Control is a must. One of my all time favorites.

I think part of this is data science terms being slightly different than terms we've used in the industry to date... so in some cases they're really the same things just with a different name. e.g. AI memory is really persistent context data - aka what you'd store in a central database in a workflow

Yeah agreed - a lot of this is classic task-based orchestration and processing. It just so happens that the steps are determined by AI (in some cases at least), and certain sub-tasks are AI powered... though that's not even an absolute.

Interesting yeah - I am playing on PC and am now through that and in Iraq. I am missing one relic that I can't seem to find and isn't showing up on the map of all of them in Sukhothai tho.

Oh man! What was it? Something to avoid?

I had a save game issue where it said it was corrupted, but a restart fixed it. You can also apparently go to the main menu and when you select a slot there's an option down at the bottom to pick a previous save in the event your latest really is busted.

Yeah the guy they got to voice Indy is amazing and somehow they even got Harrison’s movements and facial expressions down. Amazing work.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is the Indy movie we all wanted that just happens to be in a video game.

I've got to hand it to the OpenCore Legacy Patcher folks - really really well done. Even catches OS updates and preps for them. Remarkably smooth experience with it so far in reviving my 2015 MBP.

Drones over New Jersey just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Yeah, there is an XLT, but there seemed to generally be a lot of people even beyond that. Would be great to meet in person!

Spent a week back at the Microsoft mothership - it's been years since I've been able to be out here. There are folks I haven't met since the "before times" and some that I've never met in person despite working for with them years. Been a great week.

Was a nice thanksgiving dinner. It's been a brutal year - so thankful my family and I are still alive and kickin.

I always found the whole mix of the 1979 Stalker movie, Roadside Picnic, and Chernobyl as the catalyst compelling. Fallout was always a top pick for that vibe, but right now not playing something that is compelling without being tied to WW3 is more my style.

Taking a few days off and disconnecting is hard - so I've been playing Stalker 2. The story of how a Ukranian developer even managed to get it out the door is inspiring. Enjoying it so far - definitely worth a look.

I ended up taking the plunge and it's been working great. I was worried it would be laggy or something... but it's not at all.

I ended up using dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Leg... to upgrade my 2015 MBP and Sequoia works great. So - yeah, it is 100% planned obsolescence. Totally sucks.

Have folks been having good experiences with OpenCore Patcher for macOS? I have '15 MBP that's been perfect for couch reading that's not wired into work data management and flipped it to Ubuntu, but some update made the video drivers stop working so I'm thinking of using it to get an up-to-date mac.

I am trying to think of a good conspiracy theory we can spread to help. Like don’t come here because we are in the Matrix on flat earth and everyone here is a human battery.

Ok nobody tell the trolls we are all leaving behind about this or Threads. I miss the old before times Twitter - they will show up eventually but everyone pretend like they’re not real.
