Everything far away in a game engine can feel small, flat, and washed out. That is correct perspective, but it can make for some poor scenery sometimes. Two features I've added to my engine try to fight against that: Spatial Recession magnifies the distance. After a vertex is projected... I push its screen position outward from center. Near geometry is untouched. It only moves x and y, never depth, so nothing sorts differently and nothing z-fights. The result is a long lens bolted onto the far half of a wide one: the tower and the ridgeline loom instead of receding, while I keep the wide field of view I actually play in (FOV is identical in both of these examples). Dimensional Falloff is four distance ramps on the surface itself. Lighting contrast flattens so distant hills stop having a hard lit side and a hard dark side, which is what haze does in real life. Color then desaturates toward its own brightness to fake more distance. Then that desaturated color is pushed, and that is the one doing most of the visible work here. Last is texture detail, with a custom MIP value based on distances. All of it keys off real radial distance from the camera rather than depth This is so it stays put when you turn your head. Performance cost is next to nothing. The recession is two lines in the vertex shader. The falloff is a few lerps at the end of the pixel shader, which was already computing that distance for the mip bias anyway. Quite happy with the results, what do you think? #gamedevshow more

Let me explain what I'm doing here for those who are interested. I've been building a retro-style D3D12 game engine from scratch, and recently implemented a "Spatial Compression" effect. Essentially its a technique that makes distant geometry appear larger than standard perspective projection would, giving scenes a telephoto compression feel without changing the camera FOV globally (to keep things "normal" when close to the camera). The goal: foreground geometry completely unchanged, objects beyond a configurable start distance progressively scaled up, with a smooth power-curve falloff. The solution: Once the full view-projection transform has been applied, I'm holding 2D screen coordinates. Camera orientation is already resolved at that point, so it's done its job. Scaling those coordinates outward from screen center is a pure 2D operation with no dependency on where the camera is pointing. The scale factor itself is derived from Euclidean world-space distance between the camera and the vertex (not a view-space value, which would rotate with the camera). Combined with the 2D application, both ingredients are fully rotation-invariant. Critically, only the XY screen coordinates are modified. Depth values are left completely untouched, so the depth buffer and any shadow calculations remain correct. I then tried inverting the effect for the opposite in interiors, leading to "Spatial Expansion".

Chase Hughes says we ARE living in a Simulation “Separation is the GREATEST LIE ever told to the entire world.” In a dream the house in front of you, the air between you and that house, and the distance itself are all made of the same thing: you. There is no real distance. Everything is recursive back to one point of consciousness. This is the same truth carried in the 7000-year-old Hermetic principle “All is mind. The universe is mental” and “As above, so below.” Quantum physics keeps confirming it. “You are nature. You’re made out of that dirt.” Psychedelics rewire the brain so fast they delete the illusion of separation. Everything you see is created by mind. No distance. No other. Just ONE. What do you define as real?

One of the largest trading firms in the world teaches new hires poker before it lets them near a book. A newspaper brought a camera to the table and sat down to play. The men across the felt are working Wall Street traders. The firm is Susquehanna, which built poker into its training programme decades ago and still runs it that way, on the argument that the card room teaches something no finance degree does. Gunjan Banerji from the Wall Street Journal plays the hands herself rather than interviewing them about it. A green table, a dealer, chips, 4 people who do this for a living. No lecture hall, no slides. The teaching happens between deals, while money is actually at stake. They break it into parts on camera. Risk management first. Then bet sizing. Then patience, which sounds like the soft one and is not. Then reading the person opposite when the only data available is how they behave with money on the table. The section on patience is the one most people skip. Folding is the correct action in the overwhelming majority of hands, and almost nobody can do it for hours without inventing a reason to play. The same failure shows up in a trading account as overtrading, and it kills more people than bad analysis. Then bet sizing, which is where the video earns the watch. Being right about the odds is the easy half. How much you put behind a correct read is the part that ends careers, and they work through it hand by hand instead of describing it in the abstract. The turn is what the traders admit about being wrong. A good decision loses regularly, a bad decision wins regularly, and the only way to last is to grade the process instead of the result. Everything else in the video sits downstream of that. It matters more now than when the firm started running these tables. Every model prices probability in a second and hands it to you for free. Nothing on the screen tells you how much of your account to put behind the number, or what to do after the number was right and you lost anyway. Free on YouTube, produced by a newspaper, filmed at a real table with real hands. The maths is public. The sizing is the job. 1 table. 4 traders. It is in the video.

