How much instruction perf analysis do they do to save 1% (compounded) on the most common instructions

it's less that and more all the peripheral things. USB, wifi, bluetooth, ram, random capacitors in the VRM etc.

Look at Nintendo, they're creating opportunities even when they try to stop anyone from using their things.

Probably trained on Nintendo datasets, "decisions are made very carefully"

The best Google will do in terms of customer support is...

This reminds me of the book I have on my shelf titled "Everything I Understand About Women". It's a hard cover book >1" thick with lots of blank pages. Probably one of the best gag gifts I've received

<edited for typo>

I assume you meant "on my shelf", but what you wrote is pretty amusing.

haha, yeah, gotta love typos that can change the meaning

heh that’s a great idea as a gift. you can change the subject about anything. just in time for the holiday season.

it’s still usable as a notebook or sketchpad if nothing else.

well, it is properly a hard cover book, so the cover is stamped with the title/author/publisher in gold foil like an older book. it looks exactly like a real published hard cover book sitting on the shelf. the only indication it's not real is when you thumb through the pages. it does look authentically older, say 70s/80s time frame. my guess is that it's out of print. <ducks>

As soon as you gamify something, it ceases to be the same kind of problem it was in its original form. I can't say work was gamified, but it certainly feels closer to that considering the core ideas behind the NFT/crypto gamification craze.

Rename Reddit to Y instead

but you're already on the Y website right now...

SpaceX, ___, X/Twitter, and YCombinator.

Doesn't quite spell out S3XY yet. Who's the 3 supposed to be?

Program-by-diagram works for some game engines, for example Unreal Engine storyboard. I'm fairly sure that current AI will run into an issue that plagues business requirements: meetings. It'll be an outlet that actually generates some MVP after the conversation.

College projects were full of these kinds of issues. You'd be part of a group where there's say four of you, one or two are trying to control the direction, the remaining two are looking at each other simply trying to understand what language the first two are speaking. After working for say the first iteration, everyone has a chance to prove themselves, work/responsibilities/design-input naturally shift towards or away from individuals.

To your point about the "mold" which society creates/accepts, this social aspect alone is likely the biggest factor. People aren't and can't break out of these social "holds" and what's ironic is that there's almost a financial/social/system level safety net built into most countries. It's socially irresponsible there?
