What makes old franchises live or die? I wrote about my personal experiences with Tribes, Marble Blast/Marble It Up, Blockland, and Zap - all games with 20+ year followings. bengarney.com/2025/05/15/seq…

@bengarney have been pleasantly surprised. so nice to just have the code sitting there. i was like 'implement me a streaming base64 decoder so i can efficiently transform/stream this giant image blob i got in json from the ai using less memory' and, yah know, it just did it.

@wackie @cursor_ai Agreed, please live stream next time you do a password reset.

thanks Mac OS Tahoe, YES! i did want to use my one time code in my @cursor_ai agent prompt and when i came here to post about it.

@wackie Big difference between that offer for 1yr experience and 20yr, that’s for sure. My first job wasn’t massively far from that - a little less and a little later stage - I didn’t think twice about the salary and lived in my boss’ garage for a long time… it worked out very well.

my first programming job was for $9/hour after i dropped out of junior college – roughly double the minimum wage at the time. things worked out just fine. as long as they're taking a risk on the inexperienced and hungry i don't see an issue with it. have to get your foot in the door in the industry somehow.

Fascinating to see multiple LLMs converging on the same answer for a fairly complex question. Although notice that it's only specifying the mantissa not the exponent...

If you were writing the simulation we might live in, how many bits would you need in your data types? I asked @Grok and @ChatGPT both the following question. Answers in thread! "How many bits of precision would a floating point type need to have to represent the position of an electron in the observable universe down to a precision of the Planck distance?"

Fun fact, at GarageGames, we used our engine to build a chibi tank battle game and a gem collecting marble game... later Unity came out with a gem collecting marble game (youtube.com/watch?v=luDwU3…) and a chibi tank battle game (remake - youtube.com/watch?v=cb5pTd…)?

@zack_overflow Wait until you work in a million line plus codebases…

@shapesandlines This is the true Oregon coast experience. Accept no substitutes. 🌦️

I'm headed to the cost for a couple of days, where it's expected to be...checks forecast... 🤷♂️

"[LLMs] will only be truly impressive in the hands of exceptional software engineers" - if they require an incredibly talented user, how are LLMs different than a high friction text editor? That same user could use toggle switches... punch cards... assembly... (cont.)

The trend in GenAI over the next few years will be less with more. Apple has a big incentive to make their deployed hardware more effective, thus research like arxiv.org/abs/2505.19640… There will be a lot of underutilized AI data centers because of this.
