      @@tgsgresh11 none of it? that's an overstatement if i've ever heard one. he got lucky enough in life to be included in that history.... well, the name he chose for the internet is included. 40 years from now, we're not going to see a documentary about this guy and his unfathomable contribution which paved the way for something which nobody else could have done. that is until you see the army of speed runners and programming wizards figuring out all of the information and compiling it together until one of the participants achieved the expectation through collective knowledge. like everything
      your sentiment is nice. but holy shit, is it dumb! hyperbole should be avoided when sincerity is your goal.
      praise him for his achievement in your eyes, don't just spout shit that sounds nice when it's just not true. i know that we know you mean well, but it's outlandish and poorly thought. sometimes you just need to be quiet. kind of how most people would react to what i've just typed out, thinking i should just be quiet. they're right, but i can't let someone NOT know they're letting themselves down by being absent minded with their actual intentions. say the nice things you feel, don't make silly statements the rest of us have to lie to you about and pretend it's true. it's not. he's one face who among many faces, were attempting these feats. he's a modern day (digital) version of an olympian. many many trials and failures with 3 giants atop the mountain... technically, he would be nothing if not for the armies of speed runners before him. i hope you get the point. stop watching business people on tv, they say shit like that to make idiots feel special. you actually want this guy to feel special so just say it. don't cover it up in nonsense because it sounds cool. otherwise people just tune out.
      this goes for all of us. we're only where we are because of the masses before us. to claim anything to belong to any one person, is ludicrous. WE did it. the runners, the viewers, the tireless volunteers and examiners of data and footage to clarify and document the discoveries and possibilities. ignoring the rest because 1 person put a bunch of it together is highly disrespectful. most of what we can and have done as humans, is often given a name but as the understanding improves, so does the name/designation of the thing because it's a collective effort.
      i think i've let slip the facade that this statement doesn't bother me.

I wouldn't blame either of you for missing some details there though - Glitchy wallkicks are deceptively complicated, and I even stated myself that the second one used in this strategy should be impossible, only to be proven wrong and then implement it in context for the first time.

      Separating cotton seeds from cotton fibers is tedious and time consuming bullshit to do, the invention of the cotton gin means that was one less obnoxious job for people to have to do, meaning they can work a less shitty job and/or have more free time.
      On the flip side, someone will always need to maintain a machine, so that'll always be a job. All maintenance will need supplying too, they'll need lubricants, cleaning agents, replacement parts, special tools probably, as well as an education in how to do their job, and that supplying needs its own supplying and its own maintenance.
      There'll always be paying jobs for people to do, one way or another, and Artificial Intelligence is actually remarkably stupid and uncreative. AI essentially needs us at all times, it has no gut instinct or sense of judgment, you know, those things which brought us humans all the way at the top of the foodchain over millions of years, and the kind of pattern recognition which machines can engage in is hopelessly primitive next to an evolved biological brain.
      Fundamentally, many animals, both out in nature and domesticated ones, have a substantial intellectual advantage over AI just by the virtue of that animal's own gut instinct and pattern recognition.

  • @Marcotonio
    @Marcotonio Před 7 měsíci +10

    Two things I think are worth mentioning:
    - Parsee's ability to do carpetless RTA was a bit understated. He did it several times in stage RTAs (it usually took other players a month of grinding to get it once, he was getting it 1/10 of the times or something liek that). So he had a solid chance of actually hitting it in a run, and was determined to do so in order to get a WR, as his gameplay was already borderline WR-capable, with carpetless giving him an edge over others. So I believe his determination to "destroy 120" by doing an unthinkable, excruciating trick that would make other runs rethink life is what drove Krithalith and others to really consider working harder on finding a setup for Carpetless.
    - The other thing are the competing methods. The default method, Orthogonal Jones, is faster but riskier, and Dezanig created a setup called Deza Jones to eliminate one of the shaky variables (the Double Jump before wallkicking), which allowed for two out of the 4 WRs that happened with carpetless since the implementation.
    Not to mention the "setup dictionaries", listing up all the directions possible to press with pausebuffers that Krithalith made, those were quite interesting and mindboggling, explaining how the trick is achieved by memorizing tiny visual cues might have been interesting to put in perspective how insane it is, despite its consistency.

    POV: You're Billy Mitchell and you have notifications on for Karl's channel. Every time you get a ping you get acutely scared and distressed that the latest video is about you. Heart racing, you open up your CZcams notifications and you see that it's about Super Mario 64.. this time. You breathe a sigh of relief, able to relax, if only for that moment. But the comfort is only temporary, for you know that the next hit on you is coming. You don't know when, and you don't know how bad it will be, but it keeps you awake at night, knowing it's coming..
    ...Happy Halloween 🎃

    Dude, I'm totally an outsider to all this stuff, but the collective work of the speedrunning community is amazing. It's no different from the scientific community where incremental progress is made by independent minds using different skills and tools. Would be great if there were a central repository for all the research people do on speedruns, like a peer-reviewed journal. That way people wouldn't just race to beat world records - some would race to publish a new exploit/strategy. The researchers could be the scientists, and the speedrunners could be the engineers.

    I watched Puncayshun’s run. The reason he calls it cringe is because carpetless, being such a massive time saver, took an otherwise really mediocre run into WR territory.
    A carpetless run played very well should save a minute or so, not just 1 second.
