Marketing works. So many people think it doesn’t work on them, but it does.

Wasn’t this obvious? He didn’t need to go “all-in on ai” cause there is hundreds of thousands of people who tried the same thing already and everyone of them could tell him that’s not what ai can do.

That is absolutely true, but the intention of the question is different. The lorry is imaginary - imagilorry.
- Comment on xkcd #3174: Bridge Clearance 2 weeks ago:
Yep, but universe is so empty.
- Comment on xkcd #3174: Bridge Clearance 2 weeks ago:
Really?
Can we calculate this? Let’s do specs first. Let’s say we only drive until the next overpass, which is likely in the next few km , let’s say 5. And we drive 40kmh so for 450 second the lory is swinging around the universe trying to hit anything. Would it?

I don’t know, feels like all the media will talk about Clinton for a few months and Donnie will be just fine… again

I heard stories of this during the war. Strange they found evidence only now.

I had that thing! It was really cool to watch a football match while camping!
And I gave it to my father when he was in the hospital… Eurocup was at the time.

Come on, nobody is going to eliminate poverty. That’s not on the agenda.
Plus we don’t even have a road how to make robots that could make other robots.

Same here. But I ate healthy all my life.
It was the drugs that were the problem.
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 1 month ago:
Yes and it’s not new. There have been failed attempts to get out of Microsoft by governments and companies around the world for more than a decade. Its hard. The cost is huge, the benefit vague and distant.
The only reason why is gaining ground now it’s because US got really crazy. Not because of the cost of Windows licences. Not even because of invasive AI.
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 1 month ago:
It’s very much true. W10 was cause of pressure from companies and countries, not because of the odd Joe contemplating their os.
Any company may fall, but they can also fail from inaction. Ms has the option to get data no one else can. They can’t afford not to.
- Comment on Microsoft is making every Windows 11 PC an AI PC 1 month ago:
They will be fine. They are second most valuable company in the world. They have money to throw around and their source of income still seem inexhaustible. A few new Linux users won’t even make a dent.

The compression alogarytm must be interesting to allow search to work for particular genes.
- Comment on Getting old and would like a better way to track health the self hosted way 2 months ago:
Yeah, that’s true I guess. I’m using ai from protona lot for my complicated medical conditions and it’s helpful, still would be better to have it local. Especially if it had good features.
- Comment on Getting old and would like a better way to track health the self hosted way 2 months ago:
A friend of mine is building something like that. You scan all the documents and you can set reminders, it does summaries and proposes actions and a buck of other really neat stuff It’s ai. I think it’s a good use case. But the ai means it has to call a server with the information, so I can’t get past that.

Id still want to double check😀.

When I first got internet in 95, it was easy to find stuff like that. I even made a website about making explosives for my computer class. Got a good grade for it and everything. Nobody said anything. Kind of weird if I think of it now. Anyway, making explosives as a hobby is a real bad decision. Most people understand that. The ones that don’t are not smart enough to make them. The ones that are smart enough and still want to make them, don’t need would not use chatgpt.
- Comment on The demise of Flash didn't bring any big HTML5/JS equivalent for watching animations; fast internet and better video compression made those types of animations become raster videos as well 2 months ago:
I’m sure you are correct about everything. Have s nice day!

These two are very different to each other. One was created mainly for designers (though it evolved later ) the other was created to teach programers. That’s quite different.
But I appreciate that you feel strongly about p5js. I’m sure it’s great and that it helped many people.

Yes, it’s not you, it’s the situation. It’s all good, right? It’s not you.
Bye.

Yes, a lot of assholes around trying to find any possible, no matter how absurd way to insult people about the most pointless stuff.

You clearly miss the point, intentionally or not intentionally, I don’t know. I thought it’s clear what the point is.
On one hand you have a tool like flash an integrated tool similar to other design tools, timeline, coding interface (that works with the timeline and elements on the board, thousand of libraries intended for people using flash, vast community resources. On the other hand you have pure coding. Not sure what your issue is. I don’t have time to go the full circle with you. That css game was made by a 10x programer. The same game would be made by a designer in flash.

You can use a notepad to create anything you want in web assembly, that’s not the point.

That’s just a web ide. Flash was a vector tool where you could for animate and also code.

You are wrong. You probably never used it. There is no such tools to develop apps like was possible with flash.
The argument that you can do with x technology today the same thing makes no sense. Today you have to be a skilled programer to do the same stuff and it might still work worse today as it did back then.
HTML5 is nowhere near as capable. Webgl . Is there a graphical tool to use it? JavaScript tool? Dumbass Lottie files tools that cost 20$ per month and suck.
And if you were a good programer in flash/flex, you could build apps just as stable as you can today.
It’s stupid that tech like this doesn’t exist. Except for dumbass Rive - again 45$ per month and it sucks

Nowhere near as capable. It’s more difficult and time consuming to develop for worse performance even today.

It was proprietary, apple hated it because it wanted to sell apps. And Google followed that model.
