In this episode of the Free Thought Project podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with independent journalist 7sees, whose unique investigative style has been gaining serious attention. Known for his striking use of the Obsidian platform to create intricate “idea webs,” 7sees has developed a method of reporting that helps people connect the dots on everything from geopolitics to the technocratic rise of AI surveillance. We kick off by exploring Palantir and the tentacles it has spread throughout the world. We then dive into his process: why he chose Obsidian, how it shapes his journalism, and why visualization is such a powerful tool for truth-seeking. From there, we dive deep into money and control systems and the end game of the technocrats. While some see cryptocurrency as the solution, 7sees argues both fiat and mainstream crypto are compromised — a point that leads us to discuss privacy tools like Zano and the broader fight for financial freedom. The conversation winds through dark but necessary territory: the surveillance state, the creeping technocracy, and how censorship and financial control are converging. Even when our perspectives diverge — like on barter as a solution — the discussion sparks new ways of thinking about how to resist authoritarian creep. We wrap with a challenge: if the technocratic police state is inevitable, what can we do to stave it off? And if we can't stop it, how do we survive and escape? This is a thought-provoking and raw episode with one of the most unique voices in independent media.

Kan Grounded 2 gøre sig fortjent til 2-tallet?Grounded 2 er Obsidian og Eidos Montréal's opfølger til det populære survival eventyr, hvor spillerne igen bliver skruet ned til myrestørrelse. Historien udspiller sig nu i Brookhollow Park, et kæmpestort område fyldt med edderkopper, plasticlegetøj og mystiske teknologiske hemmeligheder.Man vender tilbage som de formindskede unger fra etteren, men med mulighed for at tæmme og ride på insekter, bygge endnu vildere baser og grave endnu dybere i konspirationerne om hvorfor man overhovedet er blevet skrumpet.Spørgsmålet er om et større univers, farligere fjender og flere muligheder kan løfte Grounded 2 til den ultimative miniature survival oplevelse, eller om spillet bare er endnu et early access projekt, der læner sig for meget op ad en gimmick.I episoden medvirker Camilla “Cambonano”, Morten Vilstrup Pedersen, Morten Urup og Daniel Møgelhøj.Tusind tak fordi du lytter med.

Obsidian is a note-taking and productivity app that occupies the same "second brain" space as competitors like Notion — but in a lot of ways, it's also startlingly different. Obsidian's files are Markdown-based, stored locally on your own devices, and completely free to use. Steph Ango, the CEO, is also different in a lot of ways: He's not an Obsidian founder, but instead came to the role from being basically a member of the fan development community. His take on software, productivity, and business is refreshingly old-fashioned in a lot of good ways, while he's also leading a very 21st century startup. Read the full transcript on The Verge.

It seems everyone from governments to giant companies to random grassroots groups are suddenly gunning for video game censorship.

Join us this week for The Sunbearer Trials by Aiden Thomas. As a jade semidios, Teo planned to spend the Sunbearer trials with his best friend Niya, touring new towns and having fun. The last thing expected was to be selected by Sol as a competitor, but Sol deemed Teo and 9 other semidioses worthy of entering the trials that will keep away the Obsidian gods for another decade. For the first time in many years two Jade demigods will compete with 8 Golds, who have been training for years for the trials. The odds are stacked again Teo and his fellow Jade, Xio. Will they make it out alive?
To be apathetic to something is to experience a lack of feeling or emotion in response to an event. For the Dukes, it's the word of the show. Xbox has been mismanaged for an entire generation and it has come at the cost of losing world class talents alongside studios. It was just in 2024 that we lost Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, Roundhouse Studios, and Alpha Dog Games. There was also the formidable Toys For Bob that went independent. That alone was more than enough to last us a generation, but today we learned that Xbox has closed down the studio they started back in 2018: The Initiative. Alongside that, Rare's Everwild has been canceled on top of a new IP from Zenimax Online Studios. There's no other way to slice it. For Xbox to improve, leadership must be held accountable. The question is if they ever will and given how situations at teams like Bungie have gone down, we expect a meek, weak willed level of accountability to the bloodbath at Microsoft this week. Indeed, much of the frustration is built off the back of constant, mind-numbing, inconsistent messaging. It was only in February that CEO of Microsoft Gaming, Phil Spencer, said Everwild was really shaping up. It was canceled today. With such wishy-washy messaging to their fans, the brand is at a point where no one can believe anything they say. Sure, a partnership with AMD to do next-generation consoles was announced within the last month. How can we trust that? It's the lowest level of trust asked of a consumer that you can believe an announcement when you see it. Instead, the only message we're left with is that if you're not a mega-hit in the making, Xbox wants to have no part of you. What does this say to teams like Compulsion and Ninja Theory or larger developers like Obsidian that like to split off in pursuit of smaller titles? It's amusing that Xbox has done this in the name of creating a sustainable business yet their methods and approach to making games is arguably the least sustainable thing we've seen. They're all in on a subscription service while putting tens of millions of dollars into making games. How it'll all shake up will be interesting to watch, but many of us know how this story will end.

