Reuters got some of the IPO docs. Anthropic is a total dog of a company. Spent $12.6bn to make $4.6bn in revenue in 2025, $7.33bn of which was compute costs. Operating loss of $8bn. Losses getting worse year over year. Amazing stuff www.reuters.com/business/fin...
From last night's Drink & Draw, hosted by @goshcomics.bsky.social and @brokenfrontier.bsky.social. It was a blast to be back in person after so many years. #GoshBFDD
Help! Parton Community Council has 60 days to raise £70k to buy Parton Kirk (resting place of James Clerk Maxwell). They plan to turn it into a visitor centre celebrating our great hero! The other buyers could turn it into long-term storage 😬 Even £5 would help 🙏🧪⚛️ www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding...

Astronomer Royal for Scotland | Catherine Heymans@astroroyalscot.bsky.social · 12mo agoWent on a little pilgrimage today to Parton, the resting place of 🏴Scotland’s very own Einstein, James Clerk Maxwell. Quite the pause when I realised he was only one year older than me (48) when he died. ⚛️🔭

It's officially autumn so time to announce: @nnesk.bsky.social and I are debuting #STARDATE at Thought Bubble festival! It's a 20-page comic book that's best described as Dating Reality TV On A Spaceship. Cheeky lil' preview coming soon!
Cover I did for my webcomic Onti (which would have been the Volume 2 cover)
I wrote an essay about why I'm done using AI for coding, even if it costs me my job and career: brettcodes.com/im-done-usin... The basic gist is: AI made me a worse, apathetic programmer. I think it's bad for humanity, the planet, and the craft of software engineering. And I'm done using it.
I'm done using AI
Why I'm stopping using AI for coding (and anything else) after using it earnestly for a year and coming to understand the harms it causes on personal, societal, and environmental levels.

We played The Incident at Galley House over the weekend and it was EXCELLENT. A fantastic specimen of this type of mystery/deduction puzzle games with great production value on all fronts. 🧵 because I wanna ramble about it a bit but you should really just go play it.

Not every story is about saving the world. Sometimes, it is about making it through an ordinary day. My good friend and @dwarves.bsky.social co-host Uri just launched his new slice of life, single-session, collaborative game (edited by me), and it's super charming. rpg-trader.com/products/766...

That’s a Mixam founder boasting about their new AI business 😬 Mixam has been a quality lottery for some time and I’ve been telling people to avoid them for a while. Another reason to be glad I’ve ditched them
This was such a great event, we're definitely going back - wholly recommended to anyone who appreciates art, of any kind. Also Granary Square and the Coal Drops Yard are always such a treat!

Slay the Spire 2 Mega Crit. No disclosure, "our programmers use AI for code reviews." Yano admits to using it as a thesaurus too. -y Misleading titled article: www.gamespot.com/articles/sla...
![Following these discussions, I asked Yano if Mega Crit has a firm policy set in place against generative AI, as well as if the team uses AI in any other capacity. Yano explained that while he is against generative AI, he understands the usefulness of AI in other areas of game development and isn’t firmly anti-AI. That said, he suspects that most of the developers on the team don’t use it that often.
“Some of our programmers use AI for code reviews–it’s like a glorified spell checker. I sometimes use it as a slightly more involved thesaurus. But we don’t use generative AI,” Yano reiterated. “I think there’s a very different mentality, right? [When] you write code, you’re just trying to write code in the best way you can to achieve the objective that you want. There’s an end goal that’s definable. Art is not like that. It’s an expression.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bfmlb2jbmqbki3tyupxenxhj/bafkreibat3yornfwovzzj5zbqasxlpqigk6gfx3wl6dfcc7wtrctlgn2t4)

The world wants me to die. My incurable disease diagnosis became global news. It was omnipresent on social media and 1,900 articles were written in a matter of days. Many were saddened. However, joy dominated the commentary.
[so many words later...]
I deserved it because I challenged death. The crowd was running a deeply rooted psychological script that represents the oldest, most deeply embedded stories of human culture. This was the first story ever written down, 4,000 years ago. Gilgamesh sought eternal life after losing someone he loved, only to have the plant of youth stolen by a serpent as he bathed. Leaving him to accept his mortality.
[even more words later.]
For if death is inevitable, their existence and that of their loved ones is justified and unavoidable. If death is not inevitable, nothing about their reality is safe. I occupy the same philosophical and archetypal position as Gilgamesh, Asclepius and Jesus.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hlx6oefypliizxxuqf435awt/bafkreih5uvs6dnypeyx2llvituszk3by2ck445piif3icndk6fbfgytama)
