Mark Zuckerberg for The Wall Street Journal (via John Gruber): It is surprising that the discourse from many of those who are developing artificial intelligence is so filled with doom.

My partner pointed out to me today that my mental health has clearly been suffering since I got promoted back in January. Not because of the stress of the actual job, but because it's highlighted all sorts of other problems. I'm good at my job, I like the people and I'm paid (fairly) well. I genuinely feel guilty...
Last week I shared a look at an arcade-faithful version of Asteroids to demonstrate the totally new way of making games that I’ve been working on. It’s called Jinks and it’s a lightweight game-engine, interactive development environment, and a language of sorts. This post is a game design postmortem for BELTRUNNER,...

In particular, he’s been trying to get the Post Office to refuse to deliver ballots, but only in states that did not surrender their voting info to him, so he can purge/disenfranchise Democrats....
When a movie entitled The Samurai and the Prisoner arrives, it's fair to expect ample swordplay. Director Kiyoshi Kurosawa defies that expectation in a big way. Adapting a 2021 novel by Honobu Yonezawa, Kurosawa's 16th-century period piece offers more talk than action, much of it concerning intrigue inside a castle...
With no let up with work through July and the hot weather continuing I didn’t really have the time or inclination to head out onto the rivers again. However, a few days break down in Pembrokeshire me a chance to unwind and do a bit of species hunting in saltwater. Arrived late on Wednesday evening with the...
