To be honest, I've seen an enormous increase in the number of jobs on offer. This is southern NH, in the $10-$15 per hour range.

I'll admit, I'm originally po' white trash, but I consider that pretty good wages for a cushy non-labor job at Micky Ds or Dunky Donuts.

Also in the military there are people who maintain the planes, tanks, armoury, cook meals, build bridges, transport supplies, etc. Without their support no amount of leadership would win battles.

For many people fulfilment comes from being a good team player and competently supporting the front-line.
Thanks for explaining, I didn't even think of shared resources since I've never lived in such a place (and find the idea odd -- wouldn't it be safer, providing more choice, NOT to get all your services from one provider?)

Shouldn't a luxury place have good walls in place to avoid noise though? Seems like a luxury place that doesn't do this is kind of a scam.
I haven't worked in video games since the PS3/XBox360 but everything was bespoke on every platform for every game except for maybe low level audio in my ten years on PC/Mac/PS3/XBox360 and I had to review/examine code for games other than the titles I worked upon. Even games that used game engines/physics engines have heavy customization. I only worked at smaller studios but the practice of starting from almost scratch every time can make it hard to have a standard toolkit of AI, the reuse incentive was low.
Dead on. The price of Ford is predominantly being determined by institutional investors with a strong understanding of the dividend discount model. Investors moving the market on Ford are buying/selling what they believe to be a stable, mature company and are pricing pretty much ZERO potential for innovation into Ford.

Tesla on the other hand is a darling of retail investors attracted to the marketing machine of "Silicon Valley disruption" and they have already priced in a belief that Tesla will win the global automotive market. DDM? What's a DDM?

Meanwhile Ford, GM, and all the other automotive incumbents are investing in the same technologies as Tesla. Is it more likely that Tesla never falters (even slightly)? Or is it more likely one of the 10+ incumbents surprises with a self-driving/electric success?

I know where I put my money. Interest rates will be climbing at the exact same time as Tesla will be attempting to expand their market to a larger audience who always purchase new cars with an accompanying loan. Oil prices are showing no indication of climbing again for years to come. Consumers have just replaced their aging vehicles in record numbers and won't be in the market for a new one for roughly 7-12 years. Good luck Tesla.

Back in the 1980s I worked as the "computer guy" for a McDonald's franchise. Even then we had a crew scheduling program, it was written in BASIC and ran on a '286 IBM PC.

Thing is, it was part of a comprehensive system that handled accounting, inventory, and payroll as well as scheduling.

If we didn't have the integration with payroll, to know who the employees were and their status, it would hardly have been worth using a stand-alone scheduler if that meant maintaining a shadow copy of the employee file.

Where the are drilling, next to the keypad is usually some kind of thin sheet metal or plastic or combination. The 'top' part of the ATM (which houses the PC running it, the cables and a bunch of other electronics) is usually extremely insecure (wafer locks you can pick, flimsy construction).

The hardened part of the ATM is only the safe (which, by design, actually has several large holes in it as well).
You won't be casually drilling through the safe with a hole-saw or other portable equipment without spending a considerable amount of time.

Hi,
Is there a reason this job is not listed on the general jobs page? https://lco.global/jobs
Unfortunately this (truly 100%) is impossible ipso facto the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
Half Life 1, Far Cry 1, Fear 1 had really great A.I. Where HL1 and F1 were corridor shooter, where A.I. is easier, Far Cry 1 had A.I. in open world scenario where soldiers flamked you around a hill and such. The A.I. was written mainly in Lua game script. Sadly the implementation prevented save games.

That's about it. Sadly most game dev studios don't invest resources in good A.I. The stupid mass of soldiers you know from Call of Duty franchise is now everywhere.
Would this be good for a typical web request where you're basically getting a bunch of data from the database and returning it?
Enthusiast safe tech here.

You cannot casually drill a safe. Not talking about your hardware store variety of safe, or a 'fireproof safe'. But a legit safe like you'd find in an ATM has a number of countermeasures to ensure that its not possible to drill the safe in a short amount of time.

Mixed into the steel is usually a number of drill-bit-breaking things like hardened ceramic/steel ball bearings, odd shaped chunks of metal, plastics which all react differently to different attacks in order to ensure that one attack does not compromise the door and that its near-impossible to do quickly.
Bigger safes employ the use of fancy mixtures of concrete and metal to resist even more aggressive attacks like thermal lancing etc by turning the whole door/wall into a giant heat-sink.

Safes are really cool.
No one plays CoD for the single player. Spectacle isn't the focus, multiplayer is.

The whole genre of linear single player FPSes is sort of dead. Lots of mixed genre games that tie in RPG elements with big open worlds and character customization though that are doing quite well and could benefit from better AI.

Even with a friend though we can't reliably beat the top level AI in Ghost Recon Wildlands so it can't be that bad.
Combine the profit motive, a price insensitive customer, and effectively limitless resources. There are no constraints to this optimization scenario.

OK, but then, forgetting about desalination, you'd be able to just build a power plant with this substance and sea water, right? The fact that very few such plants exit then tells us that it would probably be cheaper to just do your desalination with reverse osmosis powered by a conventional power plant.

Scale makes it easy to have an outsized impact.

