This. We are currently in the new golden era of Indie games or even gaming in general. You can’t plan success anymore with marketing and market research.

But you can succeed spectacularly with genuinely good games like Balatro or Slay the Spire.

Elden Ring and Baldur’s Gate 3 probably kept all those gamers too busy for too long. Same will happen with GTA VI.
We went from micromanaging code to micromanaging tools and markdowns.

Yes a bit but I work in a highly regulated corporate environment in which Engineers spend around 30% of their time with actual coding and the rest is gathering undocumented and silo’d knowledge through endless meetings and alignments, designing business processes around regulation obstacles and legacy apps, agile overhead and of course MFA processes and role ordering. Right now I don’t see much threat since it seems they have to dim down on autonomous workflows due to regulatory requirements and token costs.

I love how LLMs transformed my daily routine at work. So far I have more time coding what I want and get paid for it while Claude writes the boring Spring 2 Crud for me.

Of course most (on-site) Hackathons are best for networking and not for building great software.

There are many things going in the wrong direction in this country but most things are that are not in the sphere of politics are fine. The problem is mostly in my opinion that political decisions are made by career politicians. We could really use some fresh air in our political system with more participation by the actual society (e.g. make it easier to get a political mandate without deep affiliation in a political party) and less about internal party politics.

Trampolines are not just a product, they are a platform.
Cool, I needed a lightweight markdown editor. I like Obsidian but it's not really a notebook. What's missing is a ToC view for your .md as a sidebar which Obsidian has.
