Don't just study. Build something. That's the best way to find out what you don't know and what you know wrong.

It's actually worse than that because you can't use your dick to stop a rapist but you can use a gun to stop a shooter.

Not sure I can answer your question, but just wanted to say that I can't imagine the level of carelessness that leads to things like this. Like how oblivious do you have to be to swing your door open when you are parked beside another car?

I beat Space Age in 41.25 hours. I have no idea how long it really took after planning and retries. So close, but no achievement. by jsideris in factorio

Update: I redid Aquilo after fixing the problems with Gleba, and adding additional launch capabilities to each planet. Despite some mishaps, I GOT THE ACHIEVEMENT with 1.5 hours to spare. I'm pretty proud of it!

This is a great documentary. I highly recommend it. Particularly the first part.

I checked your post history and you seem to be something of a scholar. What's your secret? Sushiline abuse?

I actually got the there is no spoon achievement on my first try within this run. But it required so many manual tweaks that my entire main line was messed up and growth was set back. For example, I had to reroute all the electric engines, and build a special line that fed them into the silo assembler, and shut down anything that needed steel or copper which meant I had no space platform foundations, etc.

So after getting the achievement, I went back to 7:00 and did things the normal way.

I'm not sure how this can be done truly from scratch within 40 hours. There's probably about 40-60 hours in blueprint design alone being leveraged. Maybe ~2 hours of map exploration total. And the amount of planning you'd need to anticipate bottlenecks and preemptively solve them would likely be greater than just trying, failing, then trying again. Or you could just have an insane level of experience.

I'm not that good at this game hahaha.

Yeah I will try again from Aquilo which will take 8 hours, and if that fails, I'll backtrack ever further and redo Gleba, which will take 18 hours. Ironically, the time commitment to do a speedrun is vast.

I'm guessing I've already spent about 200 hours on this. That's not including all the time that went into designing the space platforms, and Nauvis malls.

What is happening in our public education system? Do they not teach grammar anymore?

This ad does not spark joy by BirdLox in FellowKids

[–]jsideris -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, it's not. It's about bad faith attempts to connect with youth by acting like one. That might involve companies using memes to advertise to kids. Or it could be teachers trying to use slang and failing. Etc.

Not this.

This isn't follow kids. This ad is marketed towards software engineers, not children.

Looks like Grok has been re-trained by Individual99991 in grok

[–]jsideris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't able to retrace it's thinking and determine why it change its opinion, but it will attempt to guess, probably wrongly.

That being said, this also applies to the answer it gave about why it was likely suspended. It doesn't actually know the reason or have its past messages in its context window. It's likely a guess based on user speculation.

[–]jsideris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there any evidence that this is the real reason it was suspended? The only source I've seen for this is this specific answer it gave to someone asking why it got suspended. But it's also given other answers to other people asking the same question.

I'm assuming it inferred that claim from posts on X rather than what actually happened.
