On “the actual
environment/background is not made of Lego” complaint:
while Bricktales looks neat, its “environment/background” is tiny.
For anyone interested in a more Minecraft+LEGO experience, with an actual world made entirely of LEGO that you can interact with, check out LEGO Worlds. (currently 80% off on steam)
That’s quite interesting.
Although it would need access to an already configured and fully functional environment to actually run this.
I don’t think we’re quite at the point yet where it’s able to find the correct script, pass it to the appropriate environment and report the correct answer back to the user.
And I would expect that when integration with external systems like compilers/interpreters is added, extra care would be taken to limit the allocated resources.
Also, when it does become capable of running code itself, how do you know, for a particular prompt, what it ran or if it ran anything at all, and whether it reported the correct answer?
You don’t need to correct something everyone already knows is an exaggeration (and I agree it doesn’t seem very socially aware to do so) but this is a political discussion on the internet, so
What if they said “Hey I know you’re being hyperbolic, but for anyone who’s interested, here’s the number estimated by experts…”?
The only difference here is tone.
I’m not sure why they only shared numbers for minke whales, as these don’t seem to be hunted anymore in Iceland in contrast to fin whales, whom the article was about.
Global fin whale population was estimated in 2018 by IUCN to have been around 100000.

Yes, correcting hyperbole with relevant information is bad, actually.
As always, the dose makes the poison.
A common scenario is people picking the wrong species and then not just eating a small bite, but cooking an entire meal and eating that.
A small bite may not kill you, but just one mushroom (50g) can be enough to do it.
There are some toxic mfs out there and they can be mistaken for edible lookalikes by inexperienced foragers.
Absolutely. This game had so much more potential than was realized.
