Yeah I'd like to see another journalist take a tour through their new area. They've certainly gotten enough funding to improve their facilities.

It'll always be consistently difficult to time and control your M&B guys well because it takes so much time for a line of 30+ horses to line up together and then charge and because the timing is so critical. It could take 2 minutes for your horses to get into position, but if they hit the enemy...

It's not so much that I think all the current champs are doping. It's that I think it's likely and just assume they are and am not surprised when they get busted. Anytime I hear of a pro-athlete coming out and giving a % of people in his sport that are using it's like 80%. Only ones I...

Oh man 50 people is way too many unless they massively increased the mob spawn size and subsequently improved the engine. I don't know if I posted SS in this thread, but I added spawns of 100+ dudes running around and would waste them with my 20 killers. The engine would start to choke...

You make a lot of assumptions here. I haven't banned Kedwyn and Vitality. Then again the version they played a year ago in alpha was more up to date than the version I'm playing now in release, hahahaha =(

I think there is little reason to think that Crocop wasn't using steroids in Pride. CC wasn't the hardest kicker in human history, but man I doubt we'll ever see another kickboxer in MMA with the reputation for leveling people with a LHK. There's not much value in arguing whether a...

After reading the above interview I remembered more and more of what I learned when I read up on this a year ago or so. The difference between what soylent is doing and what MRE/meal replacement shakes do is he's not necessarily trying to make a convenient replacement for eating meals, he's...

I think I understand your point though. We're talking about 3lbs of flesh and blood that do something we can't even theorize how to do with as much computing power as we can build. To me the biggest gap involves the fact that the brain isn't a static physical entity that changes electromagnetic...

I think every single person who is in contention for GOAT used banned substances at one point or another in their competition, and likely used it during their prime that we're using to compare them to each other with. That includes GSP, A. Silva, JJ, Fedor.

Yeah I've used kcachegrind to visualize valgrind output, I think it looks really beautiful and is a different and visual way to look at your codebase: Useless optimization is a huge sin in computer science, but sometimes it's fun to spend time taking routine that runs in 10ms and figure out...

I really hate the character art direction in EQN. It's like all the annoying things about cartoony characters. I mean why is his knee as thick as his waist?

I'd also he interested in learning more about static analysis. It is something I've wanted to try but never had the time budget for.

I'm not a neuroscientist but isn't the entire mass of the human brain considered computing mass? I mean if my cerebellum is just doing low-level muscle memory routines to ride a bike it seems like computing. If my occipital lobe is inversing images from my fucked up upside down eyes, it's...

I hope EQN's ip survives. I didn't pay much attention to it but a persistent online world with player control over the geography would be amazing.

ah see it hits it no problem.

Sorry, I didn't do a sanity check on it so I don't know if 10 meters is too close. If so then make it 30 meters

GSP's game was to ground and grind opponents. Silva's game was to bait them into attacking so he could counter attack. You can fault GSP for not being aggressive, risky or powerful enough to stop opponents. You can also fault Silva for not being aggressive enough to initiate confrontations...

ESO? No it's not as good as DAI, but they're different games.

Extremely.

Here's the ability in action: ArcheAge [JP] PvP Daggerspell - YouTube What's interesting is that the set says, "Has a low chance of triggering X" rather than what I've seen quoted from Korea/Alpha: Obviously triggering the apocalypse every 40 casts is fun, but if you can't hop into a group...

What Dumar says is somewhat correct. Software is such amorphous field that process management can be incredibly difficult and it's very common for projects to have a budget that encapsulates only a subset of the work needed to release a useful product. Plus you'll always have fuck ups or people...

Yeah, this is a huge issue for robotics. Existing chemistry using zinc/manganese dioxide, nickel-metal hydride or lithium-ion will probably never get us there. If you look at the pace of technology in the last 20 years nearly everything is making exponential gains except for batteries. We hear...

Haha, you missed the entire point of my post. I didn't think you would. Lurking, I saw this a few months ago, it's a pretty neat hobbyist robot. Food prep robotics will be a huge field in the future, but I feel like bartenders will be the most resilient to being replaced by robotics...

Also I don't know why you keep shitting on the Bartender-bot. You think it's easy to mix drinks and converse with drunks simultaneously?

haha sheep pens. I miss the massive sheep pen we had for the Cathedral.

The two times Turing has been mentioned in this thread: With that reading comprehension I don't know if you could pass Turing.

Ah, are you saying that a position tracking model doesn't need to run at discrete units in time ex, update every millisecond, but can instead be run from an arbitrary starting point to an arbitrary endpoint with a complete equation? If so then yeah, I agree. Some of my vehicle modeling code...

No we're here for the indefinite future. Still have 90 people online every night, though some of those are AFKing for that labor. If you have any questions about what it's like to start out and play AA currently feel free to ask. Let me know if you want to play!

Anthalon was just killed by Legacy. People are saying it was killed on Salphira and Tahyang already, but I didn't see proof of it.

Serious question: What enjoyment is there to be had programming in assembly? It's obviously challenging, but do you ever get proficient enough or have a good enough library built up that you can just sit down and produce content without being mired in all the tediousness of it?

What equation for position based on velocity doesn't use time?

I think a_skeleton_03 read a few blogs and now he thinks he is an expert on all things ai. Dunning Kruger effect ladies and gentlemen!

Yep. And those security vulnerabilities are largely caused by convenience or OBD systems which are only going to become more prevalent along with driver assistance. The potential has been there for a while, it's just going to get easier when you have a multiple ECUs who are there to explicitly...

I can see the nerd-team finally turn it on and sit on the edge of their seat waiting to see what experiences it will enjoy, then it just takes a nap and never wakes up. "Dr. White, is it dead?" "No. It just really likes its nap."

What if you create a process that can choose to do whatever it wants, but it just wants to nap?

Haha a_skeleton_03 is still recruiting Bill Gates unknowingly into his awful argument. Bill Gates says, "I am in the camp that is concerned about super intelligence" and a_skeleton_03 reads, "AI cannot be reasoned with!"

What's funny is that we expose control of our robots via web interfaces, and before we lock everything down with encryption/verification etc it's trivial to hack and disable our robots. For commercial systems it'll definitely be possible and they'll have to spend a great deal of effort to ensure...

I know you're being a smarmy cunt to feed off drama, but I'll answer it genuinely just because it's a fun question. It's very difficult answer and it's really hard to nail down what threshold we have for "true AI". People have very well thought answers for that now, but I feel as we continue...