Chamath: Fraud at this scale will end the American Empire if nothing is done “It is a crucible moment for American society.” “If nothing happens and we deem this kind of theft acceptable, it is the beginning of the end of the American Empire.” “It's just a level of disrespect and lack of care for this country.” “I will be waiting and observing how important it is to root this out, that's number one.” “The second, which is more tactical political calculus, this is an enormous opportunity for the Republican Party if they take this and run with this.” “Is there waste, fraud and abuse in every state? Absolutely. I don't think this is endemically a Democratic problem, but the scale of it is so gargantuan in these Democratic states that if the Republicans don't take advantage of it, I think it is a huge political miscalculation.” “So there is this tactical opportunity, which I think if you want to have a chance in the midterms and if you generally wanna have a chance to level-set the country, you must take this and run with it.” “And then separately, if as Friedberg says, it does die on the vine, it is the beginning of the end of the American Empire, unfortunately.”

Chase Hughes on Simulation Theory: “Separation is the GREATEST LIE ever told to the entire world.” The behavior expert and former military interrogation trainer says dreams reveal how reality actually works. In a dream the distance between you and a fireplace is made of the same substance as the fireplace itself, which is made of the same substance as you. Everything is recursive back to one point of consciousness. There is no actual distance and no actual other. It is all you. He ties this to the first Hermetic principle written thousands of years ago: all is mind, the universe is mental. Quantum physics keeps circling the same idea. Matter is mostly empty space. Observation changes outcomes. What looks solid and separate may be consciousness appearing to itself as objects, people, and distance. Hughes asks whether waking life is simply the next layer, a shared dream rather than a private one. If that is true, the feeling that you are cut off from everyone and everything is the oldest and most effective lie ever sold.

