Nintendo on their way to file a DMCA C&D letter.

Haha! Oh, man!

It's definitely a skill, but not one I would expect to see on a resumé. I do mention it in interviews, that I don't know everything, but I can find out. Then they ask how, and I say that I know how to use search engines. But I akin it to "keyboarding". It is a skill, but it's something you're expected to know by now and shouldn't be added to a resumé.

This is worse than some of the resumés I've seen, with "proficient with Google search" [or "google" as a soft skill].

That's fair. I do make a distinction between understanding how something works and why something works. Making it work the way you describe, to me at least, is understanding enough of how it works to be able to reproduce it, even if we don't yet understand why it works. Until we understand this science, it's magic.

It did say "subjective negative reviews". I would take that to mean that strictly objective negative reviews are perfectly acceptable.

If you're looking for interesting more than useful, may I present TempleOS.

That name would be a major ~~pain~~ Payne

It sure will! Before they thought they wouldn't get in trouble. Now they know they wouldn't.

Came to say this same thing.

Also, ticks have 8 legs, not 6 as is shown in the picture (but that's just nitpicking).

But wouldn't understanding the structure assist is rebuilding a mechanical version and, thus, recreating the consciousness into an artificial mechanism (such as a Terminator-esque android)?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (4 children)

Very interesting! Maybe once we understand the structure, we can recreate what's behind the structure. Not sure if that's a good thing, but it certainly is intriguing.

I'm familiar with some of those, but they don't digitally map thought and then read that map. At least not the last time I looked into them... Do they now?
