I wonder why Paul said that circumcision wasn't necessary but adultery, stealing, murder, lying, etc, are immoral? I think circumcision was considered "ceremonial" rather than "moral". It has to do with being God's people in the old covenant.

If there are many alien civilizations being simulated the simulation would be a lot more expensive. Games are often about cutting corners.

There is now a Flesh Levitator that is a bit like Half-Life 2's gravity gun. It can be used for tossing corpses into the pit to tidy up the place. You now have a choice to have blood and gore or not. If you decline you see this title screen: You can also vomit:

This is about early stages before AI could take over the world: https://www.anthropic.com/research/agentic-misalignment

I agree with this concept because it has happened to me - when I've been manic I'd believe that things are "perfect" - but a manic episode isn't simply having a positive emotion - Note while manic I've never been irritable though others could find me irritating. So the key thing here is about...

@Loren Pechtel Do you still believe "AI coding assistance has been shown to be of negative value"? i.e. people are better off not using AI to help with coding? Using search I can find if the question exists on Stack Overflow or the Unity forums and it often isn't. Sometimes on Stack Overflow...

I deliberately said "I still haven't detected any bugs" to imply that there still could be bugs. The main thing for my game is that it isn't noticeably buggy. Note that the Unity game engine itself can have bugs as well. In my previous post to you I quoted statistics about how common bugs...

I write and review the code myself. In the past I also reviewed the code of other people (mainly PHP). What do you think of post #26? Note that often these days there is a thing called "one shot" where the AI can successfully deliver what was asked in the first try.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2898571/basis-for-claim-that-the-number-of-bugs-per-line-of-code-is-constant-regardless Humans don't produce completey bug-free code either... Anyway like I wrote, it can detect bugs/issues and fix them automatically...

A month ago things have changed... The prompt: What it made from scratch: It also fixed errors it came across while it was coding. It can also organise code to be well organised/modular and easy to understand and write documentation, etc. From about an hour in:

Note lately I've been using it to occassionally try and fix issues and optimize code. I normally do new functionality and organisation myself. In my previous post it talked about LINQ - which I’ve used but I wasn’t sure how to avoid its use in an efficient way.

Actually the extensive changes it made resulted in no noticeable bugs. See post #18 for a summary for the large number of optimizations. It gave very elegant and easy to read code. I could even ask it to make parts even more elegant (and give it some code to keep). I can't even understand most...

From post #301: So I'm talking about binary rather than ternary... But that doesn't make sense - if there was binary on/off for all of the spots it means that you could have all, some or none of +1, 0, 1 but it should just be one of those three (trit rather than bit).

In post #1 I wrote: About 2 days ago the "All Together Now" 3 CD set arrived which cost A$40. Now I'm thinking about getting the next one, "All Together Again"...
