Does your school have a robotics team or something along the lines of computing? That would be a good option. Also if you are still in high school and plan on going to college, you still have plenty of time to learn.

Well luckily AI researchers have achieved plenty in over 60 years. We call the ideas and innovations resulting from this research “AI.”

So the entire field of AI has produced no AI. Gotcha 👌

OK what qualifies as AI then?

allowing to customize its PCB specifically for the needs of FPGA console emulation.

From what I can recall, this is not what happened. He has stated multiple times that he’s designed it to work as much like a DE-10 Nano as possible. There are no significant differences between his board and the original from what I can tell.

Oof, programmers calling LLMs “AI” - that’s embarrassing

…but LLMs quite literally come from the field of computer science that is referred to as “AI.” What are they supposed to call it? I’m not a fan of the technology either, but seems like you’re just projecting your disdain for ChatGPT.

I’ve been following the Mister FPGA project and just set up my new one. It’s a great project. However I do not quite understand what the motivation of these consolized Misters are. It’s going to take significant software development effort to make a Mister completely polished, and it is such a niche target audience I’d think it wouldn’t be worth it.

How does a Kickstarter make sense for this? Feels too niche for enough people to find enough value to “invest” in this.

Japanese steakhouses originate from teppanyaki restaurants in Japan that cooked western style food. When you go to these style of restaurants, it is debatable how “Japanese” it is since it was never really a popular cuisine in Kapan despite originating there. This is reflected in the ingredients they use.

Rayman Legends, Pikmin 3, Super Mario 3D World, Smash Bros off the top of my head. It had plenty of excellent games

The first obvious question is “does this have something the MisterFPGA doesn’t?”

This is such a high level description that it is a meaningless comparison. The fact that Fallout doesn’t take itself nearly as seriously as Westworld is already a huge difference. Sometimes the implementation is what is valuable, not the idea.

She’s not in Link’s Awakening or Majora’s Mask off the top of my head. Pretty sure Link Is the only one who has been in all of themc

FYI, leetcode is not a “learn to code” website it is a “practice problems that will be asked at tech interviews” site. A lot of these problems are inspired by (or maybe are even literally from) interviews at “top companies” like Google, Facebook, etc. They are almost completely algorithmic or data structure problems, i.e. “unrelated to your actual work” (well, most of your actual work for most people).

Wouldn’t you argue that putting hard restrictions would have the benefit of shrinkjng your recruitment team? To be clear, I’m coming from an extremely anecdotal point of view, but to me it seems like tech is full of imposters jumping from job to job, playing up their experience. Recruiters cannot spot these people, because they know all the jargon despite having none of the skills. This is why these technical interviews exist, but now those are even being gamed by people by studying leetcode. I’d be really curious what a high quality tech recruiter does vs the average.

We do require a BS in computer science

The only scenarios where I’d think I wouldn’t require one are

1. I want cheaper labor
2. I am really desperate to fill a position
3. The skills I need in a candidate are incredibly niche, thus I want to widen the applicant pool.

#1 and #2 are indicative of other problems in your company. I get that you can be a good dev without a degree, but from an employer perspective, it seems like an easy way to save time and money on hiring. I am convinced that a lot of money is wasted on recruiters who throw everyone under the sun into the hiring process just so they can justify their existence.

Tbh, this is the first non-From soulslike I have been interested in. Love the gameplay format, but if you’re gonna knock it off, at least give of a bit more of a unique flair to make it stand out. There are so many FromSoft soulslikes there really isn’t much room for games that try to emulate it too closely, imo.

It’s not even that. Most previews/reviews say it isn’t even really a platformer.

The tech layoffs are not related to industry replacing those jobs with AI. Tech overhired and now they are adjusting. Simple as that.

And the SM64 PC port has existed for years at this point and has no sign of being taken down. You know why? They don’t distribute copyrighted assets. The people that made the Link’s Awakening port screwed up, plain and simple. There’s no other explanation for why their project gotten taken down and not SM64 or OoT ports, which are monumentally bigger games for Nintendo.
