I wish this guy could come home.
thinkmcfly··on Car Thieves vs. the Final GlitterBomb 5.0 (YouTube)

thinkmcfly··on China’s War Against Taiwan Has Already Started
I phrased my question to mirror another person's question but with the opposite bias; they created a anti-taiwan response opportunity, so I made my post with a pro-taiwan response opportunity. I believe Taiwan should remain free if that is what they want for themselves

An epidemic you say? We should do nothing about it then. I'm healthy, it won't hurt me.

There was a poll that showed that people worried about Elon syndrome epidemic are actually the most likely responders to be biased in their decision making. I'll post a link to it when I get out of the shower

So, can it make a traveling salesman solver for current quantum computers?
thinkmcfly··on Has ChatGPT gotten dumber?
I hate whatever built in prompt they are using for chatgpt. You have to add so many caveats in a prompt to counter-act their bullshit
thinkmcfly··on China’s War Against Taiwan Has Already Started
Why would China continue this war if it risks a global economic crisis that would make the great depression seem like a cheerful time?

Is the whole 'US intervention bad' propaganda line being pushed just smoke?

thinkmcfly··on China’s War Against Taiwan Has Already Started
Why would China continue this war if it would cause a global depression?

thinkmcfly··on We’ve updated our policy to prohibit sharing someone else’s live location
It is best to suppress activists. China has done a great job in HK. Elon should look to how they have been doing it.

Free speech, except for the speech Elon doesn't like

thinkmcfly··on The hype around esports is fading as investors and sponsors dry up
I've been watching pro StarCraft Broodwar since 2005. 2 decades soon! If they had released new mechanics since then they would have killed the community. Modern esports lack the locked in balance that leads to nuanced play and decades of viewership, save for games like Cs and starcraft bw that avoid chasing the 'next gen' marketing ploy. Blizzard did it's part to try to kill scbw esports but they failed
thinkmcfly··on ‘Diablo IV’ developers work long hours, bracing for impending release
It's one thing to work late because someone needs to be at the helm of a business (ie run the register, answer the phones, put out fires and revert builds), it's another to just work people extra hours because the owners failed to execute a plan that will meet whatever product release date they promised to their board or the public or whatever.
