Your reply was _materially_ better than the previous reply.

I had always heard "Hertz, Armstrong, and Marconi". 73!

Interestingly that naming scheme is debunked on the adjacently-linked wikipedia page on the subject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etymology_of_ham_radio#Hertz%E...

ChatGPT isn't even aware of Sora when I asked it to generate a video. Like why not combine the interface for prompting? Sounds like their having issues scaling a common interface so each team is making their own.

I actually can't imagine what it will do for video gaming. Maybe enhancing cut-scenes, but then why can't they just do the performance and rendering using the gaming engine in realtime?

Perhaps AI will help with procedural generation of environmental details within a pre-built game world. This way the AI isn't burdened with generating the whole scene, but only the clutter of objects and textures - things that usually take a long time to build by hand.

For example in Train or Truck Simulators, I see examples where someone has put effort into making that farmhouse in the distance nicely detailed, but other times it's just a simple structure. If AI were tasked with "distant details", the whole game could look more polished.

Agreed, but I imagine the only setback is for the insurance company.

An insurance company spreads losses, it does not make them disappear. From a country’s economic point of view, the destruction of an economically productive thing is just as much of a loss, regardless of whether a single business and group of investors/shareholders experiences it, or if it is spread amongst various insurers, and hence their insureds via increased premiums in the future.

Yeah! And surgical tubing slingshots. A very small construction project where they can learn to use a speed square. Tune the slingshot or catapult until it can launch a handball into a 1x1 meter square some distance away. Also a great way to wear the kids out having to run and collect the ball.

I found the unsubscribe process tedious but not write-a-whole-blog-about-it-tedious.

These tedious practices need to be called out, and blogging about it is one way. If everyone thought like this comment, then we won't complain about anything to others. That's not a method that makes the world a better place.

Triggered. Missing from this is the experience where the reviewer rejects for something trivial, then you fix the issue in 1 minute, resubmit, and finally have to wait 24 hours for them to check their code review requests again.

Or they open up the floodgates after that, listing numerous other unrelated "issues" with your code. In my mind you get one stab. After that STFU.

Maybe this is the Killswitch engineer they were joking about doing their job
