the very same! Angela Chao

so true bestie

there was a wife of a billionaire who drowned by accidentally driving a tesla into a pond on her estate, because of the touchscreen gearshifting problem. I’ll try and look up a source of anyone wants it

whatever kind of person it is that uses LLM datasets and digital assisstant spyware apps, i don’t think primordial nor goo are accurate desciptions of them

from what I’ve heard, the Netherlands was a lot more car-based in the 1960s. is it possible that there is a delay to the difference in diagnoses?

which would of course be so much worse than a US data harvesting company

the driver is charged but the company… not liable at all? if i use a toaster and it explodes and kills my next door neighbour, should i be arrested or should the toaster manufacturer?

thank you for this thoughtful comment. i was scrolling, hoping in vain for someone to bring up reproducibility, or more specifically, HARCing

im no expert, i just finished ep. 3 yesterday. me and my partner agreed that they should have rolled the first 3 episodes into one 90 inute episode, because the first two do t have any kind of story to them, just setup

just a heads up to anyone watching andor. the first two episodes are… wait until episode 3 to judge if you like the show or not

I’ve thought for a xouple of minutes, and my best idea is Minecraft. not that they accidentally made it fun, but i think they set out to make a survival game with crafting, and accidentally made a sandbox for creations of boundless imagination.

thanks for your perspective!

to be clear, i don’t think it’s necessarily a problem for everyone in the city, i guess i was exaggerating. but for the people who live right next to a stadium thoroughfare, or right outside a venue, i imagine it can be denilitating. any idea if that was the case in 2012, one way or the other?

years ago i heard some advice. “if someone walks past while you’re working and says ‘good job!’ then sure, it’s nice, but you’ve forgotten by the time they’ve turned the corner. whereas if someone insults you, if they say your nose looks like a fishing hook with a rotten worm dangling on the end, you can remember that for the rest of your life. it’s not because we only remember bad things, it’s because one is specific, the other general. when you give a compliment, try and be as specific as possible.” i still remember my child hood best friend’s response to ‘why do you hang out with me?’ “because you’re the sort of person who, if i ask you to come and shoot a knockoff version of the hobbit with me in the local woods wearing a dressing gown, i know the answer is gonna be yes, no matter how silly the idea.”

i sincerely hope my nearest city never has to host a world cup, an olympics, a eurovision, or anything similarly disruptive. even something like a marathon can make it very difficult to get around, and all the tourism overwhelms waste disposal. basically means I’d have to stay home all day. i can only imagine what 2 weeks straight would do to me