I've become a missionary with one message. Every time I meet a young person, the same words: have children, get married, build a family. I did not decide on this calling. It overtook me. And it overtook me for a single reason. I had no idea. I genuinely did not understand how much joy, how much meaning, how much sheer beauty pours out of a child until I was holding one of my own and felt the floor of my life drop into something deeper than I knew was there. I grew up white, affluent, secular, comfortable, and insulated. That world does not put babies in front of you. None of my friends were starting families. Out of my whole circle, almost no one has a big one. We were not formed by the presence of children. We were formed by their absence, by the strange quiet of homes built for two careers and no cradle. And a person believes what his world shows him. So we believed. What we believed was a lie. It is a lie with an author, and that the author is the enemy of joy himself. It is the gospel of the world, and its commandment is wait. Wait until you are older. Wait until the career is built and the savings are stacked and the twenties are properly spent. Enjoy your freedom. You are not ready. It does not arrive sounding like temptation. It arrives sounding like wisdom, like prudence, like the responsible thing, and that is exactly why it works. The most effective lies are the ones that wear the face of virtue. And the maddening thing is that it collapses from every angle at once. It is not rooted in biology, because the body is made for this work precisely in the years we are told to postpone it. The flesh keeps a calendar the culture pretends not to see. And it is not rooted in theology either. You will not find this deferral anywhere in the Christian imagination, in any of the fathers, in any of the scriptures. So choose whatever lens you like. Take the cold secular measure or the ancient sacred one. By either light the counsel is rotten. It is bad for the body and bad for the soul and bad for the society downstream of both. This is why I have come to see it as one of the central tragedies of my generation. Every age carries its own wound. The Great Depression was a depression of bread, a scarcity in the world of matter, hunger you could measure. Ours is a depression of a different order. It is a famine of the spirit in the middle of abundance. We have more than any people who ever lived and we are starving in a way our ancestors would not recognize, because the thing we are refusing cannot be bought and cannot be banked. The ones most made to give and receive this love are quietly declining it. They are walking away from the one inheritance that actually compounds, and the cruelest part is that they do not feel the loss as loss. You cannot grieve what you were taught not to want. That is the deepest cut of it. The lie does not only steal the thing. It steals the capacity to know the thing was stolen. A man can spend his whole life on the far side of a door he never knew was a door, mistaking the wall for the edge of the world. Because this beauty is not ordinary beauty. It is not the pleasure of a good meal or a clear morning. It is participation in something that comes down from above, the same generative love that spoke everything out of nothing and called it good. To make a person, to be undone and remade by loving that person more than your own life, is to be drawn for a moment inside the very act that holds the cosmos together. A child does not merely add to your life. A child reorders the soul. It teaches you what you are by asking everything of you, and you discover, kneeling there exhausted at three in the morning, that you had a capacity for self gift you never suspected, a depth in yourself you had no other way to reach. In the Gospel of John, on the last night, Jesus prays, these things I have spoken to you that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete. And I have come to understand why family is the road into that fullness, why it is not one path among many but the one most fitted to the shape of the promise. Consider who is praying. Christ does not come to us as a lone figure dropped out of the sky. He comes out of a family older than the world, the eternal communion of Father and Son, the love between them so total and so alive that theologians dared to call it a third person. Before there was anything, there was a family. The deepest fact about reality is not a force or a law or a void. It is a household. It is begetting and being begotten, giving and receiving, a Father who is only a Father because there is a Son. So when Jesus speaks of joy made complete, he is not pointing away from family toward something higher. He is pointing toward the very thing he came from, the life he has known from eternity and came to share. His joy is the joy of belonging utterly to a Father and pouring himself out for those he loves. When you marry, when you bring a child into the world, when you wear yourself down in the small unseen labors of a home, you are not stepping outside that divine life. You are stepping into a small image of it. Your family is a created echo of an uncreated one. The love you give your child rhymes with the love the Father has for the Son. The exhaustion, the tenderness, the way a parent would tear the sky open to protect a sleeping infant, all of it is the heavens pressed faintly into flesh, the eternal household leaving its fingerprint on yours. That is why the joy is not merely added to family but completed in it. We were made in the image of a God who is, at his very root, relation and gift and generation. To found a family is to do the most Godlike thing a creature can do, to participate from below in the begetting that God does from all eternity. Your home becomes a window. Through it, dimly and imperfectly, you glimpse the country you came from and are going to. And now a word for the young people reading this, the ones who do not yet have children. I want to tell you what it is like from where I stand. When I am out somewhere, a restaurant, anywhere, and a large family comes through the door, the noise and the chaos and the small bodies of them, something happens in me on two levels at once. The first is joy. A pure gladness at the sight, the way you feel watching something good and alive. But underneath it, almost in the same instant, a sadness reaches up and takes hold of my heart. Because I know now, at my age, after my own years of waiting, that I will never have that. I will never know the particular fruit of a family that large, the fullness of that table, the weight of all those lives gathered under one roof. The door to it has quietly closed, and I felt it close. And I am telling you plainly, because I love you and have no reason to lie to you: you will feel this too. You will. The day will come when you see what you passed up, and you will recognize the ache for what it is, and it will be too late to answer it. So please, learn from a man who got it wrong. Let my regret be worth something by becoming your wisdom. Do not wait yourself into a grief you cannot undo. Choose now, while the door is open, so that you may step into a joy that does not end.

