I didn’t shove it that deep. I just tried to clean just inside my ear, which was enough to shove some ear wax further up my ear and clog it. I now know (and frequently lecture my wife) that qtips should only be used on the outside of the ear.
I inadvertently clogged one of my ears with a Qtip, effectively making me deaf in that ear. I tried to wait it out, but I eventually started to get a headache. Went to the clinic, and they flushed my ear out. I don’t use Qtips anymore.
Yeah, I will not pretend that I did not have fun with it. However, by the end of it I had not desire for more of it. As a result, I haven’t played any of the sequels.
I find it kind of funny that Spider-Man is held up as some sort of golden standard to adhere to in all of this. Spider-Man is also very average game imo. The gameplay is not very compelling, and it’s no surprise that Insomniac’s approach would overstay its welcome after a couple of games. Doubly so when you move from Spider-Man, a character with a more diverse moveset and inherent better traversal abilities, to Wolverine.
Bright white gravy is probably garbage from a packet. A gravy made with quality, flavorful sausage will always add a bit of color.
I always thought it was because they essentially pioneered the “rock music for commercials” genre
I honestly think trying to define programming as art is just an attempt to unnecessarily elevate it. Programming is utilitarian. It is meant for a specific practical purpose. It does not reveal a shared human experience the way a movie, book, or game does. I have no need to convince myself, a professional software engineer of this because I am perfectly happy accepting that what I do is useful and do not need to try to put myself in a category with artists.
All the author is saying is that people enjoy programming. I also enjoy eating. Is that an art? I even have my own “eating style” in that I like to eat food in specific order, combine two items into one bite, the way I build a bite, etc. But I’d never try to elevate it because I’m a normal person who doesn’t waste brainpower trying to make myself feel special.
I would not enter AI/ML for one simple reason: it is oversaturated. Everyone and their brother is in tgis field, and even those outside of it still study it and us it. Unfortunately the way to stand out within AI/ML field is to have a very good mathematics/statistics foundation and really understand the theory behind it. You would be better served by getting skills in another field that AI/ML relies on or where AI/ML can be applier.
BTW, you should also state what you plan on doing with your degree. There is no point in getting a degree if there isn’t a concrete benefit to doing so.
I have put on that much muscle. I just refuse to buy any kool-aid that’s being sold to me. Maybe they should bring proof instead of spreading trends blindly?
Gym bros misquote this as a gram per pound, which is just a ridiculous amount of protein.

Evil Dead is not a slasher.
Air Bud is a dog movie on the surface, but has a surpisingly well done underlying story of a boy struggling with the loss of his father.
Did you hear about updoc?
That is abnormal imo. Americans do not generally like “squishy” or “slimy” textures, which eggplant tends to have even when cooked properly. I’ve always thought of eggplants as being more popular among East Asians.

I actually finished this recently, and to me, the old abilities were almost completely irrelevant. There are legitimately times where you might think that wonderwing is the solution to something, but arbitrarily is programmed to not work.
I still really like BT, and even prefer it over the first in some aspecta. However, it is a perfect example of how powerups were implemented poorly back then (and even today). Instead of powerups enhancing the core gameplay loop, they are just keys to solve shallow puzzles. “Oh, there’s a crack in the wall? Shoot it with a grenade egg.” This is why Mario games have much more emphasis on evolving gameplay through level design rather than character abilities.

I think the entire field of AI (not just the generative AI subset) should’ve been called “simulated intelligence” or something like that. It points to the goal of the field (i.e. to achieve something similar to intelligence) without the implicit claim that any of the contributions achieve true intelligence.
