How’d it turn out, are we boned?

It filled a niche at the right place / right time.

It was the first MMO for many, so it still has a following / nostalgia factor.

Is it not merely an example of such failure?

Birthdays, bachelor parties, random poker nights.

It's far easier and has further reach than doing it manually.

I'm not so sure. I think it's fair to say that only people who can output good art / code are qualified to evaluate the output of ai.

It's like how product people / C levels have absolutely no understanding of what makes for good code or a good engineering shop (aside from perceived costs.)

It's kind of like folks wielding gen ai and calling themselves artists.

Questionable output, generally shunned by artisans.

But possibly good enough for some.

The "right thing" here is subjective.

If one uses a good source of entropy (e.g. dice rolls) then one will not "get screwed."

> I don't know why anyone would keep their wealth in something that requires so much technical excellence.

It's not for everybody, for sure.

Lighten up, friend. Oracle dropping Java support does not an e-waste make.

I had more than my fair share of SD failures running pis off their official power supplies.

It really is a high failure rate.

Except 9/10 times microservices end up wildly dependent on each other, yielding a distributed monolith. Better to use service oriented architecture and just ship the monolith, you can test easier and skip the extra layers of serialization / deserialization.

You're thinking of == which type coerces the non-empty string to boolean true.

PHP is not the only language that has this type of behavior.
