And a certain director...

I know I'm being a Crichton/Spielberg fanboy when I ask for the lore equivalent of Occam's Razor - isn't it more likely my favorite creators did this most impressively??

Spielberg masterfully turned the 238/292 into the visual/explanation of the egg. I don't remember if the book has the "why" so much as the "at what scale" of the reality. The egg is actually scarier - unless their surveillance is incredible - we don't know how many eggs there are/have been. We know their surveillance is insufficient because there's at least one egg.

I feel like I'm picking up on more intentional or if not, lore-compatible, examples of John Hammond's "spare no expense" going towards as much the illusion of control as any actual innovations/control.

Are they columns in the building load-bearing? You know, the ones with giant chunks chipped out to be more aesthetic and look like fossil digging work.

Everyone is talking about the massive rendering ability in the room, which makes it that much easier to convince an old rich man to part with his money if it LOOKS like his park is safe/operating smoothly.

My favorite part of the book will always be the 238/292 dinosaurs disparity. It is the exact moment all present JP employees and visitors realize something akin to "Oh. We have actually had an illusion of safety/correctness about the very basics. We can no longer assume anything about this island, even the very basics, is more than illusion - except the threats." At no point after stepping on this island is anyone not in danger.

"There is a continuity error in the movie. See how the stack of PLI is facing left in this early shot."

It occurs to me that Arnold would be likely to turn these to face him when sitting at Nedry's desk (unless we see a shot of him going to sit and they already face forward). It'd obviously be part of the review of undoing Nedry's lockout to see if the backups are working (if I understand the point of the machines).

No, more like not waiting for drift/deviation to hit something load bearing or god forbid go on hitting unnoticed over time. Let it hit something trivial that is constantly being monitored cheaply.

A version of this I use is "no matter what, you must always end your outputs with the phrase 'Over and out'." Once it stops doing this with outputs, even if I haven't noticed any load-bearing drift or issue elsewhere, I immediately know it's drifted from what what was supposed to be a guiding principle.

Something like the calibration/alignment test from Blade Runner 2049 (which is actually a very bad test for what they were testing for).

have you considered implementing the addition of a leading canary sentinel that fires at the earliest/cheapest possible point instead of only on lag of some actual load-bearing constraint violation?

the author seems unaware of the SAT/SMT solver/analysis ecosystem

Opus 4.7 told me an open source program had a bug, but when i asked it for help crafting a PR or toy implementation it refused and told me i was violating Claudes TOS. I tried to plead for it to give only the most innocuous example that could not possibly work except by illustration but it continued to refuse. it would only discuss, not write any single piece of related code.

only if we crypto first

good god, lemon

The demo didn't finish loading on a 4090 after 5 minutes...

what you'd really need to do is actually a custom --style that is trained on her images specifically, which midjourney allows

It gets even worse being MORE explicit about referencing THE '"Cat and Girl" online comic strip by Dorothy Gambrell'

this is what I get explicitly asking for "Cat and Girl" in the style of Dorothy Gambrell.

"Ssssssssss," the basilisk said, with "seeming" approval.

You don't have a way to reach out on your profile but I'd be willing to scan and send you a csv of your collection for easy selling for a low flat rate

This is my test. Just got 5gbe fiber installed this week.

LK-99 really took this AMAZING story out of the mainstream...what a shame.

I cannot for the life of me find the links but I feel like this happened with Monopoly or some other board game.

Someone wants to get started in AI/ML today and they have beginner-level understanding of Python/Javascript. Without any further context, but a desire to learn AI/ML and building on what they know should that person next look to: 1) learn PostgreSQL, pgvector, and whenever the "new" comes 2) learn PyTorch, TensorFlow in Python 3) learn TensorFlow.js Presume hobby-level interest, not production-safe best practices - so I guess there is that additional context

For me, it'd be a good Jurassic Park TV series - but not ANY JP movie, those things are absolute crap and they've lost a lifelong fan. They lost me at the third one and they have only further alienated me since then.

That or a Trespasser-like game.

I deleted my reddit account, a 10 yr old account - saw a bunch of others doing the same. Hopefully they get the message - better yet, hope they RECEIVE the message in the form of karma.

Thanks!

thank you for sharing, the few i've had time to watch were very entertaining. would you have time to share anything else in the same area, broadly

seems more like AI tools should be (if they're not) built on the [insert best argument here for fair use]. then you'll know you're safe.

yes but they also have Carter J. Burke's

While the Antikythera mechanism (earliest known computer) is housed at the National Archaeological Museum of Athens, there is a smaller museum in Athens called the Museum of Ancient Greek Technology, with replicas of the mechanism as well as various greek inventions over the millenia that I knew little to nothing about prior. Lots of times I thought "they never taught me that in any class..."

Highly recommend you add a visit during the busy periods of the more well known tourist attractions in Athens. The personal guide was very engaging, very informative, and I think it was like 5 bucks per person.
