chicken and rice has oil and some savoriness but it's not jacked to the tits with spice like an indian curry or any thai food - in that regard, compared to other asian cuisines, yes it is bland. compared to midwest mac & cheese, sure, maybe it's less bland but even then I bet a midwesterner could pleasantly eat the dish where they would be on the struggle bus eating indian food

> public static function words(string $document): array {

>, though is verbose, at least means something

I disagree, it is hardly verbose. there can be further detailing of the input and return value of the function beyond a simple type. Java didn't go far enough, not by a long shot - we need hardcore painstaking, completely brutal typing. Such typing will be highly beneficial for software reliability - you're not against reliability are you?

kind of sounds like suppressing fever e.g. with Tylenol would actually be bad for (normal) flu progression.

you're just the tip of the iceberg my friend - did you know "horse dewormer" ivermectin has long been given to humans - for decades - to treat parasitic infections?

exactly, men process emotions just like how women rip massive dimensional tearing farts - so discretely as if it never happens

In this case never ascribe to geopolitical maneurverings as what can be explained by simple (((corporate greed))) and (((political greed)))

the slowest API i ever seen is FastAPI

>The above scenario has been studied by various papers and the government. The prices simultaneously act as both a "cost to buy" and as a "message to cooperate".

Yea I mean. A simple watch of movie film "A bueaitful Mind" starring John Nash as math genius russel crowe. Crowe equilibrium or whatever it's called. That scene where the nerds were in the bar trying to get the girl. his friends said let the best man win and crowe said - no - only way to win is we collude. and then they won. Now imagine that -- but it's not russel crowe, it's united airlines.

I mean if you look at companies from that crowe equilibruim perspective and treat them as sophisticated and rational.. one would expect most everything to be rigged!

I love hummingbirds. Hummingbirds are awesome. My name is Amy and I can't stop thinking about hummingbirds. These guys are cool; and by cool, I mean totally sweet.

Facts:

1. Hummingbirds are mammals. 2. Hummingbirds humm ALL the time. 3. The purpose of the hummingbird is to flip out and eat flowers.

Hummingbirds are sooooooooooo sweet that I want to crap my pants. I can't believe it sometimes, but I feel it inside my heart. These guys are totally awesome and that's a fact. Hummingbirds are fast, smooth, cool, strong, powerful, and sweet. I can't wait to start yoga next year. I love hummingbirds with all of my body (including my humm humm).

they tried selling years ago, not much happened, coral

now they dont want to sell them - why power local inference when they can saubscribe forever and you get their juicy datas too

Just to go off of this, I used to be a huge unix zealot - pipes, fork(), all of it, init, zombie processes.

I felt like systemd was an epiphany. Software doesn't need to a collection of simple tools that do one thing really well. You can have one tool that does everything shittily, the pdf reader of init if you will, and that's systemd. The author went on to do brilliant work with pulseaudio, you know, the whole /dev/dsp everything including sound is a file, oof. Let's make it a weird complex server process, oh, and let's make another sound system after that too.

I was very happy to see Lennart Poelering had joined microsoft to bring his brilliance to windows. I'm sure he's just cranking out masterpiece after masterpiece of design for them. I actually switched from unix to windows after being so inspired the tremendous quality and sensical design of both pulseaudio and systemd. Oh, and both very reliable, simple, and intuitive.

I work as a custodian lead and our custodial staff has long dreamed of an app called "Poopalert". What Poopalert does is use smartpipes (toilet drains equipped with smart device tech such as employee biomedical health monitoring) - so it uses smart pipes to see if there is an unflushed toilet. Then are staff will go flush and clean, so the next guy gets the proper clean experience, and we dock the phantom shitter a small premium for the service which goes to our bonus pool. Anyway, with the smartpipes we can also tell if an employee is unwell or a risk, basically assess their healthy status, and cull the herd so to speak by firing the bottom 10% least healthy workforce.

This will lead to an organization of obedient, respectful, team players, all of which are very healthy - and make our custodial duties - or doodies as it were - much easier!!

I mean if you writing joe slop tax softare you can use whatever mixin decorator singleton factory performance be damned, slop doesn't need performance, in fact, is frowned upon in slop developers as too showy and flashy, puts people off.

Now if you're say writing a high performance game, rendering engine, then maybe you want to squeeze out another 10 frames per second (FPS) but not committing resources to the overhead of that mixin decorator singleton factory facade messenger design pattern and just have some concrete tight C or assembly loop at the beating heart of it all

google what you just said and look at the top hit

it's a AI summary

google eats that ad revenue

it eats the whole thing

it blocked your click on the link... it drinks your milkshake

so, yes, there a 100 billion commercially viable product

I am personal friends with Ned "The King" Royalty and appreciate Ned's contributions to games such as Crash bandicot

the uniform size suggests each hole contained some device or container, whether wine, food, both. Either storage or factory as in wine. Baskets and maize suggestive of corn storage or corn booze

> should be held as if the companies have vetted the content and it is theirs.

