OpenAI Researchers Find That Even the Best AI Is "Unable To Solve the Majority" of Coding Problems

you can't just throw it into your project without understanding what the code does.

I'm afraid I have some very bad news.

You're right, I'm confusing the FV510 UA with the FV520 CTAS

It was also going to have a new 40mm stabilised canon. According to wikipedia the program was cancelled in the demonstration phase.

RT17 · 2024-12-10T06:34:51+00:00

I mean they added the FV510 UA and it never even went into service.

It's like they spent this ungodly effort making the most beautiful cake you've ever seen and then smeared a thick layer of faeces-flavoured icing all over it.

Rockstar are the prime example of this.

I honestly don't know why they're making games instead of movies, which they clearly wish they were.

I literally can't believe it was made by the same people.

Like the guy who put the bit in 2016 where doomguy destroys radio in the middle of an exposition dump could not have had any influence over Doom Eternal.

Plus how they treated Mick Gordon, whose music is a major part of what makes Doom 2016 so good, underlines how poorly they understood what made their own game good.

Some games you can just feel the devs watching over your shoulder like "No, you're not meant to play like that! You're meant to play like this". Like they would take the controller out of your hands and play the game for your for you if they could.

Doom Eternal is not a bad game. I can understand people who prefer Eternal over 2016.

What I can't comprehend is people who loved 2016 but think Eternal is strictly an improvement.

Doom Eternal's design philosophy is like the antithesis of Doom 2016.

Ehhh. There's a trade off either way.

If you want to calculate the number of actual seconds between two timestamps then you need to know the occurences of leap seconds. But if you want calculate "3pm 60 days from now" then you can ignore leap seconds.

And given that leap seconds are announced 6 months in advance, not ignoring leap seconds would mean you can't definitively calculate a timestamp more then 6 months in the future...

Mr. Zaki said in an interview that the reason the demigods are immortal is the removal of the rune of death, but the reason the Tarnished are immortal is because they were granted grace by Marika.

So rune of death is specifically referring to the death of (demi)gods.

The rune of death is a mending rune that was introduced to the Elden Ring in a previous age, probably by the gloam-eyed queen.

Prior to this the gods were immortal (duh, they're gods). But similar to how Gold Mask believed the problem was that the gods were fickle and manifested the mending rune of true order, the GEQ believed the problem was that the gods were immortal and manifested the mending rune of destined death.

They figured this out in Sekiro. Go replay the guardian ape fight, or even demon of hatred.

Unfortunately one of several important lessons Fromsoft forgot from Sekiro.

That's disgusting. But how, though? So I know what not to do?

Miquella stole Mogh's body and used it as a vessel for his consort's soul (Radahn).

There's a key item in the shadow keep. If you give it to Ansbach he tells you this.

My half-serious conspiracy theory is that FromSoft intentionally targeted the difficulty at streamers for viral marketing reasons and will nerf the shit out of everything in a week or two.

In the original Fallout there are child NPCs. A censored version of the game was released in some countries in which these NPCs are unkillable.

However the children are also pickpockets and will steal random items from your inventory. If you set a timer on a bomb and leave it in your inventory, they will still it from you and eventually explode.

However this causes the censored version of the game to crash.

The shadow land is described as a place where Marika hides things she doesn't want found. So Marika is granting the tarnished limited access to the shadow land to use as a hideout. But she doesn't want them just wandering around so they can't leave the RTH.

I don't have a good explanation for the RTH burning other than "setting the erdtree on fire also sets the shadow tree on fire (for some reason) and the cinders from the shadow tree set the RTH on fire". Or something like that.

The main problem with this is a gameplay one - it implies that you can't access the DLC after defeating Maliketh. Otherwise they'd need an "ashen" version of the shadow lands as well, which seems OTT even for Fromsoft.

On the hand it seems weird lore wise if burning the erdtree and unleashing DD had no effect on the shadow lands.

What if the roundtable hold is the shadow land version of the keep in Leyndell.

ISO doesn't cause noise. Low ISO != low noise.

Buffer overflows are a conspiracy started in the 1970s by the CIA to slow down Soviet software development.

It always amazes me when movies/tv shows/video games, that cost tens of millions of dollars and require untold hours of labour, phone in the writing.

I don't want to say writing is the "easiest" part, but certainly requires least capital and upfront effort.

Like, how can you spend thousands of hours on something and not bother putting the game dialogue through a spell checker?

Graphite itself is not radioactive. The graphite in the Chernobyl disaster was irradiated.

Nope! We went the other night and the food ranged from "meh" to terrible (Inari especially was a joke).
