyeo Festival Speakers" feed. If anyone knows of an equivalent list on Mastodon, please LMK!

Looking forward to having some board games playable at #minnebar this Saturday. (At least two are games that also have iOS versions.)

I'm giving two talks on #visionOS development in the coming month or so. Both will cover my latest game release, Puzzle Prison for Apple Vision Pro: apps.apple.com/us/app/puzzl... MN VR & HCI: www.eventbrite.com/e/mn-vr-and-... TCiDev / MN Cocoaheads: www.meetup.com/twin-cities-...
