I bought your game a few weeks ago; and out of everything I've fired up on my bravia...

I had the biggest smile watching all those smooth vibrant animations roll around like a dopamine factory.

I have a theory we can get the same levels of output with a optimized pipeline of various specialozed chain. Output is forced into a ruleset to mimick english grammar. Hpt even seems to say this pattern has a lot of potential

This is all my loos interpretation take it with a grain of salt.

1) In a very abstracted sense Id say yes

2) You have a pre-existing corpus of knowledge that allowed you to interface with thw game more fluently. From what i understand this whole thing would be more like a baby learning nothing other than pokemon.

Idk about 3 and 4

Automotive grade ethernet iirc is just using ethernet for either the same or a new fully deterministic network standard.

The concern shouldnt be about where things are in the now, but how these things will eventually be adapted for similar purposes in the future.

33 trillion dollars is a lot of money. Even unresonable levels of tax expansion across the would take forever to make that back, not to mention that that doest stop additional spending which still would likely be in excess of what we would collect extra.

I think SomethingAwful actuslly solves this problem eloquently, people are kes slikely to behave poorly when they pay for an account and have their name with site administration.

Alternatively i think building an invite only community by way of "web of trust" would also mitigate a lot of these issues.

Fair point. I guess im coming from the perslective that these records are already in EPIC and other medical record systems, why do we allow this if were gonna get offline docs? And if theyre already loaded, why not have a system that allows that data to be useable to us in a digitally native format?

And leave instant record transfer on the table in the time of an emergancy? I think all health records should be encrypted using pubkey crypto one key to patient and one to provider.
