This title has been in off/on development for more than a decade. I first heard about it from internal devs in 2012 and it had already been rebooted once by then. The trailer made me decide nope before I even knew the game genre because it explicit avoided the game

Does it list the vectors it basis similarity on? It’s quite possible that they use some things Every city has making the similarity be much closer than if they had truly identifying criteria

When I took this photo I thought it was an interesting piece of fluff. I was astonished to find that it was a butternut woolyworm caterpillar! #StunDay #nature #photography #naturephotography #ECK #Wildlife #insects
A butternut woolyworm caterpillar hanging off the left edge of a green leaf. The caterpillar is white and resembles milkweed fluff. The green branch of the leaf crosses the photo in the background.

Sooo there doesn't exist a color picker that suits all my specific needs, so I made my own: * HSV, sRGB and linear RGB all at once * Byte-valued (0..255) and float-valued (0..1) strings ready to copy into code * Several pickers on the same page to compare colors lisyarus.github.io/color-picker/

Ok, its been a while so I should remind you how over-the-top and explody my game 'Ridiculous Space Battles' actually is. Here is a clip. You can wish-list it at store.steampowered.com/app/3607230/... Its an auto-battler coming in the next few months and its going to be cool. I'm very proud of it!

It’s quite possible that the gaming audience is both growing and shrinking at the same time. By that I mean the single game ecosystem folks are growing, but the ones that are searching for something else are shrinking due comparative numbers

I do not either. Most of the players don’t either. Hence the live service treadmill is a continually evolving thing to keep people interested

Madlibs are about putting the least statistically likely word in the blank. LLMs put the most statistically likely. madlibs are funny because they are unexpected. LLMs are never funny. Well some hallucinations are funny

I have tons of images that are far bigger than 8k. They are about 1gb each if not compressed. does color space matter? What are you testing?

Most big studios self host their AI infrastructure because the risk of leaks is too great. It’s really the smaller users that are at risk there.

Not much left to burn in UT but somehow fires keep starting. 35 mph winds today and 8% humidity so the fire danger is pretty scary
