as long as it’s actually an in-person evaluation rather than an online form.

the annoying thing is that they are still market leaders in their field. it’s a big company.

poor moomin

yeah i’ve been on the other end too. but being forced to take a standardised test should feel humiliating to anyone over thirty.

the most frustrating thing was when they told me they made all their applicants go through the process, from janitors to sales to engineering to c-levels. apparently it made the company “statistically egalitarian”.

i have the physical release of lösningen, which is a fun little inverse mystery game based on “true speculations”.

i would have done the same. i went through the interview process for an engineering position a few years ago where they required an iq, reading comprehension, and basic arithmetic test. i felt so insulted by their apparent lack of trust in their applicants that i went off in the feedback field, whereupon they cold-called me to ask why i was so frustrated despite apparently being in the 95th percentile of all applicants. not something you want to tell someone applying to an engineering firm…

theoretically it can absolutely figure out how to do that without it being in the training data.

we know it’s in the training data because of google’s filters, but theoretically it could have been generated without having anything to draw on just due to how the thing works.

probably a finn

i think the food use is older, it’s been used at least since roman times.

i sent my canadian sibling a bag of turkisk peppar as part of a care package and they thought it was a prank. then when i visited i ate all of it myself. love me some salmiak

like jazz bars with 30 minutes of unskippable advertising

it’s mostly the interface, the layout, the clickbaityness the format encourages, and the fact that no useful information can fit in that short a video.

they’re ass because they’re inconsistent, have aliasing issues, are obviously stretched/squashed, are put against a noisy background, and in some cases are just wrong.

and no, if the name was not on it i would not assume that the ps4 was a ps4. it looks like a modem. and the 360 has a keyhole for some reason.

the graphics are ass, and the text is hard to read

maybe i do then because i just keep staring and thinking “how in the world did anyone sign off on this mess”. if it’s not ai, that makes it even worse.

for the asymmetry on the switch i was mostly referring to the silhouette. should havj clarified that.

ok so theyre just bad at it.

the proportions are off and the lines are crooked. there’s also the typical latent noise on places like the controller buttons.

the buttons on the switch and ps2, the asymmetry of the ps1 and switch, the logo on the ps4, and the lack of pixellation and strange proportions of the 360 and ps3. also the fact that only some of them have controllers depicted.
