Oh I trust my code, but I don’t trust my coworkers not to break something on the very next commit.

ClickUp is A LOT worse than Jira.

Just never saw the need for it.

I use Vivaldi as well but every time I update it I need to change one of it’s internal JS files to remove one UI restriction that annoys me: I use two vertical tab bars, one for showing all the tab groups and another for showing the tabs inside the selected group. For some reason Vivaldi limits the width of the two sidebar (combined) to 330px, which is too small for my tastes.

I mean, if someone creates a game with all the options there and you just use AI as a replacement for a complex UI, it could kinda work. A game like scribblenauts could theorically implement an AI based stage creation option with the current tech already. The problem with that is that the AI wouldn’t be able to guarantee that the stage has a proper challenge level (or even that is possible to complete it), so it would also need to implement an AI that tries to beat the level as well and then keep iterating over the two until a proper stage is found.

In short: doable, for very niche cases and probably taking a very long time to complete a prompt (possibly hours).

I believed they maybe weren’t listening because those cases that people claim as “proof” of listening can usually be explained in other ways as well. People tend to assume they were listening because its the easier explanation but with the amount of data that Meta has, they can easily lead people into thinking about things by showing specific posts on the Facebook timeline and also predict to some extent what people may end up talking about based on things like how many times you replay a certain video and how long did you keep certain posts in focus on the screen and that sort of stuff that people often don’t realize is also data for them.

Still, I would never put my hand on fire for them and never completely discarded the possibility of them listening.

Well we always accused Meta of listening. If it was their partners, they technically weren’t lying when they said they weren’t. “we don’t need to listen to you” was technically correct too, it just missed one word: “we don’t need to listen to you ourselves”

The fact that a simple OS update can make the CPU up to 13% more effective makes me wonder how much performance difference there is between Windows and Linux.

Since I have dual boot, I’ll check later if I can find any benchmark tool that works on both so I can compare.

Anyone in charge of a non-publicly traded company will want to do what’s best for the company in the long term instead of milking as much from it as fast as they can, so I don’t think that replacing Gabe by someone else will be the end of Valve like so many people claim.

Every now and then you run into games where you lose a ton of time trying to figure out a good controller mapping to play it properly, but in terms of working, most stuff do.

Oh and the battery can drain out pretty fast too.

Just last month I was thinking about asking somewhere if there was any chance we could ever find more than the usual stuff or if there would be no way for a perfect preservation to happen naturally. Guess I have my answer now.

My favorite 8 bit game was The Little Samson. So few people know about it but it was an incredible game for that time.

Oh, there is. But while they keep this game up, there’s still plausible deniability for everything.

The creator of bitcoin is as unknown as batman’s identity. The folks at the center of the main blockchain companies and stuff like that all know pretty well who created it, they just play along with the story.

There are many communities I would have no interest in participating actively, but that I still like to hear about when something big happens. The all feed kinda gives me that sort of experience.

My wife got a pair and she liked them, but she also got an offbrand one she likes a lot more.

In Portuguese we don’t use many acronyms, but we have shorter versions of words with the vowels removed or things like that. When people tried to use acronyms we ended up with “fds” which some people read as weekend, others read as “fuck it”. The only other acronyms I can think of right now are all for offenses such as fdp (son of a bitch) and cdf (“ass of iron”, very old term for calling someone a nerd).

I wonder how that’s going. When the devs started they were clearly overpromising things that they thought would be cool to have without any idea of how long it would take to implement them. I always suspected it would remain in development for many many years, but apparently it’ll be playable next year.

Windows, in the past has been known to sometimes overwrite the Linux boot loader after a windows update.

Linux (ubuntu) do that pretty often too, people just don’t notice it because they’re unlikely to be running any other bootloader if they have Linux’.
