<p>Loved SimCity growing up.<p>Would it be possible to automate porting the windows version into a mac or web version? Like giving a long-running agent the task and some tools to check/play the game on both platforms?</p>

<p>It is a great book. I disagree though that all modern books on this are derivatives. I haven’t read many, but The Charisma Myth is a great book on human interactions, that I believe is very novel in its content and approach<p>Maybe a lot of the books do cover some of the same content, but that’s probably because human nature hasn’t changed much since the 30s, when Carnegie published his book</p>

<p>That book is very good. However, for some (including me at some point), it can be a bit advanced<p>I highly recommend the book The Charisma Myth, it covers a lot of the same topics, including very good exercises, to help understand and develop human interactions in general<p>Personally, it helped me be able to get into, the situations that the first book assumes the reader is already in, or comfortable with (like talking to strangers)</p>

<p>I do feel that CC sometimes starts doing dumb tasks or asking for approval for things that usually don’t really need it. Like extra syntax checks, or some greps/text parsing basic commands</p>

<p>Very cool idea. Been playing with a similar concept: break down one image into smaller self-similar images, order them by data similarity, use them as frames for a video<p>You can then reconstruct the original image by doing the reverse, extracting frames from the video, then piecing them together to create the original bigger picture<p>Results seem to really depend on the data. Sometimes the video version is smaller than the big picture. Sometimes it’s the other way around. So you can technically compress some videos by extracting frames, composing a big picture with them and just compressing with jpeg</p>
