- A calm Saturday morning
Some days, too seldom, it happens. A calm Saturday morning. I sit down in the armchair, serve myself a second cup of coffee and quietly browse, not scroll, the internet. I find something to read, I might actually blog a few things as well.
- Cyberpunk
My most recent listen, after The Sandman: Act III, is William Gibson’s ”Neuromancer”. It’s a novel that I’ve read a couple of times before, but that before is now the distant past. It’s definitely an important part of my science fiction…
- Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

- In the world of Pluribus, creative work is a monumental event
A quick thought on Pluribus. From what I understand it’s been conceived over many years, meaning it was not originally intended to be about generative AI. However it most certainly became partially about that. One scene that feels like a…
- A new hobby
I’ve been thinking about getting into video game making as a hobby for quite a while now and during winter break I finally gave myself some time to get into the basics. While Ebbe was playing with one of his friends in a ”play land” (not…
