Dang I didn’t realize they were still updating this game, it’s been around for a long time.

There it is, I remember reading his Truth Social post where he was nice to Biden about it when it first came out and going “There’s no way he doesn’t say something horrible once he’s asked live on camera.”

I mean spaghetti code is a part of learning a new tool, my first Unity projects I did back in highschool have some really bad spaghetti code. I’ve since learned from then and found better ways to organize things to avoid that. But yeah if you’re just letting AI write your spaghetti you’re not gonna understand why it’s bad and that prevents learning what you can do better next time.

You mean when you let people work less for the same pay they’re happier? I would never imagine that, such a “dramatic” result.

I’ll take one for $1

I mean if he’s genuinely interested in learning Unity and just using AI to help with learning that’s good, but yeah if he’s just making the AI do all the work and relying on it then yeah probably not gonna go good.

He’s realizing what all of the other rich people have already realized, its easier to just manipulate things from the background so people won’t get mad at you.

They reserve the clever loop holes and actual fighting for when they want to stop progressives from having power in the party.

“It won’t be long before Democrats are back in the driver’s seat again,” Padilla added. “When that happens, all bets will be off. Every agency action that Democrats don’t like — whether it’s a rule or not — will be fair game, from mining permits and fossil fuel projects to foreign affairs and tax policies.”

Yeah I’ll believe it when I see it, I have zero faith in Democrats taking advantage of this expansion of power to do any good

I mean it’s not just file format problems as well. It’s also the fact that generally you’ll need a professional license for whatever software you’re using since you’re not using it for personal use and it’s probably cheaper and easier to buy a ton of licenses from one company then splitting it between different companies based on what people want. There’s also the fact that especially for bigger companies they’ll have custom tools and templates already made that work in that software. Some of that is file format for things like templates but any custom scripts or tools would probably have to be rewritten to support other types of creative tools. Plus at the end of the day it’s just easier if all of your employees are using the same tools so they can collaborate easier and ask for help on things easier.

I wouldn’t be surprised if at this point with the prices they charge, most of Adobe’s users are either working somewhere that has it, or are students who want to work professionally with it, or are people in between jobs who need to keep up skills in it for when they can go back to work. Most anyone I talk to who isn’t doing things professionally and doesn’t plan to go professional will use something like Gimp instead of Photoshop if cost is an issue.

Outside of this though there’s also just the fact that it being the industry standard does tend to cause non-professionals to use it too. Whether it be because they view it as better then the alternatives, or they want to get experience in case they ever want to use it professionally, or they just haven’t heard of anything else and the tutorials they were able to find for what they wanted to do used Adobe products.

Either way though I bet that the majority of the money Adobe makes is from companies buying tons of pro licenses rather than from individual people using it.

I mean it’s not just not wanting to learn a new UI. It’s that a company uses Adobe as it’s standard so if you don’t have experience with it they won’t hire you. And if you try to come in using a different tool they’re just gonna end up forcing you to use Adobe.

Yeah I’m really starting to feel like we’re gonna see a lot of these companies shift from doing big AAA games to instead publishing small indie games. Almost all of these big companies have indie publishing arms now and as they start to see good profits from those without having to take on the cost of paying devs themselves I wouldn’t be surprised if they start cutting back on their own dev teams and shifting to that.

I mean there’s always gonna be new libraries or frameworks or whatever that will have their own questions to be asked. I think the problem is at a certain point you’ve reached the maximum audience you can appeal to. Which I feel StackOverflow very much has but of course corporations have to keep making greater and greater profits so once you maximize audience you have to find other methods for profit. Which is what leads to rebrand stuff like this.

Yeah I definitely agree, both Kamala and Obama are candidates that acted progressive in their primaries but as soon as they eventually got the nomination they went towards the corporate Democrat establishment. My main question is whether they were progressive at some point but let themselves be changed by the establishment, consultants, and donors or if they never really cared that much to begin with. The end state is the same but the difference is important as it gives us insight into how much power the consultants and others have over candidates vs if they didn’t really care then it wouldn’t have taken much to change them.

With Obama they just learned how to take a somewhat progressive candidates and bend them into a moderate. It’s the same thing that happened with Kamala, although of course it’s hard to say if either were ever really progressive or if they just used that for votes and didn’t mind discarding it once they got pressured by the party and consultants.

I mean the problem is the people getting deported don’t have access to guns. They most likely can’t get them legally since they’re not citizens and even if they could get them they probably don’t have the money to afford one.

How much you wanna bet Musk told some employee to make this change and now they’re gonna get shafted for going along with it by other management at xAI? I’m not saying you need to feel bad for the person but this very much feels like they’re gonna shift blame away from Elon and on to someone else to cover it up and deny that he wanted this change.

I mean I think the argument is they’ve always served as a gestapo. It’s ramping up a little more recently but I’m pretty sure even in the 2000s and 2010s they were still infiltrating “radical” environmental groups.

I mean let’s assume he does support Hamas (he doesn’t, the furthest I’ve really seen him go is saying their resistance is justified in the face of genocide). But if we assume he does personally like them, should that put you in prison? It’s clear they were trying to get him to say something that they could detain him for, which is then pretty understandable why he “wimped out” in that situation. The fact that they were asking him about that to potentially detain him over it is insane and clearly a first amendment violation.
