with the ability to select an arbitrarily large number of units into a single grouping, and the ability to queue instructions for units or groups to follow,
Just an FYI, starcraft 2 allows you to do both of those things
I think the problem you're seeing isn't with the way the sprites are projected into 2D, but rather they couldn't change the number of frames in each action. So the animations look jerky and rough instead of smoothly flapping their wings (or whatever).
They couldn't change the animations because that would change the behavior of the code, and gamers rely on precise timings and such for micro. They probably could have made some changes, but it would have been a lot harder and the codebase isn't great. People rely on bugs as standard strategy now.
Truly the difference between single and multi-player should be emphasized. I was talking about the multiplayer, and you are talking about the single player.
In terms of single-player, I enjoyed LoTV more than any of the others, although I admit the ending is kind of lame.
At this point though, Starcraft 2 is vastly superior to Starcraft 1 in every way. When 2 was first released, you could make a decent argument that it was an inferior game. When Heart of the Swarm came out, it was at least close to Starcraft 1 in terms of gameplay, but now with Legacy of the Void the game is clearly a level above Broodwar.
Looks like he might trash the US' healthcare system, but from what I hear, that was never really available to most people in the first place.
The vast majority of Americans have access to healthcare. The vast majority of poor people can/do get medicaid. There's just a small sliver of people in the space between "poor enough for medicaid" and "rich enough to get employer paid insurance" where people have trouble.
The other difficulty is when you quit your job (while looking for a new one, or taking a break, or whatever), insurance can lapse.
I was reading the oxford paper, and that does not seem to be the conclusion that their team reached,
Which conclusions are you talking about? That the economy is a job creating machine and is continuing to be so? The paper isn't about that, as is explicitly mentioned in the part you quoted: "the present study is limited to examining the destruction effect of technology"
It is rather short on details, but makes the salient point about alpha-go creating a wholly original move, through machine "creativity."
I know how AlphaGo works, and it's not the breathless hyperbole in the article. Workers are more at danger from bog-standard automation like ATM machines than from scary AI.
As for the Oxford paper, you have to view it as an outer bound on the number of jobs that can be performed by machine (though not necessarily will). It's based on assumptions that AI projects like AlphaGo reach potential that even their creators don't hope for. The actual number is likely to be much, much less.
But you don't have to look at advanced AI, plenty of jobs in the economy can be replaced by standard automation, "disrupted" to use SV terms. In fact, the past 30 years has seen tremendous destruction of jobs. In the last century it's even worse: over 90% of the jobs that existed have been destroyed.
That is all balanced out because the economy is a job creating machine. As mentioned, we have more jobs than ever, despite all that destruction. The job creation machine is going to ramp up and keep creating more, even as other jobs are being destroyed.
Because there are things like tipping points in economics.
When do you think that will happen? When will it start to happen? Do you have a prediction, or is this just wild speculation? Right now there are more jobs in the US than there have ever been, more people working.
It could be because you never typed "n*****" into the youtube search bar. The article is surprisingly good and has quite a number of examples:
Ads for Coca-Cola, Starbucks, Toyota, Dish Network, Berkshire Hathaway Inc.'s Geico unit and Google's own YouTube Red subscription service appeared on racist videos with the slur "n-----" in the title as of Thursday night.
Another video titled "Black people in their natural habitat," with a racial slur in the description, played monkey noises over footage of black men in prison and images of black civil-rights leaders Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. Google showed ads for Amazon, Microsoft and GM's Chevrolet unit before or during that video.
Google showed ads for PepsiCo's Quaker Foods unit, Microsoft's Minecraft videogame and FX Networks' "Fargo" on a 15-minute video titled "EXPOSING THE JEWISH LIES." The video showed a sermon from Steven Anderson, the founder of the Faithful Word Baptist Church in Arizona, which the Southern Poverty Law Center has deemed a hate group for promoting views that the Holocaust was a hoax and gay people should be killed.
Part of the reason the companies are pulling support could be because they want to negotiate a better deal on advertising costs. Incidentally I couldn't post this until I starred out the n-word in my post, apparently Slashdot censors that.
The percentage here isn't the story, the story is that they are recommending open source.
Fifteen years ago, that wouldn't have happened: open source was a communist virus.

More likely Microsoft will add a line to the EULA allowing them to automatically upgrade.
It runs on Wine (at least the old one does, we'll see about the new one)
Personally, I would prefer a remake with the SC2 engine.
The Starcraft 2: Mass Recall mod does exactly that.

What key-mapping do you use in SC2? The default one, or do you use The Core?
OpenSSL can only be improved by rewriting.
As one of the 50% percent who never goes to the dentist, I can assure you it has nothing to do with cost. The percentage without healthcare is at 9%.

Because it's a fun game, mainly.

She isn't in jail yet? It seems like textbook case of fraud.
Most cite a major tipping point in the next 20 years as being "highly probable."
Not even this article predicts that.
Because there are things like tipping points in economics.

Most people, actually, if you're sitting here surfing the net on your laptop.
Human society NEEDS to be ready for the inevitable reality where NOBODY works
Why? Why not change things when it happens? The time when NOBODY works is a long time from now.
They should use ElasticSearch.

Good to know.
they don't even sound the same.
In Americanish they do.