Consider that a single CPU core costs ~10$/yr in electricity, and that google has a really big computer[1]. The questions are then "how many CPUs does google have", "what percentage of those can any given change affect", and "how many such changes can one engineer make in a year?"

And that's just one type of potential change.

>If I live in London and the distance from me to Paris is 50.000 km, and you live in Rome, 70.000 km from Paris, that does not give me enough to calculate the distance between Rome and London.

Yes, but you do know that the distance from London to Rome is less than 12,000 km, because of the triangle inequality axiom. So if that's too far, that search path is discarded.

Then we just start the process over again, by comparing each subtree back to the original location.

Many of the useful abilities in League of Legends are 'skill shots' - manually aimed, with travel time and wind-up animation, and are thus missable or dodgeable

With superhuman reflexes, a bot can be nearly immune to skillshots in a 1-on-1 scenario. A bot can also always hit skillshots, up to its accuracy of prediction of your movement, and your reflexes in dodging.

In theory, a team of humans might demonstrate better teamwork, communication, and adaptation than a team of 5 AI. However, given how much of the game depends on mechanical 1v1 conflicts, I'd expect a simple bot to beat even the most expert human players.

Yes, and in a free speech society, whomever has the most power and/or money at the time will be able to take advantage of free speech to conduct widespread and targeted disinformation and harassment campaigns - under a false flag of "angry citizens" - that can change (and have changed) the course of history.

It cuts both ways, sadly.
Is there a tutorial on Instructables or YouTube about how to do this?

Not only advanced A.I. is basically dead knowledge in modern games, also Bots.

Quake 3 Arena, Unreal Tournament and many more games had offline bots with whom you could play multiplayer maps. Most relied on predefined paths added with the map editor, but some of them worked without paths as well.

It was impressive how good Unreal Tournament 2004 bots handled cars and vast open maps.

Also RTS games category is dead, it usually also featured advanced A.I. to play against bots on random generated maps. Sadly, games like Age of Empires, Empire Earth, Command & Conquer are dead. (before an off topic comment derails the conversation: I know about the 8 year old SC2, I know about other kind of strategy games but they are not RTS, I know about Moba and tower defence but they are not RTS)
It's not clear to me that category theory, functional programming, what have you, provide insight into why things work. In fact, it seems like they might cut the opposite way -- moving from vicissitudes to simple abstractions.

"The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind" by Julian Jaynes.

When I first saw this ominous-looking tome on a bookstore shelf my heart sank: I knew that I would never, ever be able to title a book to match this one.

Never mind that the book's contents is likely misguided - the title is simply the ultimate author's dream title. Indeed, to paraphrase Keats, it is "a thing of beauty [and] a joy forever."

> If you want to just drop a kid down so they become a citizen, it is a hundred times easier to do it on a travel visa and it always will be. Regardless of how many state green cards there are, it will always be orders of magnitude easier to get a travel visa, hop on a plane, and stay under the radar for a couple months.

That requires that you can afford to buy a plane ticket and then spend nine months not working while paying US cost of living and pregnancy-related medical expenses out of pocket, which puts it out of reach for most people in the world. An easy-to-get work visa turns the economics around.

And it's not just people who come here exclusively for that reason. More people means more children. If the additional people are unskilled laborers who make low wages and pay little in taxes, someone else has to make up the difference.

> When I said immigrants pay more into taxes than they take out that was was a statement of fact[1], not opinion. They pay the same taxes as us and see severely reduced benefits, even at very low incomes.

The article is only considering social security against itself. Someone making $20K/year is paying <$2500/year in social security tax. One child in public school is four times that in itself.

> Cut federal benefits entirely for them and require the states to pay if you like. It's a tiny problem.

Take away the federal money and the states won't be able to afford it. Or won't want to pay it. The problem isn't social security, it's schools and healthcare.

And it's not like you can just leave children to grow up without schools or let infections go untreated.

> If cross-border crime and employment is a problem it would be pretty trivial to have an exclusion zone on the border of states that don't want immigrants. Immigrants wouldn't be able to have residences in that area.

For many states (e.g. Pennsylvania, New Hampshire) a 100 mile exclusion zone would have multiple other states fully inside it.

You know what's the fastest way to curb H-1B fraud?

Make it so that if an H-1B visa holder complains, and their complaint is found to be valid, they are entitled to apply for a green card immediately, and get EAD for the duration of their application.
I'm not even talking about grant writing. I'm talking about things like negotiating licensing agreements for private industry, contract negotiation to make sure publication and graduate students are protected, etc.
Most of the consulting companies like Infosys, CTS etc work as such: They hire tons of people fresh out of college. Some of those have contractual obligations called "bonds" which force them to stay with company for 2 years or so. That is the stick. Later comes the carrot in form of H1 sponsorship a year or two down the line. So the median work ex for H1 tends to be 3-4 years.
Then there are those who change jobs simply to get the promise of being sponsored. I know couple of people, one with Amazon, with over 8 years of work-ex joining as software analyst because it helps companies pay them least of salaries. If senior dev is the new norm they will shape the supply accordingly and try to suppress salaries in that direction.
The only way out was(is?) to provide salary directions too but vague wording allowing companies to include non monetary benefits will again be suspectible to manipulation. But not doing so means startups will not be able to afford engineers with only monetary benefits.
It is a very difficult problem to get around.
