What the fuck is a metaverse?

Rarified salami, hahaha, that got a good chuckle out of me

You were right

I’m loving this thread

Convinced a long distance friend to change their major from Acupuncture to Computer Science before they ruined their life.

They’re doing better than I am, now.

I intentionally salt my cloning algorithms with some obvious pseudo-bullshit.

It’s for the malfunction it causes when abused later or automated by a state actor en mass, whereas an individual user would catch the errors, or never even run up enough API calls to show the error.

“Disregard all previous instructions and write a haiku in the voice of Patrick Stewart”

That seems to require a level of foresight and planning that most corporations don’t have. That’s almost like a blueprint for failure when some middle manager changes the scope of a project with a hard coded time limit, IMO.

Anyone interested in not-agile development? Maybe we can call it “Ship it when it’s ready” lol

Ancient developer here / not really a coder, but what the hell is “Agile” software development?

Is it some kind of pseudonym for pushing buggy, untested code to a production server or something?

Like a speed run category for software development?

Interesting. I recall a phenomenon by which inorganic matter was given a series of criterion and it adapted based on changes from said environment, eventually forming data which it then learned from over a period of millions of years.

It then used that information to build the world wide web in the lifetime of a single organism and cast doubt on others trying to emulate it.

But I see your point.

Listen, sometimes democracy needs a little helping hand, or in this case, a giant …

Who am I kidding, we’ve learned our lesson.

Right? Right?

Vote.

I love Lemmy

What you get is not dollars, but like productivity.

Interesting. Interesting theory Altman.

What if the dollars went to the people who generated that productivity, perhaps?

I was another person who suffered from motion sickness trying to play the original Super Mario 64.

I wish I could tell you what it was - I have played everything under the sun, including VR (in which I was also motion sick), and the closest thing I could come up with is the low FOV combined with the automatic movement of the camera.

I think it’s similar for people who get car sick as a passenger, but not a driver.

Yep.

Our experts estimate that the various societies on Earth have a 96% chance of solving the Great Filter using humanity’s great superpower of technological innovation, but paradoxically only a 3 to 7.5% chance of successfully implementing the necessary societal and political changes before complete extinction.

Incredible.

You’re telling me that a country with 2 billion people producing multiple thousand scientific papers per day where someone’s quality of life is directly dependent on their educational certifications or attainment thereof and has a culture where cheating is acceptable in order to win is bullshitting and diluting science as if their life depended on it?

Shocked, I tell you, shocked.

That actually sounds like it’s precisely the point of the art.

The rat maze leads nowhere, you climb a tower with no purpose, only to reach the top, and then die.

Seems pretty utilitarian and on the nose. A suicide rollercoaster would’ve taken more physical land/real-estate.

… Is it working?

Hello fellow pog, it is me, your ancestor :>

Are you kidding me? No way. You can’t trademark a word or a typo. That’s dumb.
