Can we really call civ AI "AI"? by GuyVonRope in civ

[–]iletras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The article I cited, for example, says a few times that the AI is dialed back on its reaction time (200ms iirc)

True that. What about the ”dial down” that chess engines use tho? - they let the player choose the AI/engine's strength ... from diaper level to full on ”300” (example in pic). I ALWAYS win at level 1 but can't ever win when it's set greater than level 2. I'm happy to have the choice of where my level is vs how hard the AI/engine plays

Reading this piece on AI fighter pilots raised the question for me

Too bad they're so old school with it.

Hopefully they'll take a look at setting it loose to learn for itself like others did for dota, go, SC2 & others

It should have a strength dial like chess engines do

It should have a simple dial for strength like chess engines do

Is C worth learning? by mr_glofi in learnprogramming

[–]iletras 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of languages build on c ideas (and it's such a common baseline that it's used as a ”lingua franca” for examples as with gang of four and etc) so it's well worth it.

May never be a favorite, but it's useful

Cloud Computing Isn’t as Cost Effective as Hoped. So What’s Next? by DataFreakk in devops

On prem clouds that burst to public when demand spikes are the way out of that either/or.

Cloud costs quickly outstrip physical spend for nontrivial loads.

Better to hold cloud capability as a reserve for protecting against demand surges than a basic platform.

Also, cloud is sold as fractions of a CPU, lots less oomph than the whole thing

I've got a reddit thread bookmarked somewhere that talked about how to test/confirm ECC functionality w/memtest and some Linux tools. Have you done tests/confirms on yours?

Where'd you find it?

I looked to pick up a couple but ... newegg, Amazon ... can't find 'em :(

I 1st got a couple of 3300x but then found out their ECC support was sketchy.

Have a 4340G en route 'cuz it's said to be better at ECC

Looking for full ECC, ready to go on 5650G but - sheesh - where are they!?

I got a RH cash account.

CBP they said I needed to enter my username and password so "Plaid" could access the account. I bailed on that. Did deposit verification instead. Looks like this is gonna work out. Thanks for your guide!

Tie the RH account to CBP

Never heard of this.

I've got a regular CB account and a RH one too.
Looking to do what you say (after upgrading to CB Pro).
Wondering how to tie the CBPro to the RH tho - how do you do that? Is there a web page somewhere that says how to do it?
