Battle Vision Network is Capy’s spiritual successor to Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes

Battle Vision Network is Capy’s spiritual successor to Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes

The next title out of Capybara Games — the studio behind Super Time Force, Below and Grindstone — is a competitive, online puzzler with real-time strategy and color-matching mechanics, live updates and a seasonal narrative shaped by players. It’s called Battle Vision Network, and it’s heading to PC and mobile devices in 2025.Battle Vision Network feels like an encapsulation of Capy’s sensibilities over 20 years as an independent game studio. It’s adorable in a Saturday-morning-cartoon kind of way, kind of like OK K.O.! Let's Play Heroes. It relies on color-matching tactics, much like Grindstone. It has music from longtime Capy…

Golang Clients are Coming to Deephaven | Deephaven

Deephaven already offers several clients in varied languages (Python, Java, and C++ at the time of writing), but we are always looking to make the power of dynamic and streaming data available to more users. So, at the end of this month, Deephaven will also offer a native client for the Go programming language. In this article I’ll discuss the new client and what’s so special about it.Deephaven is a flexible data stack designed from the ground up to excel with real-time table data, both on its own and in conjunction with static (batch) data. Traditional table-based systems process data…

SQL generation: Golang’s builder pattern vs Clojure’s persistent map

SQL generation: Golang’s builder pattern vs Clojure’s persistent map

I worked on a TODO code assignment for showing off my skills, and more importantly, showing my weak points. I coded in Golang and Masterminds/squirrel. Later, I ported only the SQL generation part to Clojure to compare and discuss why I prefer Clojure, which I have usually been asked about or even met with opposition for. I will discuss function by function and type by type. The first function is makeStatement. func (repo *TodoRepoPg) makeStatement(orders []entity.Order, filters []entity.Filter) (string, []any, error) { builder := repo.Builder.Select("id, title, description, created, image, status") if err := buildOrders(&builder, orders); err != nil { return…

Former OpenAI Employee Says Company Had Plan to Start AGI Bidding War With China and Russia

"That's pretty f**ked up."Big TalkIn a new interview, a former OpenAI employee made a striking claim about his ex-employer's plans for artificial general intelligence (AGI) — or, more specifically, how to make a bunch of money off it.During a lengthy interview with tech podcaster Dwarkesh Patel, ex-OpenAI safety researcher Leopold Aschenbrenner claimed that he'd heard tell "from multiple people" that his erstwhile employer had, in years past, schemed to start a global AGI bidding war."At some point several years ago, OpenAl leadership had laid out a plan to fund and sell AGI by starting a bidding war between the governments…

Putting the power of AlphaFold into the world’s hands

Putting the power of AlphaFold into the world’s hands

Research Published 22 July 2022 Authors Demis Hassabis In July 2022, we released AlphaFold protein structure predictions for nearly all catalogued proteins known to science. Read the latest blog here.Today, I’m incredibly proud and excited to announce that DeepMind is making a significant contribution to humanity’s understanding of biology.When we announced AlphaFold 2 last December, it was hailed as a solution to the 50-year old protein folding problem. Last week, we published the scientific paper and source code explaining how we created this highly innovative system, and today we’re sharing high-quality predictions for the shape of every single protein in…

I toured American’s pilot training academy, where new hires learn to fly Airbus and Boeing jets. Here’s what the 3-week program looks like.

I toured American’s pilot training academy, where new hires learn to fly Airbus and Boeing jets. Here’s what the 3-week program looks like.

Airline pilots, who are responsible for hundreds of lives daily, dedicate years of training and studying to earn their seats in the cockpit.Most start their careers flying smaller jets at regional airlines and build up to flying Airbus and Boeing planes at the mainline carriers. Before they can fly passengers, however, new hires must complete weeks of ground and simulator training.I recently toured the flight academy at American's headquarters in Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas, with Alan Johnson, American's managing director of flight training and standards and veteran captain. The flight academy provides new hire, recurrent, and upgrade training. The minimum flight…

AI Appears to Rapidly Be Approaching Brick Wall Where It Can’t Get Smarter

"There is a serious bottleneck here."DevourerResearchers are ringing the alarm bells, warning that companies like OpenAI and Google are rapidly running out of human-written training data for their AI models.And without new training data, it's likely the models won't be able to get any smarter, a point of reckoning for the burgeoning AI industry."There is a serious bottleneck here," AI researcher Tamay Besiroglu, lead author of a new paper to be presented at a conference this summer, told the Associated Press. "If you start hitting those constraints about how much data you have, then you can’t really scale up your…
