This is why I don’t believe we’ve got agi or are close to asi — it doesn’t seem like a matter of scaling. I am an idiot though, so idk

Every chart looks like this, with America weathering every storm better than peers and accelerating out of ruts better than peers. How? And can they keep it up?
Tweet: Until 2015, Canada and the U.S. were on the same growth track. Then Canada suddenly fell behind.
What the fuck happened to Canada in 2015???

if a man wore a sports bra as boxers how would he wear it
Mirrored sketches of a featureless man (except his nether region) wearing a sports bra as boxers.

In one drawing he is wearing the boob part on the front. In the other he is wearing the back part on the front. In both his gentleman sausage is visible.

My first job was as a Christmas temp at a department store. They told us to wear a watch on the shop floor as we weren’t allowed our phones. I went to a place called £5 watches to buy one. Every watch cost £5.

On my first day a guy asked where I got my watch, I said from *shopping centre*.

He said “oh yeah, £5 watches?”

I was embarrassed by how cheap my watch was but couldn’t think of another place that sold watches so I said “yeah but it cost more than £5”

Nope. 100% not true.

Elon:
Well, then, I stand corrected 😂

was a real thrill to meet trump. the highlight was probably when we all took turns to share the reply images that we made and never shared because we realised we were just making the same joke again but completely butchering it by trailing off beyond recognition towards the end
The photo of trump & his cronies on a plane eating mcdonald’s. They all have grayscale plush toys of a man in a black t-shirt. Don Jr has been replaced by me.

The man at the back has face of the plush toys. Is it a mask? Is it a full helmet like a mascot? Is it just what Brian looks like irl? I don’t know, I don’t remember why I did it.

My 2c: - "Include if" is implied, from a normal user's perspective they're just defining the condition, not looping through posts - Posts being passed is implied That said I've obv not thought about it as much as you so maybe I've simplified too far
Diagram of how a feed builder ui could look. On the left is a block that says "all posts" on the right is a block that says "feed". Inbetween is a block labelled "If" which has a condition inside.
