IIRC we’ll be upgrading from 11 to 2x something in our project in the near-ish future. We are using spring / axon and (IIRC) there was some EOL coming up or at least some newer versions required newer Java. I might be wrong though, haven’t been in these discussions myself.
Since we are going with anecdotes and gut feelings, I’d say these things aren’t related at all. I can imagine pictures, sounds and also have always been good at abstract thinking. Also chess and tetris are a matter of practice mostly, imo.
Imo the internal monologue is often about summarizing or sorting out something, while I’ve already figured it out non-verbally. Like a verbal confirmation. Though sometimes the internal monologue is about processing something and figuring stuff out.

Indeed. And my non-expert assertion was that our brain doesn't compartmentalise between communication and thought processing. Our thoughts are getting shaped even as we are verbalising something. IMO it's a continuous stream of chatter of jumbled up things a part of which gets used to create/shape our thoughts.
Agreed. I used to think (haha) that I was thinking the thoughts I as thought them verbally, but as of late, I've come to realise that I've already had the thought as a sort of a series of perceptual flashes or traces, and when I think I'm thinking, I'm merely verbalising what I've already internally "perceived".
Why does it make no sense? A lot of the social and mental frameworks that were available for previous generations have disappeared or are on the way out. Why would this not have an effect?
It’s pretty jarring to see quite often remarks that developing with ”Gen AI” is a must and a game changer and whatnot.
Usually when I have a SW problem gpt4 can’t help me. Sometimes it can speed up something marginally, but almost never no remarkable gains and sometimes it’s a net negative trying to find help from it without ever succeeding.
As you said, I guess it depends on what kind of work needs to be done - I’m sure the 20 yo students can solve their OOP homework well with LLMs.
Boohoo. I’m happy any time people show some spine and principles, instead of sucking up to companies and brands. We should do it more, not less. Review bombing is a great start.
As a Steam customer, I appreciate it when others review bomb games that do that kind of thing. It is a huge red flag that I want to know about when buying them.
As someone who wants to play games, it's frustrating navigating through every drama just to know if a game is actually for me. These are the same people who want to "keep politics out of games"?
Voicing your disagreement with a company (whatever the reason) is necessary to get things to change.
Perhaps doing so will stop future decisions that hurt consumers and by consequence the developers, publishers etc.
I don't think it's too much to say they brought this on themselves by their actions and the backlash will cause them to think twice about doing the same in future.
The developer was actively encouraging their players to ask for refunds and leave negative reviews
Their community managers started off on the wrong foot with how they reacted, but issued strong apologies and quickly changed track. The CEO himself was tweeting about his own culpability in the mess and encouraging unhappy people to make their voices heard in reviews
Arrowhead's CEO was on Twitter explicitly telling people to refund and leave negative reviews, as that customer feedback gives them more leverage to negotiate with when discussing reverting the unpopular change. But nice "what about the children".
The developer a casualty, but not in the way you're trying to portray. They were a casualty of Sony's descision to cut the game off from over half of the countries in the world. In addition, the Helldiver's team and CEO told everyone to let Sony know what we thought with our words and our pockets, so we did -- and it worked. I'd suggest looking into these things more before spouting nonsense.
To us, you come off as irrational trying to defend Sony while using the developers as your (unwilling) ammo.
I’d say 10-15 years is an optimistic outlook for ”full autonomy”. Maybe in some regions of the world in certain weather conditions. Full autonomy in northern snowy countries isn’t going to happen in 10-15 years, imo.
