It can help fill in with weaknesses that slow developers down.

No no no no…

You don’t want AI replacing devs where they’re “weak”. That is literally the worst thing you can do with AI. All that does is mean the devs aren’t qualified to assess and debug those portions of code. The solution to devs being “weak” in an area is for them to gain experience doing that task.

Some programmers use AI to make boilerplate code they can easily check to save time without much issue. That’s about the only thing you can use AI for in software development with little risk without taking up excessive time checking/fixing what it shits out.

“Painful” could easily (and mostly likely) refer to extremely low profit margins that would take several years to pay off the development costs. And that quote specifically refers to the base 64GB version. The price difference between that and the 256GB version was way more than the increase in storage costs, despite that being the only difference.

Also, I absolutely knew you were going to reply with this quote despite it not being evidence. Congrats on being extremely predictable.

Calm down, Pol Pot

I though that was Shia Lebouf

They were definitely selling at a huge loss with the original prices

No they weren’t. There is literally 0 proof of that. Quit spreading misinformation

Good thing there’s Chinese manufacturers that started that years ago and are just now starting to push more ram into the market

First game was hot garbage. I don’t get how CDPR managed to stay solvent long enough to make a second game, let alone a third. The stance system was horribly though out.

Then the 3rd game’s logic for whether you get the good/bad/neutral ending was also terrible, and the main split happens 20 hours before then end of the game. Not only that, to get the good ending you have to completely skip multiple scenes. Completely stupid, and ruins the entire game.

The way I see it, CDPR owes me at least one full priced game with how much of my time and money they wasted on this bullshit. They don’t get a dime from me until that balance is cleared, and I include GOG in that boycott.

Making a reply this confrontational is probably doing more harm than good. Cookie-cutter replies don’t help, you need to actually tailor the response to people’s needs.

Also, sometimes parents are completely terrible people. I have a grandmother that only sees people as things to manipulate. She doesn’t care about her kids apart from how they affect her image, because she’s a Trump-level narcissist. Making claims that could easily be wrong also hurts your case

I’ll have to try that

I think they may have meant that you don’t get to decide on how other victims of depression feel about suicide. Nobody else shares your life, experiences, and values so iyou shouldn’t assert what they should do with their lives.

If that’s the case they were trying to make, then they didn’t do the best job explaining themselves. Or I could have completely misunderstood their comment

Unfortunately, this take often reads like conservative pundits that only “care” about fetuses until they’re born, at which point they’re considered a drain on society.

A lot of the quotes people repeat when trying to help someone ends up backfiring. You can’t just repeat plattitudes. People suffering from mental illness aren’t stupid or deaf, they’ve already heard the lines before. Mimicry doesn’t help.

The only generalized thing I can recommend people to say when trying to help someone with mental issues is to just ask: “What do you need?”. If they need space, give it. If they need to talk, listen. If they need something else, be honest about whether that’s in your ability to help with.

Another important thing to note is to not view them as something that needs to be fixed. And you need to be very honest with yourself about that. Most people will try to “help” because it makes them feel better, not the person they’re trying to help.

I think it’s survivorship bias. People with functional relationships with their parents (myself included) probably don’t feel much need to weigh in.

People’s families are complicated, and sometimes they need to vent. I (generally) don’t see a problem with giving them space to do so.

It made some rounds on Lemmy 2-3 days ago

Because it sucks. Deal with it

Ew, no. They already screwed me over with the trilogy. They don’t get any more money from me

I agree that this isn’t the death of home computing. There’s Chinese companies that are just getting ready to mass produce ram. Between that and the AI bubble popping prices will eventually go back down

Reading the rest of this article, it’s crap journalism. About half of it is just rumors and speculation off of social media. Do better, BBC

You could always replace the battery. There’s guides and parts on iFixIt

The games developed on oscilloscope (also the first games) would beg to differ

Do it.
