This leaves out the fact that attempting to make a human out of these just results in an abomination (and the ability to do alchemy without a transmutation circle).

This may be tangential, but the interesting thing to me about the Warcraft Wiki is that it serves the lore and API information in great detail and is my go-to resource for those. But when it comes to precise data about the content (e.g. spell data and its coefficients), guides for current content, etc. Wowhead has much more relevant content in greater detail - which is a shame because to me the navigability and discoverability on Wowhead is nowhere near as good as MediaWiki.

My dream is somebody takes the data from Wowhead and ports it into MediaWiki and the community rallies behind keeping that in date, but I know it's a bit of a pipe dream.

Unless they've moved backwards, that hasn't been doable for a very long time. The client in the past didn't have the information sent to it about things in fog of war. The closest was seeing a skill shot come across your screen and cheats gave an approximate location of where it was launched in fog of war.

I haven't kept up on the current state of cheats, but 10 years ago there were cheats that would automatically last hit minions (necessary to gain gold), automatically path towards your cursor while aiming and targeting your skills, move you out of the way of incoming abilities, all with inhuman reaction times.

There was a motto through the LoL cheating community of "Spacebar to Win", where spacebar was the keybind for unloading all your abilities and trying to kill the opponent. A player with good game knowledge and game sense would be easily able to climb to Challenger (the highest rank bracket).

There was a bot that played as a support champion and with a basic decision tree it reached Silver 2. Someone wrote a neural net algorithm for it instead and it reached Gold 4.

Just a note, Ethereum uses Proof of Stake now instead of Proof of Work, which is what drives the reduction in energy consumption.

Is there any framework/system that distributes the work across multiple GPUs on different computers over a network (LAN or WAN)? I'm not concerned much about latency or generation time, but would love to train or load up huge models and send jobs to run overnight.

IIRC from reading a few days ago it was worth ~$60 USD.

I'm a big proponent of having sanity checks that values are populated properly, because all it takes is some misalignment between the backend and frontend on the API definition to break some parameters (name mismatch, added in one not the other, etc.). When I work with latitude and longitude, I typically add a test location/customer/etc. at Null Island so that I (and QA) have a very easy time debugging this particular issue. It's come in handy a few separate times!

> The standard penalty for a violation is $5,000, which is a fraction of the value of the bonus space developers receive from the agreements. For example, the owners of 325 Fifth Avenue have been assessed a total of $54,000 in penalties since 2015. By contrast, the bonus floor area that the developers gained could be worth approximately $80 million if used for residential space, based on 2022 sales prices provided by Jonathan J. Miller, a New York City real estate appraiser.

When the penalty is this much lower than the benefit, it's just the cost of doing business. I wonder if this same problem would happen if the fine was scaled to better reflect the increase in value.

I recently installed Clone Hero, with my only PC Guitar Hero-like experience being Frets on Fire probably 15 years ago, and I was blown away by how it felt exactly like Guitar Hero.

FoF felt so clunky whereas Clone Hero is a delight. It handled high FPS well, the song interface looked exactly like Guitar Hero, and the customizability is the icing on top. The community has ported over basically every song from every Rock Band or Guitar Hero game, so there's more than enough content. Clone Hero was so smooth I bought a wireless receiver to use my old Rock Band drums and play with my wife. It's a blast!
