Kawai Shen Quote

Jacob Wren

. “Despite the suspension of norms in the mosh pit and the lifting of prohibitions on exercising aggression and violence, moshing was never a free-for-all. Like any social endeavour, there were unwritten rules of conduct. Entering a new millennium ushered in by forest fires, warmongering, and a...

Expanding the *recomp ecosystem with GBARecomp

Matthew Stanley

My long term goal is to plant the seed for all legacy systems to have static recompilers – in hopes to blossom various types of ports and extensibility.Gameboy Advance was always an obvious target, and with the recent news of the decompilation of The Minish Cap getting an early PC port, it felt...

v0.8.2 Another bug fixed

Simon Dalvai

Another day, another save game editor bug :-) This time a user reported, that the game crashes after the next match. By sending me his save game file, I was able to discover the bug very fast. Matches with deleted teams and leagues still existed and therefore the game crashed. This was only...

Bats

andrewspittle

An unexpected aspect of life in the countryside: bats. We've had a heatwave the last couple days, which has meant leaving the windows wide open at night. The property's bordered by a stream and forest land, prime habitat for bats. As I sat working in the living room this afternoon I saw what, at...

The Attention Merchants

Andrew

attention, books, culture, marketing Referenced by Michael when he was visiting us back in May and I picked it up. It happened to fit well with things I’ve already been thinking about such as The Algorithm and whether culture precedes from it or it precedes from culture. Basically, does the...

Deno Desktop

Ankur Sethi

From the Desktop apps section of the Deno documentation: deno desktop turns a Deno project (anything from a single TypeScript file to a Next.js app) into a self-contained desktop application. The output is a redistributable binary that bundles your code, the Deno runtime, and a web rendering...

finally finding focus

alieniloquy

Life has been a little hectic lately. I've been spending most of my time finding someone to take over my apartment, packing, and getting ready for my move back to the Boston area. I'm excited to start my new job, and even more excited to be around my family again. I think I shared a little bit...

5 Lessons at 50

Murat

Looking at my peak male physique, and my Keanu Reeves baby face, you would never suspect it, but I recently turned 50. As is the tradition, I thought about writing a post titled "50 Lessons at 50". Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of wisdom. The thing is, I still feel like I'm 18, same age as...

Extreme Heat and Oily Fascists

Rory

Record-breaking temperatures are expected in England and Wales today, and in France and Spain they’ve been even worse. Social media has noticed the uncanny similarity between a fictional weather forecast for August 2050 from French TV in 2014 and yesterday’s actual forecast, on a day when drowning...

Tequatl and Phrecia

Belghast

I am still playing a heck of a lot of Guild Wars 2. Last night I spent my evening doing sibling time with Ace, and I feel bad for how not into GW2 they are…. yet I continue to talk about it. I managed to catch Tequatl last night, which always makes me happy. This is, without a doubt, my...

You gotta deal with the boring part first

Arnon Shimoni

Since 2024 the role of the CMO or marketer in a startup has really changed. Mostly, everyone has the same tools so everyone is producing the same slop at the same time. I can no longer remember times that I’ve read content that looks and sounds exactly the same. They organize cool dinners...

Ten Years Ago

Nige

On this day ten years ago – the day the result of the Brexit referendum was announced – I was walking in Surrey, where I took this picture. This is what politicians used to look like (take note, Andy Burnham)...https://nigeness.blogspot.com/2016/06/picture-of-day.html

Farm Log #10

Andrew Spittle

We have a creek that runs down two sides of our property, which was a real selling point of the house. There are even two footbridges! I’ve loved being around water my whole life, yet I didn’t appreciate until we moved in how much the presence of that creek would make me aware of different...

Fading Faces

afarshadblog

When I arrived in Shanghai, I kinda knew that one of the things that I had to adapt to was people leaving the city or returning to their countries. Since all my close friends were international students, and obviously not all of them were intending to stay in China after graduation, knowing this...

Coming Soon: SoshVault

Matthew Haughey

I enjoy social media, and one thing I love seeing is when people play in the space and do things the tools weren't necessarily designed for. Back in good old days of Twitter (~2012-2014), people used to do things like change their display names to a "spooky" one for halloween or they'd add a Santa...

!@! Movies: The Client (1994)

andrei

A young boy who witnessed the suicide of a mafia lawyer hires an attorney to protect him when the District Attorney tries to use him to take down a mob family. Oh wow, this is probably the best movie based on a book by John Grisham I’ve seen so far. It’s really nicely made, and the performances...

descobrindo música nova nos tempos de streaming

20kparsecs

Chega a ser engraçado que mesmo com milhões de músicas disponíveis, os serviços de streaming não ajudam muito no processo de descobrir algo novo e interessante pra ouvir. Vez ou outra ele acerta e te indica um disco que você realmente vai gostar, mas isso é a exceção, a regra é sempre mostrar algo...

DTRPG Loot

Peter Fitz

I got these today, four AD&D adventure books, PoD items from DriveThruRPG, bought mostly on a whim.I must confess, I bought Halith Vorn and Zorth mainly because the illustration appealed to me, but they also had pretty good reviews on DTRPG. They took a bit longer to arrive than PoD stuff...

Shielded from the mind

alterick

I'm going through changes. One of the heaviest is that I couldn't make love work so I'm mourning the now finished relationship. I'm living in a new apartment and I enjoy being here. Some nights are long and full of terrors, mostly related to health issues I had to go through a year and a half ago....

Debugging in the age of agents

Akash Tandon

A junior engineer once asked me how I had pinpointed possible causes for a bug introduced by code changes I hadn’t worked on. I was surprised by this question at first and didn’t immediately have a great answer. The best I could come up with was that this ability was developed with practice,...

Embedding Python in Elixir with Pythonx

Allan MacGregor

The Elixir ecosystem has a machine learning problem, and it's one of breadth rather than capability. Nx, Axon, and Bumblebee have proven Elixir can do serious numerical computing; the libraries are what's missing. Python has decades of battle-tested libraries, pre-trained models, and institutional...

Why LLMs Will Not Have Your Next Big Idea

Albert Sikkema

Photo by Phill Brown on Unsplash I have been using LLMs daily for years now, mostly to code, but also for research, writing, and analysis. They are genuinely useful, sometimes spectacularly so. I have built tools, workflows, and entire coding pipelines around them. So this is not a “LLMs are...
