My manager: - “We need all hands on deck to fix the vulnerabilities today! It’s the number 1 priority!” Also my manager the next day: - “Other departments are complaining that their support requests went unanswered yesterday! What’s the gap?”

Our security partner did send a fake phishing email once (not as dickish as this one) but they didn’t warn IT… So as soon as an employee reported it to me, I blocked the sender and seeing as it had been sent to everyone, deleted it from every employee’s mailbox. So nobody clicked on it.

this is fucking appalling. i already knew james dolan (who owns the knicks and madison square garden) was a douche but this is next-level. www.nytimes.com/athletic/771...

The Knicks assistants were told they would receive championship rings eventually, but many longtime employees at Madison Square Garden, including some who work in the Knicks' business operations, will not receive rings at all, team sources told The Athletic. Typically, most employees for NBA teams receive rings, even if they are not as fancy and expensive as the ones the players receive. Those MSG employees got their hopes up at the end of September when the Knicks sent an email to a long list of employees, which gave recipients a first glimpse at their would-be championship rings. Atop the email, a copy of which The Athletic has obtained, was a graphic of two differently styled rings. "Congratulations, your Employee Championship Ring is here," the email read.

I've come to the conclusion it's fine to just be blanket anti-AI right now. We can have the nuanced discussions about local models, limited usage, etc. later. It's simply not possible to have those discussions right now. The current emergency is AI as fascist movement. We need to fight that.

The “Yield for pedestrians” sign appears to be particularly confusing for some people. One thing it DOESN’T mean is “It’s not a stop sign so I can beep my horn and yell at pedestrians trying to cross while I speed through the intersection!”

Widespread road re-testing is probably a pipe dream, but I think at the very least drivers should have to do a written test every time they renew their license because people many people have no idea what the actual rules of the road are

Last year, miHoYo copied my puzzle game Ouros in Zenless Zone Zero. Because they are a recognized, billion-dollar studio and my game isn't well known, some people are now assuming that their version is the original, and mine is the clone. I hope this video clears that up.

Dry Bones my baby Phidippus Regius gave me a chelicerae gender reveal: It’s a girl! She was already trending on the pale side on her two last molts, but that little pink glint pretty much confirmed it!

This is my latest baby spood Dry Bones (I have a Super Mario villains theme going on). I don’t know yet if they’re male or female, but they’re of the Apalachicola variety. Yesterday morning, when I looked in the enclosure, I saw a small crumpled form at the bottom. I thought: “Oh no, what happened?

Nothing brightens my day like meeting a friendly cat on my way to the grocery store! According to his medal, this charming gentleman is named Leon. He rolled on the sidewalk for me and wouldn’t let me stop the scritches!

Blue Bottle Games, as a policy, does not use generative AI. It's something we've discussed as a team, weighing the pros and cons, and ultimately, we decided it was not for us. Recently, while chatting with a colleague, she mentioned it was useful hearing our reasoning. So: Sharing time! 1/12
