    I finished Primal Hunter book 4. I enjoyed it but I think all of these books are more enjoyable in the newbie farm stage than the mid or late stages. I wasn't really bothered by the smirking, but could definitely tell this book didn't have a ton of editing and rewriting. Gotta pump one out every...

    My bio teacher loved maple trees. So much that several weeks were dedicated to them and especially their reproductive cycle with paintstaking detail and harsh grading. Once a year I go to the grove of trees she does most of her research in and I cut down a maple tree or two.

    Discrete math and linear algebra, maybe. But the genpop calc classes? waste. of. time.

    Also to this day I think I'm worse at understanding chemistry and biology concepts because than other applied sciences because I hated those waste of time classes in college. Everything I learn in astrophysics / astronomy is a fresh ground of tilled soil ready to explore, while anything close to...

    I spent so many hours in an abandoned corner of a Univ Michigan library trying to ram mathematic garbage into my head for my comp sci degree just to get an B or A and move onto useful stuff. I use calculus every week or so at my job and I feel like the three semesters of calculus I took did fuck...

    Yeah it'd have to be a combination of a chat GPT bot + something like photomath (which I had never seen before Hateyou mentioned it and is pretty cool)

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    I wonder how you'd formulate questions like "find X" but seriously, a question like If you were asked to find the equation for this line using X process or whatever (beyond just the x/y intercepts), I wonder how you'd feed that into ChatGPT and how that'd differ from something like...

    Hi-Fi Rush looks pretty cool. I've never seen that concept before in an action RPG.

    I can definitely see a huge upside to setting up a semi automated system to generate chatgptish responses on higher profile forums. 2024 is going to be bots talking to bots even more than ever.

    The Astronomy Thread

    I feel like there's a decent chance that when we finally make an Epstein drive it'll be a collaborative effort from nerds pursuing dumbass ideas for decades in a DARPA / University setting, some CERN universe-breaking bullshit and a SpaceX harvesting something that finally works. Anything that...

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    From my experience there are alwayyyys dumbass complications or new features to tag on (ex: the binary nonsense, plus the data I wanted was actually in some json and the search was just the key, so I had to decode the json object or search for it or whqatever). So I rarely try to engineer a bash...

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    another cool usage of the tool is that if you need to evaluate alternative functions for whatever reason it's easy to generate. Ex, the above request with glob.

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    Thanks. There ended being a technical hurdle where the files had a mixed encoding of ascii and binary and the string that I wanted was in the ascii bits, so this result didn't help. I got access back and tried to engineer a request that would produce a working version but couldn't. Everything I...

    Nice, I finally got a task that is perfect for getting kickstarted with chatGPT... It's going to take me all week now to write a python script that recursively searches a directory structure for files that have a given string and then dumps the value of that string and the filepath to a csv...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Other than Fortnite and the Matrix Demo I'm not sure. It's still a pretty recent release and most game devs releasing in 2022 or early 2023 would have been better served with UE4. There's a lot of unreleased games using it though...

    I tried to come up with the inverse of the above prompt about Johnny Appleseed to see if I could get chatgpt to generate a similar output and failed. I just don't have antonyms for words like equality, colonialism and intersectionality.

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    I kinda imagine that among all the content thrown into the machine, peer review articles, news reports and text books are weighted highly. There is a tremendous amount of convergence on those tropes in that data which the machine senses as safe. If OpenAI "open sourced" it and shitlords made...

    It's funny that you mention Lord of the Flies, since it's a book I tried to listen to (I listen to a looot of audio books) a while back and the only narrator I could find is the author, who made the experience fairly poor and I tapped out in the first chapter. Livres audio et plus | Votre...

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    I think the more specific you get with the request the easier it is to spot answers. I gave it the below prompt and anyone who was grading this response would immediately know it was just a technical word salad with incorrect equations / citations.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Yeah that Facebook article from Fake News Network is pretty damning. I'll laugh if when Starfield comes out there are only binary gender options and it's just one of the 100+ bullshit promises that Todd makes about the game.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I never played FO76 but at this point I don't see it as a huge failure. They took a game made by another studio, it was shit, and then they continued to improve it until it's a well-liked game. Kind of like TESO or No Man's Sky.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    As someone who develops using Unreal these days I'd love it if they ditched Gambryo in like, 2000 when they made Oblivion, much less in 2023, like, give it up guys. However, I don't see how that relates to Bioware. Don't they use Frostbite and Unreal? And for the wokeness, what'd they do to...
