People absolutely do that with cruise control, and gas pedal... Look at the people texting or drinking and driving non-self-driving vehicles. Adding AI to an inherently risky activity doesn't eliminate the risk. If you're saying s

You learned how to maintain a membership in one of the top groups of one of the top games. that's not exactly a marketable skill on paper, but you sound like someone who knows how to grind when you set your mind to it. As someone with

How is this any different from using other technology, e.g. a calculator or a power tool? Or a manager and the output of their ICs? Obviously the scope of what's possible is different but _any_ craftsman using _any_ tool will only be a

The flag is the result of brigading, and means absolutely nothing to me. And you are being disingenuous. Consider this my final reply.

Your questions indicate to me a clear pattern of condescension. I don't see value engaging with straw man arguments and non sequitur rhetorical questions.

Thank you for checking my imposter syndrome! Looking back I'm realizing I was actually just using the debugger to piece things together, but I always felt like a fraud because I wasn't just magically generating it from my own mind

Thank you for the recs! I think I'll have to check out dead of winter. I think after some reflection I know what you mean about the variance of "stuff to do" from game to game in Catan. We don't play much anymore, as I p

Me too! Ain't no way I had time at 14 to train taming. Ended up taking an equivalent amount of time learning to script it anyway though... Led me to a lifelong obsession with automation, although I never quite picked up the pure cs fun

I appreciate your passion! Unsolicited advice: IME I've found being angry because I was right serves no one, least of all myself. I would recommend you soften your language. Harshness, even if warranted, turns people off, especially th

Thank you for such an exhaustive list. I've added The Crew to my family's play queue. Sounds right up our alley!

Oof, I am definitely an "eyes bigger than stomach" game hoarder. I think about 30 percent of my collection is still shrink wrapped and stored in garage bound totes.

Wingspan is probably my #2 behind scythe. Love anything Jamey is involved with.

Baseless speculation is worth nothing. San Fran is also full of diabetics. Maybe they were trying to steal his pancreas.

Refer to the guidelines. Whining about votes is the only thing reddit-like.

Thanks for sharing! I've learned the fun of social deception games with friends fades rather fast, as in the replayability feels low. At least in my case, that is. I don't have a regular group, and so I play with mostly casual pla

And here I thought _I_ was an elitest for looking down at the Parker Bros. catalog et al from the Catanian peaks. I guess maybe I'm not so sophisticated after all ;) Curious - what is your go-to board game?

Said this in multiple places, multiple times, but will never get sick of repeating myself: Lex is singlehandedly saving journalism. Now hire me so I can help you, you big silly goof ;)

Hear hear! Our current and 13 year old selves sound like we could be a lot alike! I'm really doing my best to make past/teenage me proud. I know about 5 years ago, I'd probably have kicked my own butt.

I've always felt the standards are more about organization and common practices, whereas the implementation is still the wild west. Unfortunately in my experience, abstraction, even if structured, doesn't solve the main issue: it

Handpicking, aka gatekeeping, is a core tenet of journalism. It's a requirement of the newsgathering process and determining which facts are relevant (newsworthy) _is_ a reporter's job, while the editorial process provides the nec

What you've described is literal propaganda. Your description leaves our several of the core tenets of journalism, among them: independent verification and contextualization.

The yet part is what hurts my soul. I've watched the decline for almost two decades in horror, but all I can say is they're the lesser of many, many evils, but as always: buyer beware.

I have a journalism degree, and spent a short stint as a reporter before transitioning to engineering. I share much the same experience: both encountering a distinct lack of effective communication based on what I had expected, and being wr

NPR is definitely one of the institutions doing it right when it comes to reporting standards. Makes news like these layoffs all the more heartbreaking.
