Fun read. I remember when my coworker got hired by Twitter I was a bit jealous. Now in retrospect, I was the lucky one working at a web branding agency.

In May 2020, Lai told CNN news that US president Donald Trump was "the only one who can save us" from China, with Apple Daily publishing a similar plea addressed to Trump the same month.

There's something ironic about this...

For me it would be enough to make a simple concept game in the style of an old dungeon crawl and put it up on GitHub....
