I use it all the time. It works fine.
A friendly reminder that GIMP and Da Vinci Resolve are things that exist.
Probably a seasonal thing between months. Music and books seem to be on the rise here.
Well, another party that is willing to actually govern is welcome to stand up for itself and replace the GOP.
Until that happens, we have the GOP, a party that is ran by gaslighting, obstructionism, and projection, who’s real purpose has been laid bare for decades: To take our government, and “reduce it to the size where [they] can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub”. And the Democrats, a party that has its own flaws, but actually wants to enact laws and run the country.
One of these parties wants to actively destroy our government, and one of them doesn’t.
I mean, I don’t know about you, but I have something like 50 different other games in my backlog. I don’t need to play any specific game on a console.
I can wait. Years, even. It’ll arrive on Steam eventually. And I’ll play it. Eventually.

That’s kind of a global problem, not really tied to the industry as a whole.
The difference is that a CS degree is actually useful. You wouldn’t believe the amount of people with a bachelors/masters in some random degree (like math or music) that end up getting a programming job.
The programming industry is only growing. Tools like CoPilot and modern IDE might may it slightly easier, but there is no shortage of things that need development.
Music is so easy to make nowadays, and everybody wants to be a musician. It is an extreme oversaturated industry, and people keep falling into the same mistake of making it a career choice.
Same with acting, art, writing, and most creative positions.
The largest stock investors are institutional investors managing funds on behalf of retirement plans. Those investors tend to prefer consistent long term growth over a narrow quarterly growth target, and will actually look at things beyond just stock price, like strategy and long term market prospects.
Based on what evidence? They just make sure the line steadily goes up each quarter, instead of accounting for companies that invest potential profits into longer-term plans. If not, the 401K investor will either drop the stock, or put it in a higher-risk plan.
That sort of thinking is akin to corporate suicide when in a publicly-traded market, so they don’t do it.
A company like Valve isn’t publicly-traded, and they have a limited number of investors they can talk to about their plans. That and they have a reputation of quality products, so even the investors are going to put up with short-term drops in profitability for even more profits.
Valve does good not because they don’t have shareholders, but because their leadership is not gonna get fired for thinking about next year instead of next quarter. So they don’t squeeze the consumers for every dime, so people stick with them, and developers stay even though their fee schedule is not the best because they have all the people.
All of that short-term thinking is because of the stock market. All of their shareholders think of, day in and day out, is “line go up”.
This is the real answer.
That requires a functional Congress, which is really only achieved by getting rid of the GOP disease in all three branches.
The power of those chips matters a great deal. If China is producing mostly chips supporting IoT devices, and its imports are computer chips of the Intel/AMD variety, it doesn’t have nearly as much impact as the title implies.
No. No, they can’t. This shit still takes lots and lots of training data.
It’s just like any job. You can’t just fully fake something in one day. At best, you might get 60% of the way there, maybe 80% after adding on some generic experience. But, you’re not going to fully mimic anything without lots of training and experience.
Internet Archive is also doing this with web pages, sooo…

Seems petty and harsh to me. It’s just some dude talking about his opinions about Portal.
Mr. Newell, right? Because he wasn’t doing enough?
