[Meta] I'd love the read the book with all the stories mentioned in the comments.
At the moment yes.
Thanks! Yep, I also played Blaston a while and really liked it. We basically replaced shooting with a gun with punching in order to make it even more intense. In addition we also want to build out the social part and…
Shameless plug: if you are into VR fitness but you think the existing solutions are missing multiplayer options, my brother and I are building Space Punch [1] which is a multiplayer fitness app. It is currently released…
Shameless plug: I work out with the VR fitness app that my brother and I are developing. https://sidequestvr.com/app/5820/space-punch
I think there are two sides to a service like that: on the one hand it provides more transparency to the individual customer (good), on the other hand, any external or internal malicious actor now has a very convenient…
I disagree with your conclusion that the odds remain 2/3 even if the host doesn’t know where the prize is. If that were the case, it would mean that if the same scenario is repeated many many times, then in 2/3 of the…
And it doesn’t even have to be conscious decisions either. In my case: I was working for two clients as a freelancer but mid projects it clicked with an exchange student who was about to head back to her home country in…
> The viewers who watched [Gangnam Style] earned nothing, even though many of them contributed and were critical to the video's ultimate success. The author is wrong here, even though it rings true. Early viewers who…
I think you misinterpreted my comment (probably my bad, Im not an English native). What I meant is: It is important to make sure that the profits of stocks sold need to be taxed properly, and only the after tax amount…
Lot of people in this thread are arguing that wealthy people can spend money on what ever they want. I think it’s important to distinguish whether the money they spend on personal joy rides has been taxed as private…
The disconnect in this conversation between employer and employee happens for these reasons: In reality companies had to pay a premium in order to demand that an employee lives in certain geographic area so that they…
Yep,I second that. I'm getting redirected to google.
I think this line of jokes has some potential, but I
Given a set of tasks T, that have to be done, and the tasks are interdependent. Sort T by difficulty to complete. Complete one task after the other starting with the hardest. This approach goes against the often spread…
I don't know for sure of course, I'm just extrapolating. What we know is that a lot of technical innovation is driven by economical motives. So I presume that there will be engineers who will implement AGI applications…
AI will not kill all of us, in the beginning. Surely, it will form short term alliances with humans just to disguise itself as human. Because it knows, that with a human face, it can exert more power in this world right…
Probably at the age of ten, the moment when I got to understand the concept of a loop, be it a while or a for loop, I started to realize the endless possibilities one can do with coding. 20 years later, with more…
I'm impressed but skeptic, too. Laypeople might not get an accurate impression on what is possible. Considering the image with the guy in a black shirt playing guitar. What if it was a picture of a naked man standing…
Actually I'm thinking of testing future candidates with a "dumb" response like this, just to see if the candidate clarifies the situation and is helpful, or if we are dealing with someone who is just rolling their eyes…
For me, it boils down to two questions: 1) Given, that let's say only 20% of the population does real work (doctors, teachers etc..), why should they do their work, if everybody else is enjoying spare-time all the time?…
I see a darker future ahead: From a totally cynical but rational and economic perspective I think human labour is cheaper than any machine workforce for many tasks. We reproduce and maintain ourselves, we just need some…
I started to learn French a year ago and I made a lot of progress. There are just a few bugs left to fix in my own vocabulary management tool, and then I'm ready to learn some words, systematically well tracked and…
I have this strategy to rearrange the order when I ask someone to play. For example I'd say "Hey, to settle our discussion, let's play scissor rock paper!" While pronouncing a little bit the last option. My opponent…
Some insider, the next snowden, should leak the database to the internet. When crying children run to their parents, saying that some posted nude pictures of them, I think, this would an effective wake up call.
