It's kinda sad, with all the time an money spent on VR, HL:Alyx remains the only truly great VR game.

Nope, it was just a QA town hall at the old Ottawa office. I think everyone was pretty confused by the remark.

I remember one town hall where he was asked "If you had to start over again, what sort of company would you start?" and his answer was "I wouldn't, all the good ideas are already taken."

Ok, but let's take this to the logical conclusion that at some point there will be models which displace a large segment of the workforce. How does capitalism even function then?

My worry is what happens once large segments of the population become unemployable.

| context window
I actually just asked a question on the physics stack exchange that is semi relevant to this. https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/810429/functiona...
In my question I was asking about a hypothetical time-evolution operator that includes an analog of a light cone that you could think of as a context window. If you had a quantum state that was evolved through time by this operator then I think you could think of the speed of light being a byproduct of the width of the context window of some operator that progresses the quantum state forward by some time interval.
Note I am very much hobbyist-tier with physics so I could also be way off base and this could all be nonsense.

I've been thinking about his a bit lately. If time is non-continuous then could you model the time evolution of the universe as some operator recursively applied to the quantum state of the universe? If each application of the operator progresses the state of the universe by a single planck-time could we even observe a difference between that and a universe where time is continuous?

Absolutely man!! I've been trying to tell my neighbor this for ages. I keep taking shits on his lawn and he's getting all upset about it saying that it's ruining his lawn. I tell him I value questioning like a skeptic, something like a Socratic dialog. Kind of unfair to call me deluded just because he and many others have reached a conclusion long ago.

There is also a massive consideration on the type of ammo being used. Hollow point vs steel core is gonna have very different effects.

Then what? What happens when nobody is employable?

Alternate take: Regulation should be turned up to 11 and AI should be nationalized so that the benefits go to society instead of a handful of billionaires

At this point they should just write a grid cell rendering process so you can play eve entirely in excel

>According to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging.
Wow sounds like a real genius. I wonder if he also wore a shirt saying I AM STEALING FROM YOU to work?

If anyone wants a mini AMA I went to Waterloo and have personally been into the tunnels (and was never caught!)

Unless you're in your early teens and don't plan on having kids until you're in your 30's this proba
