I wouldn't be surprised if it's internet discourse, comments, tweets etc. If I had to paint the entire internet social zeitgeist with a few words, it would be "Confident in ignorance". A sort of unearened, authoritative

I use a Lily58 split/lightly bowled keyboard and it has been a big improvement in many regards. The thumb cluster is a much different approach to the Glove or Maltron, and I think it would benefit people with shorter thumb reach but mi

There are a lot of games and gamers I guess that would benefit from very dynamic dialogue. It would mostly focus on long term games where the feeling of immersion in the world is valuable long after completing the main quests. Or systemic g

It is no coincidence that the most popular procedurally generated games feature highly systemic gameplay. These are systems sandboxes, places for players to explore a world and build their own stories. There are not many examples of popular

As well, just because it pasts a test doesn't mean it doesn't do wonky, non-performant stuff. Or worse, side effects no one verified. Plenty often the LLM output will add new fields I didn't ask it to change as one example.

The same thing happens with cars. There's a somewhat predictable spike in used car prices for what become cult classics. Cars that are otherwise pretty mundane, and have since been well surpassed. It's the people now with full tim
