Picture of a blue teapot sticker, painted with white flower motifs. Photo of a hand holding a square art print on a backdrop of stationery and art supplies. The print features an illustration of an olive tree, focusing on its trunk and roots. In the nooks and crannies created by the green-grey tree bark are tiny doors, windows, and staircases, suggesting that this is a burrow for small critters. The earth is yellowish-red, weeds and grass sprout from it. In the background are some hills dotted with trees. The texture of the illustration is grainy, reminiscent of colored pencil. Around it there are more stickers, cards and stationery. Picture of a single very colorful fish stickers. On the background more fish stickers can be seen, different from the one being held in focus. Picture of the inside of a greeting card. On the left page is the text “to blank, congrats on top surgery”. The T is capitalized and decorated like a medieval typeface. The frame is dark and ornate with flowers and foliage, which extend all the way to the bottom of he page where an elegant dagger is portrayed. On the right page, there empty are lines left blank.

I'm so tired of being cold all day.
64°F is not a reasonable temp for an office to be.

"save systems should dynamically handle object IDs and automatically populate the serialized data of every object that requires save states, and then for dialogue progression it needs to-"

team cherry:
WRONG. 1400 hardcoded fields in PlayerData.cs
a bunch of very specifically named hardcoded boolean fields in a single script representing the entire save state of the game

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous

this is worth sharing and educating people about
screenshot of a post on facebook from Alex Lamoreaux, depicting two versions of the "same" photograph of a bobcat in front of a pine plantation, one labeled original game cam photo, one labeling AI processed the markings have been altered on the AI photo, and the head changed and resized text says: Oh! A neat goose hybrid posted to ‘What’s this Bird?’ but when you zoom in on the photos the bill details have been too manipulated by AI photo editing to be accurately assessed for which species may be involved. Scroll on… A cool-looking Red-tailed Hawk that someone is wondering which subspecies it might be - right up my alley! But when you zoom in on the photos literally every feather group has been so heavily manipulated and altered by AI editing that it’s impossible to determine subspecies because the photo is essentially fake now; just a mashup of whatever AI thinks parts of a Red-tail should look like. Scroll on… WOW! That’s a remarkable trail cam photo of a Bobcat! It almost looks like a painting!… but the head looks oddly small…. hmmmm. After some prodding the original photo is produced and sure enough it had been so heavily altered by AI ‘post processing’ that the photo posted was essentially a digital mock-up with totally different proportions and fur markings. No longer the photo off the trail cam; it may as well have just been ‘created’ by AI from scratch. This stuff is killing me. My days on social media are becoming very limited. We can’t even trust simple, everyday photos of animals to be real. The wildlife community needs to quit editing with AI, and we need to start calling out photographers that are using it. Our reality is being destroyed all around us.
