i called and it was some woman talking about her cat and how she smokes to become productive but then can never go to sleep with some guy agreeing with everything she said.
rainy-city.com! rainy-city.com is an ambient rain sound generator that is also a kind of city simulation. it is my recurse center project. it's suppose to be more of an ambient experience than a city simulator. it's a total work in progress, I've implemented buildings but haven't made a PR yet because they don't really work the way I want them to, and so I had to rebuild the tiling for them. So right now, there is no city. lol. just rain. but eventually it will have all this stuff you would expect. there are whales.

Most modern news writing needs more flourish such as this.
Harold Scruby and his "Pedestrian Council of Australia" is one man and a fax machine who's been blaming victims for decades. Any news media who quotes him without pointing this out loses all authority.
Some people seem think that self promotion is wrong and work should stand on its own merits. I don’t think this way. It’s important to think about engaging and attracting eyes to your ideas. If you don’t why bother sharing them?
it's mostly only accessible to folks who are part of the Recurse Center - but there are public events at Recurse such as https://luma.com/localhost-rcade -- which is a talk about the RCade..! (it seems to be waitlist-only at this point unfortunately)
If anyone wants to attend but can't, we'll post the recording of the talk to the Recurse Center's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@RecurseCenter (Where you can also watch recordings of all of our previous talks!)
Something tells me that this was all predetermined prior to hegseth throwing a fit. That was just bullshit theatre to justify government handouts I’m to OpenAI. I dunno. I don’t make the decisions.
