Full disclaimer: Claude Code was used heavily, but I experimented with fun stuff in addition to the cpu emulation, like a fully procedural asset production with aesthetic checker script.

Being into computers is now such a stereotypical way to be nerd, I would be way more interested to talk to a plumbing nerd right now.

The massive data gathering part should only be part of the learning phase of the system imo, once it get a good model of reality it should infer useful knowledge information from few data, like an expert.

I guess the point of view is that if a department is well running, it means it is overressourced. So you reduce the ressources until it's breaking point, just enough for it to not fail. A jaded service manager told me it was part of its official training: if the clients was too satisfied that meant that human ressources were wasted on them, so he had to spin plates between clients. I guess it was economically optimal.

I think that engineering progress made while building those machines are maybe more relevant for practical technical development than the discovery they make.

It's always cited as an example, and it's highly impressive yes, but it's also highly focused, with a very partial feature set, I'm not sure that type of coding is applicable to mass scale software.

Isn't the role of a concept artist mainly to do worldbuilding and drawing second? AI does not seem to have a good world model, they make pretty pictures but they lack thought behind them.
Ask HN: How do you integrate everyday data into your working knowledge?
Like a lot of people here I assume, I tend to read lots of stuff about lots of things. While It's pleasing to learn about all those nice nuggets of data, It all turns in the end in some sort of mushy paste that I find hard to leverage.How do you actively read information? do you have any procedures or way to build a solid and integrated web of knowledge?

I don't think the fact that remote work is not possible for other professionals is relevant. If it is about fairness, you could say it is even an advantage for other workers since it means less traffic congestion, better access to restaurant and less land use.
Ask HN: Interested in game engine programming, not gamedev
Hi HN,Let's suppose that I have the chops to get such jobs, how should I demonstrate skills?Following ideas are:- Contribute to opensource engine such as Godot - Build my basic game engine - Reverse engineer old games and make a port/remake (could get in trouble, but coming from an infosec background that and finding exploits in them could scratch an itch)As I said i'm only interested in game...

That's the issue with a lot of educational ressource, they don't tell about the problems that are to be solved. For OOP for example, I would an iteratively built ressource that present a problem then a first solution, and the new problems that it introduces, and so on.

Damn, I tried really hard to be good at computers and only achieved mediocrity. It was lonely and made me miss lots of other stuff in life and now I can only try to just be barely competent. I am really happy for you, but it just reminded that I have almost surely missed my shot at life and at getting those kind of memories. Hey at least I get to live in interesting times.
