Here's what I see from frame-by-frame of the video:

The officer with the helmet on the left trips his right foot on his bike headbutting the woman in the stomach, the old man in the white shirt tries to pull the officer off her, another much younger officer comes in from bottom center and begins deliberately punching the old man in the left side of his guts repeatedly.

The old man wasn't resisting, wasn't fighting, he was trying to protect the woman next to him, and GE-Minns thinks what the police did is "fine"..

연인과 함께하는 소중한 시간

1. 서로의 작은 배려에 감사함을 느낀다
2. 진심을 담은 대화로 마음을 나눈다
3. 함께 웃고 울며 감정을 공유한다
4. 서로의 성장을 응원하고 지지한다
5. 일상의 작은 순간들을 소중히 여긴다

AAA 게임에 대한 위기랑 PC AAA 게임에 대한 위기는 약간 다르다고 생각합니다.
AAA 게임에 대한 위기는 지나친 개발 비용에 따른 문제이고,
PC AAA 게임에 대한 위기는 최적화 부족에 따른 고사양이 아닌 사용자의 퍼포먼스 부족 이슈에 따른 위기라고 생각합니다.

그래서 두가지 방향으로 나아가고 있다고 보고 있는데
AAA 게임에 대한 위기는, AA/A/B/인디급 게임을 개발/출시도 병행하여 전반적인 선택지를 넓게 만드는 방향으로 나아가고,
PC AAA 게임에 대한 위기는 게임 개발사가 어느정도 그래픽 욕심을 버리고 게임을 만드는 것입니다.

Ummmm...

ID photos of 70,000 users may have been leaked, says

by Osmond Chia, October 9, 2025

"Discord, a messaging platform popular with gamers, says official ID photos of around 70,000 users have potentially been leaked after a .

"The platform, which has more than 200 million users worldwide, says hackers had targeted a firm that helped to verify the ages of its users but the Discord platform itself was not breached.

"People can provide ID photos to verify their age on Discord - a networking hub for players to chat and share files with others in the gaming community."

Look like Google is running out of money to fund its AI biz. Alphabet Looks to Raise About $15 Billion From US Bond Sale bloomberg.com/news/articles/20 ( archive.is/Ki9aD )

For the first time since the dot com bubble, tech companies are issuing bonds again. I wonder how they’ll pay if the AI bubble bursts? Sounds like a risky bet to me.

RE: mastodon.social/@verge/1160410

Two things:
1. We are creating a two-tiered internet that will see people willing to give up their IDs having one experience while those who can’t, won’t, or don’t have them missing out on those experiences or being outright excluded from whole areas of the web

2. Why you would be willing to give up your ID to web services that have such poor security in a time when identity is being weaponized by state actors is beyond me

마인크래프트가 처음 유행하기 시작한 시절, 나는 마인크래프트라는 이름만 듣고 '지뢰 만드는 게임'인줄 알았음 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

지뢰찾기가 Minesweeper 잖아? 그러니까 그럴만도 하지 ㅋ

いやほんまこのとおりで河野洋平と細川護煕こそ万死に値するやろ https://newsdig.tbs.co.jp/articles/-/720930

ジャーナリスト 後藤謙次氏: 「この選挙制度、当時幹事長だった梶山(静六)さんが大反対しました。反対の理由は“この制度は執行部独裁制を作るんだ”。つまり小選挙区では党内で一人しか公認されない。その公認権は執行部が握るわけですから、執行部には反旗を翻せない。結局みんな従順なネズミを捕らない猫になってしまう。現に今そうなってますよね。 それをフル活用したのが小泉さんであり、安倍さんですよ。特に小泉さんはこの制度に猛反対した人ですよ。その人が政権を取ったらフル活用。とにかく野党を作らない。党内野党も作らない。そうなると党内議論も起こらない。その結果、政治家の劣化を招いた…」

Quality, Velocity, Open Contribution — pick two. If you try for all three, you get none — the maintainers burn out, the project becomes unsustainable.
Lua and SQLite picked quality, and dropped both velocity and open contribution.
When your project is mature enough, you can afford to.
For a project like LLVM, open contribution is not optional — so you're really choosing between quality and velocity.
LLM-aided development dramatically increases contribution volume without increasing reviewer capacity.
LLM-aided review may help at the margins — catching mechanical issues, summarizing patches — but the core bottleneck is human judgment.

国会議員が一応国民の代表ということになっているという前提を考慮しない議員定数の削減論には思うところはあるけど、それはそれとして小選挙区とかいう枠に限っては減らしても良いのではという気持ちもある。

実際当初の提案においては小選挙区と比例の議席数が1対1だったところを当時の自民党の議員数に合わせて小選挙区の割合を増やしたという経緯だったらしいし(<newsdig.tbs.co.jp/articles/-/7>)
