I try to contribute to things getting better, with sourced information, OC and polite rational skepticism.Disagreeing with a point ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.Let's discuss to make things better sustainably.Always happy to question our beliefs.

  • Guild Wars Reforged announced to release in December and will be Steam Deck Verified

    Jump

  • Guild Wars 1 has a very interesting team based PvP with a deck of skills among hundreds you have to pick beforehand, it generated a lot of team creativity, metas, counter metas, updates breakings metas and generating news ones etc. It's in my opinion way more interesting than the generic 5v5 with fixed skills per character that has dominated skill based PvP games since then (including League of Legends and Guild Wars 2, at least on release), probably because it's more accessible for the mass.

  • I get a lot of ideas in the shower. Do any of you use any kind of waterproof note taking pad and pen so you can catch those ideas before they vanish in the steam?

    Jump

  • If that doesn't work, see a plumber.

  • Are there enough resources in the world to allow everyone (or at least the vast majority) to live comfortably and happily?

    Jump

  • Maybe one starting point is the 2 tones of CO₂ estimated to be the annual budget per person to stay at 1.5°C of global warming (already passed). For people living in rich countries, staying under the 2t requires active efforts, it's possible since developing countries do it, but they are often considered too much of a hassle by the average rich country person: little to no individual car, little to no plane, home energy performance investments, smaller home, less animal food, shopping local etc.

    As far as I understand, for the basic needs, it's totally possible to sustain the demographic peak that should be around 10 billion humans in 2100. But certainly not with the current level of resources consumption in rich countries.

    See also the 8 other planetary boundaries that we would need to respect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetary_boundaries

    climate change, ocean acidification, stratospheric ozone depletion, biogeochemical flows in the nitrogen cycle, excess global freshwater use, land system change, the erosion of biosphere integrity, chemical pollution, and atmospheric aerosol loading.

  • Palworld studio Pocketpair says its new publishing division won't handle games that use generative AI: 'We don't believe in it'

    Jump

  • But it also doesn't need to be as exact as SQL, which removes some kind of complexity.

    Jump

  • It would not be a fully determining schema that could apply to random outputs, I would guess this is impossible for natural language, and if it is possible, then it may as well be used for procedural generation. It would be just enough to make an LLM output be good enough. It doesn't need to be perfect because human output is not perfect either.

    Jump

  • You seem to imply we can only use the raw output of the LLm but that's not true. We can add some deterministic safeguards afterwards to reduce hallucinations and increase relevancy. For example if you use an LLM to generate SQL, you can verify that the answer respects the data schemas and the relationship graph. That's a pretty hot subject right now, I don't see why it couldn't be done for video game dialogues.Indeed, I also agree that the consumption of resources it requires may not be worth the output.

  • Palworld studio Pocketpair says its new publishing division won't handle games that use generative AI: 'We don't believe in it'

    Jump

  • I am using them as a side tool for development. I think LLMs are already very performent for web knowledge search (e.g. replacing a search on stackoverflow), suggestions, explanations and error detection. Although is it worth the resources consumption? Not sure, but I can't afford not staying on top of the tooling available for my job. However, I agree, in my experience, the edit/agent modes are not efficient for coding, for now.

    Generating secondary dialogues for a video game is quite a lower quality requirement than software engineering. So I think it could work there. It requires sounding natural, not being exact, LLMs are good at this.

    Jump

  • I think it could work to give dynamic and varied answers to secondary characters given good prompts and other guardrails to preserve the immersion. As long as the core elements of the games are not AI generated slope, and developers are honest about where it was used.

  • Arch users when they discover they contain 98% "bloated" Junk DNA:

    Jump

  • My cousin in Darwin, OP also means original post, I got the joke. The comment was about the science behind, so that's what I replied about.

  • Arch users when they discover they contain 98% "bloated" Junk DNA:

    Jump

  • It's not clear apparently. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junk_DNA.Although OP seems to confuse non-coding DNA (the ~98%) and junk DNA. Some non-coding DNA has clearly identified roles, so it should be well below 98% of junk, and there's a lot left to explore.

  • I landed in another toxic workplace after quitting a previous one. What would you do in this scenario? (Open to all suggestions)

    Jump

  • I guess your job market as a scientist is even worse than for IT engineers right now. So I would keep looking for a new job while keeping my head down at the current one until I can safely secure a new one. There's also a possibility that your problems at 2 months will get better after 6 months once you get to know all your colleagues better and make some allies.

    Software engineering may have been one of the few modern engineering roles that combine both engineering (designing) tasks and technical craftsmanship (coding) tasks. Maybe until LLMs gets perfected.