In this episode of Building Better Developers, hosts Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche explore how to improve team collaboration in software development through the lens of AI-driven insights. Whether you're a solo developer, part of a tight-knit team, or scaling across departments, collaboration remains the backbone of efficiency and success. What Does Collaboration Mean in Development? AI kicked off the discussion with a powerful insight: define “efficiency” in context. But more importantly, it highlighted that collaboration fuels efficiency, not just working faster, but working better. Effective collaboration avoids: Redundant work Misunderstood requirements Tech debt and burnout Rob emphasized that a productive team isn't rushing through tasks but solving the correct problems—together—on the first try. Collaboration Strategies for Solo Developers Even solo developers need structured collaboration between their tools, their future selves, and their automation stack. Top collaboration tips for independent devs: Use opinionated frameworks like Next.js or Rails to minimize decision fatigue. Automate repetitive tasks early to save time in the long run. Commit code regularly with meaningful messages. Document workflows using Notion, Obsidian, or Jira—even if you're the only one using them. Containerize development environments for repeatability and rapid setup. “Solo doesn't mean siloed. Collaborate with your tools, your past decisions, and future goals.” Enhancing Collaboration in Small Development Teams For teams of 2–10 developers, Rob and Michael discussed how tight feedback loops and structured communication are essential to avoid chaos. Recommended practices for small team collaboration: Short, focused daily standups Shared development environments Lightweight Agile or Kanban boards Early investment in CI/CD pipelines Use of pair programming or mob programming for knowledge sharing Michael emphasized Agile's power in synchronizing team efforts, avoiding duplicated work, and solving problems more efficiently as a unit. “Agile helps teams collaborate—not just communicate. It keeps everyone moving in the same direction.” Solving Common Bottlenecks Together AI highlighted four universal collaboration pain points and solutions: Slow Code Reviews - Use SLAs and rotate reviewers Unclear Requirements - Kick off with 15-minute clarification huddles Testing Paralysis - Focus on integration tests and avoid overtesting Context Switching - Block dedicated focus hours Michael zeroed in on testing paralysis, especially in early-stage projects, where developers are too busy scaffolding to write tests. Without collaboration on testing plans, critical issues may be overlooked until it is too late. Rob addressed context switching, warning against excessive meetings that fragment developer flow. Leads should shield devs from distraction by delivering distilled, actionable feedback. Final Thoughts on Collaborative Development As teams grow, minor issues scale fast, and so do inefficiencies. Tools, meetings, workflows, and expectations must all scale intentionally. Rob reminded leaders to summarize and distill information before passing it to their teams and to make clever use of tools like AI, recordings, and summaries to keep everyone aligned without wasting time. “If you're building better developers, you're also building better collaborators.” Take Action: Build Collaboration Into Your Workflow Reassess your standups and review cycles Empower solo devs with documentation and CI/CD Streamline onboarding with containers Test early, test together Protect team focus time Stay Connected: Join the Developreneur Community We invite you to join our community and share your coding journey with us.

The fallout of any Xbox showcase is always our favorite episodes to record as a duo! It gets us all involved and allows to pick with greater detail at whatever is on the community's mind as consuming so many trailers. Well, there's mostly one thing on Xbox fan's minds at the moment and it's if Outer Worlds 2 should be the second ever $80 game. There's no doubt about it that there are more to come, but should Call Of Duty have taken the fall? Is this price tag going to prevent The Outer Worlds 2 from reaching its peak popularity? We have many thoughts on this touchy subject, but also on the future of Windows combining itself with Xbox. With Xbox Play Anywhere, things are changing. However, many fans are noticing that most of their library CAN'T play anywhere. Will Xbox ameliorate this and, if so, how quickly? Plus more on Cog's incredible Shinobi story, MindsEye first impressions, the future of Halo's story as a multi-platform title, when we'll get Persona 6, and plenty more!

