Hah, did you ask each of them if they think they need a manager? Were they intentionally trying to convince you they had no use at the company?

Valve is a master class in how to run a company.

I wouldn't go that far, they have had their fair share of criticisms of their unique corporate structure. The "no one reports to anyone else" model has seen many complaints of cliques, redundant work, wasted efforts, abandoned projects, and popularity contests to ensure you receive a good review at the end of the year.

They're successful, yeah, but so are a lot of toxic work environments. Hopefully they've improved.

Moving faster than the speed of light is not just impossible, it literally doesn't make any sense...but neither does this creature, so...

One option is to try cooking them low and slow. Reduce the cooking temp and go for longer. This will take some trial and error.

Another option is to poke them part way through, before they split, to give steam a way to get out.

Finally, try keeping a close eye on them. When one splits, take them out before the rest follow, they're done.

They had the same or fewer employees when they were making games, though.

I think the Spongebob movie was a few years too late, like 5 years after the show premiered. By the time it came out, I had lost interest. South Park was great timing, though; only 2 years after it started, and afaik still holds the Guinness World Record for most swear words in an animated film.

Whatever we observe empirically is "natural" by definition. Causality is an assumption, not a law of nature.

Something to look for besides bandwidth is actual packet routing throughput. It's possible you enabled a feature (ex. Deep packet inspection) that is limiting how many packets can be routed per second given the speed of your hardware.

The red cross symbol is actually not a generalized symbol and use of it is heavily controlled by the American Red Cross non-profit. There is a history of lawsuits against video games for using the red cross on medkits without permission. If a pharmacy in the US uses it, they no doubt had to seek approval.

The copyright issue is tangential. You don't have to train a model using unethically sourced artwork, just like you don't have to build a structure using slave labor. Nintendo has the resources to legally protect themselves one way or another if they actually wanted to use generative AI.

We haven't really seen high quality art that uses AI as part of the creative process yet, but this could be similar to the animation studios of the 90s who refused to use computers. They're all out of business now.

The reality is, generative AI is a really powerful tool, so they will be at a disadvantage going forward if they don't use it.

Think you mean 1001 to 2000 😉
