If they were any more inbred, they'd be a sandwich.

if they really cared about intellectual property rights, this would be OPT-IN.

It's not like dedicated people aren't going to be able to just patch out the calls to this API from the apps themselves...

This feels like yet another attempt at DRM that is doing more harm than help.

They're pretty reasonable for consensus-based programming prompts as well like "Compare and contrast popular libraries for {use case} in {language}" or "I want to achieve {goal/feature} in {summary of project technologies}, what are some ways I could structure this?"

Of course you still shouldn't treat any of the output as factual without verifying it. But at least in the former case, I've found it more useful than traditional search engines to generate leads to look into, even if I discard some or all of the specific information it asserts

Edit: Which is largely due to traditional search engines getting worse and worse in recent years, sadly

This is the best article I've seen yet on the topic. It does mention the "how" in brief, but this analogy really explains the "why" Gonna bookmark this in case I ever need to try to save another friend or family member from drinking the Flavor-Aid

As long as it has good writing... and maybe they turn down the crudity a touch... I think it has the potential to be well-received.

So sorry you're going through it. Hoping you can find the strength to polish up your resume and spend some time on your days off looking for a better place to work. The best time to be looking for a job is when you already have one.

I haven't played Callisto Protocol, but it seems like it's explicitly a spiritual successor, yeah

Without giving any specific spoilers, the game has a primarily archaeological feel, you will be following breadcrumbs around to various places in the solar system (your journal is important!!!) and learning about the ancient civilization that mysteriously disappeared. finally piecing together the whole picture is one of the most powerful moments I've ever had in gaming. while there are some NPCs to talk to, the game is primarily driven by your own exploration and the knowledge you pick up along the way.

there's no "correct order" to do things in, so if you feel like you've hit a dead end or you can't figure out what you should be doing at a particular place, consider going somewhere else. and most importantly: follow your curiosity

Back when I was in high school, it wasn't uncommon for teachers to use the same restrooms as the students. I can't quite remember but I think there were only a couple staff toilets on the campus, one in each gendered locker room and one in the front office.

Anyway, my point is there's at least the possibility that the principal was just using the bathroom normally and the poor kid was being... less than subtle about what he was doing in the stall.

If anyone hasn't played this game yet: don't read the article!

I highly recommend you experience this for yourself while knowing as little as possible about it. Top tier game.

I'm not too familiar with the handheld PC space, but one thing that stuck out to me was the IR webcam. I wonder whether that will enable some neat things in the same vein as the Nintendo Switch's IR sensor.
