My links are haphazard – but that shouldn’t get in the way of reading.

• The 14 Deadly Sins of Graphical Adventure Design.
• makefiletutorial.com.  Unfortunately probably gmake-specific, but still a good idea.  (via)
• Postmortem of an outage caused while rebooting the (EVE Online) universe.  (also via)
• There are still game releases for the Amiga 500.  (via)
• Awesome Emacs.  Emacs add-ons that people deem worth trying.  (via swildner)
• A Weekend at KansasFest, the Sleepaway Camp for Apple II Fanatics.  (via)
• Tricks to play with vim.
• Unions as a solution to stack ranking in tech companies.  Not sure if that’s the answer, but most people just take fat paychecks and ignore the problem.  (via I lost it, sorry)
• The new Devil’s Dictionary.  To see quotes from the original, search for “Bierce” in /usr/src/games/fortune/datfiles/fortunes .  (via many places)
