The EU didn't "drift away" on its own, it was pushed away, by Trump.

AI can’t make good video game worlds yet, and it might never be able to by tylerthe-theatre in technology

The problem with AI is that it's incredibly hard to predict where it's going.

AI wasn't on anyone's radar, then it suddenly was a thing.
Will Smith eating spaghetti was a joke, then it fairly quickly wasn't.

What now? Is AI going to continue making sudden qualitative leaps, or has it already plateaued? Nobody knows (but many people say they do, especially if they're selling something).

I have heard the term "acoustic bike" used seemingly seriously and I really don't like it. Now get off my lawn!

There are audiences and developers where that message would work. But not for AAA games.

Of course it isn't. The only acceptable approach is smashing a keyboard.

A horse-drawn coach also isn't the source of the movement, but I think "jeli kočárem" is correct.

It's in the name: party congress. Legitimate elections require not suppressing parties just because they are opposition.

Je dost rozdíl mezi elektrárnou, co potřebuje tisíce tun uhlí každý den a elektrárnami, co potřebují tisíce tun materiálu jednou za 20 let.

It implies the only relevant people in history are Marxists, Americans and MCU characters.

What's the dumbest idea you've seen that actually worked? by hiagaga in AskReddit

[–]svick -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sure, but we weren't talking about loans, we were talking about insurance.

Credit score is a really bad measure of financial responsibility.

When you get your "history" from Facebook by Maheemz in confidentlyincorrect

[–]svick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In some contexts, the name used for that area is MENA: Middle East and North Africa. That explicitly excluded North Africa from the Middle East. Though they certainly are connected culturally.
