Garbage

Go to book stores and retro game stores. And the library. Some libraries have movies, music, and videogames in addition to books.

It comes out of their pocket because unions tend to negotiate for better pay

The Venn diagram of people who play D&D and people who get excited about fancy D20s is practically a circle

I suppose my setup already has “Xcode command line tools” installed, so gcc works as expected. It’s been a while but IIRC the process for installing the command line tools is pretty self explanatory.

I remember WSL being a whole process to setup, but it’s been a while, and as you might guess, I’m a lot more familiar with Mac than Windows.

What I do know is I had to support a Python project on all 3 OSes and Windows was by far the hardest to get working. We were deliberately not using WSL for that scenario.

Mac is very similar to Linux in that it comes with bash (these days zsh) and a lot of the command line tools you’d expect on Linux, including gcc and python3 installed by default. You’ll want them to have a decent text editor with code coloring. Sublime is what I was taught to use in university.

Windows is more difficult. The command line is very different (it inherits from DOS instead of Unix like both Mac and Linux). It doesn’t come with Python pre-installed. I’ve generally installed git-bash when working on Windows. There are some Python libraries that work fine on both Mac and Linux but have issues on Windows.

You could look into VSCode which is a decent IDE that works on all platforms. Of course, an IDE can be a bit of an information overload for a beginner, especially something like VSCode that’s constantly pushing AI features and plug-ins.

I think the one I have is the BP60NB10 LG Slim Portable. It looks like prices are at around $100-$130 for it online now though, I think they are not made anymore. I got mine up at a local computer store a long time ago.

I’d just try to understand why they feel that way to make sure you aren’t missing anything.

Is it the pay cut? 20% sounds pretty significant to me but 2% isn’t, but in the end if you are making enough to live the way you want that’s all you need.

Is it the career path options? That can be more complicated, but if there’s nothing you would want from “climbing the ladder” that’s up to you.

There are some external/portable USB blu ray drives that work with MakeMKV and cost like $30.

I have set up WireGuard manually running on a home server. It’s not that hard to set up IMO but that definitely depends on your experience level.

Other than that I’d second Tailscale which is similar but easier to set up

People who’s opinion tends to be “anything ‘the west’ does is bad and anything ‘the east’ does is good”, regardless of the specifics of what you are talking about.

This is what it did to my anime:

It’s less egregious on live action content but still noticeable

It brings you gorgeous frames like this:

In smash bros, turn the launch multiplier all the way up and turn on sudden death mode so everyone starts at 300%.

Go to one of a few levels (the underground area of Hyrule Temple works, the underground area of Skyworld is better, but it’s best if you make a custom stage)

Getting hit once will send you bouncing around the screen! You only ever die if you get unlucky. It’s hilarious, and we call it “Pinball Mode”. I’ve made a couple custom stages to improve on the experience.

Backend programming is almost all Linux. I have two computer science degrees and have only ever used Windows for gaming.

• its not that hard to get Mega Blaziken out
• its possible and not even that uncommon to attack with Mega Blaziken as early as turn 2
• once mega Blaziken is out you need a pokemon with at least 150 HP to survive even a single turn. Make that 170 HP if Blaziken has rocky helmet
• this 150HP pokemon has to be able to do at least 70 damage per turn, and that’s assuming they don’t have any copies of Lillie, and you have to have 2 fresh copies of this pokemon ready to attack, and this Pokémon’s attack probably needs to be 1 or maybe 2 cost
• If you don’t have 2 fresh copies of that pokemon it needs to do 110 damage per turn and you need Cyrus

Maybe your bad experience with mega Blaziken is due to the other cards you are running. Heatmor is not very useful compared to something like Entei EX from my experience.

The question of “do they think” is a little complicated because I don’t think there is a clear enough definition of what counts as “thinking” to say. This discussion should be independent of the quality of LLM results.

As for what they are actually doing:

Imagine a mathematical function that takes in a series of numbers and spits out the next number in that series.

A “neural network” is just a fairly general mathematical model to describe any function, and using curve fitting techniques we can approximate the previously described number pattern function.

Now assign each letter to a number and define the pattern being a large block of text consisting of almost the entire internet.

Now that we’ve trained our mathematical model, we can give it some text and let it complete it, and it will produce a somewhat reasonable answer.

There are more math and computational tricks going on, and a couple more steps to get from a completion model to a conversational one, but this is the jist of how it works.