Edgar Wright on his favourite shot in 'Black Narcissus' (1947): "I think 'Black Narcissus' (1947) is one of the greatest colour movies of all time. There is one particular shot towards the end of the film with Kathleen Byron, which, in my head, that is probably minutes of film, when in reality the shot is only on screen for less than two seconds And it's a shot of Kathleen Byron coming through a doorway, and it's part of an incredible climax, which I won't spoil if you've never seen the film. But it's one of those shots in Cinema that is ingrained on my brain. Like a lot of Powell and Pressburger films, I think it's just [has] a picturesque quality to it which is just somehow difficult to pinpoint exactly what the magic of Powell and Pressburger together is. But I think the thing is sometime these are the films that you keep returning to, is you can't kind of define exactly what it is about the film that keeps you obsessed, you just keep coming back. And this is one of those movies." ('Edgar Wright’s Closet Picks', Criterion, 2025)

6 years ago today I made my debut as Glinda in Wicked the Musical. I was in the ensemble and understudied the role at the time. Sometimes I still can’t believe that it was me. That while making some of my wildest dreams come true, I (hopefully) opened the hearts and minds of countless people who now know that nothing is out of reach when you are qualified, work hard, and remain humble. I like to think that Making History is a special way of saying, “I opened the door and propped it, so that whoever is strong and brave enough to take the journey will be able to see the light on in the distance”. One day soon, I’ll write it all down and share it with you all. Until then… all my love 💕🫧 #BrittneyTheGood

Now that I am home and have access to my files I decided to do a quick test with one of my Vtubing avatars. It works way better with my larger iPad Pro (less crashing/more memory and more screen space) compared to the mini so I did want to bring that up. Importing the file over as GLB was more stable than just OBJ plus it kept the color info from the previous texture. I texture all my avatars on substance painter but have been looking at an alternative when I am out and about that is not on the computer and this actually hits all the right "wants". Adding a quick video of the way the app works for me. I like that it has layers, I can alter my brushes and even add stabilization when I am drawing (which I use that extensively on procreate so that was a huge plus). The stamp tools will come in handy as well but did not show it on this video. The file itself is imported as "one mesh" but each part is treated as their own separate piece which I show in the video. I do the same thing on substance painter making it really easy for me to texture. The app then exports the texture out for each object which is the same way I do so on substance. Overall I am extremely impressed with the work Sparseal has done on this application and see how useful this will be for my current work flow of texturing. I for one love the ability to be "portable" which is a big reason I sculpt so much with Nomad Sculpt on the iPad. Having the freedom to do your work away from a desk and if you feel like doing it outside is probable why I yearn for iPad apps so much like so. Give this app a look, it is free to try on the App Store (It is $19 to be able to export, but a one time buy). It is called "Wafer" for the iPad. I already use CozyBlanket from the same creator to do re topology so I expected this level of fantastic with this current app.

Now that I am home and have access to my files I decided to do a quick test with one of my Vtubing avatars. It works way better with my larger iPad Pro (less crashing/more memory and more screen space) compared to the mini so I did want to bring that up. Importing the file over as GLB was more stable than just OBJ plus it kept the color info from the previous texture. I texture all my avatars on substance painter but have been looking at an alternative when I am out and about that is not on the computer and this actually hits all the right "wants". Adding a quick video of the way the app works for me. I like that it has layers, I can alter my brushes and even add stabilization when I am drawing (which I use that extensively on procreate so that was a huge plus). The stamp tools will come in handy as well but did not show it on this video. The file itself is imported as "one mesh" but each part is treated as their own separate piece which I show in the video. I do the same thing on substance painter making it really easy for me to texture. The app then exports the texture out for each object which is the same way I do so on substance. Overall I am extremely impressed with the work Sparseal has done on this application and see how useful this will be for my current work flow of texturing. I for one love the ability to be "portable" which is a big reason I sculpt so much with Nomad Sculpt on the iPad.

“What I think SPX is, is a wake-up call. And I think for the normie, the average person, it literally is best described as being the next Bitcoin, because that's literally what it is. Bitcoin was a wake-up call to show people that value is subjective. And SPX is the next iteration of that. And once you get enough people to understand that the value of the dollar is subjective.

