Look man, I’ve got a MMO that I’m working on that’s set in 2014 where everyone is a programmer in SV (might call it World of Legacy). It’s a period piece. I NEED as much blog training data of this type so that my NPCs can talk in a historically accurate way (god bless Medium.com, a historical treasure trove of a bygone medieval era).

It’s gonna be a living breathing world, you see. You’re going to be like “omg, this game even accurately captured the blog posts, woah”.

Edit:

This whole blogging-about-cloud-AI genre is just weird and irresponsible now)

I sincerely never considered it was a whole genre.

The perfect world was a dream that your primitive cerebrum kept trying to wake up from. Which is why the Matrix was redesigned to this: the peak of your civilization. I say your civilization, because as soon as we started thinking for you it really became our civilization, but the peak of your civilization was an MMO where everyone is a programmer in SV.

I … I… don't want to play this, thanks ;-)

It’s the only way you’ll ever be able to pretend to be a programmer again though.

Oh god, I just realised this really is the logical parallel to all those TV crime dramas set in the early 1900s.

It’ll be the programmers version of those civil war reenactments.

The two sides would be the strongly typed union and the duck typed heretics of the confederacy.

Leet code competitions will be as relevant as sailing regattas.

so far, i just keep writing by hand and keep getting paid for it. weird.

I'm pretty sure there's an element of sarcasm here, but if this game is real, it does sound super promising.
