I hate that AI has made me approach cute animal videos with an air of suspicion. I resent having to harden my heart to the possibility of an unlikely friendship between a very large dog and a very small one

Imagine if we took all the funding we gave to AI for one year and gave it to someone like dolphin speech experts or primatologists or blacksmiths or something. Like just try it and see what happens

Gnostics:

ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market.

This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

Grass is the only line where the final evolution isn't disappointing compared to the middle stage.

Oh, makes sense. Thanks for explaining.

I completely understand the browser hours, and have 500+ hours in it myself, but what was the secret appeal of the 3ds camera?

Every time I see a social media meme about being an introvert, which is at least once a week, I think about how the modern conception of introversion was popularized by a book by a woman who worked on Wall Street who felt that she was so different and special compared to her coked up male colleagues

Feels like some fields are big on citing only by precedence, but don't realize there's another side which is NOT citing the work that is outdated, misleading, had poor methods in the first place, or otherwise made choices an author considers poorly done. I exercise this judgment constantly

Expert panel will determine AGI arrival in new Microsoft-OpenAI agreement New deal extends Microsoft IP rights until 2032 or until AGI arrives.

This is sounding more and more like the Council of Nicea who meet behind closed doors and poke the chatbot until it says it feels something.

12:01 ÷73 + r/AskAnthropology •• What is the oldest lullaby or nursery rhyme that... 11 upvotes • 1 comment As far as the earliest we know of, it's another Babylonian tablet, about 4000 years old and most often known as Little Baby in the Dark House. We don't have the music for it, but again, the BBC article has a good go at describing some commonalities of the music that tends to accompany lullabies, so that might inspire you. The rough translation for that Babylonian lullaby, by the way, is: Little Baby in the dark house You have seen the sun rise Why are you crying? Why are you screaming? You have disturbed the house god. 'Who has disturbed me?' says the house god. 'It is the baby who has disturbed you! 'Who scared me?' says the house god. 'The baby has disturbed you, the baby has scared you, making noises like a drunkard who cannot sit still on his stool. He has disturbed your sleep! 'Call the baby now, says the house god. • 4 Reply A & Vote & Join the conversation

Deep dive into some specific old building and its history.
Possibly even the buildings that previously occupied that plot of land, though 'the plot show' is less catchy and slightly misleading.

When I first played the game as a teen, it genuinely felt like the game was breaking some rule with its soundtrack. Games back then just really didn't have music like that.

'The World Ends With You' is still a banger.

A less well-known favorite of mine is 'Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes'. It's a wonderful little puzzle RPG game.

"z²+1 is never zero for complex z" at this point it's just trolling, isn't it

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

It's most useful if you split arguments into separate lines - for example in a mutate() - and then start commenting out parts of the call.
Normally, you would need to juggle around the commas, so whichever argument is currently last doesn't have one. But with this, you skip that bit of friction.

The dplyr functions are just like all written to be robust against extra commas as a convenience thing.

pleased to announce that there seems to be a passive-aggressive conflict roiling the august pages of Cooks Illustrated, Fall Harvest recipes edition. allow me to explain:

Build Fighters is fun. It's set in a world where Gundam exists as beloved fictional media, but fights using your favorite merch figurines are instead the most important sport in the world.

Someone on linkedin asked "what problem are you solving" with research. The problem of joy man. the problem of I like to know how things work. The problem of we have to tell the stories about all this or we'll go mad, won't we? The problem of someone needs to feel heard. Haven't you felt it??

While this may be obvious to some players, Cataquacks resemble Wiggler segments that have come to life. This is likely intentional due to them originating in Gelato Beach in Super Mario Sunshine, where the antagonist is a Wiggler.

unlike others i enjoy the lack of 3d pokemon voice acting. its a fitting design decision reflecting pokemon's take on our modern life that all the people try to scream but nobody can hear it and nothing comes out

it's interesting how the statements "more worthwhile games release in a year than one person could ever possibly hope to cover" and "video games now take way too fucking long to make" are simultaneously both true.

you'd think they cancel out, but they somehow don't, at all.

suddenly extremely lamenting the lack of git in my profession because there's a wordpress page i got tasked with updating and what the fuck do you MEAN you can't merge drafts into the page that the draft is based on? what the fuck is the point it being a draft then!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????
