It’s pretty incredible to see how nostalgic gamers are for the Xbox 360 lately as it hit the twenty-year milestone but it does show just how much of an impact it had on people back then… and perhaps even increases the contrast between its success and the stumble […]
It’s been a bit quiet on the site front of late and much of that has had to do with an unexpected change in circumstances after a contract fell through… the joys of being a developer in time when management thinks AI can solve everything but find out […]
It’s been a year of change here. Making a fresh start in a new role has been taking a lot of my time and some adjustments too after years of dealing with workplace toxicity but it’s also let me learn what not to do. It’s much easier to […]
