That's brilliant.
Poor guy. I sympathize with him more than is reasonable. A programmer sees his livelihood being taken by AI despite the difference in craft, care, and sense.

It seems so obvious when said, I just never saw it before.
The card sharp of crime
TIL The Joker's outfit was based on that of a card player! How could I have missed that?

“It's not for nothing that advanced mathematics tend to be invented in hot countries. It's because of the morphic resonance of all the camels who have that disdainful expression and famous curled lip as a natural result of an ability to do quadratic equations.” ― Terry Pratchett

Count your blessings?
You can generally film people in public spaces (streets, parks, public plazas) without consent, as there is no reasonable expectation of privacy there. You may also legally record police officers performing duties in public.
Just don't be a creep, ok?
Did you know?
If you point meta glasses or any camera at a person withoit getting permission first, that is often considered a form of aggression, and many people will respond in kind, ranging from no response to anxiety, fear, and even rage/physical violence in response.
Don't be a dick. Ask.

No noticeable downside yet.
I guess Google turned on AI for Trump's name again. I typed "how many lies has Trump told in the last 24 hours" and I guess they had to call in the robots to help. That *is* some heavy lifting.
So, I got a text from a PAC that was deliberately trying to misrepresent the the office stance of Virginia's new governor. No surprise, given that they just did a mailing citing jum crow laws trying to trick voters last week.

Yeah, I've worked out that I don't need 'em *at all* so they can just stay boycotted as far as I am concerned. They remain on my do not fly list.
Unless they become needed for a vital service I can't get elsewhere, why should people ever go back?
Wow, fantastic job with the opener!!
Fantastic!!
Sharp!
Little skunk looks like they stayed up late to run across the yard at 7 this morning

Slumber (7) was my best this time, out of practice!
Funny how I knew who you were talking about without knowing what you were talking about.
Some folks i am glad not to have to hear from!
Glad i missed that trend. This is the only place ive even heard it referenced.
Something that I find maddening is that they just don't seem to care about the world around them. They view 47 as "just another blowhard."
I wouldn't mind if he was a doddering, racist doofus either, except for all the bombs, bullets, laws and things.
People needlessly *die* because of him.
What is your letterboxd?
Tell me more, please send brochure.
I am now on a new social network that is privacy focused, ad free, and a safe space to share. hey.cafe/r/scottobear
Let's see how it goes. Maybe these fine Canadians can help us.
See you there!
It really was. There were some weeks we didn't get the full amount, either because of a physical chore deficit, or a kid argument. :)
