Oh there’s no fixing mathematics, it’s fundamentally broken and we all know it (well, incomplete, but you know humor and all that)

I hate being right

Why do people keep being fooled by rich assholes

It’s kinda sad how many times people have thrown out racial (and other) slurs in my games. You’d think people would have grown out of that by now

But… Then that’s literally false?

Yeah, modern AI-assistants are LLMs, that’s not surprising. I’d even argue that LLMs are the right tool for the job here (but not all AI, or at least only as the part that binds the rest together)

Okay, but dolphins don’t have writing or any other means of storing arbitrary information. If an alien had that capability, which they will if they are a civilization, things might be very different

Because we would live in a shared reality, if both species were to try to achieve communication, we would start out with something as simple as the basic building blocks of reality, like, say, the elements of the periodic table, to build out the foundation of communication. Then you would incorporate stuff like math and logic, and then it’s downhill from there

There are ways to build up a system of communication even though the two sides are as different from each other as they can be, because ultimately, as we share the same reality, we have an objective basis to base our method of communication on. And that’s all you need. It doesn’t matter if we speak and they use odors, if we can both agree that hydrogen is hydrogen, and we can both perceive that we are in presence of hydrogen

This is just posadism

However I have a slight problem in that I struggle to connect to my mirror image even when awake and sober lmao

Then again, sometimes it does feel like I’m dreaming when awake and sober so

Sure, but deadlock isn’t exactly late. And if there’s a time when you want to add more developers, then an alpha when the game is still in the early stages is the best time to do so

I mean, they’re not gonna stop developing deadlock once it comes out. It’s likely gonna be a decade long project at least. More hands won’t hurt.

Why would it never be easy? There’s no fundamental reason for why it can’t work as well as on windows, or any other operating system

Private companies, especially global ones, have too much power. Isn’t it kinda fucked up how a company can overrule laws in multiple countries all over the world, just due to how strong their presence is?

Ok but this is very simple. Everyone can set up something like this using home assistant and a few sensors connected up to it

Maybe you just don’t like MOBAs, to me it’s one of the most promising upcoming pvp games, but I am someone who likes MOBAs and shooters

Also the “kid repeller” devices (because yes, it also includes younger people such as infants, and also older people), is that it just makes the world a hostile place for young people, and then later people turn around and complain how “nobody goes outside anymore”

In addition, this severely affects animals too

It’s in closed beta right now

I never said it makes the language “correct”, more that language is fluid and there’s no need to correct people

Unless a typo or spelling mistake is so common it becomes widely used, it’s fair to say it’s just a mistake

However, when you put periods at the end of stuff like text messages, it sounds almost passive aggressive, doesn’t it?

It’s the difference between

“Okay”

And

“Okay.”

If course, ultimately language is about (efficient) communication. And as long as that is satisfied, grammar is secondary. Like if there is ambiguity, asking for clarification is very much not pedantic

There is of course some nuance and leeway, but I still think it’s fairly obvious where the line goes

But ultimately, yes, language is nuanced and constantly evolving, it’s very neat though

Skyes unite

I don’t think it’s that hard, the line is mainly “is this hard to understand?” If yes then correcting or discussing it is not prescriptivism, if no, then you’re just being pedantic

Just take texting or internet comments for example, how many are missing punctuation? How many are using slang terms or shortenings of words? How many are straight up omitting/skipping words? How many are making liberal use of language to either express themselves or have some emotional impact? Or just don’t put in the effort to do grammar

After all, I miss punctuation in this very comment as well, especially at the end of paragraphs, in addition to skipping words or making liberal use of language like “do grammar”. Is that grammatically correct? Absolutely not, but you understand what I mean

Assuming informal communication, of course. Formal communication is more about being proper, and ties into cultural norms of formality etc
