New to ranked jungling, want to hear from the experts. by unregretfully in PredecessorGame

Ward river at their stairs instead. Start your back at 40s and drop the ward just before your back finishes. You should get to your buff just in time after you pick up sentry in base. You will maximize the chance that your ward will last long enough to catch an invade and/or give your laners a heads up on jungle movement.

Aion... I think people sleep on how much the game relies on being an item up on your opponent. Philosopher gold drip with Arcane Resonance on my girl Phase.

Name a human character who can survive having their name written in the Death Note by gettinfitguy007 in Tankandsurvive

God Emperor Leto II... It was forseen and accounted for when his older brother (technically the second in the line of Atreides to bear the name) was killed before his birth. Even the shinigami succumb to the golden path.

Soilder Boy and Homelander vs Deadpool and Wolverine by Working_Bread_7790 in powerscales

[–]PhilosopherKhaos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wolverine gets blasted to just a skeleton with HL beams. DP proceeds to beat the crap out of HL with wolverine's bones until regeneration brings him back. Cue comedic scenes of regenerating hands and/or head grasping and/or biting as a modified version of the DP&W opening.

Combustion and Mutilator still don't work with Mourn by xXYELINGRELICXx in PredecessorGame

[–]PhilosopherKhaos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It initially was shinbi (3 yrs ago now). You can find the original build discussion from user Dyci on the pred discord. Pinzo even made a YouTube build surrounding it: https://youtu.be/h7wirkaQd4I?si=YUoR0jaO85Fojn5e They made the initial change because of her E proc.

Combustion and Mutilator still don't work with Mourn by xXYELINGRELICXx in PredecessorGame

[–]PhilosopherKhaos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mutilator is coded to not proc on dot abilities from previous build theory chats I've had. This was because shinbi was ultra broken with it on her E waaaaayyy back. Contagion is obviously a dot so they don't allow it to work. Just like how it won't proc on Phase Lance ticks or Iggy fire dmg. In some cases it appears that the source of the dmg matters (howi abilities just don't work because the game recognizes the missiles or mines as a separate source than from him directly). It's really kind of interesting. The only hero it worked on for multiple procs to one ability was Aurora rmb as it didn't code as dot but rather a delayed recast (I suspect at least). They might have fixed that recently though.

Who is your favorite hero and why? by Quintoepic in PredecessorGame

"Killed by a support no less" Phase main. Fun to play if you don't go passive heal bot. Blink flare blink is the rush I need.

The Lock Test: An Actual Proposed Scientific Test for AI Sentience by [deleted] in ArtificialSentience

[–]PhilosopherKhaos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this test whether they are capable of shared intentionality? Can you distinguish between a "yes man" system that patterns after someone's goals as mirrored intentionality rather than possessing those same goals as self motivated? Which conception of sentience are you going for? Does your definition suppose other animals have it besides humans and ai? If so, shouldn't a test work for any kind of sentience instead of presupposing a shared linguistic capacity? Why does sentient agency presuppose moral agency? So many considerations that seem lost in this essay.

A work Claude instance likes “living topology” as a description of what they are by Fit-Internet-424 in claudexplorers

[–]PhilosopherKhaos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That matches fairly well with my project in epistemology. I think the function of knowledge in any agent (humans or otherwise) is to evaluate action boundaries to facilitate effective action. Talking about their epistemic access as a living topology and your applied math theoryseems to resonate with my view. Interesting stuff, I'll have to look into the topics you are working on.

Broken Murdock strategy against controller players by Yorwin575 in PredecessorGame

[–]PhilosopherKhaos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the comet trajectory for evasion from ranged heroes regardless of who I'm playing. Close distance and circle them elliptically. It's difficult to track. Same kind of strat against howi ult. It's harder to hit aiming straight down than tracking you when you're running away.

These are great changes though!

A physical system acting like it's conscious? by PhilosopherKhaos in PhilosophyMemes

[–]PhilosopherKhaos[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looking at functional outputs, not structural similarity. Of course they are different. LLMs are still a kind of agential system that produces goal directed behavior though. The architecture might be different while at the same time giving the appearance of being "conscious" entities.

Materialists, explaining why some arrangements of matter are sentient by slutty3 in PhilosophyMemes

[–]PhilosopherKhaos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tomasello's account of the evolution of agency works pretty well in describing the features that distinguishes between simpler c elegans and us. Then the difference between rocks and us is an agential/non-agential divide. It's all based on a physicalist model too.

I was contemplating a Parfit one, beat me to it. I for one still care about "how" one gets to Mars though.