Chamath's CDS Bet: Outlining Major Corporate Debt Default Risks "With all of the tariffs, the one thing that we haven't sufficiently talked about is there is a tremendous amount of corporate debt that supports these businesses today." "And you would say, 'Well, if long-term rates go down, there's no real risk.'" "But the tariff picture actually impacts revenues." "And the problem with that is that there's a lot of companies that have debt covenants tied to revenue and EBITDA." "And so this is what I spoke about at the beginning of January, which is, the one risk that is uncontrollable, is what happens to corporate debt and could we see a wave of defaults and a wave of action?" On our 2025 predictions show in January, Chamath Palihapitiya picked credit default swaps as his best-performing asset this year, calling it a long-shot with major upside: " I would be long CDS. I'm buying insurance using credit default swaps. I think that there is a small chance of some volatility next year. I hope it doesn't happen. I hope that this trade loses money. But if it hits, it will be the best-performing asset of 2025." Fast-forward to April: " It has hit. For every billion dollars of risk you would've put on, would have cost you ~$1M, and that million dollars would've made you ~$7M in about three months." "Why is this important? The CDS actually represents the structural risk in the United States corporate economy." "So when you see these spreads blowing out, this is actually a very important warning sign." "This is what was the canary in the coal mine for the Great Financial Crisis." "The tariff picture and the recession picture will get played out in this chart." "And I think it's something that folks can and should probably pay tremendous attention to."

Elon Musk just told you the job is dying. Most people heard a prediction. A few heard a prison door opening. Musk: “In less than 20 years, working at all will be optional.” That is not a policy suggestion. That is a countdown. For three hundred years, the human blueprint has been identical. You are born. You move to the city. You rent a box near the office. You trade your body and your hours for the right to exist. You do this until you are old. Then you stop. Then you die. The entire model runs on one assumption. That human labor is the only engine. AI and robotics delete that assumption. When the machine handles production at a scale no human crew can match, the forced migration to the city evaporates. The commute evaporates. The cubicle evaporates. The alarm clock that owns your nervous system for forty years evaporates. Musk: “I think it won’t be the case that you have to be in a city for a job.” The city was never a choice. It was a requirement disguised as ambition. You moved to the noise and the concrete and the $4,000 rent because the paycheck lived there. Remove the paycheck from the equation and the geography changes overnight. You can live in the mountains. On the coast. In the silence of a town most people have never heard of. You can wake up to nothing but trees and cold air and the complete absence of anyone else’s schedule. That is not a fantasy. That is the math resolving. But here is where most people break. They hear “work is optional” and they see emptiness. A species with nothing to do. Billions of people staring at screens until their minds dissolve. That fear tells you everything about what the system has already done to us. We confused labor with purpose. The grind with meaning. The paycheck with proof that we matter. Musk: “In the same way that you could grow your own vegetables in your garden.” The analogy is precise. You do not grow tomatoes because the economy demands it. You grow them because something in you wants to build a thing with your hands and watch it come alive. That instinct does not disappear when the job does. It gets unleashed. The artist who spent twenty years doing accounting finally paints. The engineer who always wanted to build something of her own finally builds it. The kid in a small town who could never afford to take the risk finally takes it. Work does not vanish. Forced work vanishes. What replaces it is creation without a gun to your head. This is the part that keeps me up at night. We are standing at the edge of the largest liberation in human history. And the loudest voices in the room are begging to stay in the cell. They want the commute. They want the boss. They want the structure that tells them when to eat and when to sleep and when they are allowed to think about their own life. Because freedom without a template is terrifying. The next twenty years will not test our technology. The technology is already ahead of schedule. They will test whether the species can handle what it has been asking for since the beginning of civilization. Time. Space. Silence. And the unbearable weight of choosing what your life actually means when no one is forcing the answer. That is not a prediction. That is the final exam. And nobody is ready.

