Hello! My name is Robert, and I have migrated my accounts from several other instances to start this board game instance.
I love #euro games, ala The Gaia Project and Through the Ages as well as most #GMTGames board war games. I clip my counters.
I also am interested in #linux, #programming, #raspberrypi, #python, #AWS, #GoogleCloudPlatform and #SQL
I plan on posting lots of pics of games played and projects worked on.
On to Five Tribes. Such a great game. #boardgames
A game of Mysterium!
Hello! Iβm a newly-minted CS PhD (UC Santa Cruz) and Assistant Prof at Pomona College. My research area connects videogames, AI, verification, and specification recovery. Iβm also really interested in GPGPU and other forms of energy-efficient computation. Iβm on a mission to help my students replace the games industry and Silicon Valley with more humane alternatives.
I want to learn more about equitable instructional, assessment, and evaluation design!
I bought a Mastodon T-shirt and sticker instead of a new board game. Tells you how much I appreciate the software.

Walking new people into the #bgg hobby is like people getting into cigars, wine or scotch/whiskey. You have to get them started on an easy, light, palatable experience before you start to introduce deeper, richer more complex experiences.
I once made the mistake of introducing some right into Dominant Species with 6 players. 3+ hours later her response was, "I was just waiting for it to end."
I'm no nerd, but reading hacker News is like reading Reddit but everyone is trying to be clever and shitty OH WAIT
Pretty interesting discussion on the balance between work and hobbies on reddit.
