  • I've seen a colleague write an API interface for support technicians with AI. As he adds to it or makes changes, the AI breaks something somewhere else. When you ask how to do something he struggles to find where it is on the interface. He says it should be in the documentation, but he doesn't know where because he vibe coded the documentation as well. Then when he needs to just incorporate extra devices with the same API it becomes a gauntlet because he's not sure what the AI did for the first set and the new set only gets half the functionality. On top of that, we are running days behind schedule because we spend so much time on debugging it.

    If this was done properly from the ground up it would be less messy, have more intent, and it could be a framework for other projects.

  • Did you include "don't make mistakes" in the prompt? No? Rookie mistake bro.

  • I have no idea what your sofa analogy is trying to say.

    My friends and I made fun of ff7s terrible graphics when it came out, but the game was so good the bad graphics didn't matter. Ff16 looked amazing, but the game is so boring it doesn't matter.

    People don't want bleeding edge from final fantasy, they want a good game.

  • There was a stretch in the late 90s where squaresoft released a final fantasy nearly every year for 5 years. Now it's once every 7+ years. I don't believe it should be that hard to make games these days. There are more people working on the projects, more tools and pre-made engines/libraries available. It's purely a management/budgeting problem.

  • I think the problem with BMI is when people misunderstand what it's for. Is not an "am I fat" tool. It's specifically about heart health and it's not used in isolation. The more mass you have (fat or muscle) the more your heart has to work. It's naive to ignore it just because the word "obese" has become an offensive term.

  • I always thought it was a dumb plot point, but obviously it's whatever "half" definition however Thanos thought of it. So probably just half of sentient creatures, or something. The point is, the answer is whatever Thanos wanted.

  • When the CEO keeps saying they'll have full auto pilot in the next few years for over a decade, then complains that the problem is the government stopping then from rolling it out, you start to question if it should ever be rolled out. At least maybe not by a for profit entity who puts profits before safety.

  • That's only if you only consider the 3 main characters. They each have relationships with recurring characters.

  • When Carson came back they clearly establish he is a clone.

  • As Dr Karl says: gambling is a tax for being bad at math

  • You must be deliberately ignoring things at this point.

    Have you never seen a science fiction time travel film where a person occupies the same timeline more than once? You've not seen Back to the Future? Or Doctor Who? Or more then half of any TV show or movie about time travel?

    Also, travelling really fast to time travel, while not grounded in reality, is actually based off the theory of relativity and time dilation. It was also the premise of the Planet of the Apes films.

  • In this comic, they are suggesting that Superman going really fast will impart a physical force onto the planet Earth, like grabbing a spinning basketball and making it spin in the opposite direction. The affect shown here is that the objects on the surface of the planet will experience being thrown around.

    This is based on a misinterpretation of what happens in the 1978 feature film Superman, starring Christopher Reeves. In the final act of this film Lex Luther presents two simultaneous threats for Superman to react to: a missile launched to kill many people, and Lois Lane in mortal danger. As the viewer we are expecting to watch him choose one over the other. He stops the missile, Lois Lane dies. Stricken by grief he comes up with a plan to travel back in time, presumably by travelling faster than light. Having travelled back to before Lois died there is now two Supermans: past Superman who is currently dealing with the missile, and now future Superman who goes and saves Lois. At a certain point past Superman travels back in time and there are no longer two Supermans.

    So, it turns out that the author of the comic is the moron and relies on falsehoods for their punchline to be valid.

  • Buddy, listen to what people are trying to tell you. The Earth doesn't change direction, time changes direction. We are watching the earth "re-winding". Superman individually goes back in time and we see from his perspective time going backwards. He doesn't impart forces on the planet to turn it backwards on it's revolution.

    He did it because he has to choose between stopping the missile or saving Lois. Going back in time means there's 2 Supermans for a short period of time so he can do both.

  • Technically recording TV on VHS is piracy, but in practice no one is getting sued for it.

  • It was a weird combination of remake and prequel. It hit all the same story points and barely added anything new apart from Tetris aliens.

  • So, it sounds like it doesn't offer a remote streaming service like Plex then. You just publicly expose or use a VPN like you can with Plex.

  • You can get around this by extending your network with a VPN. I know that's an extra config, but a lot of people who are setting up home labs are already doing this anyway.

    How does jellyfin offer remote streaming without a VPN?