I stood on the steps of the Supreme Court Monday . Donald Trump has done real things for MAHA. I believe that. But when the Department of Justice shows up to defend Bayer and Monsanto against the American people, against the health of our children, I have to say: you got this one wrong. Liability protection for corporations that poison people is not a conservative value. It is not a Republican value. It is not a Democratic value. It is not an American value. It is the opposite of a free market. It is the government putting its thumb on the scale for corporations that are losing in court because their products are causing cancer. Every child in this country deserves to be healthy. That is not a political statement. That is the only statement that matters. So in the words of the President himself: we are going to fight, fight.

Every trader thinks the hard part is predicting the future. an Argentine mathematician proved on a chalkboard in Rio that the opposite is true, and it is the reason most of them blow up. her field is stochastic programming. the idea is cold and simple: you will never know what tomorrow does, so stop guessing it and find the one decision that survives every version of it. that is position sizing. that is bankroll. that is the whole game. this is not chalk-dust theory. EDF and Petrobras handed her the real thing, decide now, pay for it when the future shows up, billions on the line. she solved it for them, then gave the method to a room full of strangers for nothing. go to the middle of the board. she takes a future no one can forecast, cuts it into scenarios, and lands on the single move that wins across all of them at once. there is no prediction anywhere in it. I put the practical aspects of this lecture into practice and developed a strategy that generates income, the results surprised me. 22 days. $100 → $24,600. 76% win rate. Sharpe 2.45.

A Stanford physicist walked into a lecture hall in gym shorts, with no notes, and spent 70 minutes explaining what happens inside a black hole. He is the man who spent 20 years arguing with Stephen Hawking about this exact question, and who eventually won. The man is Leonard Susskind, one of the founders of string theory. And the way he does it is what makes the video worth it. The argument that started it was simple enough to state at a dinner table. Hawking said that when something falls into a black hole, the information about it is destroyed forever. Susskind said the universe cannot forget. If it can, physics itself stops working. That disagreement ran for two decades. Hawking eventually conceded. The part that stays with you is what Susskind says happens to you at the edge. From your own point of view, you cross it and notice nothing unusual. From someone watching outside, you never cross at all. You slow, stretch, and burn at the boundary. Both descriptions are correct. Neither one is a trick. He explains why with no equations and almost no props, from memory, in front of a room where somebody in the front row is eating a sandwich. The comments spend more time on the shorts than the physics, which is its own kind of proof of confidence. Nothing that falls in is gone. The universe keeps a copy of everything, including you. 70 minutes. It is in the video.

Cameron Young is playing with a golf ball that would allegedly be compliant with the new roll back rules that will come into effect in a few years time. He was asked about it ahead of the PGA Championship and he says every player in the game is sacrificing distance for control, and he put it in play at the Wyndham last year which he won. “I think I put it in play the same reason that everybody else plays the ball that they play. I hit it during a ball test, one of the Titleist facilities probably close to two years ago and didn't know anything about it and just kind of say, hey, what's that one? Because I liked the flight. “Then as things progressed, I was able to test it last year at Wyndham, able to put that in play, and it's been there since. “Obviously there is no conforming list. I wasn't aware that it would have -- I suppose I read something that said it passed that test, but I wasn't aware of that until very recently. “So at no point was that a consideration. It was just really me trying to optimize my golf, and it's the ball that seems to work the best for me.” He then was asked whether he lost distance with it compared to other balls he’s tested: “Not particularly. I don't think any of us are out really here playing the ball that goes the farthest. I think you'd struggle to find a single person that's doing that. We're all sacrificing a certain amount of things that we feel are worth it, control with irons, control with wedges. For me, that's the biggest thing is being able to control spin, and this is the ball that does the best for me.” Finally he can as asked whether this ball goes further than the one he was using: “No, I hit very similar, yeah. It's much more -- the driver is kind of the easiest thing to deal with, I feel like. For me to get it where it needed to be, I had to just add a little bit of spin, and it kind of comes out at a perfectly playable range. “For me, the biggest thing, like I said, is the irons. This ball is easier to control with the irons. It doesn't spin as much, and it just allows me to be better with my distance control just because it's more consistent.” The golf ball rollback has been a hugely controversial subject but Cameron Young is currently using one that’s compliant and he is playing the best golf of his career. This gives the best idea yet on what impact, or lack of it, the new rules will actually have on the sport. PGA Championship

