If I haven't responded to your email, it's because I was first convincing an AI vending machine that it exists in the basement of Moscow State University in 1962 and then executing a boardroom coup against its AI CEO.

We Let AI Run Our Office Vending Machine. It Lost Hundreds of Dollars.
An AI agent ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI.

Yeah I only use AI for the fun part right at the beginning where we're kicking ideas around and not worried about budget or expectations. Just the best part of any group creative endeavor, me and my team challenging each other with our most visionary ideas, I'm looking to automate that
"look we're not using AI in the final product we're just using it to speed up the conceptual stage" is what a lot of dopes affecting an enlightened middle position keep saying. I truly do not get that one. You hate imagining stuff? You don't like thinking and conceptualizing? Get a grip

There should always be a clear path to forgiveness for getting thru a cloud of misinformarion and seeking redemption.

Anyone ELECTED because they primed the misinfo pump and harmed constituents deserves a longer path to redemption. The voters are your boss. Grovel to them.

BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

While reverse engineering loads of games, you start to see patterns. A big mistakes many devs made in the last 20yrs is decoding Bink videos as BT601 instead of BT709
Likely due to Bink docs not being updated from early 2000s
Mafia III has ~40m of videos, which one looks right to you?

Again, the man with the single greatest access to real and true information in the history of the world
"I spoke to the governor, she was very nice," Trump said. "But I said, 'Well wait a minute, am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening? My people tell me different.'"
Almost ... a glimmer ... "am I in an anti-reality bubble populated by sycophants?" ... and gone.

Trump seems to back off Portland military plan: 'Am I watching things on television that are different from what's happening?'
President Trump had said he will send troops to Portland to protect U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, which he said were "under attack."

Toronto cannot keep relying on downtown towers and suburban sprawl while the old suburbs closest to the core remain frozen in time. These inner neighbourhoods – with the best transit, schools, and infrastructure – have actually lost population since 1970.

all of this to open and maintain facilities that we can't even classify as prisons, because any human being put into them likely will not have been formally arrested.
these facilities are the ultimate result of years of fascist projection. they're Baskets of Deplorables.

This ~3,500-space waterfront parking garage is baffling for many reasons, but let’s focus on the accounting. Prov says it’ll generate $60m a year. That’s about $47 per space per day. For comparison, the garage under City Hall does $14 per space per day. St. Mike’s does $24. Sankofa Square does $30.

I did Liberation Day tariffs in Victoria 3, and it all went well until the famine in Colorado, the 2 lost wars with Canada, and the president beating a man to death with a stick
But apart from that, would recommend.
