It’s also likely that having grown up surrounded by journalists and people working for newspapers, his education allows him to properly write articles as a freshman. That doesn’t prevent him for learning computer science if that’s what he likes doing.

To be fair to Jung, most of what he wrote is barely coherent garbage with zero experimental backing and an attitude towards intellectual honesty and scientific integrity which I would politely qualify as problematic. Sorry, I think it had to be said.

It’s an init system and a process manager. How exactly can it be fun?

Technically, I guess it’s interesting to design if you are an expert but as a user, having to use creativity is the last thing I want from low level pieces of my OS. If you want to tinker with OS design, you can always install Minix in a VM.

Probably the first Spelunky but Slay the Spire, A Short Hike and Disco Elysium are close. Honorable mention to both 80 days, Stardew Valley and The Witcher 3.

> the original but better

Better story but less interesting and easier combats. I know of at least one person who loved the first mostly for the gameplay and got bored very quickly with the second. Both incredible games anyway.

I have only played Forbidden West and it’s the most mediocre experience I had with a video game in the past decade. The gameplay felt clunky with weird spikes of difficulty in the middle of otherwise fairly boring segments. The main plot was utter trash and the other quests completely uninteresting. If that’s the standard of good AAA games, I never want to play another one.

Do they? Considering how much was at stack in term of PR when OpenAI released ChatGPT, I would be surprised that Google didn’t put out the best they could.

> maybe as an intermediate step we could make available all the recordings to the peer reviewers

The issue is clearly not the amount of data available to peer reviewers considering it's already easy to detect major flaws in a quarter of published peer reviewed research. The issue is that peer reviewers do a shoddy job which should surprise no one having ever published peer reviewed research.

And to be fair why should they do better? It's generally unpaid, it's poorly paid when it is paid and it's not particularly well considered.

Please read the article before commenting. The problem is not how hard it is to run clinical trial. It's that made up data is an endemic problem. It doesn't matter if clinical trials are hard or easy to organise when up to a quarter don't actually bother and just forge their results.

I don’t need to assume anything. Gwern isn’t an anonymous poster. His bio is in his profile and he is indeed American.

First results are in by the way. Second highest results for the opening weekend of a Ghibli movie. I think they will survive the lack of marketing.

> but there's also an extraordinarily low level of discussion. I was shocked when I clicked on the first review and realized it was a review - "oh, huh, when did it come out?"

You are commenting on an article in the Verge for a movie which has only been released in Japan and won’t be out in the USA for months. This article is one of many in most western publications. A lot can be said about this movie but having a low level of discussion is definitely not one of them.

What’s the point of a marketing campaign when you have so much organic reach?
