> Recent advances in biohybrid engineering have pushed this paradigm further, seamlessly integrating biotic materials into engineered systems.

This is the first I've heard of the field of "biohybrid engineering" and it sounds pretty cool. As a layman, it makes sense to leverage the micro-scale "manufacturing" capabilities biological systems seem to excel at over our more traditional(?) manufacturing processes.

I'm not sure I like the potentially perverse incentives introduced by using life as a substrate for producing manufacturing components, but then again I don't practice veganism so maybe I'm being hypocritical.

For an app called radius, it took longer than expected to find activities near me. Showed me a lot of info I wasn't interested in at all.

I believe that's exactly what it is

Cool game. Most everything worked which is nice. The fishing game was more fun than I expected. Took a while to understand the UI though.

I've heard it defined as the ability to learn quickly. Not just in the narrow, academic sense, but also by observing the world and people and drawing conclusions about them. It has to do with pattern recognition and abstraction.

Usually these people are knowledgeable because they are constantly learning. Eventually they become wise.

What do you think of that definition?

I think you misunderstood the article. 210 IQ isn't enough. The man with 210 IQ is happy not because he has 210 IQ but because he made the choice to be happy.

Having a high IQ isn't enough - you must also choose to be happy.

I appreciate what seems like an attempt to make a "smart camera" that gets out of the way of the player and unburdens them from having to control both a player and the perspective of the camera. That burden, of controlling two entities (player and camera) is large for people who are unused to playing video games.

Was this dynamic on your radar when building the game and camera system? Would love to hear your thoughts.

I would love to read some of this. Where do you find AI generated fiction?

In my opinion there is no such thing as too much dork time. This post is fun, just like cooking. The onion-inspired font for the section titles is fun. The interactive graphs are fun. Also vibe coding is fun.

What was the point of this judgmental comment?
