Baby are you in the mood for a little romance? Well for starters I can pour some chocolate pudding down your pants. And then attach electrodes to your brain and watch you dance

Astronomy/astrophysics might actually be a good candidate for extensive ai usage. Every astronomer collects massive amounts of data then only ever analysis a small fraction of that. Running big data analysis on that could help a good bit.

I could shine my pennies or clean my lava lamp. I could spend all day in my underwear watching "Ernest Goes To Camp"

Of note, Gen X folks are really entering the age at which their kids would be at the point of cutting off parents. And historically Gen X folks tend to be worse than boomers.

Birds, parasailing, vehicle traffic on taxiways, GA pilots.

Glonzo: why won’t the democrats propose a solution?

Technically I work with my wife so I dunno if she'll like the idea that we can't date anymore.

Well yeah, it's made for basic cable production. No nudity but extra violence. (id really rather the opposite)

This looks like an unauthorized cheap knockoff Starship Troopers prequel.

Can I look that up at work?

stopping humans from having sex seems like a difficult task.

I mean, I got a bunch of spam text/calls over the last few days and it’s not that I’m a target.

I mean if you are dumb and ignore the differences, yes they are the same. I’d also say that the goal matching funds was bad. That would just lead to more of duvergers law.

000

Some were, some weren’t. Like the bad ballot design was under their control. The bad press, not. That doesn’t remove agency from Nader who specifically chose to help elect bush.

100

Yes it turned out that there were a few other really contingent things happening. But that’s why we shouldn’t make presidential elections the place to pursue relatively trivial electoral goals.

000

Yeah like one of the necessary steps for Bush to win in 2000 was specifically for Nader to campaign with the goal of tipping the election to bush.

I mean, it’s really similar to the opposition to solar farms. And Johnson has no problem capitalizing on that.

Doubling down on kashi because I found a sale and wondering what the excitement is.

My first thought was what does granola have to do with this, but I’m not the target market obviously.

Are your large language models too slow and expensive? Do your small language models lack the capabilities you need to complete your tasks? Here at Goldilocks.ai we are building the first Medium Language Model, and we're hoping it'll be just right for your needs.

Trump 1 could kinda be described like that. But Trump 2 is absolutely not that.

Create an unnecessary sequel by adding an -er to a book’s title. The Newer Testament. Though, Holier Bible also has potential.

But also, is the releasing rabid cougars a metaphor or a new RFK jr program?

Sure, but if you buy a total market index, it’s betting that the economy will grow.

Gambling is by definition zero sum either you make money or the guy running the bets makes money. Stocks are betting that the economy as whole grows.

If its a 270 area code, the operator does also say he does pet location in the Facebook page.

I have considered purchasing a drone with thermal imaging for that purpose yes. I'd consider it a legit function within hunting.

Sure imma judge people for that. But unless we’re in a coffee shop it probably doesn’t matter. That said, I use a travel mug with a sealing lid.

Yeah, I can't make heads or tails of that.

Are iced coffees a proxy for gender?

I'm a bit confused about why iced coffee in specific is the trigger.

Sesotho Web : Nouns and Noun classes

Not a speaker of isiXhosa, but I kinda know a similar neighboring language. Pronouns were all about one vs many and there were like 18 different classes of nouns. www.sesotho.web.za/nouns.htm

I mean, Nelson Mandela grew up speaking isiXhosa which has a very large number of genders.

But highly effective against severe disease and long covid.

See, this is again why I don’t take masking (as an always on approach) that seriously. Masking to stop omicron variants just isn’t very effective. Whereas vaccination is still pretty effective.

Only loosely related to the dumpster fire discourse of the day: Damn the covid shot hurts this year. I even went with the Moderna small shot which was supposed to have lower reactogenicity, but my shoulder is out.
