That’s fair. Forgot about the delay on the App Store. Still I’d say the pipeline of Wii gamer to iPhone gamer is pretty small. Maybe more on the developer side than customer.

Phones put gaming consoles in everyone’s hand and made non gamers into casual gamers.

since the Wii

I mean the iPhone came out a year later…

I had an idea for a sci-fi setting where criminals are held in stasis like Demolition Man or Minority Report except the point isn’t to keep them away from society or rehabilitate them. It’s to rob them of their time in the present assuming that things are only going to bet worse.

I’m surprised someone got an AI to work with the constraints of proper monochrome pixel art.

I don’t understand, why wouldn’t the AI simply write its own version of whatever software it needs to license?

Bought it in 2018. Tried to convince him to buy a Kia.

Guy randomly stopped me to ask me how I like my Model 3 when I was getting out of it in a parking lot last week. First time that’s happened in like 6 years.

PSSST

“It’s pronounced PS/2”

For everyone who never tried it, they had honest to god paid employees in Horizon Worlds to help players get oriented. I cannot imagine a worse job.

The one I ran into was standing in front of some “game” experience that was like…jumping on tiles or some shit.

But I thought the whole line was “hOrIzOn WoRlDs iSnt the MeTaVeRsE.”

Followed by no explanation of what the metaverse is.

There’s a remote job listing on LinkedIn right now for $125/hr to train an AI how to do schematic capture and layout. Like it’s right in the listing that you’re training an AI to do your job. Insanity.

Ask it which is heavier: 20 pounds of gold or 20 feathers.

Vibe coding guy wrote unit tests for our embedded project. Of course, the hardware peripherals aren’t available for unit tests on the dev machine/build server, so you sometimes have to write mock versions (like an “adc” function that just returns predetermined values in the format of the real analog-digital converter).

Claude wrote the tests and mock hardware so well that it forgot to include any actual code from the project. The test cases were just testing the mock hardware.

Definitely not Mandela, but maybe it’s something Google never officially confirmed.

Here’s an article about Ingress, the spiritual predecessor to PkmnGo. https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21628936-200-why-googles-ingress-game-is-a-data-gold-mine/

I feel like this was common knowledge back in 2016. Is this surprising to anyone?

And you realize that it’s taking a while to delete that small handful of files.

In ECC memory?

I think it’s the first time it’s happened since I upgraded my hardware over a year ago. 64 gigs of RAM and I rarely use more than 30% of it.

Reset button not working, but power button working is quite odd.

Yeah makes me think something hardware level.

Are the server and chargers close to each other? Can you reliably trigger it with the car charger?

No. The car charges every night. This is the first time this has happened.
