The Great Automation Scam

So I keep reading about automated trucks on the road. Sure helps with stock numbers I'm sure. Uber quit there automated trucks department, probably a smart move on their part. Better for them to focus on things that are real and actually exist.

Lots of companies claim they have these trucks. But they do not. They are liars. Probably looking for a buyer. They'll probably sell there "automated trucking company" for billions of dollars and cause the next big stock crash just like the 90's dot com bust. Billions of dollars wasted on tech that just isn't feasible. Sure would make some people rich but truckers wont be out of the business. Since all the hype about automation, most young people would never get into trucking so there will be a great shortage of truckers. This will cause a huge stalled out economy. The stalled economy will hurt the stock market and everything else with it.

People will be scratching there stupid heads wondering why things aren't looking so great. Well, it's because automation is a hyped train that set to blow up. The lies, the liars, and the stooges that help them, will all be culpable.

Problems with LOD and Global Illumination in Unity

Real Time Global Illumination and LOD There is a problem with the Level of Detail (LOD) system Unity uses and real time Global Illumination. When you move your camera around objects will change their appearance based on LOD. But what you may have noticed is the lighting changes dramatically with the LOD changes. This is because LOD doesn't work with Global Illumination, unless you also use Light Probes. Quick Fix All you have to do is use light probes and the LOD will use the light probe data to make the lighting look right when the objects are changing out dependent on the camera distance. You also must use a Light Probe Proxy Volume component. Some Links For Further Research Unity Forum On LOD and Lighting Problem This link will take you to the Unity forum that shows pictures of the same problem with LOD lighting. The fix is also discussed here by a Unity representative. Unity Light Probes Manual This is a link to the Unity manual that also talks about the fix for
