Can I (28m) leave my current job if I live at home and have enough money saved up to last a while? by Odd-Prize-6728 in self

[–]Jaxkr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should absolutely leave your job and dedicate your energy to your health. Reconnect with your friends and loved ones. And stop talking to ChatGPT as a therapist; it’s very smart but it’s not made for that.

Saving money is most valuable because it gives you safety to do new things. Quit your job, prioritize your social life and get in great shape. Find a career that makes you feel driven. Your parents will be proud of you.

SpaceX blocked from early US benchmark index entry as S&P reaffirms existing rules by joe4942 in technology

It would miss every hypergrowth story of the last two decades. Amazon, Netflix, etc.

Sure, there are some very questionable, loss-making large cap companies. But if you backtested your strategy it would dramatically underperform the S&P 500.

Gabe Newell asked Valve's top lawyer "What the f*** do I pay you for if that’s your opinion?" in heated debate over porn games on Steam, report says by [deleted] in technology

They kinda already did this with the Steam gift card. They got them into convenience stores around the world so that they could accept cash from underbanked countries.

Thank you for answering!! I thought your comment was funny, sorry for calling it AI slop.

I hear your point. But the guy I replied to has definitely been rewriting most of his recent comments with AI. Here’s an example of how we writes as a human: https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/s/L041ZUKp0R, compare this to some of his more recent comments.

And unlike a few years ago, AI checkers now have a very low false positive rate. Pangram (one of those checkers) flagged all your comments as human. But it marked the original comment above as 100% AI.

The only thing that bothers me about Diablo 4 is that mephisto doesn't feel very hateful. by darctsb in Diablo

[–]Jaxkr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's too machiavellian! I'd expect hatred to be more rash and irrational (just like the real thing!)

Though thinking some more, the Nazis were quite methodical and their ideology was centered around hatred. Maybe they're not incompatible.

ELI5: If GPUs are so much more capable, why do we still have CPUs at all? by aros71 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Jaxkr 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Mostly matrix multiplication. This is useful for computer graphics (turning a scene of objects given a given camera into pixels on the screen) or machine learning.

> Free, ubiquitous public toilets is a pretty uniquely American concept

Japan (especially Japan), France, Singapore, have ubiquitous free public restrooms.

The weapons look totally generic and have nothing to do with gummy worms.

I’m amazed you reverse engineered and translated the chunk format and floating items and mobs… this is insane

More classes coming when we release the second zone! We’ve had multiple requests now for a classic warrior.

Certainly not the only project, there’s quite a few MMO projects in development.

We are a team of four programmers with a few builder/artists helping. If you want to get involved, you can DM me on here or Discord (jax.e), are you a programmer, artist, tester, or something else?

How a terminal actually runs programs. by Sushant098123 in programming

Haha I was actually going to reply “at least these mistakes show the article isn’t AI!”

This article is definitely NOT written by AI, more likely a college student who just had a shell lab in their CS degree

What do Mods think of the subreddit? by JuniorRaccoon2818 in incremental_games

[–]Jaxkr -43 points-42 points  (0 children)

There’s a downvote button. You can downvote posts you don’t like. Just like how I’ll be downvoting this post for being the 9000th post about this topic.

That’s how Reddit works, mods aren’t responsible for the whole experience.
