I make things with computers. Preferably artsy things, but I also like to work on random scripts and pipelines. I like D&D & video games, but don’t always have time to play them. I like pet chicken. I watch soccer, especially NWSL & USWNT, as well as some WSL and whatever happens to be on.

Just feeling sad, really. Not going through any episodes right now, so it’s just normal sadness. Playing a healthy amount of video games to distract myself.
Playing Dragon Age Veilguard. Just finished the first quest, and it’s a lot of fun so far.
Only read what you posted, not the longer article… I think that we should absolutely assess and evaluate the success of the program. The numbers on how many species are added, and how many are successfully removed, show that things aren’t really working.
And the cross breeding example is an interesting one. To me that seems more like a symptom: the species is forced to cross breeding because the population is too low to sustain interbreeding. Killing off barred owls is probably the wrong move.
But that doesn’t mean we should stop trying. Complaining about lost profits is such a slippery slope it’s not even worth discussing, in my opinion. Once a species is gone, that’s it, and no amount of profit can justify that.
So when a program doesn’t work, we shouldn’t say ‘eh, survival of the fittest,’ we should see what else we could do.
I’ve been playing the Ballionaire demo, which is pretty damn fun.
I miss good arcade racers. I don’t remember the name of them, but I remember on the Xbox or 360 there were some really fun ones where you race around cities and nice landscapes. You could just jump in with friends and race. These days any racing game I try is like a job. Oh, you want to race? First drive to the garage, pick your car, talk to the mechanic, then spend 20 minutes driving to the race track. Mario Kart is about the only fun racing game I can think of, but I’d prefer something with real cars.
Flying cars and hover boards
