You could say the same about publicity traded companies. It all depends on who is in charge... And unfortunately self-serving people tend to reach the top more easily in both scenarios. You don't get Dan Price's very often (relati

Buried an interesting fact at the bottom -- This is seen as a ring, but likely a coil aligned with our viewpoint. I don't know much about astronomy, but that fact changed how I played with the idea in my head.

Would Rosebud help in making consistent characters? I tested out that example game. I asked her "do you like coffee", and Grandma replied "I despite coffee...". However, when you say "lets drink coffee" she say

I think a safer language for anti-AI training license would be a CC-based license with a "may not be used in AI training sets or testing" addition... This would (if they cared) prevent the AI company from using the data... but not

From an indie game dev standpoint, I can probably say a sentence or two in a given way using my standard headset microphone.. and something like this would allow for clean voice lines fairly easily, as long as they don't need to stress

You do not often get an email to tell you you were not accepted for a position (unless you made it far in the process) Businesses have pushed heavily for at-will employment; this means that businesses don't need to say why people are f

I get that it's frustrating waiting for an app to be approved... But there's nothing really technical, novel, or useful to others in this post except that, perhaps you should price at $9.99 instead of $10 in the Samsung store for
