I feel a laminar airflow which runs in parallel to the turbulent liquid flow to draw it into the receptacle would reduce waste.

What happens if you urinate through those bladeless Dyson fans?
Crash vehicle.
Profit?
I learned quite a lot in the process, mostly that I need to think in tiny systems. I was expecting I could feed the hardware environment into the LLM and prompt for an output. I was not expecting that I need to instruct the LLM to deliver code that was human-edit/readable.
I'm appreciating the advice in the comments to this post.
I enjoy the "what does this thing do" of farm implements.

2chan, 4chan, and similar seem to be a perfect example. Users rapidly creating original content, riffing on previous posts, and introducing new content is like a factory that accidentally creates a viral meme through trial and error.
What are you trying to understand by asking this question?
I really enjoy when someone fresh out of college asks a question and a retiree engineer/technician/manager joins the discussion with personal knowledge. The insight and experience here, pending the AI slop takeover, is what you usually find only on very topic-specific forums.
The text-only formatting, culture of contributing to the conversation, and simplicity (read: not shiny and new), hopefully continue to keep out the cesspool of other internet at bay as long as possible.
The mention of Megalosaurus was jarring. My imagination placed this within a gloomy late-Victorian period and the mention of giant lizard caused mental association to very unrelated content for the rest of paragraph. I think a Wooly Mammoth waddling up the hill would make for a better picture.
On another note: What are horse blinkers?

The spontaneity of gathering your friends to dance on the beach, use a private warehouse after hours, or host a house party that went past 2AM, was now risking police showing up and handing out fines.
Regulation is the fastest way to kill anything unique and valuable.

Meat-gap. We have your back.
If you fail at job hunting, you end up homeless. And lonely.
1.Job hunting is dehumanizing: Most of the time you will receive no response to a carefully worded cover letter. There is no option to speak with a human, or point of contact. (I dub this /Throwing hope into the void and see what sticks/.)
2.Job hunting is primarily online. From searching job posts to application, the reach of an open position is literally world-wide.
3.Due to Covid, remote work is now in the zeitgeist, opening up remote work to many who otherwise wouldn't have considered it.
4.Digital tools for resume writing and bulk sending.
5.The stagnation of salaries, increased cost of living, and poor investment options has forced many into living paycheck to paycheck. In order to /get ahead/ the only option is to constantly seek new positions.
The deluge recruiters are feeling is merely the tip of a iceberg.
1. I want the knowledge/experience/anecdotes/opinions of others. 2. I want to share my own knowledge/experience/anecdotes/opinions with others. 3. Contributing low-bandwidth, high-quality* content is (hopefully) doing my small part in encouraging others to do the same.
My primary concern: You are providing a map of individual user interests over a period of time. This is feels like a violation of privacy to some and is outright dangerous to others.
Why? 1. People have many interests. The Marketing Manager likes birdwatching, Bollywood, hacking podcasts, amateur chemistry, traditional Ukrainian breadmaking, ASMR, erotic independent film, rock climbing, pole-dancing, gunsmithing, and horse racing. 2. People are public with some interests, and private with others. The degree of public vs. private disclosure can come from external pressure (ie: political oppression, public servant expectations) or internal motivation (ie: embarrassment, pride). 3. People change over time. The 27 year old Marketing Manager may want to distance themselves from their poor political comments as a student.
Where to now? If you stop work now, someone else will pick up where you left off. So how do make a system which balances the user AND allows you to continue?
1. Easy and simple opt-out option. 2. User profiles. Allow me to share /which/ interests are associated with me. I am a nuclear engineer by trade, but I'll be damned if I want to talk about it in my spare time. Let me opt-in to Birdwatching, and opt-out of nuclear engineering so those weirdos at work don't find me. 3. Limit the Time for association. Maybe that means you only 'connect' people with their comments in the past year as the Public default. Once the user connects with your system and has control over their online persona, then the user can decide what to show and for how long.
Future use? 1. Push this tool as an anonymity improvement tool, which also encourages meaningful conversations with people you want to connect with. 2. Feature: "We notice you posted for the first time to /r/bsdm with your /u/PepsiOfficialMarketing. Was this a mistake?" 3. Feature: "Our AI has scanned your recent posts. We have connected your writing style across two accounts and this may compromise the seperation of accounts. The following phrase: 'Do what thou does MFK!' was used to connect these accounts by our AI."

On behalf of the math-declined folks, I wish math articles had subtitles, references, and definitions built-in.
I wonder if a browser extension for Greek letter definitions would be possible?
Amazon (the website) is already littered with Featured(ads), Sponsored (ads), and questionable reviews. If the Prime option is not selected, the shipping time can be over 30 days. And I've purchased enough low quality products to know that price and quality are not related. I'm embarrassed by the time I've spent verifying quality, manufacturer reputation, price range is correct, it will arrive on time, and it performs as advertised.
The Prime Video interface is 40% designed around making me spend money on "rent or buy" and subscription services, rather than stuff I've already paid to watch.
Unsubscribing from Prime doesn't feel like losing-out on a service. It feels like pain relief from a capitalist hellscape.
"Like chiseled spam."
Crowsfeet wrinkled deeply as a wistful smile spread across her face.
Once people can be reliably replaced they will be.
One can only guess that cost, availability, or proficiency, of machines is still not matched by machines.
I love math, just can't seem to grasp it. Going on 40 years now....
1. Tell women how to live.
2. Take away personal agency.
3. Tar and feather anyone who supports gender beyond 'male' and 'female'.
4. Tell women how to live.
5. No pornography.
6. Financial incentives for large families. (Which, based on #4, also removes women from many long term careers.)
It's worth noting that if you're in the position of interviewing then you probably have 10+ /years/ of industry specific experience.
The applicant's prior ten years included 2 years of covid prison, a fractured high school experience, and learning basic life skills.
I recently used the Renia ProtoColle (Germany?) as a flexible CA glue and it exceeded expectations.
Bob Smith Industries also sells different viscosities and the thinnest stuff will wick nicely into a tight joint for modelmaking or styrene.
