I was thinking about procedural map generation. Specifically, procedural plants, cities, and facilities.

To me, there are a few factors that make these kinds of maps challenging, but the biggest one is that we have a very naive approach to what a "map" is.

Most of the time we think in terms of biomes or simulation, but in order to be useful as a playspace, the player's attention needs to be considered.

My intellectual history students read Lyotard's, "The Postmodern Condition" (1979) for our final class meeting today.

Lyotard says the chief characteristic of postmodernity is its skepticism toward grand narratives.

He writes about the need for intellectual inquiry that challenges the rules and orthodoxies of the age and what disasters await if we allow ourselves to be guided by nothing more than uncritical consensus.

TIL that in Nix, if you have a multi-line string of code, you can simply prefix it with a comment stating the name of the language and Tree-sitter will highlight it for you!

{
# The TOML string below will be highlighted!
programs.foo.extraConfig = /* toml */ ''
bar = "baz"

When this "AI" bubble pops, the men pretending they weren't pushing the hype, like "critics" whose position is "AGI is real but LLMs aren't the way," who were in eugenicist and "AI existential risk"๐Ÿ™„ circles, will get specials discussing what they saw coming, when its the women who actually told you so.

And then it will be rinse and repeat, onto the next grift.

I've often been ashamed to be from Alberta, but the blatant anti-democracy crap that is going on now with the UCP is infuriating. We need to shut down this province until we can clean out the maga fascists that are trying to destroy Canada. The Alberta Problem is now existential for all Canadians. Where are the Canadian business leaders saying they won't invest in unstable Alberta?
