C4 is very interesting and I think tackles certain problems related to software architecture really well. It sort of turns the lower levels of an architecture, which is mostly hardware and system software, into broad abstractions and focu

No, I don't believe it was specifically tied to this system. Dr. Mark Peterson[1] who has his own great channel[2] and a video on this topic (in Korean)[3] explains it as mostly just happening as a clerical matter both during the Choso

Nearby Korea, being strongly influenced by Chinese bureaucratic concepts and Confucianism, also used this system in antiquity and flavors of it have carried over into the modern age. There were some differences, the Chinese exam created a k

In a sense, LLMs are already lossy compressors. Summarization is sort of just turning up the lossy part so it seems to be a natural use-case for them.

The major category for demoscene competition has always been a more or less "no constraints" category. The restricted ones are really just so that smaller teams with fewer resources or different angles have the ability to compete

I've shown many of the more recent demos, built for modern systems with GPUs, to lots of regular people. Many of the best are still viewed as impossibly cool music videos even if the technical magic is lost on "normies". Ther

I've had a lot of fun with the concepts and setting of the Gantz series. Gantz:O in particular is a blast of a CGI movie. The story devolves into nonsense, but if you stick it out it's an absolutely bonkers ride through the end of

Well, in the old days, you just put the splats in your 3d space, they weren't really sprites (in the strict sense that they didn't use dedicated sprite hardware). They're really interesting thing is that they're being us

To be at risk of an "AcKchYuALly". Gaussian Splatting has been around since at least the early 90s. There's even a few old games made with the technique. The paper I think your referring to made the interesting leap that a 3d

One of the challenges with this is that the phonology of English as spoken varies quite a bit -- even among nearby regions -- particularly with vowels, but sometimes with consonants especially medial ones. https://youtu.be/s

The renewed interest in the N64 is very interesting considering how relatively "unpopular" it was during its lifetime. There's also not a huge number of great games on the system (IMHO) compared to its competitors. A top-50

Delegation is never really well taught. However, it is an activity that has a lifecycle that starts before you give somebody a task, and ends after they give you back the resulting work product. A "task" is often hard for software

The two major American political parties should really be viewed as coalitions of a number of single or few issue parties. It's an issue of semantics, but it also explains how our parties can swing so wildly over time on certain issues
