![]() This ending is apparently no longer considered part of the Metro 2033 canon, as Metro: Last Light (and the novel, Metro 2034) picks up after the Ranger ending. Concluding that the future of humanity, and the Dark Ones, stretches beyond them – like an endless metro tunnel. In it, the Dark Ones of the surface praise Artyom's wisdom and mercy – Artyom's own monologue giving hint as to his own feelings of how war had already destroyed the world once, and he was not ready for it to do so again. The player then has about 20 seconds to make the choice in destroying the guidance system and stop the missile strike. As Artyom comes out of the dream, a quote from Khan is heard, and he sees the Dark One lying below the guidance system, reaching for it, trying to stop it - all the while still repeating the message of: ".we want peace.". If Artyom obtains enough positive moral points for the Enlightened ending, then instead of allowing the guidance system on top of the tower to guide the missiles and ultimately destroy the Dark Ones, Artyom awakens several seconds earlier, and the player is presented a choice. But to this day I wonder: When we burned the Dark Ones from the face of the earth, was something lost as well.? Metro 2033 Ranger – Destroy the Dark Ones “Ī wise man once said, "He who leads a war for the love of his fellow man, will defeat his enemies." I led my war protecting my family and friends, protecting my home - the Metro. The 'Ranger' ending is considered the canonical ending, as it is very similar to the novel. As the realization dawns on Artyom, so does the fact that he cannot do anything to stop the missiles, as they are a last thought going through his head. In the Metro 2033 novel, Artyom realizes that the Dark Ones are not as hostile as he had originally thought, and actually would assist humans in surviving the harshness of metro life, as they were -as the book says- "someone who could help establish communications between their deaf and blind elder brothers – with people". In Metro Exodus, there is the "Your Destination" ending, where Artyom lives and becomes the new leader of both the Order and a new community at Lake Baikal, and the "Eternal Voyage" ending, where Artyom dies of radiation poisoning. In Metro: Last Light, there is the "C'est La Vie" ending, in which Artyom and the Rangers sacrifice themselves and D6 to save the metro, and a "Redemption" ending, in which the Baby Dark One brings the surviving Dark Ones to help save Artyom and the Rangers by turning the tide of the battle. For Metro 2033, there is an "Enlightened" ending, where Artyom makes a decision of saving or destroying the Dark Ones, and a "Ranger" ending, where Artyom simply destroys them by the orders of Hunter. ![]() There are two Endings for Metro 2033, two endings for Metro: Last Light, and two endings for Metro Exodus, both based on the moral choices that the player makes throughout the game.

You might, however,want a wider beam on occasion, for camping, for instance. Beam distance and shape: For around-the-house or running use, your best option is a thinner beam.(Running a 400-lumen headlamp at 200 will also make the battery last longer.) We looked at headlamps that offered at least 200 lumens (except for the headlamps for kids). Based on our experience and research, we’ve found you don’t need more than 300 lumens for everyday tasks, and often 200 will do just fine. Lumen count also doesn’t tell you much about the actual light quality, either: From an optics perspective, the beam length and the shape both impact a light’s output more than the lumen number. However, there is the trade-off with weight, low run-time, and price,” said Victor Kabo, the co-founder of Bookman Urban Visibility, a Swedish company that makes bicycle lights. “A lot of lumens can be attractive to many and feel fun. But when you’re buying a headlamp, you don’t want to just go for the highest lumen count possible. For reference: 1 lumen is 10 times brighter than moonlight a flashlight offers about 20 lumens. Lumen count: Lumens are a measure of the quantity of light emitted from a light source.(If you want to save a little money, the discontinued Spot 350 is still a good headlamp, if you can find it.) As of 2023, you can also buy an add-on rechargeable battery for the Spot. The Spot 400 weighs 3 ounces, has a lock mode, and is weather-resistant.Īlthough headlamps with brighter, higher-quality beams exist, none offer the same combination of brightness, simplicity, and reliability at such a low price. It has a red light (for night use), a “proximity” floodlight (for a wider field of view), and strobe options (for throwing an emergency signal). The Spot 400’s two top buttons are intuitive to use you’ll have to experiment with clicking through the various modes, but the learning curve is fairly quick. The Spot has been at the top of our list since 2012 because it’s reliable and bright enough to light the way in most situations, indoors or outdoors. Whether you’re car camping or digging through a closet, the Black Diamond Spot 400 provides exactly what you need: a bright beam, easy-to-navigate buttons, and long-lasting battery life.

Template for describing antipatterns similar to the patterns template from the C2 WikiĪntiPatterns: Refactoring Software, Architectures, and Projects in Crisis by William J. The WIkipedia entry on Anti-Patterns contains a list of commonly referenced antipatterns. Other terms used include code smells and design smells.ġ995 Andrew Koenig originally coined the term antipattern in the March – April 1995 edition of the Journal of Object Oriented Program: “An antipattern is just like a pattern, except that instead of a solution it gives something that looks superficially like a solution, but isn’t one.”ġ998 Linda Rising reprints Keonig’s definition of antipattern in the The patterns handbook: techniques, strategies, and applications.ġ998 The book AntiPatterns: Refactoring Software, Architectures, and Projects in Crisis popularized the term. These are also known as “bad ideas”, but antipattern is considered a kinder label. Those include anti patterns and anti-patterns. The term has a variety of spellings which, at this writing, seem to be equally prevalent in use. The concept of antipatterns was inspired by the concept of design patterns, which indicate common effective solutions to common problems.Īntipatterns were initially applied in the context of software development, but have extended to other aspects of software engineering, organizations, and project management.Ĭoaches and consultants like to invoke antipatterns as a way of pointing out behavior they often see in teams they coach and as an avenue of suggesting better patterns.
In artificial intelligence, machines are made to behave in wondrous ways, often sufficient to dazzle even the most experienced observer. However Weizenbaum himself did not claim that ELIZA was genuinely intelligent, and the introduction to his paper presented it more as a debunking exercise: The notoriety of Turing's proposed test stimulated great interest in Joseph Weizenbaum's program ELIZA, published in 1966, which seemed to be able to fool users into believing that they were conversing with a real human. This criterion depends on the ability of a computer program to impersonate a human in a real-time written conversation with a human judge to the extent that the judge is unable to distinguish reliably-on the basis of the conversational content alone-between the program and a real human. In 1950, Alan Turing's famous article " Computing Machinery and Intelligence" was published, which proposed what is now called the Turing test as a criterion of intelligence. Companies spanning various industries have begun using the latest generative artificial intelligence technologies to power more advanced developments in such areas. ![]() Ī major area where chatbots have long been used is in customer service and support, such as with various sorts of virtual assistants.

Such technologies often utilize aspects of deep learning and natural language processing, but more simplistic chatbots have been around for decades prior.
