Pump felt pretty good today

@BrettKollmann The problem with ManningCast is the corporate producers need to feel like they're doing something so they spend 80% of the show talking with irrelevant guests instead of following the successful model that inspired it (esports costreaming where pros actually analyze the game)

@tracewoodgrains Unrelated but people who think Y2K was a nothingburger will always be great displays of hubris and a lack of curiosity. "Nothing bad happened, therefore there was no problem"

[Adam @a_wild_dam]

@Freudian__Slap @sporadica The fundamental argument is that the value of solving these types of problems isn't in the strict binary reaching a result, but in the process of understanding the problem deeply and improving on techniques to reach it. Frontier labs are looking to skip that for publicity mostly

@SydS86807 @NFL It's an Australia joke you dumbass lmao

@belleiota Don't talk to me or my son ever again

@milianalol Lower tier scenes by their nature are prime targets for corruption. Less attention for the match results is itself a huge driver of that kind of unsavory betting demand and at the same time contributes to lower merch demand. Lack of revenue makes it trivial to pay people off.

@laineyyyy01 Mcds has 40k locations. That's $212k per store. Avg 23 employees per location. 212k/23=9200 per person per year. Assuming 40 hr weeks with 52 weeks per year, applying every dollar of profit to employees' paychecks would be a ~$4.43 hourly raise. Avg US fast food wage is $14.65.

@K9s_NA If you do you need to path top every game you play with him

@belleiota Surely league of legends 2 is out by then right

@piss_kitty I'm glad we can agree on that, as far as disclosure goes it is a pretty safe assumption that any software product developed in the last few years and moving forward will have used LLM tooling. 84% of developers and 97% of software organizations at the moment

[Adam @a_wild_dam]

@piss_kitty I'm sure there are many cases of that, but frankly, pair programming with a competent LLM is a legitimately enjoyable experience and not something I or most other devs would ever want to give up

[Adam @a_wild_dam]

@piss_kitty there are definitely people like that, but poll results do not support this being a majority

[Adam @a_wild_dam]

@piss_kitty Uninformed take with 0 nuance. In the software industry you are basically committing malpractice if you are not using premium LLMs. Image gen continues to be mostly slop and I would happily support human artists for that kind of thing. You are just overgeneralizing your opinion

[Adam @a_wild_dam]

@piss_kitty Stay delusional lmao. In what context do you think this comment makes any sense?

[Adam @a_wild_dam]

@anayanochka Best they can do is 4 inters

@Lainezor That quest is troll af and sailing is not remotely integrated with the rest of the game but I wouldn't say it's nothing like it was in 2007

@PetSuccubus_ The intent is to give players a sense of pride and accomplishment ™️

@PubWanghaf $2.83 on Amazon, wtf? These things are $0.65 each at my local grocery. Coincidentally they are low-key delicious slop.
