Some old games are infinite, and don't have a proper end, then can roll infinitely. So as a result, you can play as long as you wish, until you reach the hardware limits, which is called the kill screen, and might be the closest thing

Then the generative tools should just give the sources of the inspiration of the AI and make them aware of what they are using, instead of saying "nope, not my problem".

So it makes generative AI essentially unusable, because you don't know if the output is plagiarism or not, so you'd just doubt it always and never use it.

How do you know you are inputing "well known entities" if you don't know it beforehand ? If I type "columbian coffee logo" and end up with logos of brands that existed before hand, should I just reverse engineer the

hypermetropia and astigmatism stack on top of each other, with astigmatism it was always blurry, and then on top of this you get the hypermetropia or myopia. So, I never had a normal vision because of astigmatism, but if I didn't have

What does it mean "more powerful" ? Do you mean in terms of productivity ? It probably depends on your task anyways. In 2023, it's still a pain to have decent debugging in Vim. For pure text editing, I can believe you, but fo

I know it's nothing in itself, but the progress in a few year was significant, and my doctors told it to me. It was a huge dégradation in a matter of 5 years, while I was already old. I wondered what was the thing that started the bad

I'm 30, software engineer, and I have had glasses for most of my life. I have astigmatism from birth like a lot of people. Now, up until 25 years old, it was just that, and even hypermetropia. But suddenly from 25, it started to revers

That's the weird thing. They seem to have the best hardware for the price, for individuals to develop and use local LLMs, but so far they have been pretty quiet on all this.

I did the same as you and it felt so good. I did a break on the Wednesdays and it was perfect. I really felt way better just because of this break every 2 days. Don't know about the productivity though.

As a french person, I don't get why no politician ever talks about simplifying those things. It sounds so easy and such a quick win, leading to more visibility on the budget, and people getting easily access to their due money. But I t

It's true. Steam has a no-questions-asked refund that works up to 2 hours of playtime, and it seems to work great. Download a game, doesn't run, or the game is bad ? Just refund. Not sure if it would work for apps though, as games

A lot of translated titles contain slight spoilers though, for example "predestination" becomes "time paradox" in Korean, it immediately gives you a hint of some part of the twist.

I doubt it's the only thing. Me and my friend moved to Korea, had the same Korean sim card. Only thing that changed is that I have an Android (Xiaomi), and she has an iPhone. Mine didn't start to do any sound.

What's funny is that's it's not about "Korean smartphones", it's about "smartphones on Korea". A friend of mine bought an iphone in France, and when she went to visit Korea, it started doing the shutt

Of course I do, but at least I kind of chose a path that I kind of like. You are assuming that with a powerful AGI, we won't work 40h a week, but what if you'd still work as much, just to other positions that you don't like ?

Well, as someone looking to get into this field, I kind of disagree. A lot (if not all) job postings about graphics programming require you to know C++ beforehand. Sure, you can have another role, like gameplay programmer, and slowly work y