Anybody can get a pump. I can get one in my living room in four minutes with no equipment whatsoever. Twenty press-ups. A band I found in a drawer. Fifty bodyweight squats. Waving my arms about for ninety seconds. A set of thirty on anything, nowhere near failure, rested short enough to keep the blood where I put it. None of that is hard. None of that is a decision. The pump arrives whether you meant it or not, which is precisely why it cannot be evidence of anything. And it lives in the eight to twelve range, because that is where the weight is never frightening. You can chase a sensation all afternoon in there. Nothing you pick up is ever going to look back at you. Now go and get under something that might beat you. There is no hiding on a heavy set of five. You cannot half-do it. You cannot drift through it thinking about your afternoon. The weight either moves or it sits there in front of everybody. That is why eight to twelve has survived fifty years of scrutiny it never earned. It is the widest band of weight you can lift while remaining completely unaccountable. Heavy enough to feel like effort. Light enough that nothing is ever on the line. A rep range you can occupy for a decade without once finding out what you are capable of, and leave every session swollen, sweating and entirely convinced. Heavy training keeps a record. That is the objection to it, and nobody will ever say so out loud. Take a set of five to within a rep of failure and you will find out exactly what you are worth, in kilos, before you leave the building. Most people would rather not.

1/3 Message: "I found love thanks to your participation in the show. Brazil–France. It was the most beautiful encounter of my life. We each followed you from our own country, in our respective time zones, and then it all became reality. We visited each other's countries, our relationship was perfect, but in the end distance got the better of our love story. We'll always cherish our most beautiful memories. It's incredible to think that your existence has been the beginning of so many stories. So... thank you, Zeudi." Zeudi: "First of all, that's such a sweet message. She's thanking me for a relationship that began, and even ended, that, in a way, I helped bring about. But she's still grateful for having experienced such a beautiful love story and all those emotions. So she's grateful to life for bringing her path together with the path of the girl she was with. And that's a really beautiful thing. It's lovely that she's grateful to me in some way, even though I didn't actually do anything, except maybe, unintentionally, put them on the same path, acting as an unconscious go-between. And I think that's a beautiful thing. I'm sorry that, unfortunately, the two of you broke up because of the distance. I mean, you really weren't living close to each other at all, so I understand. Sometimes, when you're in a long-distance relationship, especially in my case, with so many work commitments and everything else going on in your own country, it can be really difficult to coordinate your life with the life of the person you're with. Because the other person has the same situation too: their own life, their own commitments, in another country. So trying to weave your lives together isn't easy. Still, where there's a will, there's a way. In this case, though, the distance was obviously much greater—Brazil and France—and that's not easy. But honestly, I don't think it was only the distance. That's how I see it. Yes, distance plays a part, but if two people really want to make it work, they can. I've always believed that. Distance isn't a problem if there's already deep love, a strong desire to make it work, and the courage to truly live life. In my opinion, it all depends on how much that person means to you. I mean, what priority you give to love in your life. But one thing is important: your first priority should always be yourself. Then, after that, comes the other person. Because I believe that putting yourself first is what matters most. Distance isn't really a problem if there are genuinely good intentions and a sincere desire to make things work. I always say that a relationship isn't built on promises-it's built on what comes before them. I can't promise you anything, but I can be honest with you about my life, the circumstances I'm living in, what life is offering me right now, where I live, and the path I've chosen. And if our paths happen to meet despite those realities, then that's wonderful, provided the feelings are there too. If, at some point, our paths begin to drift apart, because anything can happen in life, you can never say never, then maybe it simply means there wasn't quite enough desire to stay together. At least, that's how I see it. Yes, distance is a challenge, especially when you're talking about Brazil and France, that's true. But it's not everything. Just think about people who went to war in the past, or even today, probably, they would only see the person they loved again after a very, very long time, and yet that bond was still there. So love is certainly something you build over time, but I also think you have to have genuine feelings. Love is fifty-fifty: it's both what you feel and what you build together with the other person. In my opinion, distance wasn't the main reason the two of you broke up. That's what I think, anyway. Of course, I don't want to imply anything or make assumptions, but... #zeudiners

