More opportunity to write games. It is infitenly easier to get into writing games now than back then.
Also, don't underestimate the "juice" that these days is relatively easy to do but would be expenseive back then. Balatro has dozens of very small things going on graphically that make it feel real nice to play that most certainly not be free on SNES hardware.
And like vampire survivors is just Robotron/Smash TV with infinity number of sprites on screen. The limitation is very much hardware in that case.
There is an old Usborne computing book that was a general introduction to computers published in approx 1982 that predicted in 25 years (i.e. 2007) we would have palm sized pocket computers with a touch sensitive colour screen, video camera and connected to a radio network.
Which I think is pretty impressive levels of prediction.
Why is a shareholder who legally cannot be involved in running the company stating this?
USDT and USDC are both centralised crypto currencies with a single source of truth.
You are despicable, awful person.
I mean they added close to 50% to their headcount over Covid. Is Microsoft doing 50% more stuff?
They over hired and are still no where near their pre-pandemic numbers.
Yes, I think about problem as I write code.
So getting an LLM to write code is kind of self defeating.
1. The Gameboy was powered using AA batteries not AAA which have about triple the capacity.
2. The Gameboy screen was LCD not LED, with no backlight, and had a 2.5 inch diagonal compared to this laptop's 14 inch diagonal.
3. Also if you read the article you will see a technical limitation was that the screen had to be run at full brightness
This thing has a 14 inch LED screen never mind the actual computer part. How much energy do you think they can hide in a AAA battery?
Oh wow, do they have 200 litre tanks capable of generating 10,000 psi?
They made a self congratulatory blog post about improving the Claude TUI so it didn't flicker anymore.
The secret is their code is shockingly bad but they have unlimited budget to fix it.
WeWork fans were incredible.
Good news if you like paperclips.
Someone had their resolution set to higher than a postage stamp I see.
Cows smelly. Lots of cows really smelly.
It's because of the gap in what they say and what they do.
> There is nothing that, in principle, makes MTG different from poker or bridge
Only in the most general form they are games with cards and hidden information with a state space that some form of tree search can theoretically play out.
The difference is the size of the search space. In MTG the search space is unimaginably huge. It would make Go's search space look like a spec of hydrogen in the middle of the universe.
It would require completely different techniques to produce a computer good at MtG than one that is good at bridge.
Elon being crushingly unfunny and being unable to accept that is about 40% of the reason we are in this mess.
If I have a random number generator and I also have the burning desire to connect the random number generator to the nuclear launch system it is both just a random number generator and also I should be tackled to the ground by serious men with sunglasses in black suits and sent to prison.
Leading up to the 2024 election people kept pointing to Project 2025 and going - here is a list of bad things the Republicans plan to do once they got power. And other people went: no they won't, this long detailed list of step by step instruction for what the Republicans plan to do once they get power is not actually what they will do so do not pay any attention to it.
Similarily with AI alignment and development all of this is written down, Eliezer Yudkowsky is rally explicit that there needs to be a pivotal event to prevent 'others' from developing superintelligence. The choice is to believe what they say or to tell everyone to ignore it.
The philosophy under pinning these American AI companies is that Super AGI is inevitable and that they have a moral imperative to invent it and then use it to take over the world to stop an evil orginisation inventing Super AGI and using it to take over the world.
Interpret everything they do in this frame of reference and it makes more sense of their actions.
It's supremely depressing that the current direction of AI is headed by either former crypto scammers or true believers who think they have a moral imperative to take over the world.
Current models love shoving in defaults where correct code would otherwise fall over with an exception.
I dread to think what that means in security conscious code.
It's analogous to a paperclip production optimizer optimizing paperclip production.
If only there was some well known example of this that people could draw on for insipiration.
If only....
An LLM with CoT and hitherto undiscovered ability to avoid context poisoning/pollution would be more precise.
assembly is the only choice. The Z80 processor is a twisty collection of registers, none alike. It is pretty much the opposite of what a, for example, C compiler is looking for.
In fact C compilers are _notoriously_ bad at producing code for the Z80.
I'm not dismissing the tech! I think the tech is cool and useful! It is sci-fi levels incredible in many ways.
But it is also not some mysterious force beyond mortal ken and pretending it is inhibits the useful and safe application of the technology.
"OpenAI hacked HuggingFace"
that's the headline. When you connect to random number generator to the "Do Things" button you are the one who is responsible. IF you don't like that responsibility then don't connect the generator to the button.
