There is not a single reply where you understood the position you were arguing with.

The compulsion of pointing it out has becomes very annoying IMHO. Slop is slop -- if it is AI generated slop then fine, call it out. If it is not slop what is the point of this compulsion? It derails a lot of threads when the content is ac

> The trick is knowing the difference between. The trick is striking a balance. The article is arguing that there is little to no balance and that "apparent speed" trumps all other concerns. Hence the use of the word "Rel

It is a metaphor. Getting pedantic about the simple math laid out in the metaphor seems like you have lost the plot.

It seems as if you did not really read the article. The piece is titled "Religion of Speed" -- in other words speed (or apparent speed) as the guiding principle over anything else. It says nothing even remotely like "you shou

A very interesting twist on an old favorite. Nicely done.

I really like the many variations from the original that you have added (the physics like spin and anti-gravity). These surprises made it far-more-interesting to play than I expected.

Point of clarity: my </sarc> remark was not in reference to the original post and project (which I love!). It was in reference to this comment (which I should have pasted): > Yeah this $100k system with all its expensive add o

IMHO lossy/lossless feels like the wrong term to use for natural-language text. Every time natural-language passes from one human to another whether verbally or in the written word, there is a greater than zero percent chance that the

This is an AI app from the 1950s! Developed by Rube Goldberg who fully intended to vibe code the scoring part later. </sarc>

I loved this piece. The value is in the abstract concepts NOT in specific cases people are posting. It is about the deliberate management over one's own internal state which is the only thing one has true control over. Resentment, esp

This piece is a little odd for me. I don't understand the logic behind this: "read Kant and found it to be dense and impenetrable...an AI generated summary would have helped" followed by "Would it have improved comprehe

This takes me back to the frustrations of trying to record band rehearsals in small spaces using the built-in-mic (a very long time ago). Poor fidelity of cassette tape medium was the least of the issues. The biggest problem was the built

The price + graphics and sound (out-of-the-box) was what really made the difference for me and self-learning. But I learned a lot more about disk data organization (hardware-level) via the Apple IIs that were at school. An interesting side-

Apple and Google (via smartphones) are in literally everyone's pocket. Running KIMI on a phone is not possible today and I agree with you that it will "probably be years before..." it is. But how many years do you guess? I p

While I agree that this phrase is most commonly spoken in a figurative sense, folks with marginal heart health have a much greater than 0% chance of having something of this nature trigger an actual heart attack.

For anything below a Trillion, you should just take it out petty-cash. </sarc> My sympathies -- I know I would be overcome with panic in such a situation.

I am curious how many of you other C64 greybeards got exposed to a language called COMAL (not a typo) on the C64 back in the day?

> making strategic decisions after snorting a long line of social-media-psychosis and TED talks I would give you +100 for that if I could. Very well-played (and worded). I think I'm going to steal that one.

I wanted an Apple II so badly and thought I was getting the short-end-of-the-stick with a C64 but I am so happy (to this day) that my first machine at home was C64. I still have my tattered C64 Programmer's Reference Guide on my shelf

Wow that very long series of pivots in the same messaging space is eye-opening and disheartening. It is hard to believe. Thank you for sharing that.
