My powerbank just detects that it is connected to itself and does jackshit.

My fav is sweetened fruit tea or sweetened masala tea, tho at that point I'm just drinking hot fruit juice and a fancy sweet dairy drink.

I was gonna say I really enjoy tea, but then realized that my fruit tea with plenty of sugar probably doesn't fit the description xD

Yea, bitterness it a weird taste, I don't mind a hint of it, that can be interesting, but straight up bitter drinks are yuk!

Language models are literally incapable of reasoning beyond what is present in the dataset or the prompt. Try giving it a known riddle and change it so it becomes trivial, for example "With a boat, how can a man and a goat get across the river?", despite it being a one step solution, it'll still try to shove in the original answer and often enough not even solve it. Best part, if you then ask it to explain its reasoning (not tell it what it did wrong, that's new information you provide, ask it why it did what it did), it'll completely shit it self hallucinating more bullshit for the bullshit solution. There's no evidence at all they have any cognitive capacity.

I even managed to break it once through normal conversation, something happened in my life that was unique enough for the dataset and thus was incomprehensible to the AI. It just wasn't able to follow the events, no matter how many times I explained.

It's literally unreadable. Soo many outdated metaphors and weak self references and random conjectures that look important, but actually aren't. Besides the fact that different denominations cherry pick to establish their views, occasionally there are parts where they straight up can't agree what it's supposed to mean. The bible it self is proof that any supposed god is a major fucking asshole.

Aye, I'd compare it to pineapple pizza, in the sense that many very vocal people love to hate on it, but its inclusion in every god damn restaurant speaks volumes of its actual popularity.

Once on a trip with my classmates I ordered it and they all gave me shit of it. Well too bad I knew that everyone who happened to be present actually liked it, so I threw that right back at em! Nobody was saying shit after. People just learn that shitting on something is the social norm.

And then say "it's just a theory" to completely dismiss something they don't like.

Personally haven't encountered a game that wouldn't run, so as far as I'm concerned it runs anything. I'm not going to shed any tears over Fortnite.

Satire is dead. Sometimes it feels like these people intentionally pick the worst stereotypes and go way beyond just to stick it to people. I legit can't read satire no more, it's tamer than reality. At this point, the only way to satirize these people is to depict em as blood thirsty monsters with rabies and that's not fun, that's just vile.

22 here, the only device in my apparent rn featuring a CD or DVD drive is an old ass iMac my gf intends to gut and put a mac mini inside just for fun, aka, likely disabling the DVD drive :(

We also probably have an external DVD reader in some drawer...

Considering we have like 5+ laptops and 2 desktops here, I'd say that says it all.

I predominantly download my music from bandcamp and my gf mainly uses Spotify.

My company is very lenient with how I spend my time (as long as I'm somewhat in the office and get my work done, which I god danm do!) and it's absolutely amazing. Often before a big release I run out of work and since no one is tracking it, I can just work on optimizing/cleaning our code or fixing some UX issue. I mean what are people gonna complain about? Me not doing the work I already completed? If they ever start tracking us I'm jumping ship, our new team pushes out the best code this company ever had and if that's not enough, then nothing could be.

I'm also confused about this whole "constant meetings" thing. At work I have an analyst that does the vast majority of client communication for me. From how people talk about work, it makes me think "analysts" aren't a thing in other companies. My gf (also a developer) didn't even know what an "analyst" could be. Like seriously? I love that guy! Life would suck soo much without him. The only meetings I attend are technical or educational in nature. And our monthly team leader meetings, just because he wants to make sure everything is ok with us.

I legit stopped reading the onion (or any satire) because of this. Shit's not funny when this guy pulls off something worse a week later.
