I’ve played since the release date thru now with gaps of time not playing... from my experience it’s unequivocally clear that the skill level is much much higher than when the game first came out. Like not even close.

It would be bronze. The built in AI is much worse than you think.

For iCloud Drive, we should be able to manage which files are saved locally and which aren’t. As is, documents can be manually downloaded but there’s no way to reverse it and have the given documents stored back only in the cloud (freeing up local storage). Then magically a week or more later stuff is uploaded and no longer stored locally. It feels fickle and frustrating.

Things human value (exploration, science) aren’t necessarily things other species would value. We tend to destroy the planet in our pursuits, so I’m not as confident as you are in our own species’ intellectual superiority.

Many species have better memories than humans, including most monkey/ape species. We have exceptional dexterity while dolphins don’t, so is it a fair fight to judge intelligence by putting a telescope into orbit? Do dolphins have as high a rate of depression in their species as humans? Do they have as many wars as us? Again, are we really that much more intelligent than these other species? Measuring intelligence is hard because we don’t have a rigorous definition.

Which is?

Trump was the checkmate

I am extremely familiar with both tests. What version of the SAT are you referring? The current version (re-designed a few years ago) is nearly identical to the ACT with the exception of integrating graph-reading questions into the reading and writing sections rather than having their own section.

Do you recall when you took the test? I’d like to find the test because I work with ACT tests daily and have never seen a passage where the laws of physics were intentionally violated for sake of “comprehension.”

Additionally the ACT reading passages are very focused, not vague. They may be uninteresting but much of a student’s college experience is reading uninteresting things. The ACT is designed to predict how students will perform in college, not how “smart” they are or how “good of a reader” they are.

In the article, the writers says pilots and witnesses have come to him in frustration with the lack of investigation into what they’ve seen. So that makes the obvious explanation you suggest not as likely.

It’s damn effective, harder to believe pain is felt by most (all?) animals than that it isn’t. The default assumption should be that they feel pain, not that they don’t.

Reminds me of my mormon days: if things turn out well, it was because of God/righteousnsss. When things turned out bad, it was because of the devil.

100% postdictive. 0% predictive.

What app did you use? I want to try this also.

What are their other options besides Starcraft2? This doesn’t seem like a PR stunt (not that the PR isn’t a bonus), but there’s already a history of AI competitions for Brood War, the game is more balanced than arguably any other RTS, and even though it is “primitive” as a strategy game in your estimation, AI isn’t ready to tackle a more advanced strategy game.

He said pros are “not easily” thrown off by novel strategies, not that they are “never” thrown off by such, so your examples are the exceptions that prove the rule.

FWIW I think you also drastically underestimate how many things the AI has to take into account. It isn’t just how many 2-2 zerglings you need to destroy a cannon, it’s making educated guesses of what you’re opponent is doing while you’re attacking the cannons, or how the terrain affects how you can attack, or what units the opponent may have be in the fog of war ready to ambush. Represting all these factors, let alone calculating them, is no trivial task.

I have a theory that facts don’t matter

This happened to me in the Bay Area (Walnut Creek) about three months ago. I thought it was an isolated event. Fuck them.

Minimize your personal fabricated narrative by abiding by a 2,000 year old fabricated narrative. Checks out.

How are you so sure what a bird’s brain is capable of? And fwiw trees and plants do have chemical means of communication.

This was my Uber driver from yesterday in SF

Isn't the surface frozen?

I'm ready but don't know where to purchase that I can trust. A message from you with some direction would be greatly appreciated.

Your friends sound like assholes

You also might be remembering your skills inaccurately. In jr high and high school I also got top grades easily and rarely studied. In college I finally had to. I wondered where my ease of learning had gone, but eventually realized the most likely explanation was that the material had simply been much easier/more intuitive and that I was tricking myself with selection bias.

1 1/2 years? Uh since day 1 of swift at least. Granted it was beta then but you couldn't go 45 seconds without losing syntax highlighting.

If they confirm ancient warriors battled while riding tapirs and chariots then back to church for me.

Not just swift, specifically Swift 3.0 since it will stay stable. Some libraries haven't caught up but worst case you spend three hours manually updating lines the converter couldn't figure out.

Part of the goal is to show the church is fundamentally a business.

As an exmo, I agree and for the most part I haven't been shunned. Several people unfriended me on Facebook but that was the worst of it for me. Others aren't always so fortunate, but with how many exmo's there are now it has made the transition a lot easier.

You must not have heard that corporations are individuals who pulled themselves up by their own bootstraps with only hard work and the power of the American Dream(tm).

Well that's tragic /s
