  1. > That all of earth is round, comes not from direct observation (except for the very few people who have been in space).

    or anyone who's been in a plane?

  2. I'm hard stuck on fish probability 59% fml
  3. > I heard majority of the users are techies asking coding questions.

    Citation needed? I can't sit on a bus without spotting some young person using ChatGPT

  4. I’m not arguing against your basic point as I completely agree arriving on time is my own responsibility, but when I do what you suggest, i forget my house keys lol
  5. > since 100% of people already agree that you should never be afraid to ask basic but obviously important questions.

    You don’t have a great mental model of how most people think

  6. Breaking down muscle is good, not letting the muscle recover is bad

    Same kind of thing

  7. A week ago, I was looking for the name of a semi obscure late 90ies computer game. Google could not help me given the description i gave

    Described it to ChatGPT, and we had a back and forth where I explained why the games it suggested me weren’t right, it eventually found the correct game (Nocturne) and was able to explain to me that half of the things I remembered from the game were just plain wrong, and that’s why Google couldn’t find it

    ChatGPT helping me with my hallucinations, go figure

  8. It’s all good, I didn’t take your comment as an indication of how it actually functions in Canada. Just reacting to the implications of your examples
  9. > Where they can't afford the medication, or no medication seems to work, or they have an addiction problem and there just isn't any way for them to get into a treatment program

    I would consider two of these absolutely monstrous reasons to assist someone in killing themselves. A broken society opting into killing its citizens because it can’t be arsed with fixing itself is next level evil

  10. >If you sign out and view a user you can see their posts

    Only for prolific twitter users and only a random mishmash of 2+ year old tweets. Usually it just asks you to sign up

  11. It's a substack blog, there's no trickery going on. It just means she used https://jessicawildfire.substack.com/ until now
  12. record players are perfect
  13. It's a mistranslation of 'vil' => will, when 'vil' actually means "would like to"
  14. *wants to, not will
  15. This is the reason why I wear glasses now, it's not really fun to have your vision go blurry at random while biking
  16. Oh man, I completely forgot about that game.

    Absolutely loved it as a teen!

  17. where did you get the impression that i spend time hating people? I'm saying that you shouldn't normalise being a shitty person "because you have to be shitty to be great". There's tons of amazing artists that are generally known as being all around great people

    (I'm not even referring to fat mike here, I have no idea if he's a good person or not)

  18. nah, this is just lame apologia that normalises being a shitty person
  19. I enjoyed this 5 star review

    "Fun to play, keeps you on your toes! The only problem is that every once in a while, you have to completely uninstall restart your computer and then reinstall, that's the only way you can keep playing."

  20. > And these robo-taxis will be worse than public transport

    If you soil a waymo taxi, they can ban you from ever booking another one, the same cannot be said for public transport

    While I consider this somewhat dystopian, I do think it's pretty clear that they will be much cleaner than public transport for that reason

  21. > The essence if her claim is they were doing that for their stock options?

    Wasn't that extremely obvious at the time?

  22. Exactly as difficult as applying the taxes after sale...
  23. > I know it's more complicated than this

    it really really really isn't

  24. > a single failure in a startup doesn’t make someone an idiot

    Depends on the failure

  25. https://whereto.stream/movie/8810?provider=hbo

    Why does it claim that mad max 2 is streamable on hbo in denmark? Decided to watch the trilogy this weekend and had a laugh that only the first and the third was available here
