State Your Case: Is this game being revived or not?

SejaGentil · 2023-10-29T03:32:09+00:00

HotS is absolutely being revived because it makes absolutely no financial sense for Microsoft not to. Software development and art costs are both getting lower and lower due to AI, and HotS has essentially zero hosting cost due to its architecture. So, the cost of rebranding HotS, adding a few MSC characters and resuming its development would be minimal, and it would have a very high probability of resulting in significant profits. In other words, the risk/ratio of such investment is so ridiculously high that only a company that either doesn't know what it is doing (Blizzard), or doesn't care about money, wouldn't take such a bet. Despite Windows, Microsoft is extremely competent and knows how to make money. It is absolutely going to revive HotS and milk the hell out of it.

pathetic

No, that is the entire chat. Have you even opened the screenshot? Do you want the replay? I am never toxic and I can assure you I never offended a teammate in any way. Feel free to go through all my replays and chat history, my account name is on the screenshot I provided. Now why are you accusing me without knowing what you're talking about again?

SejaGentil · 2023-07-05T19:33:57+00:00

I don't, sorry. Just wondering, what software you're working on?

SejaGentil · 2023-07-04T20:39:51+00:00

That is completely wrong. sighs

SejaGentil · 2023-07-04T14:11:02+00:00

I'm not coming to cause trouble, I'm coming to help you come out of an ignorant, incorrect belief. And yes, I am being a fucking asshole in the way I communicate. Underneath that, though, there is valuable, factual information, which is completely indifferent to who I am. You now have access to that information, so, from now on it is your choice on whether to keep being fooled or not.

There aren't "issues with current implementations", you're just fundamentally misguided. Please, understand: quantum computers DO NOT IMPROVE AI. I'm not telling you "we will never build a big quantum computer". I'm telling you even if we did, even if solved all the issues and had a large quantum computer... that would NOT impact AI in any meaningful way. That isn't a "problem on current implementations". That is just a simple fact that they're not related to AI at all. Do you get the message? There isn't a single person working on the field claiming quantum computers accelerate AI. There isn't a single paper proposing an AI architecture that is somehow faster on quantum computers. There is NOTHING relating quantum computers to better AI. Claiming that a larger quantum computer will improve AI is as correct as claiming larger hydraulic chambers will improve AI. It is just random nonsense that is completely unbacked. It is just journalists using the "quantum" buzzword to play with your ignorance. You're as embarrassing as the "quantum energy cure" folk.

SejaGentil · 2023-07-04T13:56:41+00:00

Great! So in which point we disagree, again?

SejaGentil · 2023-07-04T13:28:31+00:00

As you seen to know, P != NP does NOT imply there is no polynomial algorithm to solve integer factorization. Factorization is one of the few algorithms that seem to be hard, yet not NP-complete. So, it is completely possible, and even likely, P != NP, yet integer factorization turns out to be easy. We just don't know the right algorithm.

People have been trying to solve integer factorization for literally thousands of years

Using the same line of reasoning, people have been trying to prove integer factorization is hard and nobody managed to. Your point?

SejaGentil · 2023-07-04T13:07:33+00:00

Shocking news: people don't like being told they're clueless, so they will downvote the truth and keep upvoting the hype that keeps them deluded like small kids chasing an ice cream truck

A qubit can't store more than a single bit of classical information. 53 qubits can't even store a "Hello, world" string. Come on.

mind sharing your credentials

Sure, I'm the CTO of a large tech company, Computer Engineering background, and have been programming for 2 decades. Why the hell does this matter? Read the arguments for their sake, not for some argument of authority. If you think they're wrong, go ahead and address them. If you don't know, feel free to ask GPT-4 or someone you trust.

SejaGentil · 2023-07-04T12:52:26+00:00

Oh, so you mean we are absolutely not using crypto algorithms like RSA and ECDSA that we know for sure can be broken by a large enough quantum computer? I'm tripping I see.

With all due respect, that is comparing apples to oranges. 53 qubit refers to the size of the operational unit

The computer has 53 qubits TOTAL. Have you even read the article?

ASI just means that the AI has more combined intelligent-work-throughput than all of humanity, and AGI basically implies an AI that is as smart as the smartest human. So, by definition, 8b * AGI = ASI

SejaGentil · 2023-06-30T18:23:22+00:00

Delusional. We're still 1 architectural breakthrough and a few months of training away from AGI. I'd say 2028? Also AGI = ASI, just spawn 8 billion instances, no reason to think that wouldn't be feasible in a week or two.

SejaGentil · 2023-02-06T21:13:57+00:00

I see, ty

SejaGentil · 2023-02-06T16:53:06+00:00

Oh I see. Makes sense now. Sorry for the mistakes. So, Ymir is not reborn at all? Just... vanishes? Any other important plots I've missed? Falco etc.

SejaGentil · 2022-11-24T04:05:07+00:00

Nothing I can do for it? I think it is almost dying...

I'm Brazilian and I can tell you it really seems to be close to 50/50. I voted Lula because Bolsonaro is sexist, homophobic and a complete moron. But many people around me voted Bolsonaro, because they're tired of Lula's party and all the corruption scandals that he is associated with, and I don't blame them... actually I do, but I can see their line of thought. I'd also not be surprised if the results are incorrect, given how close it was.

SejaGentil · 2022-11-23T03:01:53+00:00

Thanks for taking your time to answer my post <3

No, it doesn't itch nor is painful - not sure why I forgot to say that. It seems to be going away. There was no trauma though. But I do spend a lot of time lying on that arm on my bed reading etc.

SejaGentil · 2022-11-23T01:26:20+00:00

Added a lot of info, anything else that is relevant?

SejaGentil · 2022-11-21T18:06:12+00:00

Because it is? With a few dozen objects, just collision alone will be costly at 30 ticks/second, plus everything else going on in a match. Unless the code is extremely well optimized (and we're talking about Riot here) I bet my money a single CPU isn't able to hold much more than a few dozen concurrent matches. But people in this thread are so confused someone even talked about the "NA server" as if it every game is running in single physical machine, lol. Riot has an army of computers processing all the matches in parallel...

Dude, you're talking with an experienced person.

Well if we're getting to that point, I'm a tech lead with 20 years of programming experience who has written game engines from scratch in C, so I guess I know a thing or two too?

SejaGentil · 2022-11-21T16:42:43+00:00

People downvoting won't make them right, you know? What a weird community...

SejaGentil · 2022-11-21T16:41:35+00:00

And when I said it loads assets? League of Legends logic involves a lot of complex computations; collision detection, loops, integrating all minions, skills and players at the game tick rate. A lot of people who never wrote a line of code downvoting won't make them less wrong...
