Bitcoin, The Final Chapter - Live Premiere TODAY 12:00 UTC - Live Analysis of Bitcoin's Death! teapawt.org/i/broadcasts/2EmPjvNlP…

#BitcoinBullRun - the infinite runner game, that is - just got some visual improvements - see the Before and After screenshots here... Watch for the YouTube video this weekend, where I'll go into the vibe-coding I did to make the improvements. ("Make it mor gud" didn't really cut it) v1.1 also has a whole bunch of other new features and topical "satire" (as I like to call it 🙄) Full list of improvements below! There'll be a v1.2 next week with whole new levels, gameplay modes, and still more improvements. The #1 goal is to keep the game FUN, of course. Play the game - works well on phones in full-screen: mafftopia.com/bitcoin-bull-r… (Also, there's no sign-up or (shudder) payment required, just turn up and play!) btw this isn't EVERYTHING that went into 1.1, but here are the highlights: * Tarmac roads with surface detail in NY Financial District, Pamplona and Dubai * Puddles with reflections * Camera widens with speed and banks into bends * A boost vignette at the screen edges * Soft shade at the foot of buildings, walls and cars * Neon brightened by the sky, with a slow pulse, and glowing pickups * Bloom on the high quality tier * Baked ambient occlusion on the props in each level * Shadows on the ground under the bull, people and cars. * A sun shadow for the bull on the high quality tier * Speed lines fade as the camera nears them * Objects like the Ramen power-ups fade to transparent so they don't block the camera view * Sun direction set for each level's sky * Textures stay sharp when seen at an angle * Reflections taken from the sky picture * A rim light on the bull * Dust from the hooves: stride puffs, landing dust and the skid * Sparks and debris on impacts, with knocked people bursting debris in their own colours * Particles drifting in each level's air, with flyers and dollar bills in NY, confetti in Pamplona, etc * Use the ` key to grab an instant screenshot And performance - three quality tiers, high, medium and low, which the game steps down through when frames stutter or drop below 30 fps. #Bitcoin #SubwaySurfers

What's the problem with AI vibe coding? Mission critical systems, that's the problem. Coding with Claude Code or Codex gets you thousands of unit tests that all turn green, but the app can still break on the "rainy day" paths. Trouble is, the rainy day paths are often like 90% of the system. And with the speed that agents churn out "complete" and seriously impressive systems, it's too easy to forget about them. In this interview with @dougrosenbergX, my co-author of decades past, we deep-dive into what can be done about it. youtube.com/watch?v=BecpF_fn… Enter the #SoftwareEngineering world. #MBSE #UseCases #SysML @incose_org
