- Comment on Taking a photo to remember a moment is actually outsourcing that memory to an image, so your brain does less work and remembers it worse. 6 days ago:
The brain is incredibly malleable and, for a lot of people, memory is a vague image or a concept of something which happened. For a smaller subset, visual memory and visual imagination is not possible. Pictures are a more permanent visual representation, which can be additive to an experience. That’s not to say you shouldn’t live in the moment or that you should take pictures in lieu of making memories. You do you. I’m biased because I’m a photographer though.

- Comment on New Study: Global Fertility Rate Decline Now Linked Directly to the Commodification of Housing 5 weeks ago:
This is such an important finding if true. Does anyone have an idea about how reliable this is/ know of other news outlets reporting this as definitively?
I see sources which corroborate the thesis here and I’m asking if there are other news or policy outlets which agree with this.
Reason I think this is important is because falling birthrates are blamed on all kinds of reasons which are typical societal scapegoats. I’ve heard everything from immigrantiin, to women having jobs, to porn, and even videogames. I’d love it of we could focus on things that actually matter
- Comment on What's your greatest "gaming high" you've been chasing ever since? Please take care not to spoil anything, if you are going to be story-specific. 1 month ago:
The awe and grandeur of Occarina Of Time… at the time.

- Comment on The Great Software Quality Collapse: How We Normalized Catastrophe 1 month ago:
Accept that quality matters more than velocity. Ship slower, ship working. The cost of fixing production disasters dwarfs the cost of proper development.
This has been a struggle my entire career. Sometimes, the company listens. Sometimes they don’t. It’s a worthwhile fight but it is a systemic problem caused by management and short-term profit-seeking over healthy business growth

- Comment on Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs 2 months ago:
I haven’t seen this mentioned but apart from 8K being expensive, requiring new production pipelines, unweildley for storage and bandwidth, unneeded, and not fixing g existing problems with 4K, it requires MASSIVE screens to reap benefits.
There are several similar posts, but suffice to say, 8K content is only perceived by average eyesight at living room distances when screens are OVER 100 inches in diameter at the bare minimum. That’s 7 feet wide.
