Tim Sweeney vocally supports child porn and deep fake porn? He certainly looks like the type of creeper, so I guess I’m not that surprised.

I wonder how many times he’s been to Trump and Epstein’s Pedophile Island 🤔

I wouldn’t trust a single ICE or DHS agent to do the right thing in this situation. We have proof of at least one Chinese tank crew doing so.

How do you define “better”?

Most answers on SO are either from a doc page, are common patterns found in multiple books, or is mostly opinion-based. Most code AIs are significantly better at the first two without even being trained on SO (which I wouldn’t want anyway - SO really does suck nowadays)

It’s literally in the title of the post

Better yet, isn’t Sony doing that exact same thing by thinking that putting an AI autoplay function into the games is what all players want or at least a gross majority?

…no? Where on earth does that come from?

Does adding a higher difficulty mean that the dev thinks all players want to play on it? Does adding accessibility features imply that everyone wants to play with subtitles? Does adding colorblind mode mean that they believe all of their players are colorblind?

The same logic can be used for difficulty settings: you play it, in harder and harder settings, to have a new/added challenge.

I can absolutely guarantee that 99.9% of players do not ever replay a game they’ve beaten. You’re generalizing your own values and goals and they’re absolutely not as common as you think they are

MMOs are the only modern games where anyone really cares if the player cheats

…what?

I took that as her comparing two different Waffle Houses and the one with the race war was less dramatic than the other

I feel like mine’s the opposite… the first side is perfect and then I overcook the second because the pan got hotter

I wouldn’t even eat lobster in Iowa, let alone pay that much for it. Where do people think the lobster is coming from?

four shots

little coffee

Uh

Basic assumptions are why the Challenger exploded. Hopefully nobody ever hires you as an engineer.

lol

Every time you say “obviously” to an assumption, someone else gets the job.

It wasn’t intuitive before, either, without making an absolute ton of horrible assumptions.

• Are the wires even connected?
• Does only one switch control the light?
• Did the light start on or off?
• Is the light bulb in arm’s reach?
• Can I bring my friend and just yell to each other?
• Can I just leave the door open and see whether it turns on or not?
• It says I’m allowed to visit the bulb room once but never actually mentions the switch room - do I start there? Can I go back after visiting the bulb room?
• And, as you said, what type of bulb is it?

Anyone who doesn’t explore the assumptions should probably fail that particular interview question.

It’s interesting to see Torvalds emerge as a kind of based tech hero.

It’s just that almost everyone else that could do it ended up being fucking ghouls of people.

Torvalds can be… brusque, sure. But he doesn’t support child labor, he doesn’t cheat on his wife, and he isn’t some crazy cult leader waging a war against workers’ rights.
