I thought both Factor and Divide were interesting twists to the battle system, but neither were given enough room to breathe. With different boss numbers in the early progression, Factor can be tuned to make battles winnable that otherwise aren’t. That saves Divide for later in the progression. As it is now, they both surface around the same time and crowd each other’s debut.

It’d also be good to highlight new developments by making them unlockable in the Clubs skill tree. E.g. make an unlock or unlocks for “2-star numbers auto attack”. And “Unlock Factor where factorials of boss numbers get huge stat increases.” It mostly gives you a way to spell out and educate new mechanics, but also it pads out the Clubs skill tree which is a bit thin comped to other games like this.

I hope you keep iterating on it, it’s a really good game!

Maybe the literary creature shoe should have started on the other foot, and sent us in search of proof that we are or are not p-angels. That at least puts the burden of proof on the compatibilists where it belongs.

You want to have your own pathway to production that dodges competitors’ patents, is somewhat defensible itself, maybe a brand, etc.

The recent Meta lawsuits also mention opposition from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and Meta's own executives: Monika Bickert (head of content policy) and Antigone Davis (global head of safety). Both executives mention the danger end-to-end encryption poses to children when attached to a social media graph.

I don’t view this as a hollowing out of my skill tree, I view it as freeing myself to focus on modern skills I need to develop. Such as learning how to steer LLM context windows towards maintainable solutions in large codebases.

I’m sure I’ll be thankful now and then that I know how to manually sift through stack traces for answers. But I expect those moments to be rarer and rarer. I basically never look at machine code, but I bet that used to be an important skill for programmers many decades ago.

Input image is important too. When working with the generalist LLM on the raster art, give it context that you are making a logo, direct it to use strokes and fills and minimal color palette, readable at small sizes, etc.

My commit messages are pretty basic “verbed foo” notes to myself, and I’m going to squash merge them to mainline anyway. The atomic commits, sometimes aided by git add -p, are to keep me nimble in an active codebase.

Once they realize how depressed their wages were in the games industry there’s no hope of getting them back.

Funny enough, the time zone restriction acts as a crude proxy for locality and slightly scratches the itch; more than the time window does.

The milk will say "Best if Used By ".
