Are those statements contradictory? Like aren’t big crowds and momentum exactly what you’d expect during a “honeymoon phase,” if that’s what was going on?
I don’t particularly think that is what’s going on, but the framing doesn’t make sense to me.
Seems like a cool concept that they just didn’t execute super well.
Like having two behavioral simulations (cast simulation interacting with props you place, and audience simulation that reacts to where you place the camera’s attention) that you need to navigate sounds cool, and bound to lead to some interesting and funny emergent experiences… but it sounds like the implementation was just undercooked.
I’d probably still give it a try on sale or something but g o d d a m m i t does that Corporate Memphis art style rub me the wrong way. Lmk when the San Andreas texture mod drops though.
FocalBoard from MatterMost is pretty good. It doesn’t have feature parity with Trello-- that’s out of reach for almost everybody-- but it does pretty much everything I want. Plus it’s FOSS, so you can extend it if you want (and are capable).
The chair gives +15 comfort and the painting gives +20 inspiration and if there’s at least one empty tile next to it the effect covers a 50m radius so I don’t see the problem???
You pepper a few of these on every floor and as long as you don’t overuse Crunch Time, this will carry you through the midgame with basically zero upkeep.
Wellness rooms are OP if anything tbh.
Pig butchering?
Tbf, I don’t think wagon trains typically dealt with RPG-toting wolves.
We need an offensive conservatism, not merely one that tries to prevent the left from doing things we don’t like.
Doing a great job at the offensive part, fellas 👌
Idk, I find it useful 🤷
That was a wild ride that I was not expecting.
You taking 10 to 30 years to ask yourself that is exactly what private equity is betting on.
Ah okay, lol. Sounds like you’ve got it under control.
Oh, no, I mean I have an account, but I never (…exceedingly rarely) go on Facebook itself. messenger.com is just the messenger with no feed or other features, and there’s a standalone mobile app called Messenger as well, same idea. I use those when I need to interact with someone over Facebook so that I’m not exposed to most of the crap.
I don’t know anything about using it totally without any account.
You know, you can just use Messenger on its own, on desktop web or mobile. I also need to use Messenger in some limited capacity and I have no idea what my feed looks like :)
Right! For music, I think it’s even like saying… The process of making music is much more than just literally performing it… But it’d be weird for the creative process to not contain any playing-of-music that looked in some ways like performance.
Tbh I think alot of the “thinking” still looks like visible work though. I feel like the article makes it seem a little too much like there’s nothing observable, nothing to show or demonstrate, until POOF the code comes out.
But I find that I often need to be doing visible stuff to make progress… Like devising little experiments and running them to check my assumptions about the system (or discover something new about it), and making little incremental changes, running them, using the output to guide the next thing I do… Even occasionally spending the time to write a failing test that I plan to make pass.
So I’m 100% on board with letting managers believe this “80% of the work is invisible” thing… But I think as advice for programmers, it’s really important to not get too stuck in your head and spend too much time not kinetically interacting with the system that you’re trying to change.
I am on board with this type of belligerent-but-not-destructive trolling. Do carry on.
An intelligent entity told us to do it. Humanity: Nah
An artificially intelligent entity told us to do it. Humanity: Well shit let’s get to work!
And this is it: Many of those “AI will be so smart that it can solve these problems for us!” arguments refer to problems where having a “smart” enough solution isn’t the problem… Getting people to care/notice/participate/get out of the way is.
They should make the versions UUIDs instead of integers so that we don’t make assumptions about their ordinal relationships.
