New Cutest Engineering Train just dropped
it’s 2030. all franchises have released their “Worlds”, “Ultimate” and “Complete” games. AI models that have replaced game devs are unable to create anything new. the gaming industry dies.

First blog post of 2025. Embarrassing.

the will of the people.
Anyone can break up a showing of an enemy propaganda film by putting two or three dozen large moths in a paper bag. Take the bag to the movies with you, put it on the floor in an empty section of the theater as you go in and leave it open. The moths will fly out and climb into the projector beam, so that the film will be obscured by fluttering shadows.

Don’t do this, and don’t use a google voice number (which totally works) or other disposable mobile-style number or your email-for-spammers email address at this link:

"Book by book, Discworld expands and deepens, pulling in elements from our world that Pratchett tempers in surprising ways: Shakespeare, vampires, police procedurals, musicals, Australia, high finance. Then come even bigger ideas: war, revolution, justice.

"By the time we reach Book 29, “Night Watch,” Pratchett is writing comic fantasy the way Martin Luther offered theological critique to the Catholic Church: sharp and tough as nails, with a hammering moral force.

"Discworld is not about how to be good, but about how to do good, and why even the smallest acts of kindness matter. Empathy — like humor or creativity or hope — is a muscle. You don’t train for a marathon by running around the world: You start with small distances and work your way up."
