Sklime is now available on PlayStation®5 consoles! To celebrate I made a new video for my youtube channel:

I have added community leaderboards to my osu! gamemode!
Additionally, I made an auto updater gamemode which will keep my gamemodes updated automatically with just a restart of the game - no more manually copying dlls needed github.com/zanthous/zankai-o…

I had a similar reaction. Everyone should applaud performance improvements, but gauge against the “speed of light”, not just a sloppy competitor. If you are measuring in seconds, you may have already anchored yourself incorrectly.
Structure the UI so you can put locally cached media up just a few vblanks after the process launches.
Structure the server so it can return everything necessary for the dynamic UI in one single query that was kicked off in parallel with the Gfx API initialization, branching to a modern transport protocol for large media files.
You should be able to double click on the launcher and have it responsive before your muscle memory can slam the pointer to a location to click on.
This is hilarious and awesome.
Awesome because this has annoyed millions of peoples for years.
Hilarious because WHY DOES IT TAKE 5 SECONDS TO SHOW A MENU OF GAMES?!
Steam takes 10 SECONDS?!
Do you realize how much time that is for a CPU with a modern internet connection? Am I crazy!? What am I missing?
I made a new gamemode for osu! lazer for controllers:

Pasting long text has been broken on (wsl) vscode codex extension for months and I finally gave up and had codex force patch & disable the thing that makes it attach the text instead of putting it in the chat directly and it works. Windows wsl codex is so broken in vscode
Steam needs more sound effects. Reusing the achievement sound for download complete/battery low is crazy. You're supposed to keep that sound feeling special for achievements
ARC-AGI-3 scoring improvements
Since previewing ARC-AGI-3, nearly one million scorecards have been submitted on public environments. That real-world data helps us stress-test and harden our scoring approach
Based on what we’ve observed, we’re announcing two updates to ARC-AGI-3 scoring:
1. The per-level baseline is now less sensitive to outlier performances, reducing the impact of luck on individual levels
A single unusually efficient human run no longer defines the baseline for ARC-AGI-3 scoring. Rather the baseline now reflects more typical human play. Technical change: the human baseline which normalizes scores moves from 2nd-best player to median player per level
2. A single subpar level no longer disproportionately drags down an overall score
A test taker who generalizes well across an entire environment is no longer penalized by a single, sub-par, level. Technical change: per-level score cap increases from 100% to 115%
For a view of how action efficiency translates into scores, see how the 11 human players who played re86 during testing

when the risks of AI denialism go from "gary marcus gets laughed at on Twitter" to "some degree of institutional ignorance around foundational security systems breaking" then you have an imperative to look at the denialism dead in the eye and say "you're going to get people hurt"

It's not the hard games we are lacking its the hard game gamers. It does seem like younger generations these days have power crept into being way better at video games because of how ubiquitous they are now which helps
