Getting an ActionReplay for Pokémon Sapphire and going "what do these codes even mean???" kinda kicked off my career. Randomly changing digits in the warp-codes to see where it would take me and eventually just learning hexadecimal and GBA internals. Had a whole notebook too.

What game has taught you the most? By "taught", I mean anything: history, geopolitics, philosophy, or just generally aided in your self-development?

Also modding the Halo 1 PC trial around the same time on my dad's laptop was a big moment where I learned Visual Basic and eventually C# and then later on C++. All this happened when I was like 9-12 years old.

Glad to have lived in the pre-ai slop era of game modding, emulation, decomps, recomps, etc. It's just gonna be a total slop-fest now moving forward.

Feels like now that anyone can recomp/decomp/mod games with AI, we're going to see even more oppressive ways that companies will try to protect their IP. Like an even worse era of DRM and not-owning-your-games and such since companies are going to want to defend against this.

Wish we could limit comments to non-checkmarks or something. Pretty much every comment section requires like 12 scrolls to avoid all the engagement bait bot-comments.

I've had several customer-service experience this month that have had indicates of heavy LLM usage. Totally random side-tracking. Steam-Support in particular: "Hey my ethernet/wifi/controller all disconnect during games" "I'm here to help about your audio-disconnection issue!" ??

You used to be able to see a cool thing online and the person who made it was generally very knowledgeable and passionate about the subject and you can see the love and care put into it and how they're getting well-earned recognition for it but that trust is just totally gone man

I followed people based on them being knowledgeable about their crafts and passions for the things I've seen them make. But now I've seen them turn into much more boring versions of themselves with AI. They don't really talk about their craft much anymore.

They just talk about how they've rigged AI into something and how happy they are to do these things even _less_ now and how they're surrendering more of themselves to AI. They only talk about AI now and openly share their atrophy to the world😖