It's incredible to think that your existence has been the beginning of so many stories. So... thank you, Zeudi." Zeudi: "First of all, that's such a sweet message. She's thanking me for a relationship that began, and even ended, that, in a way, I helped bring about. But she's still grateful for having experienced such a beautiful love story and all those emotions. So she's grateful to life for bringing her path together with the path of the girl she was with. And that's a really beautiful thing. It's lovely that she's grateful to me in some way, even though I didn't actually do anything, except maybe, unintentionally, put them on the same path, acting as an unconscious go-between. And I think that's a beautiful thing. I'm sorry that, unfortunately, the two of you broke up because of the distance. I mean, you really weren't living close to each other at all, so I understand. Sometimes, when you're in a long-distance relationship, especially in my case, with so many work commitments and everything else going on in your own country, it can be really difficult to coordinate your life with the life of the person you're with. Because the other person has the same situation too: their own life, their own commitments, in another country. So trying to weave your lives together isn't easy. Still, where there's a will, there's a way. In this case, though, the distance was obviously much greater—Brazil and France—and that's not easy. But honestly, I don't think it was only the distance. That's how I see it. Yes, distance plays a part, but if two people really want to make it work, they can. I've always believed that. Distance isn't a problem if there's already deep love, a strong desire to make it work, and the courage to truly live life. In my opinion, it all depends on how much that person means to you. I mean, what priority you give to love in your life. But one thing is important: your first priority should always be yourself. Then, after that, comes the other person. Because I believe that putting yourself first is what matters most. Distance isn't really a problem if there are genuinely good intentions and a sincere desire to make things work. I always say that a relationship isn't built on promises-it's built on what comes before them. I can't promise you anything, but I can be honest with you about my life, the circumstances I'm living in, what life is offering me right now, where I live, and the path I've chosen. And if our paths happen to meet despite those realities, then that's wonderful, provided the feelings are there too. If, at some point, our paths begin to drift apart, because anything can happen in life, you can never say never, then maybe it simply means there wasn't quite enough desire to stay together. At least, that's how I see it. Yes, distance is a challenge, especially when you're talking about Brazil and France, that's true. But it's not everything. Just think about people who went to war in the past, or even today, probably, they would only see the person they loved again after a very, very long time, and yet that bond was still there. So love is certainly something you build over time, but I also think you have to have genuine feelings. Love is fifty-fifty: it's both what you feel and what you build together with the other person. In my opinion, distance wasn't the main reason the two of you broke up. That's what I think, anyway. Of course, I don't want to imply anything or make assumptions, but... #zeudiners

"The one thing that's going to be truly future proof is judgment. What is the biggest challenge when you have a thousand AI engineers writing code? AI slop. In an era when you can do everything, the question is which of these things matter. On the engineer side, it is evaluating the code. Which of this code is even valuable? You can have AI engineers writing beautiful code that could be wrong, that could have bugs in it, that could be vulnerable. Someone needs to review it. Make sure to have a human review at some point, especially critical code that is in the core of your system. On the product side is judgment around what needs to be built and evaluating. And similarly in design, you have to have judgment around, does it make sense in the broader design system. I think this judgment is the number one thing that humans are going to bring in an era of infinite productivity."
