Re-watching Con Air as I work today.

I love how '90s movies so often, no matter how absurd their core premise or plot got, played it dead serious, without the post-Whedon wink-and-a-nod to the audience that modern flicks feel obliged to include out of insecurity.

Good Name For A BlogVery Average PrototypesEarlier this year, I decided to give AI coding a go. In general, my emotional reaction to doing so was “anger and frustration”, but I found if I used it carefully it sped up what I was doing. It ate at me because all the ethical arguments against using it were strong. Yet, well, indie game dev is a brutal industry that’s only getting harder, I was feeling dispirited, and doing largely solo dev meant that if I could speed up some aspects of what I do… I should at least consider it.
