  • The voice actor behind "PEGI 18" says he was paid just €200

    Jump

  • I'd be interested what people think he should be paid. Based on the downvotes on your comment, people say 200€ is too low? It was in 2009, so inflation adjusted it's 300€. And the article has the complete raw recording, it took him less than a minute.

  • There is no snapping, but the geneva drive will stay locked in position when it is not moving. The thing that I haven't figured out is how to get the 3 to go back to 0 after 23:59, it needs to skip the numbers 4 to 9.

  • I'm testing a geneva drive (you can see it in the front in the photo), that should allow me to reduce the number of motors even further. I think I can get it down to two, maybe even one.

  • was für Nebenleistungen habt ihr am Arbeitsplatz?

    Jump

  • Wow, bei uns gibt's das alles kostenlos. Ich kann mir nicht vorstellen wie eine Firma den eigenen Mitarbeitern Geld für den Kaffee abnimmt.

  • “Wherever you get your podcasts” is a radical statement

    Jump

  • I like using AntennaPod for podcasts and Spotify for music.

  • Article suggests that 1 million ML specialists will be needed in 2027. What do you think of that?

    Jump

  • Yeah, 3D printers are everywhere. Both as a business and as a hobby, it's bigger than it has ever been.

  • It's not a different discipline, an LLM is an example of a machine learning model.

  • Am I the only software engineer greatly worried and disturbed by AI ?

    Jump

  • Nobody knows if and when programming will be automated in a meaningful way. But once we have the tech to do it, we can automate pretty much all work. So I think this will not be a problem for programmers until it's a problem for everyone.

  • Thank you for writing the explanation! I still think that this doesn't need a blockchain. Instances could broadcast user creation, so each instance could validate user age on its own (or ask other trusted instances when they first "saw" that user).

    Fundamentally, blockchain solves the problem that there is no central source of trust, but in the Fediverse people necesarily trust the instance that they sign up, so a blockchain can't add much in my opinion.

  • I see. I'm not convinced that proving the account creation date makes much of a difference here. Obviously the instance records when you sign up, so you would only need this to protect against malicious instances. But if a spammer is manipulating their instance to allow them to spam more, you have a much bigger problem than reliably knowing their account creation date.

  • this account holder has this name on that instance

    How would that help? A spam bot could just make lots of blockchain wallets.

    you get all sorts of unspoofable benefits from that

    what are the benefits? I struggle to come up with any benefits.

  • Mobile game devs, is the animation deciding the results, or is the previously calculated result dictating the animation?

    Jump

  • If the animations look realistic, it’s almost certainly not predetermined

    You could do a perfectly realistic simulation, record the path for each outcome and then play one of them.

    Or, if the physics simulation is deterministic, you could store a set of starting positions and their outcomes.

  • Reddit Advised to Target at Least $5 Billion Valuation in IPO

    Jump

  • I think it's reasonable to not short stocks. I just find it a bit weird to see people confidently proclaim that a company is overvalued, but than not shorting the stock, which would be the rational thing to do.

  • Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI?

    Jump

  • I'm not an expert on Monte Carlo methods, but reading the Wikipedia article on Markov Chain Monte Carlo, this doesn't fit what WFC does for the reasons I mentioned above. In MCMC, your get a better result by taking more steps, in WFC, the number of steps is given by the map size, it can't be changed.

  • Reddit Advised to Target at Least $5 Billion Valuation in IPO

    Jump

  • It's hard to tell how much a platform is worth, arguably the value of Twitter was 44B, since someone was willing to pay that.

    The good news is, if you're really certain that Reddit is overvalued, you'll soon be able to short it and get rich if you end up being right!
