I’m a big fan of thigh scrotes and right calf figs myself.

And even if we could provide the training algorithm a perfectly diverse dataset, who gets to decide what that means? You could probably poll a million anthropologists from across the world and observe trends, but no certain consensus. What if polling anthropologists in underdeveloped nations skews in a different direction than what we consider rich countries? How about if a country was a colonizer in the past or has participated in a violent revolution?

How do we decide who qualifies as an anthropologist? Is a doctorate required, or is a college degree with numerous publications sufficient?

I don’t think we’ll ever see a perfectly neutral solution to this problem. At best, we can come equipped with knowledge that these tools may come with some biases, like when you analyze texts from the past. You make the best with what you have and strive to improve

In the same vein that FPS games use WASD movement with mouse aiming instead of arrow keys or… other early control schemes, sure.

We’ve moved on to more ergonomic controls with custom keybinds for those who prefer something different. We get no choice with Katamari.

If we collectively decide that developers know best and that no changes to controls are reasonable or desired, then I’ll happily withdraw my request for an accessible Katamari game.

The users (specifically me) are just playing it wrong I guess.

Hard disagree on this. The controls could be 1000% improved.

I know, because I’ve purchased the same 3 or so Katamari games each time they’re rereleased and am moderately disappointed each time that they control like blind elephants.

I agree. Consumer use cases of SSDs sees a tremendous benefit if only for accidental damage reasons, but for enterprise data center use I would not have expected the same overall rates of failure.

I’m a big fan of creating thousands of folders with machine generated names to house my 27,000 Java files with, you guess it, more machine generated names.

I was prepared to roll my eyes after their introduction which was pure conjecture, but they they started pushing data. Individually these strange practices aren’t conclusive evidence for malware, but combined it’s hard to see any legitimate use for this kind of design for a company acting in good faith.

Back blaze is one of the OG “cheap cloud” storage providers.

They buy cheap stuff and develop cheap storage networks to charge cheap prices and stay in business. They publish entire papers on running cheap storage if you’re interested. It’s actually pretty interesting stuff.

They raised prices 20% (or $1). Hardware costs **may have gone down that much, but I’m willing to bet their energy and rent prices haven’t. They’re subject to services inflation just as much as anybody else.

Frozen pizza prices in my area have increased more in the last year than their services.

Eh kills aleins and doesnt afraid of anything
