Yeah I feel like you need to be confident in yourself before you start dating. You can’t make your happiness dependent on someone else. It’s not fair on them and it’s dangerous for you.

The real question is will the new CEO get the leather jacket, or has he taken it with him?

American news is kind of over the top, and there’s nothing else really to talk about. Seriously the coverage they giving this you to thought he had been assassinated by Chinese spies.

I mean I’m opposed fundamentally to reducing people’s rights for no readily apparent reason simply because some pearl clutches, who it doesn’t in fact affect, are upset about it. In fact I think that if a bill is proposed that pearl clutches get upset about, I’m all the more in support for it, fuck these guys.
Why on earth do we spend any time listening to them? We don’t take advice from flat earthers on science funding, so why do we need to listen to religious nuts when it comes to trans rights? In fact there’s plenty in the church that would be opposed to this bill simply because it’s infringing on people’s freedoms, so it’s not even the entire church. This fact alone should kill the discussion. I’m so sick of these arse wipes constantly trying to re-litigate things simply because they don’t like the outcome.

I’m confused about how their orientated. Because in the first panel it looks like they’re laying down but there’s no space for their legs to go in the second panel so there must be bent over in an l shape which seems uncomfortable.

Seems sort of old that they would then release open weight models so the restriction can just be removed.

I suspect that a lot of them are like Flat Eartherts, the know what they’re saying is false, but they get a certain kick out of being contrary on the internet, and the rest of probably bots that aren’t worth responding to.

I haven’t even better defense. I never read any of the corporate emails anyway so I have no idea what we’re doing. Perhaps we’ve invented a space elevator, I wouldn’t know because the announcement was sent by the CEO in an email entitled Michael’s Musings and I automatically delete that stuff.

Honestly they look like they’d be annoying. They look like this other people who post on Facebook “I don’t do drama” and yet somehow drama happens.

According to a few people in here who actually have access to the developer console no code isn’t included in the disclosure requirements. It’s only generated assets.

game developers are relying on a small number of game engine vendors
That’s why open source solutions are so important, but obviously they take time to reach maturity.

I cannot decide if you’re actually that stupid or you’re doing it for a bit.

Well of course it depends on the child.
For example if we’d known you were going to grow up to be a disingenuous pillock we could have spared the food resources to raise you.
An actual example of why you have no point by the way.
Centralism isn’t the midpoint between two positions it’s the recognition that two sides can have valid argument but it is almost never the midpoint.
- Comment on Big Walk Used AI In 'The Final Stretch' Of Development, Kicking Off Intense Awards Debate 4 days ago:
I think you only require disclosure if you include AI generated assets. So AI generated models, sound, music. But if you basically just googling stuff it’s fine. I can’t see how you could enforce any other interpretation.
- Comment on Big Walk Used AI In 'The Final Stretch' Of Development, Kicking Off Intense Awards Debate 4 days ago:
Everyone keeps trying to mansplain the process or the architecture, or algorithms involved
Because you’re making assumptions about how it works and those assumptions are wrong. I’m sorry if you find that offensive but you need to be educated before you can make an informed decision you seem to be unhappy with this.
Coding with agents if you were a programmer before is a harrowing but also empowering
So you do know how to code, which makes your prayer in conjunctuality of the process kind of hard to comprehend.

Except that’s covered in the article. It was able to provide some semblance of a solution and then they were able to hammer that into an actual solution. So the assistant’s provided by the AI, while not absolute, was demonstrably useful.
I’d recommend reading the article.

The reactionary types tend not to be developers, they tend to be people who don’t really know anything about programming or 3D modelling, or how much annoying boilerplate code you have to type just to get a rectangle on the screen.
Discussion of this topic requires technically minded people, not vague feelings.
- Comment on Big Walk Used AI In 'The Final Stretch' Of Development, Kicking Off Intense Awards Debate 4 days ago:
But that’s the point that is an unreasonable stance. Unless you go and live in the woods or something you’re going to be interacting with AI produced code, so what we need to do is stop automatically having the knee jerk reaction of “AI bad” and instead have an actual productive nuance discussion about where we want to draw the line.
- Comment on Big Walk Used AI In 'The Final Stretch' Of Development, Kicking Off Intense Awards Debate 4 days ago:
If you read the article it’s far from AI slop. There is an important nuance discussion that we are not having and automatically calling all AI slop is not helpful.
- Comment on Big Walk Used AI In 'The Final Stretch' Of Development, Kicking Off Intense Awards Debate 4 days ago:
Only in extremist would think that non-extreme position is centralism. You’re already arguing from a position of bad faith. You refuse to accept the possibility that any use of AI can be ethical now that’s your choice to accept but you can’t really expect that to become the majority viewpoint.
- Comment on Big Walk Used AI In 'The Final Stretch' Of Development, Kicking Off Intense Awards Debate 4 days ago:
If that’s the extent of their AI use then that’s fine I mean that’s basically just googling stuff on steroids. That’s all I ever use AI for. This is why I find valves AI disclosure tag to be slightly problematic, I don’t think it really drills down enough to define what “AI used in this game” means, so then it’s up to the individual developer to make a value judgment and not everyone will agree with where they particularly draw the line. We need a line in the sand that everyone can agree upon or at least everyone understands.
On a side note, how on Earth does unity not have the ability to cull shadows that are outside of the view frostrum, that’s unbelievably stupid. I’m pretty sure City Skylines 2 has a similar issue.
