    Reading Fahrenheit 451, a dystopian novel in which all books are banned and remaining ones actively hunted down and burned. Found the premise a bit far fetched yesterday but today I read this: https://novaramedia.com/2026/07/29/ai-firms-are-buying-up-old-books-then-scanning-and-destroying-them/

    Also at X2026, a small group of 4 released the #Commodore64 demo &amp;quot;Hexed&amp;quot;. We ended up 4th place, which is pretty good for such a small team. Soundtrack by yours truly. https://micheldebree.nl/posts/hexed/ #chiptune #c64 #sid8580 #demoscene

    #LLM #agenticai Struggling constantly with the entertaining AI “‘magic” vs the skepticism about the costs vs real life benefits. Have to keep reminding myself that a magician producing a rabbit from a hat is not going to solve animal extinction, for example.

    @pixelambacht Looking forward to watching this. Especially the nice dithering made me think this is some clever compression in space and time of an animation. Looks so good. edit: I couldn&#39;t wait. Such a clear explanation about graphic modes and their limitations and how to get around them. Absolute genius.
