The Stochastic Game

Ramblings of General Geekery

Not too much walking for the good fluffy boy right now: he’s got a small paw infection and is limping a bit… should be cleared in a few days!


My favourite big sci-fi movie bad trope is “protagonist gets hired at the last minute to lead a super important mission that was years in the making”. That’s solid project management, there, Bob… (and yes, I know why it makes sense narratively speaking)


Would you say that people who ask a question and then answer it immediately are weird? Yes, I would, and yes, they are.


It’s weird to me that Mastodon still doesn’t have multiple timeline algorithms. “No algorithms” isn’t the opposite of Meta/Twitter/etc’s algorithms: it should be “algorithms you control” vs “algorithms you don’t control”. Bluesky understands that with its Feeds.


This summer is too hot, so it’s time for some nice refreshing clafoutis!