Its that magical time of year, when all the games are announced, and the big 3 come together! I'm talking about, wait, no, E3 is gone, but its spirit lives on, in this disjointed days of virtual press conferences. Xbox had their Games Showcase and didn't show any of the tentpoles, Summer Games Fest knocked it out of the park with Resident Evil 9, and IGN Live tried to fill in some gaps. Plus, The Phoenician Scheme, Predator Killer of Killers, and Ballerina from the World of John Wick all get reviewed.
Reformed Brotherhood | Sound Doctrine, Systematic Theology, and Brotherly Love
In this episode of The Reformed Brotherhood, Tony Arsenal takes listeners on a deep dive into the art and purpose of effective note-taking, particularly within the context of Christian living and theological study. With Jesse absent for this episode, Tony explores practical techniques to help Christians retain, process, and apply what they read, whether it be from Scripture, theological works, or even secular writings. Highlighting his own personal process, Tony emphasizes the importance of reading with intention and grounding all study in the ultimate goal of glorifying God and enjoying Him forever. The episode details Tony's structured note-taking process, which includes reading with a clear purpose, capturing highlights, organizing thoughts systematically, and reviewing and reusing notes for practical outcomes. He emphasizes the importance of using tools that work for the individual, whether digital platforms like Obsidian markdown or analog methods like commonplace books. The central theme throughout is that note-taking is not just about acquiring knowledge, but about using that knowledge to reflect God's glory in everyday life. Tony also ties the practice of note-taking to theological principles, referencing the Westminster Catechism's teaching that every action should aim to glorify God. He challenges listeners to examine their own study habits and consider how they can better use what they learn to serve their families, churches, and communities. Whether through teaching Sunday school, sharing the faith with children, or preparing sermons, the episode demonstrates how intentional note-taking can enhance spiritual growth and equip believers for ministry. Key Points: The Purpose of Note-Taking: Note-taking is not an end in itself but a means to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. It helps Christians reflect on and apply what they learn in practical ways. Tony's Note-Taking Process: A step-by-step guide that includes reading with intention, highlighting key insights, organizing notes with tags, and reviewing them regularly for reuse. Tools and Techniques: Recommendations for using tools like Obsidian markdown or analog methods, emphasizing flexibility and personalization in developing a system that works. Practical Applications: The importance of using notes for teaching, sermon preparation, family devotions, and theological discussions, making knowledge actionable and impactful. Theological Foundations: Connecting note-taking to the broader Christian life, including meditating on Scripture and theological works as a means of sanctification. Questions for Reflection: How does your current note-taking process help you retain and apply what you read? In what ways can you ensure that your study habits glorify God and enhance your enjoyment of Him? What tools or methods could you adopt to make your note-taking more effective and organized? How can you use what you learn to serve your church, family, or community more effectively? What intentions or goals should you set before starting your next reading or study session?

As we announced last week, today we're diving headfirst into Knights of the Old Republic II, Obsidian's follow-up to the BioWare game that dug into the ancient history of our favorite galaxy far, far away. (Though before we dig into that, we talk more about that announcement from last week to try to share some of our thoughts and process about getting where we got.) Because KOTOR II is a pretty big meal, we took our time today to set the table. We dig into our characters, the state of the galaxy after KOTOR II, the mods we used, and the various technical fixes we had to adjust for. If you're playing along with us on a device that can run mods, well here's that mod list (along with additional instructions) for you. (That last sentence had a link in it. If your podcatcher doesn't see one, try going to our site directly.) Finally, another little announcement. We know that many folks don't have time to play through all of KOTOR II along with us. To help those of y'all who nevertheless want to get a sense of the game, Austin will be uploading an episode-by-episode Let's Play to the official AMCA YouTube Channel. Here's the first episode! (That was also a link.) Next Time: Peragus Support the show by going to Patreon.com/civilized!
