This is super impressive attention to detail, and an awesome medium for such a statement

Lmao, even

If they spent 1% of the time and budget of the visuals on making the game fun it’d be a really neat game

For those of you who (like me) have no fucking clue what the ex Blizzard CEO is doing

Totally agree. I’d like it if they tried a bigger battery recharge allowance and deploy per lap, or unlimited, just for quali. I see how it slippery slopes from there, but with such great overtaking and racing if you design a car to qualify well it won’t win you races alone on most circuits

What an incredible first win for Kimi. That pic with Bono and Lewis is gonna be iconic someday, surely.

I don’t think he can take the fight to George this year but I also don’t think he’ll make it a Max-style runaway win either. Hopefully Kimi learns enough and improves to be a future title winner with it

Jesus that’s bleak

Yup, I think likely at least one car would be ahead of Kimi if they split the strat.

Yeah, that could easily be a low pace by Russell to manage the gap. Also it is a boldly early stop, and if they’re slower than Merc outright an opposite strategy is good.

But splitting the strat would’ve been good like lewis said right away

To be fair it was pretty fucking busy for most of it

2 total. They could swap back to the first one anytime though, since they haven’t introduced a third yet. So it could be just checking it out? Doesn’t mean he burned through a whole ES in a quali session

I think it’s more the PU is shaking itself apart more specifically. As in the ICE vibrations are damaging the battery. That’s all Honda’s purview. AM might have made a good car and gotten a shit PU from their partner, and that super sucks.

Totally agree with you. Doesn’t look good!

this is so lovely to hear! Just got to chat with my partner on what you said and it’s so exciting and affirming to hear from a linguist.

I studied japanese on my own for almost a decade. Lots of kanji studying, mostly. My spoken japanese is not great at all, and I constantly feel like I should be way better than I am. It’s been a huge pain point for years for me. Meanwhile I learned Spanish (maybe B1+/B2) growing up, working with a lot of Spanish speakers, having Spanish speaking friends. So very little real studying and I don’t know a damn think about grammer or rules. But I recently had to use it for a few weeks in Spain and it was fine. I’m sure I made a million mistakes but I was understood and could understand.

Small self flattery ahead, be warned.

Now learning Danish, i basically got off the plane and was like “okay someone teach me how to order a beer”. I have been mostly just talking and listening and it’s going so freaking well. A year and a half in and I’m easily B1+ or B2 (confirmed B1 in school but ahead of the curve by a lot). I work in danish(well danglish), can play a board game or drink in all danish and it’s fine (albeit a bit of a cognitive load). I can’t believe the difference in the learning styles.

Needless to say I deleted Duolingo a while back and am happy about it

Man i love to hear the news about Duolingo and to hear a linguist’s opinion on it. I’ve always loved languages and have basically always had one that I’m studying at any given time. Of course I’ve tried Duolingo in that.

I moved to Denmark in 2024 and have been learning the language. I have a bunch of friends and acquaintances in various stages of learning it, to varying degrees of success. It’s been my running theory that Duolingo is the most antithetical to success tool you can use. It uses up effort and time for almost no result, while making you feel like you should be better because you’re now “level whatever”.

Immersion and trying and failing are so fucking good for learning, it’s insane. I’ve definitely been too hard on myself in the past comparing myself to people who have learned by living somewhere and how much better/faster they’ve learned.

Or maybe it’s more energy efficient to cook it for 10000 seconds at 25*, just leave it out on the counter

That’s fair, I only meant it to poke fun at the LLM simulating battle scenarios, I know it’s useful in general to simulate and wargame

Maybe it has a bunch of leaked files from the WarThunder forums as well!

Simulating battle scenarios is absolutely hilarious, adults standing around the magic 8 ball

So all of the pics outside of the house are slop instead. I was really confused wtf the driveway was made out of, now I know (it’s not)

Ah gotcha. Or a known list yeah

No, it’s always guessing false and 99991 is prime so it isn’t right. This isn’t the output of the program but the output of the program compared with a better (but probably not faster) isprime program
