It's not only a bad use of AI, as it has been discussed in other comments here.

The entire idea of the ad is Grinch-worthy. It was conceived and directed by someone who hates the season. It makes you want to close the browser, not going out to eat.


I would be the author of the first one

I've never owned an Apple computer, and I still miss the Aqua-era OS X UI.

There was something magical about it.


In that case, that editor better have a debugger as easy to use as the one in Turbo Pascal and Turbo C++.

Thanks Santa.


It is something some of us avoid.

If you are doing TUI, you can't miss Kakoune and Helix as popular editors.

Add them to your comparison benchmarks.


Kakoune and helix are modal editors. They're largely based on a text selection mode (like the `v` and `V` commands in vim) with commands acting on the selected text, so they're somewhat more intuitive than vi or vim, but the notion of distinct 'modes' is still key to the workflow. Fresh is a mode-free editor; much like nano, Emacs or the new Rust-based MS Edit.

And your point is?

Neovim is there!

(Neo)Vim is the quintessential modal editor. If your comment is generated by an AI, please don't post comments again.


They can only privatize the AI race.

If Google wins, we all lose.


I tested a Sherlock Holmes game where AI was used for character interactions.

The actual dialogues were of course awesome, and relevant.

I gave them feedback about the controls for moving the character, which were a bit awkward.


I am very skeptic there's much cheating in Counter Strike or Dota.

They use different means to detect cheaters, which means sometimes they are banned several weeks after the fact, but they do ban cheaters.


> - Broken games still pre-ordered

Only because new population enters the market.

I pre-ordered a game once. F1 2010. Since then, I have *never* pre-ordered anything.

I also opted out from any game that required a rootkit to play.

LAN gameplay is still a thing in the simracing world.

Again, this only continues because of new players. Any burned player will not fall for the same trick twice.


> Only because new population enters the market.

Yeah, not. I'm not saying is the same people pre-order the same games, but there is not THAT much new population influx.

> LAN gameplay is still a thing in the simracing world.

It's a niche within a niche. Also, I remember a guy named Max had a lot to say about the current state of sim-racing.
