Valve posted a statement on the New York lootbox lawsuit
Valve have been the target of multiple lawsuits lately, and now they've put up an explainer update on their position with the New York lootbox lawsuit.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
NY's suit looks like a shakedown. At the same time any sports viewing gives you an eyefull of gambling stats/sites, polymarket is somehow legal, the NYSE itself will allow an algorithm to trade a bundled derivative with nominal human involvement but sure put a tamp on people spending a couple bucks to get a game skin.
Pay the right lobbyist & all of a sudden anything looks legitimate, maybe valve is playing that game wrong.

It's not that we don't know a better world is possible.

Abortion bans reshaped reproductive health, and now the rental market
"The paper is part of a growing body of research showing how abortion bans are reshaping communities. Other studies have linked abortion bans to higher rates of poverty and higher property crime rates, and found that they may be driving young people to leave their home states. Surveys have shown that aspiring doctors โ especially those training to OBGYNs โ are less likely to choose residencies in states with abortion bans...
"But the paperโs findings suggest access to reproductive health care is influencing a meaningful share of people in the United States regarding where they want to live โ especially renters, who have more mobility than homeowners. Rental prices declined more as time progressed, which suggests the trend may continue as long as statesโ approaches to abortion continue to diverge."
In post-Dobbs era, abortion bans reshape the rental market
New research found that abortion bans resulted in lower rental prices and higher vacancies.Shefali Luthra (19th News)

Catlang programming language idea: Rejoice
It's like Joy, but instead of a stack, it's a multiset, and transformations are local rewriting rules.
The program state is a bag of unordered things, transformations are represented as fractions where the denominator indicates things to remove from the bag, and the numerator, things to add. Evaluation consists of applying fractions from left to right, each to exhaustion, until the bag stabilizes.

Loved the depictions of the network family and the way the main character internalizes the data streams they use to make decisions. An optimistic vision of the future that highlights that issues we're working on now will still be relevant a hundred years from now. I totally fell for Rhamnetin too! Pleased to read the depictions of first contact from the physically intimate point of view.
