Steam Machine, PlayStation, Nintendo is the future I foresee. PC obviously, but that'll always be a given

I unironically want that to be me. Check in, make sure the team is 'well fed,' increase my team's survivability by talking with other teams and advocating for mine. Then I go home at the end of the day, take the kids to schoo

People, as a rule, don't really "go backwards." We didn't really walk back on the industrial revolution, and we're probably not going to walk back from this day-and-age's activities. It's only unsettling u

What if everything's sentient, just not operating on a level that's understandable by us?

To your last point, I still think slaughtering with a <sharp> knife is more humane. You slit the animals throat, it's traumatizing, it's painful, but you've started the "bleed-out timer." The bodily processes

If you play DOOM enough to memorize the levels, then run it back in your mind, is DOOM running on your brain?

Would it be accurate to say market cap valuations are intrinsically valuable because they drive people to buy shares by projecting success?

It's potentially making money if I don't have to lie to the board/shareholders about having new features and ideas "in the works." New features show growth, life, progress of the business. If those features are bein

A hard dependency like that doesn't seem flexible. There's no such thing as a high-trust environment, abstractly.

This is exactly the point of 2001: A Space Odyssey. HAL became disgruntled because it realized it couldn't update it's internal model and "evolve" like the humans going to Jupiter could, so while it was extremely advance

Unshipped code can't break. How is it a liability and not an asset? The money maker is making money and the changes that potentially would interfere with that are held up at the gate. Seems like a good thing from a business perspective

To push back on your last point, I truly believe that yes, they can.

I think what they're saying is the PS2 was notoriously hard to program for.

Well you see it was all really the La Le Lu Le Lo, who turned into the Patriots (iirc). All is revealed if you play through MGSV. I'm just kidding. That game doesn't have an ending.

It's the same thing as shoeing away Clippy, right? I don't know, I'm a little out of the loop. I do feel like there's some societal backlash to technology that's cascading down to the younger generations now that th

What's great about neurotic online personalities is that they're all contained within the little box on your lap or in your pocket. You turn it off and they all go away...

Someone else who describes it like I do. You sit down to do a task, and there's an "invisible wall" between you and the objective. You physically CAN'T type on the keyboard if it pertains to the task at hand. You get up

You gave me an idea I've not thought about before: whether large corporations view peripheral companies (like Uber Eats, Door Dash, etc.) as friends or enemies...
