I write, make, draw, play, game, and do handsome faces. I made Hive Time. Currently making Fossil Sweeper (a game about digging up fossils), Winter's Wake & Icicle (and a stack of side things).
My avatar is a stylised self portrait with short messy hair, set within a hexagonal shaped slice of cheese with holes in.
#nobridge should not be necessary -_-
I mean I think it's all slop; I also think you know full well you're letting billionaire nazis do your thinking for you and this shit is absolutely going to obliterate whatever remaining critical thinking skills exist in our society. I would reject AI even if it did work because I LIKE thinking and speaking for myself, and I'm not looking to kill the planet for some shitty fake art, but also? It doesn't work. It's garbage and depending on it makes you more controllable. It's a fascism machine

People make a lot of claims about what is and isn't happening for software teams but ask so little about how software teams are being studied. Are we honestly supposed to think that survey science for behavioral questions about software teams doesn't need to be anything other than clustering a scant handful of weird self-reported items into ordered groups and then saying that's a meaningful benchmark
Because I'll give you a hint, that's also exactly how snake oil personality tests are created

THIS IS A TEST!
This is a test of the polling system. Please vote, especially if you are outside of beige.party. I'm trying to prove a theory that since v4.3.4 polls with more than 4 options only record votes from the local instance. This poll is the control.
What's your favorite temper?
Edit: Adding this here for visibility. This was not a bug in the Mastodon code, but rather the result of me increasing the max poll options on the web server but not on the server running the sidekiq processes.

Monopoly wasn't invented by the Parker Brothers, nor the man they gave it credit for. In 1904, Monopoly was originally called The Landlord's Game, and was invented by a radical woman. Elizabeth Magie's original game had not one, but two sets of rules to choose from.
One was called "Prosperity", where every player won money anytime another gained a property. And the game was won by everyone playing only when the person with the least doubled their resources. A game of collaboration and social good.
The second set of rules was called "Monopoly", where players succeeded by taking properties and rent from those with less luck rolling the dice. The winner was the person who used their power to eliminate everyone else.
Magie's mission was to teach us how different we feel when playing Prosperity vs Monopoly, hoping that it would one day change national policies.
When the Parker Bros adopted the game, they erased the "Prosperity" rules and celebrated "Monopoly".
