  • Kids: “So you care about us?”

    Conservatives: “Shut up you little kid, you have the duty to take care of your parents even if they’re awful to you, and to learn a lot in school!”

    Young adults: “So we can get college degrees?”

    Conservatives: “No you stupid idiot, even if you graduate with top grades, you have to go to learn trades instead, our donors have finally automated the job of intellectuals!”

    Workers: “So you’re pro-worker? Will the AI mean less work for us?”

    Conservatives: “No you lazy idiot, you will have to work like in China’s 996 system, all while we gut the remaining job security under you!”










  • When I wanted to write my own game engine in 2015, people just directed me to Unity. Some people even said that unless I want to work for some company that actually develops the engines, I don’t need to learn API or anything like that. It took a while to people to point me in the direction of SDL for input and displaying a framebuffer (back then I used CPU rendering, as almost no one cared about pixel alignment, hence why my engine is called PixelPerfectEngine).
