That isn't what they said, and it's probably not what they meant. What they probably meant was that Nintendo testers use their non-dominant hands to simulate someone who has no prior experience with video game controls. (Though I&

That's not really a good comparison, no. The code snippet is more comparable to a sentence fragment, which more often than not is "gibberish". For example, taken out of its original context, this sentence fragment from your c

I could be wrong, but doesn't notepad++ have an option to choose which symbols are considered a part of a word? If it's not notepad++, I'm thinking of xed. That would help with at least a part of this person's complaints

That would be a good way to destroy the reputation of your company lmao. Leaving nothing but horrors in your wake. Kind of funny, though, even if it's cruel to everyone who comes after you.

I am curious why you yourself have "blurted out the answer" if you enjoyed the opposite from the article? This isn't a callout or anything, I'm just genuinely curious.

Because if a baker's oven breaks and they can't provide their service, they cannot charge for their service, and customers can easily go to some other bakery.

Anyone know why the fuck the comments on the linked site are talking about Kyle Rittenhouse? Did I miss something?

A video about a pretty interesting and ingenious piece of forgotten software. The ingenious part starts at about 48:00 if you lack time or patience.

They can probably do anything, but why would they when Fandom puts 3 gigabytes of their ads on every page of every wiki on their site? That's their bread and butter. You don't kill your livestock until you have to.

If "China, India, Iran, Israel, et al" have had AI for a while, the US didn't really "unleash" it, did they?

"Unleashed AI"? Really? I don't know what you think has happened, but we've just barely got realistic chatbots. Skynet is nowhere near invented yet.

I read "submarine cables" and imagined a sort of monorail or guide-wire for an underwater vehicle. I thought, "I guess that makes sense, that'd probably be cheaper or safer than an untethered submarine". It's f

that's actually a good point, I didn't know orbital decay was so slow

while they don't have the fuel to deorbit themselves, they will eventually deorbit due to orbital decay. Still, as you said, they won't fall straight down, and would probably burn up in the atmosphere regardless.
