Not at all - I'm just not mentioning names because I don't want to discourage anyone to get started before I decide that I'm ready to work on ANY game. If I do it, I'll ping you here :).

"The proof is not the modern proof which I have been formalizing myself following ideas of Khare, Taylor etc, but the Darmon–Diamond–Taylor exposition from 1995 of the Wiles–Taylor–Wiles argument, via the Langlands–Tunnell theorem and

Ah, it's not going to be Amiga. The shortlist has two PC and two C64 games.

Great work! I'm planning to do that to another forgotten game (not mine) and it's great to see that this is now quite possible.

Usually these appeal mostly to people in the field. I've tried to take many people to computer museums but generally they aren't interested unless they are software engineers themselves.

Russia, China, Indonesia, Turkey, Pakistan and India are also non-signatories, among many others. The ICC exists mostly for political statements.

Ultimately this isn't "AI's fault". As the article points out, clueless executives who don't understand the capabilities and limitations of specific LLMs push the technology on workers so they can say they are &quot

I gave Firefox a chance as my PDF reader as it has a pretty efficient engine. But that didn't work out as I don't need to read PDFs often so every time it launched, it ran an update that added 10s to reading the PDF... :/ My

True, but these aren't becoming best sellers. It's a bigger problem for Amazon than for readers in a sense, as they need to implement a good way for people to filter out these offerings so customers don't simply walk away and

Does it significantly reduce cavities and/or gum disease? In other words, what's the effect of the AI water jet on dental health?

A small window to how we used to spread deep computer topics in the 90s. No substacks or X posts. Very cool.

I imagine that they haven't done a peer-reviewed scientific study of their ability to notice generative art. We can replace their statement by "I'm a visual artist and at generative art is often blindingly obvious.... To me

I understand the spirit of what you're saying, but "unassisted humans" isn't a good yardstick. There's hardly anything "unassisted" humans understand today... We require plenty of assistance from computer

Sure thing, but do you see these as "easy money" or simply doing a friend a favor?

You could have given him the bill for his immediate expenses and later give him the difference. Or pay him a beer or a lunch to make up for it. I'd never take advantage of a friend in need like that. And as you said, "it was an ea

Anyone has had a good experience using SteamOS on one of those $200 N95 PCs from Amazon?

But that's fine too. If the complexity of the natural world is just emergent behaviors, then emergence itself never ceases to amaze. Because one wouldn't normally expect that our "cold" physical laws could lead to the va

It's great to see Intel attempting a strong comeback. It looks like this chip will work well for those $200-$300 mini PCs sold on Amazon.

It's okay if Legal does that. The idea isn't to prevent companies from owning copyrighted works long-term, it's to prevent the waste of abandoned works. There are thousands, if not millions, of works that could be cleanly reu

That would be a tough change... An easier one, which is how things used to be, that everything enters public domain IF not renewed after X years (let's say 20). Abandoned or complex IP would just become public domain unless the owners

I haven't yet been able to properly internalize the horror of this scene. Maybe because we're exposed to so many images from disaster and action movies/videogames, I got somewhat desensitized to the "graphics", so t
