Donald Trump is exhausting goodwill in Europe’s most pro-American country

The effects of Banco Master’s collapse reach beyond the banking sector. That is because the head of the bank spent years cultivating ties to Brazil’s elite

Dissent inside MAGA rarely travels far. On Venezuela, Donald Trump’s supporters once again appear less committed to a fixed doctrine than to backing whatever course their leader chooses econ.st/4qPwcGl

Zohran Mamdani went from notching 1% in primary polling to becoming the first candidate in more than 50 years to win over one million votes in a NYC mayoral election. Here's what to know about his meteoric rise.

NEW: Rockstar Games says the 30+ employees it fired last week were leaking confidential information, disputing allegations that the company is union-busting. The union says it was a private chat with labor organizers. This messy battle isn't over yet. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

China is changing the clean-energy game. If its solar panels, EVs and wind turbines are not gifts to the world in themselves, their ever-shrinking prices are an undoubted, and most welcome, boon

Relax after work. Ginger tea, fancy lever less controller, fancy IEM earphones. Silksong obviously. It relaxes a lot.

What's the point of hard games, anyway? youtu.be/Ip5pYl-MuYs

I wrote about Silksong www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

I’ve played about 20 hours of Silksong since it came out (with a few breaks for “sleeping” and “watching my kids”) and man it’s exactly what I wanted it to be. Just a brilliant, joyful experience that keeps surprising and delighting at every turn. I’m in the thick of Act 2 and thoroughly in love

Silksong is much harder than Hollow Knight (which was already pretty tough!). I wonder how many people will bounce off a certain boss in front of a door with bells

Inside the making of the new Final Fantasy Tactics remaster: - Why it took so long (it was first conceived in 2018!) - How Kazutoyo Maehiro went from grunt to director - Why they didn't nerf Orlandeau (and the funny original plan for his design) And much more: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

wait you're saying my boy cidolfus orlandeau (there are those who call him the God of Thunder) is still completely busted? day 1 purchase

No Haskell today, go play Silksong!

I was formally trained. In Uni we had to write down (a bit like pseudo code) what something was required to do functionally, then add code later. We were also taught to prove the code was functionally correct based on input and output. Most things weren't better in the old days, but some were...

Something I didn't mention in my story yesterday: one of the reasons that Team Cherry had such an enjoyable time making Silksong is that it's 2D. Nice and flat. Don't have to worry about 3D art pipelines. In other words, all video games should be 2D

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really. Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are. This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Here's one for all the game devs out there www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Oi! Pretendemos levar pra todos os consoles, assim como nosso jogo anteiror, o UNSIGHTED! Só nao podemos confirmar oficialmente ainda as plataformas, mas estamos indo atrás!

Notes on putting the new Gemini 2.5 Pro through its paces - I'm impressed: it did great on image recognition, audio transcription and returning bounding boxes for creatures in a complex photograph, plus it rendered a pretty solid SVG of a pelican on a bicycle! simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/25/...

Our brain stores parallel copies of memories to allow recollection to be both stable and adaptable. 🧪

This is an incredible map I stole from Amazing Maps on FB. Hurricanes/Cyclones don't cross the equator because of Coriolis. But why the asymmetry between the north and the south? Also, I can understand why the west side of S. America is calm (cool water), but the east is puzzling. #scicomm 🧪
