Post from Matt Turnbull: These are really challenging times, and if you’re navigating a layoff or even quietly preparing for one, you’re not alone and you don’t have to go it alone. I know these types of tools engender strong feelings in people, but I'd be remiss in not trying to offer the best advice I can under the circumstances. I’ve been experimenting with ways to use LLM AI tools (like ChatGPT or Copilot) to help reduce the emotional and cognitive load that comes with job loss. Here are some prompt ideas and use cases that might help if you're feeling overwhelmed: Career Planning Prompts: “Act as a career coach. I’ve been laid off from a [role] in the game industry. Help me build a 30-day plan to regroup, research new roles, and start applying without burning out.” “What kinds of game industry jobs could I pivot to with experience in [Production/Narrative/LiveOps/etc.]?” Resume & LinkedIn Help “Here’s my current resume. Give me three tailored versions: one for AAA, one for platform/publishing roles, and one for startup/small studio leadership.” “Rewrite this resume bullet to highlight impact and metrics.” “Draft a new LinkedIn ‘About Me’ section that focuses on my leadership style, shipped titles, and vision for game development.” Networking & Outreach “Draft a friendly message I can send to old coworkers letting them know I’m exploring new opportunities.” “Write a warm intro message for reaching out to someone at [studio name] about a job posting.” Emotional Clarity & Confidence “I’m struggling with imposter syndrome after being laid off. Can you help me reframe this experience in a way that reminds me what I’m good at?” No AI tool is a replacement for your voice or your lived experience. But at a time when mental energy is scarce, these tools can help get you unstuck faster, calmer, and with more clarity. If this helps, feel free to share with others in your network. Stay kind, stay smart, stay connected.

Matt Turnbull, Executive Producer at Xbox Game Studios Publishing - after the Microsoft layoffs - suggesting on Linkedin that may maybe people who have been let go should turn to AI for help. He seriously thought posting this would be a good idea.

I'm a tech writer on a team of four, and the team manager and the other senior writer are the only ones who use it. I have to edit their work much more heavily than the junior writers'. It's embarrassing for them, truly. And for me and the company, as they both have higher salaries than me

this technology that i cant even get my own employees to use without literally threatening them is definitely going to be profitable one day

Containerd running in Windows on Arm

WINDOWS SERVER 2025 CONTAINER RUNNING IN WINDOWS ON ARM

Zoomed in command line showing the contents of "systeminfo" showing Windows Server 2025 Datacenter. Another command line showing Windows 11 is below it.

Well..... I remembered that I compiled containerd for arm64 a while ago and just synced the latest main into my fork this past weekend.

Paired with the ltsc-2025-arm64 image.... I managed to... do something

And....

AND.......
ANNNND...

Windows Server 2025 Container running on #arm64 baby!

great job Gavin

I'll still be reachable over:

- Discord for select commitments (including Hack Different moderation needs)
- email (never_released@threedots.ovh notably)
- Teams (MS) : first initial + my last name (guest)
- Signal: someone.20 (unlikely to reply unless urgent or known irl)

You know, am completely useless overall and things haven't been getting much better. I have been on sick leave since January by now (but with issues starting long before)

so goodbye I guess. Going to pause social media activity with apps uninstalled for the usual suspects

hello

How many folks do I know (or 2nd/3rd degree away) that are:

* In Berlin
* Into electronics
* Maaaaybe into Rust

I've always thought it would be cool to do some kind of thing with long range radio stuff, think street pass but with Lora, but never knew if I could find enough folks to make it fun

It's time to say it again:

May you live in interesting times.

Recently I came across this treatise by Stephen Dolan

A decade happened this year. Still 3 more weeks.

So what's remaining in the 2024 bingo?

May you live in interesting times.

That it uses RVV is an internal implementation detail because you're not really going to run 3p code on those

32-bit RISC-V isn't that alive for anything remotely big tbh

Alright, it's time to say it again today:

May you live in interesting times.

As it happened again I have a fun fact to share:

The PDF reader in the Office app on Android has built-in ads.

Even if you have an @Microsoft 365 subscription, ads *do* sometimes show up.

That's utterly insane. That particular ad I got was powered by Taboola under the hood.

Imagine if Google starts banning individual users for using ad blockers on YouTube. As in banning their Google account outright for violation of ToS, including Gmail.

TIL that there's a D3D12 implementation with only SM5.1 in the wild
Parallels _does_ implement D3D12 for Windows VMs. But it's FL11_1 with SM5.1

> 4.7 This software enables the execution of intellectual property owned by Arm Limited. You agree that your use of the software, that allows execution of ARM Instruction Set Architecture (“ISA”) compliant executables for application development

Apropos of nothing: would you mind if Google Chrome gets sold to Taboola?

mean to not put a codename in there. apple embarked on a quest to deliberately remove cpu codenames from all their sw lol since a while
it's a bit mean but... well played. that crackdown has been quite successful imo
