  1. #coldtake je suis plutôt contre la généralisation des LLM dans nos vies mais critiquer son expansion en s'appuyant sur les chiffres de non-augmentation de productivité des entreprises à l'ère de l'IA ne devrait pas être un argument, à part dans des cas où l'inverse est affirmé et vendu par des VRP. C'est jouer le jeu capitaliste que de rapporter l'intérêt d'une technologie à son impact économique et on a d'autres arguments à faire valoir sans rentrer dans une matrice libérale

  2. Bit of a #coldtake, I know, but I’m abstractly considering moving to another server (feels kind of disingenuous to still be on sfba.social when I’m in WNC), and choosing one is still confounding. Feels like I’m ignoring the advantages of federation by just heading to mastodon.social (I’d rather just stay here). But choosing most any other feels like I’m making a political statement, or shouting that I’m _really into_ some hobby.

    I don’t want a political statement to be the first part of my identity people see online, and I’m not into anything enough that I want it to be the primary part of my identity.

    I know, I’m overthinking this…

  3. Don't come at me I'm just curious, because I don't think they are luck based. I think it's all pattern recognition and learning the best ways to deal with the pattern in a quick moment. But what do you think? #hottake #coldtake #rogue-like #roguelikes #soulslike #gaming #indiegames

  4. I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the #ColdTake series by #SecondWind for the past few months. For anyone interested in a fairly analytical take on the video games industry, it’s worth a watch.

    The most recent one really hits on a lot of notes I’m seeing parallels too in software at large: youtu.be/0UjAOUxiifE

    This is a really good summary of the economic and psychological background of why precisely AAA #gamedev is a clusterfuck of exploitation.

    For me, #Hades was the first Roguelike that drew me in, made me fall in love with its world and characters, and gave me a satisfying gameplay loop.

    Frost mentions the leveling curve being too anemic. During my first run I always felt like my skill was increasing at roughly the same pace as my stats were going up.

    I long for new intricate FPS campaigns, but Hades is like a Halo for its genre. Simple, accessible, and powerful. (and the score! ♥)

  8. After a fews months of consideration I believe that 2022's "The Batman", while not the most fun, is the best Batman film. #coldTake

  9. #HotTake !!!!

    You know scotch bonnet chillis?

    Does anyone else agree they're not as hot as we're made out to believe?

  10. As someone who likes to take their time with games and won’t buy a new one till it’s price has dropped, I really enjoyed this cold take: youtu.be/-OxtfdzO_28
