probably my most deeply-held belief: it is not possible for a slide deck to be both (1) a good presentation aide; and (2) a standalone document that can be read and understood in isolation.

I’m Slow β€” LocalThunk Hello people, long time no chat! I have some unfortunate news: The promised 2025 Balatro 1.1 update isn’t going to come out in 2025. I know, I announced that it would, but it has become clear now th...

I wanted to give an update on the Balatro 1.1 release date:

localthunk.com/blog/im-slow

TL;DR is that it will not be coming out in 2025, it is still coming out for sure, and I'm sorry. The new timeline is "it's done when it's done"

Please read the blog post for more details

Reflecting On A Decade Of Content Creation | Android Essence Simplified Android Development

I wrote something small to celebrate an entire decade since my first blog post. So much of my life has changed since then, and I still have so many ideas for more I can do, but it's nice to just sit and reflect on ten years.

I won a $10 steam gift card. Do I get Balatro for PC so I can play multiplayer mods, or are there other low budget, high quality games I should look into? Thinking in the $10-20 range.

We fully automated the game, and we hit a top 100 score!

Going back to Android streams next week, but we'll revisit this some time to see if we can move further up the leaderboard.

AI promised efficiency. Instead, it’s making us work harder. AI tools were supposed to free up our timeβ€”but they’re increasing our cognitive load and making us less productive. Here’s what’s really happening (and how to use them without burning out).

AI was supposed to make us more efficient.

Instead, it’s fragmenting our workflows, bloating our calendars, and burning out high performers.

I wrote about the false promise of AI productivity and why we’re actually working harder than ever:
