I dunno, I've personally seen ChatGPT produce better writing and more interesting game mechanics compared to D4.

But I guess it's not that different from having young blood with good ideas overridden by profit hungry management who just want to milk the IP. I don't think it's so much AI vs human but how risk-averse the bean counters are. D4 felt stagnant an hour in...
All the power to the project, but it's not an alternative until some way to make and manage sales is added.

Too bad Web3.0 crowd is all about hype and make-money-quick schemes, otherwise it's a perfect fit for the problem of selling musing directly.

Trans-border sales/transfers without crypto is a pain, thousands of musicians get locked out of their money because politicians keep playing their idiotic "big boy" games.

There are also 300,000 square miles of national forest/grasslands which is 3x the size of the UK. All of which is freely available with the right to dispersed camping for up to 14 days at one spot, after which you must move camp 5 miles to camp more.

Opinions on property rights aside there is no lack of land to explore and enjoy.

Aside from there there are also state parks and forests, though the states define their own terms of use and enjoyment around them.

I’ll give you this: I was not aware of the Brownell-CIA connection at all, so thanks for that.

The common American perception of Orwell as anti-communist had something to do with that. But even if there had not been such a direct connection, that would have happened anyway. The Cold War made all political dialogue unidimensional for almost 50 years. Even today many people's minds are so shriveled they cannot encompass the thoughts of someone critical of both American capitalism and Soviet state communism - as your comments demonstrate.

Any serious examination of Orwell’s writing will show he was resolutely of the left. He was a socialist intellectual who was disdainful of the cultural fringes that the movement attracted. He largely romanticized the working class as naturally virtuous and with the right instincts for solidarity. In that way, and only that way, was he similar to right-wingers who dreamed of a return to pastoral tradition.
For many years I've been worrying that this becomes harder and harder as surveillance technology improves. I'm also concerned that free media makes it much easier for foreign powers to disrupt things. An issue that doesn't destabilize authoritarian countries. These two potential trends or forces have me very worried about the long-term future of mankind with authoritarian becoming a one-way road.

Well sure, but again, that's your (i'm guessing you're american) companies doing the censorship. And you're talking about entertainment, while most people want other information (mostly "news") uncensored.

With access to only government-approved and censored media, then iraq has weapons of mass destruction, putin has only two days of missles left,... since mid-2022, jeffery eppstein killed himself, and only cnn can legally read hillarys emails on wikileaks, etc.
I've seen a lot of people getting Xiaomi air purifiers. Had no idea they put DRM on the filters, and they cost more. Really glad I went with Winix years ago, cheaper filters that last longer, and no DRM. I don't get why people can't just put a reminder in a calendar in the future to let them know to replace the filter instead of dealing with this stuff.
I’d argue every time they allow Sledgehammer Games to take the lead on a CoD title, it goes wrong.

MWII was a breath of fresh air amidst an over abundance of twitchy ultra-arcade shooters. It struck a balance between the arcade experience we expect, but deliberately slowing it down such that reaction time didn’t dominate gameplay.

In contrast, MWIII from SHG is a step backwards to such an extreme that along with Vanguard, I don’t think they’re qualified to be anything but a support studio for the CoD franchise.
Palworld is basically Ark: Survival Evolved with Pokemon plus some elements from Breath of the Wild. That said, it's less buggy (and better performing) at launch than Ark is 9 years after release, and unlike Ark it isn't designed to require you to quit your job and have a full guild with set work schedules just to get some cool pets.

Most of my vacations in the last several years have been to do with state parks in the Southeastern US. We've been to several in Georgia, Alabama, and North and South Carolina. In a lot of these cases, we would stage at one park (or in some cases, not-a-park) for several days and go out to another place or park each day.

I've lived in Georgia for most of my 40 years, and most of these parks I had never heard of until we went there. I think almost every single one has been a really good experience. And it's very affordable for my family of 5. We don't have to go far. They're all a little bit different.

I've seen Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon, and other sites of note in the US. They are really neat, and can be worth the trip. But I'm pretty sure at this point that I'll never even see everything that my home state has to offer in my lifetime, so I'm pretty content to stick to reasonable driving distance.

Please don't lie and mis characterize the situation before commenting. Thank you.

Inflation going down and unemployment going down doesn't characterize the overall situation for the last year.

What your saying a month of the opposite trend indicates the US economy has no more problems? That china can't possibly ever have a month of upward ticks?

My statement is meaningless. That's the point of my statement. It's an example to show how meaningless the statement about China is.

I'm sick and tired of people who get emotional and are patriotic. Why can't people be level headed and just talk about facts rather then "defend" their stance or their own country.

Turkey is odd, everyone over 40 has retired and everyone below 30 is a student. About %8 of the whole population is enrolled in a higher education institution.

The labor participation rate is among the lowest, although increasing. Many of the students and retirees are in employment as the life became harder, also the women who traditionally used to be housewives are getting close to western levels of employment.

The “everyone above 40 is retired” is not exaggerated, it’s due to some populist policies in The 90s but it spilled over once again last year when Erdoğan caved and granted right for retirement after 20 years of working(many people have retired at 38, 18 + 20).

Turkey is in a deep trouble and the central bank won’t be able to do much.

On the other hand, its location is very favorable and the Turkish politicians are masters of milking it. Also, the population is still young and being close to EU and even a candidate state with deeply integrated economy, Turkey has a great potential to actually make this system sustainable.

Also, the country is an engineering powerhouse as you might have noticed with its drones and other weapons and multiple tech Unicorns.

But at the same time its politics have become more and more Islamic as the population becomes more and more secular.

So yeah, overall Turkey is a weird place. Lots of troubles and lots of opportunities and IMHO not easy to explain with western mental models.

However, as a someone who lived in Turkey on and off, I can tell you that the country’s life quality has been deteriorating steadily and quickly for the last 10 years without a break. 90s Eastern Europe vibes.

Now, I'm thinking as part of the backpack system, it has a protection system similar to the Mars rover that inflated a large inflatable shield that allowed the landing without any kind of chutes. So from the backpack, this shield would inflate either from a manual pull of a cord or when it detects you've taken a tumble.

We have a deep-founded believe that the atom is the core of reality.

And everything emerges from there.

This materialism stems from René Descartes and his fellow philosophers.

And in the West it's often subconsciously combined it with evolutional theory. consciousness developed because it was useful somehow. However that's a very big leap to make.

Both theories have good arguments going for them but are very theoretical and need a lot more proof. Yet they form the basis for pretty much all Western thought

From a scientific perspective we have no idea how to create new consciousness or what it is.

From a human's experience it's more the other way around, reality is an emerging property of consciousness.

At the same time we also learned that matter & time is not as solid as we thought a few centuries ago.
Very glad to see people coming up with alternatives here. Plenty of artists sell music directly on their sites in various ways and this seems like another way to do that. I still use Bandcamp for now, but I get that extra fuzzy feeling when I can buy even more directly!

Here's an article with a lot more detail about the treaty, and the efforts of Western countries to narrow it and of Russia and China to broaden it [1]

Those places did detailed surveys but the results were uninteresting; it’s always something abstract like long compile times, long CI times, etc. then the next year the company presents all the concrete ways they made things faster and the same themes repeat.

There are three problems. The first is that people who can accurately point out the problem are outweighed by a bunch of people who are just unhappy and generate a response for the sake of participation / being prompted. This means that you can address the pain point you think you’ve identified only for sentiment to remain unchanged so you try to tackle the next point and the cycle repeats.

The second is that things like “slow compile times” may have hundreds of different reasons so if you improve compile times in aggregate by 20% you’ve not solved anyone’s specific day to day compile time pain point where they normally spend many 10s compiling which sees a reduction to 8s but the expensive compile which runs infrequently (both because less needed or because it’s so slow) takes 1-4 hours. It’ll maybe see a reduction into the 48min-3.2 hour range which is substantial but not enough to be felt or it may be unaffected because the improvements aren’t measuring that slow build and it’s not a focus (eg maybe it has a bad dependency chain that pulls in way too much). The causes of why that’s slow can be hard to tease out correctly and engineers are incentivized to make the “biggest bang for the buck” changes that sound impressive and quantifiable (20% reduction in compile times across the company vs I made this team happier and it’ll maybe show up in an end of year survey if I’m lucky)

The third is that the rate at which certain kinds of things get worse (long CI and compile times) keeps up or usually outperforms the pace at which things get better (eg 1000 developers adding to compile and test times cannot be beat by a team of 10 engineers spending their time on speeding things up).
No I’m saying it makes total sense that neurons can model the environment and act upon them. That isn’t at all hard to grasp. What is unexplainable is the fundamental awareness of being a thing at all.
Do you have any data that shows this is actually what's happening? For the economy as a whole, inflation adjusted wages have been slowly creeping up since the end of the pandemic, which seems contradictory to what you think is happening.

There's also the idea of the "hive mind" of ants and bees, so maybe quite literally our brains efficiently evolved as a meta-hive-mind internalized by our network of neurons.
Did you find out from them?
With a human brain you're got

1) A huge stream on sensory data only some of which gets promoted to conscious awareness.

2) Some of that raw data and other conscious outputs are persisted into working, short, and long term memory.

3) And your consciousness works recursively using (2) as well as (1) as inputs.

All the stuff in GPT that gets called "memory" in machine learning seems much more like (1) and it lacks any ability to persist data outside its context window so we're still missing something.
That’s assuming salaries follow inflation, a big hypothesis.
How can you prove what country a criminal is from? You would have to make vpns and tor illegal so that it is impossible to mask your connection and that will never happen.

This has been the hardest adjustment for me moving from Montana to the deep South. The south has definite advantages for me at this point. Stability, easier growing crops and animals, better infrastructure, etc. But not being able to just walk all over the place is hard. It was a lot easier to get away and I definitely feel claustrophobic (some of it is no mountains). I know opportunities here are better for my family but I miss home.

I mean. You could write program with a "mind" object that recieves a bunch of data through various sensory "experience". From the perspective of the "mind", the data is "subjective", and the mind is "implemented" in exactly a way that it can represent itself as an entity "I".

I don't think the biological reality is conceptually any more complicated, except that the mind and data are complex in exactly a way that completely hides the abstraction, roughly by being very good at ignoring meaningless artifacts of abstraction.

The hard part isn't imagining such a subjectivity, but imagining that I am that.
> The Bandcamp fridays, the curation, the interviews, the selectors, the IRL presence at Record Fairs or at events like Record Store Day...

I have a completely different experience.

Bandcamp will survive because it's primarily an independent online music / record / merch store. All that other stuff is just .... it's bloat and fluff that gets in the way of the music tbh.

There's no evidence in the article substantiating the claim that most of the 'war chips' are made by US and EU companies. Only that a large amount of chips are still heading into Russia.

I would suspect that most of their domestic chip-making capabilities are focused on their latest generation of weapons like their hypersonic missiles. There's little reason to not throw COTS chips into drones and other mass produced, low cost items.

There's tons of legislation on e.g. accessibility that is quite expensive for companies to comply with. At some point in the past, I'm sure quite a few people would have considered these expenses absurd as well.

If there's a clear benefit to society, I don't think it would be an absurd regulation at all, and there's precedent for equally fine-grained/detailed regulations in many industries.

Another one of that category I'd love to see: Mandate at least one secure 2FA method other than SMS-OTP.

Have continued using it as an artist and listener, and there's no way I'd have known anything changed from the site. They updated the terms of use, but only as necessary to reflect the change in ownership. And they are still doing Bandcamp Fridays, where the company gives up its cut on the first Friday each month, even though there was no promise or other indication they'd continue before the sale. I've seen rumors that support is getting worse, but only from reporters and not users, and it's a pretty easy site to use so I wouldn't think poor support is that much of a problem.

I'd rather Bandcamp be independent and am still upset they sold out, but I like Songtradr much better than Epic as an owner. Their main business is facilitating B2B sales, which I think of as the same category as what Bandcamp does. They don't own music (except incidentally, from acquisitions) and don't have ties to RIAA and major labels like Spotify does.

Main source for Songtradr info, although I've also done some outside reading: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37699552

a good public restroom needs to be able to be used by the public. i'm guessing that if you were visiting a foreign city/country and needed to use the restroom and found a nice, clean public restroom to use, you'd probably not want to be rained on while relieving yourself.
> It's just trying to verbally paper over a problem and then claim you're in fact helping somehow

Yup, plenty of people say that's the entire reason for the euphemism treadmill. You look good using the new terminology but nobody is helped.

And the people actually affected by the problem generally aren't consulted, and don't care at all about the terminology because it's the least of their problems.
both games are being developed with the help/input of sc2 pros looking for the next thing. IMHO zerospace seems to play closer more similarly to sc2.

Yes, QFH antennas are directional. But the other benefit is they're circularly polarized which is a benefit in satellite communication because you don't know how the satellite is oriented in space.

The innovation here is the antenna that's normally static and somewhat fragile is now collapsible and part of the woven structure. Really neat idea.

Apparently, something that can be replaced with the word "For". It's odd, because FAO takes a LOT more text to get it's point across compared to "For" even though technically they are both the same number of letters.

Consider also that "For" sounds natural, but in this case, FAO does not.
