The process was absolutely to ship a commercial game, which Casey re-iterated at the beginning of every single episode. Also, people could spend $15 to "pre-order" the game.

Markov chains of order n are essentially n-gram models - and this is what language models used to be for a very long time. They are quite good. As a matter of fact, they were so good that more sophisticated models often couldn't beat t

Long-time (25+ years) Emacs user. The first thing I do on a new installation is turn off the GUI features (like, menus and toolbars) - no-one I know who uses Emacs uses the mouse.
