Clicking? I spend most of my time typing. Even in Labview there’s some typing to do. And godot requires a substantial amount of code to go with the gui side, it just has its own text editor.

But I mostly mod games these days, and I frequently need to understand the terminal api that’s being used to gather and use resources because the vscode gui fails to get things set up on its own a lot. I use the terminal directly less these days. But I still interact with it daily. Heck, I even use terminal args in steam game launching to improve performance occasionally.

I mostly use the terminal for automation though. And ffmpeg.

So. I’m on the side of more difficulty sliders please, but it’s not just to get more people in the door. I want to be able to make games more difficult when I can too. I generally play on the hardest difficulty first, then lower it until I’m having fun.

But there are games where making it easier cannot work, to my knowledge. A good example, I think, is Post Void, which is VERY inaccessible in a lot of ways (epilepsy warning, if you look up the game, even with the accessibility setting on, it’s still bad). The visuals need accessibility options to be improved, but the gameplay really can’t be made more accessible without severely harming the gameplay. At best you could add more starting time to the flask. I rolled hard off this game due to chronic illness, but I loved it. But I also hated it for similar reasons. Some games are just niche, and frankly, there’s enough games out there that you don’t have to play all of them.

I know plenty of girls with full beards. And plenty of guys who can’t grow them. It’s not common, sure, but a female perp could just get a fake beard if we go by the gender presentation on a license.

I stand by my statement.

The license already has a picture. Neither sex nor gender provide any value in identification, and have lead to misidentification of cis people too.

It is amazing how human CEOs manage to surpass a 100% hallucination rate.

I don’t think he did it on purpose either, but the lead part is true. The Center for Environment Health did test it.

Don’t worry, I’m going to die to this fascism too.

You’re barking up the wrong tree. Most people in the state are incompetent, not evil. The problem is incompetence allows evil to thrive. I’ve never supported censorship, but I do support people getting consequences to their actions. Alex Jones has actively supported violence through lies, and actively sold poison with no recompense. If you think what he’s going through now is recompense… I’m sorry? But you’re wrong. He’s doing fine through his crocodile tears.

Please. Take care of yourself. And whomever in your community you have the power to take care of. We only get through this together.

The book was better, and completely unrelated. The movie is fun, but kind of a dumb action flick. It ignores most of the nuance Asimov would have had to make a movie you don’t have to think about. There’s nothing wrong with that, I just don’t prefer that, unless it’s what I signed up for, like with John Wick or something else obviously just action.

There’s a pretty good series of episodes on the podcast Behind The Bastards. Including how he sold high in lead content supplements for years. That actually might be brilliant though, as lead increases violent tendencies and reduces cognitive function, which will prevent his customer base from realizing he’s just making shit up and trying to make them mad.

It’s good. Thanks for correcting yourself. :3

The graphs struck me as weird when learning as I expected the input and output nodes to be neuron layers as well… Which they are, but not in the same way. So I frequently miscounted myself while learning, sleep deprived in the back of the classroom. ^^;;

There are ways to estimate a little more accurately, but the amount of fine tuning that is guesswork and brute force searching is too damn high…

Simplest multilayer perceptron*.

A neural network can be made with only one hidden layer (and still, mathematically proven, be able to output any possible function result, just not as easily trained, and with a much higher number of neurons).

When you’re working at the algorithm level, you get funny looks… Even if it gets to state of the art results, who cares because you can throw more electricity and data at it instead.

I worked specifically on low data algorithms, so my work was particularly frowned upon by modern ai scientists.

I’m not doxxing myself, but unpublished work of mine got published in parallel as Prototypical Networks in 2017. And everyone laughed (<- exaggeration) at me researching RBFs which were considered defunct. (I still think they’re an untapped optimization.)

https://youtu.be/HGaJYG_R-j4 The Cursed Conlang Circus 3 had a few entries last year that were very relevant here.

So called because the toast in military kitchens were nicknamed shingles, as in roofing tiles. Evocative of bad cooking, which I’m betting was rampant.

Honestly, shit on a shingle (s.o.s. appropriately) is better than it sounds, even when not referred to under that name. But it’s definitely a comfort food. It’s not good for you, it’s just creamy, beefy, and starch. Inoffensive, cheap, and easy to make in bulk. (Kinda want some now.)

Ah see, most fascists don’t wear those. Those ones are the ones where it’s too late. My point stands

May you never have to deal with the common fascist, only the comically evil ones.

A t-shirt and jeans. Like most of the fascists I’ve met. And most of the normal people I’ve met too. Facism doesn’t often wear a uniform. But when it does, it’s too late.

Everyone I know involved in nonviolent protests is also currently fighting legal battles for people who got hospitalized unprovoked by police at said legally organized nonviolent protests.

Someone is whispering a call to action into a void.

I love this analogy. May I steal it?
