  • “Gaming is becoming unaffordable” — Xbox CEO says the industry has an accessibility crisis

    Jump

  • Well no but also yes.

    An Atari 2600 was $160 in 1979. Cartridges were $25-40. Adjust for inflation and that's $738.56 for a console and $115-184 per cartridge.

    Also minimum wage was $2.90 ($13.39). Median family income was $19,660 ($90,750.94).

    And it was new tech.

    So the prices have come down. There are a lot of amazing games that are cheap that you can play basically forever. Minecraft, Dead Cells, Skyrim, etc.

    But our expectations have risen while our wages have come down.

    So not wrong, but not right for the reasons you'd assume.

    So they're saying the LLM is, in fact, an LLM.

  • You just have to have them own property in this particular town, so buy a small building, multifamily, convert it to condos, put each condo under a different LLC, one condo one vote. Or maybe buy a field, or an old farm. Not sure how many parcels you can split that up into. How many legally distinct property deeds you can pack in there. Might depend on zoning, or that might just be for building.

  • From what I've seen programmers are using Claude a lot. It may still cause problems in the medium to long term by squeezing out junior developers or atrophying the skills of senior developers, but in the meantime it is speeding up production of code.

    It's also making scams a lot easier by simulating real human communication, up to and including video chat.

    I'm not sure what will cool down the hype. It's almost exclusively driven by c-suite morons who find AI very useful for writing unclear emails and inaccurate notes. The sort of things they'd do themselves before. Even programmer who adopt it are mostly quietly muddling along.
