    I love Factorio, but I can't play it - it's way too addictive. If I start on a Friday, I won't stop until Monday

      I still believe Factorio fundamentally rewired the way I think about software and engineering more broadly... prepared me better for my first software internship than any class I'd taken

      The whole game really drills in what it means to "think like a computer scientist". Abstraction, encapsulation, modularity, etc

        Agree - I see Kafka on it!
