How many bugs do a human introduce in 1000 line PRs and 50 line PRs?

A discovery by a giant is in some sense a new base vector in the space of discoveries. The interesting question is if a statistical machine can only perform a linear combination in the space of discoveries, or if a statistical machine can discover a new base vector in the space of discoveries.. whatever that is.

Swedish politician Ebba Busch used LLM to write a speech. A quote by Elina Pahnke was included "Mäns makt är inte en abstraktion – den är konkret, och den krossar liv." (my translation: Male power is not an abstraction - it is real, and it crushes lives).

Elina listened in on the speech and got surprised :)...

Ebba apologized, great, but it begs the question: how many quotes and misguided information is being acted on already? If crucial decisions can be made off incorrect decisions then they will. Murphys law!

> You don't get to sell a car with an asterisk that says "by the way, the fuel tank leaks so until we find a way to fix it you'll use twice as much fuel as normal".

Yeah. But in case of CS2, gamers did buy the leaking car. Devs analogously said "by the way, the fuel tank leaks" and people just went with "OK" and bought CS2, after which the customer started to complain (rave?!) about leaking fuel tanks. The car salesman retail store said "Well you can have all money back no questions asked until you've driven at least 160km". Steam has generous refunds. What does the customer do? (S)he still goes onto review sites and bitch about bad leaking fuel tanks. It is very much in bad faith on the customers part.

I wouldn't rush to Colossal Games defense if customers just said "It ran bad for me on my 4090 for some reason so I refunded". That's not what's going on with the negative reviews though. People act entitled.

> 5 FPS on an average GPU.

> I'm at 35fps on low setting

You can admit that you exaggerate.

>If you're satisfied with the game being playable then play it, but others may have different expectations of quality, and it's not wrong for them to voice their opinion when the product they paid money for doesn't meet them.

I'm all for voicing opinions in a civic and calm manner. Most people online voicing their opinions come off as know-it-all teens or children throwing tantrums. It's as-if they have a _right_ to a CS2 with 120fps. Paradox warned about bad performance prior to launch (https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/updates-on-modd...). Nobody claimed or said performance was gonna be great. And still, people act surprised.

It's no surprise that the reviews was down at close to 30% a couple of hours into the release and today at 52%. Why is there such a massive bias towards large reviews at the first hours? Because many gamers loves thrashing about. It's much more important than taking a step down and calming down.

Problem with these kinds of statements is that.. well, they're not true. I have RTX 2070 running in 3440x1440. I'm at 35fps on low settings with some special stuff turned off, e.g GI and fogs. In an small town with 4k inhabitants still, so things can get worse for me.

Regardless, the problem is blown out of proportion. I think we can give it some weeks and 4090 performance issues will be in the past.
