we鈥檝e played trickerion a few times now, the last time with the dark alley rules. it鈥檚 a good game, balancing strategic planning with enough direct player conflict to be interesting. most information is public knowledge, and, aside from a few dice rolls, there isn鈥檛 much left purely to chance.
to win you need to carefully optimize your possible plays every round, and if there鈥檚 a weakness, it鈥檚 the number of possibilities and the time it takes to carefully weigh them, especially when playing with the dark alley. consider playing with a turn timer.

i want to love betrayal but i don鈥檛. the rules require a lot of interpretation and it鈥檚 just impossible to play as a board game noob.

this is my first attempt at making kimchi.
as a kid, i lived in a very small town in montana, but next door to a korean family. i remember two foods: seaweed and kimchi. i can't remember if i liked them then (probably not) but i think they're amazing now.

i鈥檓 patiently working my way toward a 1.0 release of the ktistec server. the 1.0 release must have a stable database schema鈥攖hat鈥檚 the one hard requirement. in terms of features, it鈥檚 close now. i鈥檓 adding internal metrics for the power user and block lists. then it ships!

and commits eb740e1 through 091a1b1 implement a materialized timeline. it replaces a large and complex query for dynamically generating the timeline from activities. the query worked well enough but was slow鈥攐ver 200ms for a single page in a timeline containing over 4000 objects. the replacement is 3x better, but still builds a b-tree to get the sorted results. the solution, i suspect, is to聽 remove the final two joins, at which point the existing index on created_at will be used to get the sorted rows. to do that, i'll need to remove deleted actors and objects when they are deleted...
