Do you actually believe in their altruistic goals?

That is not accurate either, a large percentage of bugs historically were never crashes but subtle or less subtle incorrect behavior.

Yes.

I like these AI threads with everyone's measurement of how good a model is starting with: "it feels like..." and that says a lot on how incapable we are to judge and compare these models.

How were they allowed to "sell" those titles in the first place then? Because it was never implied that access might be lost or restricted,it was very much sold to customers,not rented. As for Destiny not working,this is a related

Because Sony and all digital publishers with the exception of GOG are lying thieves. This is just another step in getting rid of ownership, and we are too naive and passive to stand up against it. Physical copies are a must to retain any se

Sure, just to clarify, I am not arguing that c++ doesn't work, only that c++ produced binaries are either having more dll dependencies, or are more bloated (in size). I also tried clang-cl and MingW, and while both work, the binaries p

Even trivial stuff causes the linking to vcruntime, this is an extra dll dependency that I don't tolerate, no msvcrt, no vcruntime, nothing except core Win32 dlls are allowed on the platform. Static linking can relieve some of this pai

Understood, yes, but I described my reasons in my reply to another comment already. Your proposed solution is not equivalent to what I am doing, it cannot work on all the systems I support, and would never be as dependency free.

by integricho 3mo ago
Have you checked what dll dependencies you get if you build such an app? And have you actually tried running such an executable on win9x?

For the last couple of years I got into retro computing, realized how much more I enjoyed the 9x era Windows systems compared to anything that came later, and made it a personal goal that if I build anything, it will have to work on Windows

Yes, I am building GUI apps. This "standard library" of mine is built from the ground up in a cross platform manner, such that it compiles on Windows wrapping Win32, with Windows 95 being the CI machine, making sure it works on th

I believe you are miscalculating the effect of skill atrophy, there is benefit and actual experience gained by doing the work yourself. You are an experienced dev and already have a lot of tools and knowledge under your belt so at the momen

Agreed, I thought this is a wrapper for STL under Python, what does the py prefix stand for here actually? As for the why c++ at all, as long as one falls into the "don't care" category, it works fine.. lately I found myself

But they haven't been good performers, and don't deserve joining s&p, and that is the point, do not make exceptions just because Elon Musk or whatever delusional billionaire says so.

Most of the teagames flash games are sadly lost, never found them archived even here, yet they were among the best for me, e.g. Top Dog II was so fun back in the day. Teagames was taken over I think and the old games are all lost.

I believe it supports only projects having a working cmake setup, no extra magic

what are you talking about?

It is so rich hearing that America can attack anybody, but godforbid an attack on the "homeland" is an unforgivable act that will invoke nukes immediately.

I came here for the article, stayed for the drama.

I thought this is a sort of campaign / kickstarter site to prioritize which dead games are in highest demand, in pursuit of reverse engineering and building servers for them.

So you are an anthropic / openai employee, actually.

I periodically check if Top Dog II (from teagames, now nonexistent) has been added as it was one of my favorite flash games, but it still isn't there. I admire the work and I really support preservation projects. Hope Top Dog II can be

Written by an anthropic employee, I mean how seriously can you take that piece? pure hype

I don't think you ever tried using something truly snappy and responsive, this statement couldn't be farther from the truth.

Thank god it's not those pesky windmills...

Calling "telling the LLM what to do" coding is dishonest, and I have no respect for any of this.

So they are taking the oil reserves, that's why they came, oh the hypocrisy is unbearable, the democratic powerhouse terrorising a weak country the same way for what they condemned Russia for.
