I figure since it's an accessibility concern, it's pretty much the same as
like, putting ramps in buildings or braille or whatever. Those are legally
mandated, aren't they? I feel like if your building is big enough to require a
ramp it should be slowed down just a bit by the required addition of
accessibility developments to your software. Everyone else could build it in
pre-emptively or just because they cared.

Game designers should reward players for playing multiplayer games, not for
being good at playing multiplayer games.
They should still have a ranking, and matchmake against similarly skilled foes,
while also putting high level players amongst low level players occasionally
(and fairly, so maybe one on each team "smurf" style) in order to both teach
the low level players and let the high level player have catharsis.
When players are rewarded for being good, they stop playing the game to enjoy
it. That's fine, but both pickup games and NBA can exist at once and its not
due to the logistics of organizing a large group of skilled basketball players.
It's not always about skill.
By rewarding players for the number and quality of games they play, (so, no
afk-ing or throwing outside of being drunk or whatever) not only can you
increase engagement but also you encourage low-level and low-skill players to
compete just as much. Especially if you tell them "hey, we'll match you up with
people who have similar gameplay habits to you. Give it a bit though because
the system needs to be calibrated to your particular spirit"

explain, or connect two systems that aren't normally connected.
It should not be used as an eternal debug producing machine, nor as a way to
collect and store user information to be sold as the real product, nor to be
collecting and targeting -- stack overflow -- wow, talk about death of the
author, amiright? -- -- endless data hoarding monger machines to point and to
ponder the eternal ramifications of the brutal and violent prompts and their
baggage implied when submitted for each semi-random thought that from the users

I love video games! but I don't like Breath of the Wild because there's so
little picking-up-and-throwing things, and instead you use your magical
insights to do sorcerer powers which solve all of your biomechanical

the most important skill I can think of for a linux software engineer is the
ability to connect multiple systems together and turn windows and macintosh
devices into Linux devices so that datacenters can be built out of whatever's
on the around.
there's this programming language I like called Chapel for distributed
computation computing which is also cool, if you're more of the programming
type.
networking security I believe often has hardware solutions, so getting the
crypto-graphy boys and the PCB girls together to work on some jams is a good

you can trust me, but please don't rely on me, for all of my power is soft.
sometimes people just don't want to do what I tell them to, and I wouldn't have
it any other way.

also googly eyes on sunglasses to fuck with their eye-movement-tracking
... wait, then you wouldn't be able to see. okay how about you place the googly
eyes on the forehead part of a HELMET of some kind, which should help protect
your "not-gonna-get-back-up" parts from harm.
and don't forget sunglasses because they help with the UV-ray violet
radicalization.

remember kids, if you send the original image they can match it automagically.
but if it's altered with the addition of text, overlays, keyboard shortcuts,
twitch screamers, or other audio-visual artifacts, it's easier to disseminate.

if you're rich and you want stability, you'll invest in black trans communists.
the reason is, if they're forced to lose the country, you lose your investment.
which isn't ideal.
if you want to align yourself toward a particular goal or directionality,
putting some skin in the game is necessary.
power isn't fun if your pokerface sucks.

the reporting is the will of their constituents.
they are representatives of their constituents.
they must know the will of their constitution.
