If the author can't bother to write the article himself why should the thousands of people who come across this post bother to read it?

How do I know where the author's own thoughts end and AI's assumptions about his thoughts begin?

Then again people typically don't read past the title so I suppose it doesn't matter what the content of the article is, as long as it gets people talking and directs traffic to their website.

Digging a bit more it looks like the magic system will be built around deities, spheres of influence [1], and workshops/professions centered around magic leading to procedurally generated spells. I'm really excited to see how it'll turn out.

On another note, heard on Bloomberg today that they've been working on GTA 6 for 10 years at this point. Considering the size of their development teams it's possible that more manhours may have gone into this single title than all video games that were made until the PS1 era combined.

Ironically this tendency to form an opinion without investing time might also be a form of brain rot.

As an example, this is you define a font in my engine: https://monospace.games/engine/manual/font-object-examples

The engine tries to make it as easy as possible to create new games and modify existing games by not obscuring its assets (see the basics section of the manual for more info), and my hope is to enable an ecosystem of indie creators with it. It still has a long way to go though, for example GUI related parts (menus, widgets, canvases, text buffers) have fairly matured, but game world related parts (maps, actors) are still heavily in development.

My main inspiration in the development of this has been Emacs (although I shied away from using Lisp for scripting), and the project has experienced a lot of convergent evolution that made it resemble web browsers. For example menu styles are "cascaded" similar to CSS, even though I wasn't familiar with web development at all when I first started this project.

Ultimately companies like Jane Street have no moral rudder and it is a waste of talent for smart young people to work for them, but we are so far beyond such considerations at this point that it sounds naive to even suggest that maybe talented people should work on things that make society better for everyone and care about the moral implications of their work. Instead everyone is looking for a way to contribute to the coming dystopia in whatever way they can because that's where the money is.

This led to the initial response here being quite frantic (some people even claiming that DKIM is now pointless) because presumably not everyone read the article to its very end where the actual explanation is, and then went back to the first image to realize that the author has been intentionally misleading to sell their cybersecurity services.

Our secure, centralized and proprietary offering with native AI and blockchain layers will replace the obsolete cruft that is email. Already secured several DoD contracts and expect to fully replace email for all internal and external communications of the federal government by 2027.
