From the job posting it sounds like the company value prop is AI agents as debt collector? They want to “solve deep problems like collecting more money”. What a shitty dystopia we’re creating.
Tech just became yuppie 2.0, just like in the 80s and early 90s every sociopath looking for a large paycheck jumped into finance, in the 2010s onward it's been tech.
It must be nice for you that you've never felt persecuted or treated unjustly by human systems and therefore can't extrapolate to how that might play out when autonomous killer robots are thrown into the mix.
Divinity: Original Sins was that game for me; everything I loved about U7, minus the annoying bits (collecting arrows, eating food every x minutes, time-of-day changes for NPCs).
And Divinity: Original Sin 2 improves on its predecessor in every way. It's the game Larian have been trying to make since their inception. Honestly, I'd recommend that new players skip straight to the sequel—you won't miss anything story-wise.
> Brazilians have done a terrible job of protecting their rainforest
While the Amazon is in Brazilian territory, it is one of the largest carbon sinks in the world and therefore has a global positive externality. Therefore this is not a domestic issue.
Perhaps by spreading awareness we can shift the Overton window on how these cross-border climate issues should be addressed. E.g. perhaps Brazil should be paid from a global fund to not cut down the rain forest.
In chess there are hundreds of annotated databases out there where I can study how the masters play, read analyses of different playing styles, and try to follow along and improve my own intuition.
Is there an equivalent for programming? Github and Stackoverflow are good resources, but it would be interesting to see something more structured. Perhaps a DB of a fixed set of problems such as projecteuler.net with voting and analysis of the submitted solutions.
I've just gotten started, but I'm going to gather solutions to the problems of projecteuler on github. Everyone should feel free to pitch in ones the format to submit on is established. Basically, you will be able to browse the solutions at http://projecteuler.github.io/ by language.
I end up just going with Asos due to their excellent return policies. There's too much variance among body types and brand-reported sizes that this doesn't seem like something crowdsourcing alone could ameliorate.
