I actually usually feel the same way as you about most trick-taking games, so I usually avoid them.

I did play “Scout” with my group a couple months ago, and found it to be pretty good, so you could give that one a try.

I feel like you can do both these days, can’t you? Hades was one of the first to break this ground.

Well, yes and no.

Quantum computers will likely never beat classical computing on classical algorithms, for exactly the reasons you stated, classical just has too much of a head start.

But there are certain problems with quantum algorithms that are exponentially faster than the classical algorithms. Quantum computers will be better on those problems very quickly, but we are still working on building reliable QCs. Also, we currently don’t know very many quantum algorithms with that degree of speedup, so as others have said there isn’t many use cases for QCs yet.

What is this garbage? If I own a house/gold/collectable/toilet paper during covid/… and the value goes up, am I supposed to pay taxes?

Yes, you are supposed to pay taxes on that (or on the house specifically). It’s called property taxes.

If the value goes up, you pay more taxes the next year, if the value goes down you pay less.

I’m not sure the ownership situation of the company, but it is also independently in bankruptcy so I think that is being dealt with later

Hi Will!

Now that you’ve tried out directing as well as acting, which side of the camera do you prefer?

Are there any things you’ve learned from the experience of directing that you think will help in future acting roles? Additionally, is there anything you would do differently about directing Kodar if you got to start over from scratch today?

How long did you play BoI for if getting burned out on Hades after 40hrs was fairly quick?

Those stats are misleading though. Autopilot only runs on highways, which are much safer per mile even for human drivers.

Tesla are basically comparing their system, which only runs in pristine, ideal conditions, against an average human that has to deal with the real world.

As far as I’m aware they haven’t released safety per mile data from the FSD cars yet, and until they do I will remain skeptical about how much safer it currently is.

Yes, but notably you can design to reduce the risk of leaking hydrogen. If the areas around the tanks are designed to allow any leakage to vent before it reaches dangerous levels, you can reduce the risk. Yes hydrogen is flammable, so tanks of it are dangerous. Jet fuel is also quite flammable, and we’ve used that for a long time.

This is all in contrast to the design of the Hindenburg, which was specifically trying to hold onto a bunch of hydrogen in the flammable regime

I’m guessing that they are (falsely) equating it to the hindenburg, when IMO it wouldn’t be much different safety-wise than current fossil fuel powered planes.

It’s not like they would be filling the wings and luggage compartment with free-floating hydrogen, it stays in it’s tank

It’s optional for beating the games story, but required if you are trying for full (112%) completion.
