I agree that this is extremely simplified, however your radio example implies physicists only do physics for money and nobody would have explored the applications of radio waves without a profit motive which seems at odds with... Well, literally every scientist I've ever met.

You don't think people would volunteer to maintain sewers or collect garbage if the alternative was shit/trash everywhere?

To me it just looks like an easy way to do your community a service.

I've worked on unionizing businesses with multiple locations and the big issue is communication. Locations rarely have overlapping staff below the management level and chatting with coworkers, having rapport with them is key to building faith in any sort of collective action.

That said, Starbucks Workers United (mentioned in the article briefly) may be able to pull something off with a more regional scope, but AFAIK they focus on shops that are already working on unionizing rather than cold calling locations.

The DNC made clear today that all Democrats, including millions who are AIPAC members, have the right to participate fully in the Democratic process, and we plan to do just that," AIPAC spokesperson Deryn Sousa told ABC News.

All those AIPAC members can fuck off, their money is going toward perpetuating war and genocide.

Citizens United, and PACs in general, have done nothing but make this country's politics more and more toxic and here the DNC couldn't even pass a symbolic resolution against one of the worst of them.

I read the post, but as I mentioned elsewhere, how are devs (or malicious commercial thieves looking for public domain code) supposed to detect this code is an LLM creation when all of the obvious signs they mention are stripped?

A ban on people using an LLM in secret is unenforceable and the code output can be indistinguishable from a human's, especially when a real human that understands the change is there to baby it and write commit messages etc.

Fuck you, Ellison and Paramount. I'd rather watch the franchise die than turn into fanfic for fascists anyway.

How are the devs or anyone else supposed to tell that though, if all the LLM trappings are absent?

That seems pretty good to me? I hate LLMs, but this policy is basically "if it's obviously LLM garbage or you don't understand it, it will be rejected" and I'm not sure it's practical to do better.

People will use LLMs behind the scenes, but if they are able to write a coherent justification with clear understanding of the code, receive feedback from devs and rework it, as well as submitting code that is well structured etc. it's not really any different than any other PR.

No, that women will dress provocatively and then shame people that actually look at them.

Also been enjoying Pokopia and have totally fallen prey to the "I'll just wander around and rebuild stuff" play style, completely ignoring the story until I feel like I have to get to the next zone.

10/10 would wander aimlessly spamming blocks with Pokemon friends in tow anytime. I can't express how happy I am to have something to do other than beat the shit out of cute animals to capture them.

I really don't have any problem with any of these types of achievements in general. Even the super basic ones that you get by starting a game are useful to determine what percentage of people who own the game have actually played it beyond the menu screen.

The best achievements are ones you get for being clever, skilled, or dedicated. Or when it's an unhidden achievement for something you didn't even know was possible. Like the BG3 achievement for saving the goblin Sazza - just seeing it was possible made my next play through more interesting.

I do appreciate long ending achievements, but only if they indicate a significantly different playthrough. Good ending vs. bad ending works when that's the result of many decisions and not just an option you chose ten minutes from the end.

Eh, it makes sense for Steam share, this data is entirely gaming users. It would be a mistake to try to relate this to overall market share though.