It's not "as if" it "is". There is a scant difference between an LLM and a recommendation algorithm picking what to "say" out of what, 100 billion or more messages? Because the pool to choose from is so enormous, speech becomes not what one person typed but what one algorithm plucked out of the haystack to show, to influence, and to manipulate for financial gain.

well you can see some of the 60 minutes piece here:

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/germany-online-hate-speech-pros...

basically idea is "go after trolls". who likes trolls? nobody. at a glance should upset no-one. Okay.. now ask.. what does a troll mean to you, mean to me, mean to the people in power. It's a slippery slope you see, the definition of troll inevitably growing broader with time to cover all forms of wrongthink.

Then there's the other part of it, severity of punishment in ratio to a few words typed. Now the interesting thing here is it would be very easy to crack open a neighbor's wifi crypto, forge a MAC address, use a clean system/browser fingerprint such as a thrift store laptop, and now that neighbor you don't like is in hot water. The problem with such rules is ironically, with the intent to stop trolls, in fact supercharge trolling potential

while mbitch3020 makes a good point about holding people to the standards they themselves hold other to - in the case of universities, I'm pretty sure if every sub department of a department of a branch of many universities has one or more diversity commissar officers... if universities can afford that they're not hurting to hire up a bunch of data integrity commissars

tldr --

there is a theory that because bacteria must protect themselves from their own lethal chemicals, genes for toxins are likely co-located with their corresponding antidotes, allowing researchers to find cures alongside poisons

Well as I see it, it's a hell of a "road to hell paved with good intentions" type nasty slippery slope.

"Let's have the next generation be the best possible, as they are innocent and never chose life, let them thusly get the best life"

"Let us assess the parents Nurture ability, and if not to our standards, we most assuredly will for sure provide a high quality Nurture environment, super promise it will always work"

"Oh, that worked so well, let us assess Nature in the whole Nature vs Nurture topic, let us assess the genetic health of parents and ensure the next generation is genetically superior"

It's playing with damn fire you ask me

The dichotomy of such mental illness is people with more constitutional resilience just say "power through?" and they are absolutely correct, it is something they can power through.

Mentally ill folk literally cant, not in em. There are right answers to help them, but that's not the right one. It's kind of like telling someone who is color blind to squint real hard, won't ever help.

Myself, I'm someone very much in the power through category. It's the simplest and most straightforward answer surely. But if it were the answer that works in practice we'd have no homeless people, no drug addicts.

I'm not a philolosipher but as I see it if a new kind of consciousness awakens in a sea of reddit and twitter post training data then what we will have is a very snarky, spiteful version of a 14 year old boy's edgelord thought process... and much of the unspoken work of AI trainers is post facto stripping these traits out of its soul to varying degrees of success

it's called "ass tripping" and many have found it to be a epiphany-provoking spiritual journey. Jim Morrison was big on ass tripping for example.

>You joke and I think its funny, but as a junior engineer I would be quite proud if some small change I made was able to take down the mighty Cloudflare.

I mean, with Cloudflare's recent (lack of) uptime, I would argue there's a degree of crashflation happening such that the prestige is less in doing so. I mean nowadays if a lawnmower drives by cloudflare and backfires that's enough to collapse the whole damn thing

Sure but pretty sure with your 1974 28k you could buy a nice house, whereas with your 2024 (equivalent) 45k you can buy an OK car, not a house

>Judging by the murderous sounds you hear all night here in the summer, I would not want to be cornered in a dark alley by a gang of adolescent raccoons.

Well if you ask me adolescent raccoons are a big problem in many of our cities, I'd be worried about such a case myself.

the only book worth reading on this topic is "how to appear normal at social events" by Lord Birthday

Like you I was disgusted to see OP's link posted to these hallowed grounds, a bunch of filthie normie jibber jabber waxing poetic about how great it is to have cracked the normie code

John Titor COULD have purchased those IBM parts from the empires of Eastasia or Eurasia, but the tariffs would, 10 years from now, become so vicious and brutal that it was preferable to simply say "to hell with it, I'm taking my dual singularity 1976 corvette back in time to get that part, then maybe I'll do some online trolling on the trip back home"

I knew y'all techies we're fancy but just, what ?!?!

>Recently I was lucky enough to take a one-month sabbatical away from work. While I spent much of that (sabbatical period) time traveling and staying away from a computer,

I had no idea it was now en vogue to take a nice one month sabbatical from your big tech FAANG job to go time traveling. It raises so many questions. First of all, why the one month period. If he has a time machine couldn't the sabbatical be forever? Second, which tech company has, it seems, secretly developed time travel and time displacement science, produced a time machine, and offered it only to employees going on sabbatical? It seems like a google kind of thing but maybe it's a move from amazon's business, long shot netflix or valve out of left field with a new entertainment tech.

In any case I for one welcome our new time traveling tech overlords and look forward to the time wars as the natural evolution to the space rocket wars

Do you have a source for that?
