Hah. This takes me back. Classic doesn't quite cover it.

I will say it's nice not having to click and Move on the sidebar manually each time you want to move a unit.

I do seem to remember each unit made a sound when you click them like "reporting" and when you move them "acknowledged"? Which again was incredibly repetitious but also quite characterful!

I'd be interested to know what agents you're using. You mentioned Claude and GPT in passing, but don't actually talk about which you're using or for which tasks.

How did you manage to acquire /four/ bullies?

Google and Google Ads are not one and the same.

The jump from the op's "i screwed up my google ads campaigns" to "Research shows that many young people are getting their information from short video platforms like TikTok"....

LLMs Are Not Fun 7 months ago

exactly

end of the day, guys like the author, for better or worse, are going to be replaced by the next generation of developers who don't care for the 'aesthetics' in the same way

Another message of hope: I'm mid-late thirties and had the exact same. Daily tinnitus from December 2024 through to around August 2025.

I went through MRI etc to no avail.

Then one day I felt something (extremely deep in my ear) just 'release', like a tube unblocking or pressure equalising. And the sound went away and (fingers crossed) hasn't come back since. This was after daily issues for 8-9 months solid.

I had this too last week. It pointed out two errors that simply weren’t there. Then completely refused to back down and doubled down on its own certainty, until I sent it a screenshot of the original prompt. Kind of funny.

Honestly if you're removing meta tags from the html of a page for page speed/server space/bandwidth/environmental benefits -- it's time to do something else

I hate FB/twitter as much as the next tech-savvy person but accept that my users use those platforms and it's good for my website to show up optimally when they do

Doesn’t exactly answer your question, but I am hoping zerospace is the ‘next big thing’ / thing to reinvigorate the genre

Recent steam demo is super, super fun

It’s a shame aoe3 didn’t manage to pull over the sizable aoe2 audience and build upon it. That is basically the only major rts release in years. And it is really good but it was never going to be aoe2 and that’s not good enough for that hardcore player base.
