i don't know anything about any of the folks involved in this situation, so this may not be relevant.

We wouldn't roast them if they, too, grew up in Kenya.

In 2021 folks would see the responses to covid and joke that zombie movies were unrealistic if they didn't have folks infecting themselves on purpose.

I feel like the universe never stopped teaching that lesson.

We get it, already. Some folks never stop farting around, no matter the danger.

Gonna give this a go...

Can confirm.

Google search finds links to what you're looking for online, but it doesn't generate content for you.

LLMs do, in fact, claim to generate content for you. If that content requires expert vetting in order to be useful, then LLMs aren't useful. Experts can already generate their own content.

Good, good. Links in response to.queries. So you're saying you wouldn't out random crap you find online into a paper w/o vetting it ... and this is meant to be a critique if Google search?

Of course, it so happens that LLM can't even generate links to (real) articles consistently.

Google search doesn't actually generate output,.friend.

ffs.

You'll never convince me the man has an inner life.

Groups are weird. In British English, I think you'd be right, but in American English it goes the other way.

Or maybe I have it backwards.

Anyway, one of them always treat the name of a group as if it's singular, the other as if it's always plural.

So, "Pink Floyd are..." vs "The Eagles is..."

yikes.

yes, good call.

I keep bringing weird little games to the table. Yesterday, after a session of Desperation Engine, I asked my players if they'd prefer something more conventional, like a dungeon crawl.

"I prefer this," they said.

Me too, but I bet I'll keep feeling like I ought to be offering dungeon crawls.

🚨VALUABLE CONTEXT ALERT🚨

That this account (by Jay, who has a vested interest in portraying herself well) is still somehow fairer to all parties; less muddled around numbers and chronology; and *less editorialised* than the initial journalistic scoop says a lot about how this story was handled.

a comment from will in the NEOPETS RPG: if you give players a stack of dynamite, they're going to explode neopets. it's creating a possibility space where neopets end up painting the room (when all i wanted to do was paint the neopets)

a comment from will in the neopets rpg google doc: I think when you give me a hammer (the rules of this game) i'm going to swing at nails (kill neopets).

i am a professional editor. i come highly recommended. mind if i step inside your comments-on google doc for the NEOPETS RPG

It reminds me, too, of college, unfortunately.

All the ways in which I'm not an ass right this moment are hard-fought victories forged through lots and lots of experience in being exactly that sort of ass.

They were in exactly the same scene as us. They went to the same parties; they shopped at the same local, crunchy grocery stores; they did all the same lifestyle stuff we did. You absolutely could not have picked them out of a lineup that included them, my and my partner, and our friends.

A few years ago, my partner and I were active in several local farmer's markets and part of the "local growers" scene. We set up at the Bloomington Winter Market next to a couple we knew. They weren't super smart and were occasionally problematic, but they were sweet hippy folk sand had a couple of/

Speaking from personal experience, a whole lot of white folks my age go through most of their lives convinced that any reasonably sensitive observer ought to be able to tell they're not racist just by looking at them.

Expecting poor people to ever be good at anything is oppression, apparently.

Famously, poor people have never before produced good art. 🤡
