this one is pretty timely as blizzard very visibly bodged remaking warcraft 3 in ways pretty directly called out in your video. arstechnica runs it down pretty well https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2020/01/warcraft-iii-reforged-not-the-flavor-of-chaos-we-were-hoping-for/. specifically they keep most of it the same, but add global illumination, a bunch of environment shaders, and more detailed meshes. however, applied to the originals handcrafted high-contrast colorful cartoony style it ends up looking incredibly flat and nondistinct. they also messed up all kinds of other things, but it did immediately bring the video to mind on the impact hand-picking/-grading color can have. e: actually embed Cybernetic Vermin fucked around with this message at 20:42 on Feb 1, 2020 |

mystes posted:You're mad that people are using subtitles? Or that movies are mixed in a way that makes them necessary? Or just by the style of the video? for me the annoying bit is the concept of "naturalistic acting", an established idea where actors are reading lines as stilted as anything in a greek comedy, but they do it in a way which they wouldn't *actually* if trying to speak to another human being. like, people by and large don't habitually mumble or whisper or say everything with a growl. especially not outside, with anyone you don't know, or on the telephone. actual realism would be real bad as well, sure actors would then talk in way more neutral ways aiming to be heard, but instead everything would be agrammatical, take twice as long to say, and of course 90% of the dialog would be irrelevant to the story being told. which is where realism being dumb comes in, just as well to have actors project.

the argument is in there: assume we have a faster-growing computable function f. by definition of "computable" this means that there exists some turing machine T which implements f, i.e. the machine T started with x zeroes on the tape it'll halt with f(x) 1's on the tape (we can pick these details of its implementation freely, it is easy enough to reencode things as needed). let n be the number of states in the (arbitrarily chosen) smallest such turing machine T. but then as bb(n) simulates all turing machine with n states T will be among them, bb picking the one that outputs the largest value, which means in the end we must have bb(n)>=f(n), and as you can trivially construct a n+1 state turing machine that implements f from the one with n states (just add them without having them do anything) we have bb(x)>=f(x) for all x>=n. note to be clear that the busy beaver function (which is a cool and good name) is not itself computable, as you can never know whether the highest result you've seen out of a turing machine so far is the actual busy beaver and the rest are just spinning infinitely, or whether in a moment another will halt with a larger value.

# ¿ Aug 23, 2023 13:35 |

actually, shorter and better: what the busy beaver *does* is run all computable functions (represented by turing machines) and takes a max of the result, so it will necessarily grow at least as fast as any particular one you pick.

i think most youtubers that get to a point where they are sustainable in decent comfort (specifically off of the content, when we get to patreon and such things get real murky) are also pretty likely to pick up skills and connections that'll see them through e.g. google deciding to fully gently caress up youtube. the most straightforward would be finding a decent job doing media/content/ads for some established company, and i think going "here's my 300k subscriber youtube channel" would instantly make you a top-tier candidate.

one feature of rice cookers that's not important for everyone but i really like is that the keep-warm will keep the rice both still nice and importantly food-safe for a ridiculous amount of time. however, that at least is a feature you should only use with a reasonably high-quality one, as you *really* want to trust it to be correct on temperatures etc. if you're going to keep the rice warm for an extended period.

yeah, i think the induction models (made in japan at that) are the top of the line, with every feature of the micom-labeled ones. i was a bit too cheap to go quite that far. should have bought a larger one really, i keep making its max volume to make sure i have left-overs for fried rice etc.

i think there's a bunch of little explanations (e.g. he comments at some point that he just grabbed whatever he could find around the house for the first video, and there's a bunch detailing a weird fictional backstory) but there's none that quite explains the core "so how did he get to be like that" i rather love it all, both as a weird artistic statement (and you get to make those if you make good enough videos) and because it is just dumb enough to be funny.

eeh, disagree. if hitting-some-metric-success was the aim and he could focus on that i honestly think the guy would do way better than he is (and he was on *pathetic* subscription numbers a couple of years back, went on some other channels without makeup and got a bit of a bump). i think he just likes the weirdness. this being the thread, not being a great public speaker myself i draw a lot of inspiration from his blendercon talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qSTcxt2t74 it is not that he is a natural at the form, but loving hell it is an inspiration for putting what effort you can in (and he is above and beyond on effort).
