Is there a group that more consistently makes category errors than computer scientists? Can we mandate Philosophy 101 as a pre-req to shitting out research papers?

Edit: maybe I need to take a break from Mystery AI Hype Theater 3000.

Boss needs you to find the contiguous subarray with the maximum sum. Says he needs it by EOB Friday.

At least for me in the US, performance was very good. I was able to 100% Sekiro, for example.

The reason I think it was a freebie is:

  1. Everyone was stuck in-doors about six months after launch
  2. Everybody wanted to play videogames, but no one could get GPUs and the console situation was not great
  3. Cyberpunk 2022 2077 came out and tons of people wanted to play it. It ran terribly on consoles and on PCs, but surprisingly well on Stadia at launch

It may have still failed altogether anyway, but the fact that they didn’t seize this opportunity, and instead stuck by their absolutely confusing-as-fuck “like Netflix but not really; first let me explain how this works” subscription model, always gets me.

Edit: Cyberpunk 2077 🤦🏻‍♂️

OR they could drop all the letters but NFT and start a newspaper focusing on economic current affairs

Firstly, if this is literally true they’re completely fucking cooked.

I totally believe it. Y’all remember Stadia? That was a cosmic freebie and Google absolutely dropped the ball on it so laughably hard.

It’s a reference to the fact that the kind of person who would try and justify this sort of race science is also the kind of person who is “just asking questions.” Combined with the tech industry’s tepid “it’s just a tool, it’s not inherently evil” bullshit, I think OPs point is obvious to anyone who isn’t a pedant, deliberately acting in bad faith.
