Mine rarely shows rage bait and when it does I just block everyone involved or add words to mute list. I think people who see this a lot are in fact baited and it creates a cycle. Which isn't to say it's a good system, more that i

I guess it's a question if whether you miss bail of the bail bondsmen can recover 100% of the bail despite having only lost 30% of it. I bet I can guess which it is.

I'm not sure I've ever noticed a single one or had a ticket from any or heard of anyone ever getting a ticket from one. They don't seem common in my experience, or maybe it's just like an east coast thing because I'

I doubt bots, the linked page is really boring to read and looks like a dashboard instead of easily consumed reading. I think people are therefore drawing conclusions from the headline more than usual since the link makes the real informati

I super rarely use it myself these days, basically just for images, because it still seems like the best of terrible options for images. Everything else is asking ChatGPT to search for me and clicking on sources to verify if its important

5.6 has been a huge pivotal change in reverse engineering tasks for me too (largely extracting game assets from binary client files). Something I spent literally weeks on in January with claude models at the time was solved in about 30 minu

I think you may be applying extrinsic too broadly. I believe it's still intrinsic because it's about an internal feeling and desire rather than the threat of bad grades, punishment, or coercion from someone else. It's about t

Search result ads are some of the most harmful ads, and Google's ads in particular are probably the number one cause of fraud, scams, and malware on the entire planet. It's a shame that Firefox whitelisted these, but I'm sure

I mean I don't want autonomous cars to follow directions by humans that sound like "plow into this crowd of people". Even things like microwaves don't let you turn it on without the door closed. I don't see how this

I'm working on getting the full storyline working, it's a little complicated because I need to morph it a bit to work in an MMO context. It's also inherently a little complicated because it's all flag based and flags can

They have physics now! And flip over when you go too hard. I spent literally like 5 hours fine tuning forklift physics, haha.

I accept they might C&D me. I'll take it down instantly if they do. Or even just a polite email. It's just a fun demo project and I refuse to accept any money for it so my hope is that it's fine. The current owners of Eve

I wanted to make MMOs when I was like 12 years old and everyone on the internet told me it was impossible and it took millions of dollars and a team of 200 people and crazy levels of knowledge to even do the basics. Which, to be fair, was s

Thanks! It's been a labor of love for over a year. Maybe closer to two, I sort of lose track.

The Shenmue one does! Also the pool game in the jazz club should work well on mobile. The pool game is available as a small stand-alone website here too, complete with Shenmue assets: https://luckybreak.app/ I've had p

My two biggest projects are: https://www.idlequest.net/ - a from-scratch recreation of the 1999 MMORPG classic EverQuest, featuring a real-time MMO server written in Go, a 3D game browser-based client built with Babylon.js,

Yeah that's my weakest browser game since I've actually transitioned to using a desktop Godot client I haven't released yet. It will load eventually it just takes forever bc the assets are quite large, which is part of the re

It'd be interesting to see what someone could do to turn a 90s era adventure game into an MMO! I never played the game myself but I think basically any game dev project that modernizes stuff is really neat.

I've reverse engineered multiple classic games and turned them into popular, browser-based MMO-like experiences. I'm also creating a free platform that replaces extremely out-of-date software, some of it only available with mutli-

I burned through $100 of credits in literally 40 minutes doing the same long running task I always do.

Others have said similar but I disagree, I'm spending $200/m and I can easily burn through my weekly quota with a few overnight goals using 5.6 medium.

I had same experience with OpenAI. I have the $200/month plan and use 5.6 Sol all the time. What would normally use about 2% of my weekly allowance burned through $100 of credits in 40 minutes.

I don't think these studies meaningfully replicate the motivation of real life situations where there is either a lot of money on the line or emotional investment. Anyone can be honest when it's $20 on the line

Honestly having AIs already pretty flawlessly write in basically any language and do good enough translations from any to any is pretty astounding. Throw that on these walking robots and you basically have C3PO. It's not like his arms
