News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

If I had to guess, bad games to good games ratio has always been like 99 to 1.

Issue is there are more games nowadays obviously, so more slop, though I'd be surprised if the ratio has moved much.

Human made trash has always polluted Steam.

Agree with this in general. Issue with this is who's doing the AI tagging?

The uploader? Easy to lie about. The playerbase? Will be false positives. Steam moderators? Maybe, seems like a ton of work though.

Besides, I'd say majority of software projects nowadays have at least some AI tooling involved in the development process, we tagging 99% percent of games?

It may be a dumb reason to do it, but recently I've started to focus on my health a bit more because of news like this (more exercise and healthier food).

The thinking is, if we find a way to massively extend the human lifespan/reverse aging I want to live long enough for that.

I'd be pissed if we as humanity solved aging and I die just before that, not taking any chances.

This is what I do as well.

Buy the paperback for larping and performative reading. Get the epub from Anna's to actually read it.

Wondering if people have managed to have Gemini in-front of other models like claude/codex models and only interact with that. Having Gemini act as a pure human/llm translator.
