I’m pretty sure someone arranged the shells this way, the same way someone puts a sticker on a lightpole that says “eat the rich.” The kind of thing that exists somewhere in between instruction and wishing.

Comey saw it, thought it was neat, and posted it not knowing what it was.

Which is idiotic of an FBI director. But nothing more.

I kinda figured the H1B visas would be spared, since Elmo is a will known abuser of that program, along with most of silicone valley.

“are you made of sugar?” Is how I’m going to question the fortitude of people from now on

The Midwest…

Reason 475 to stop using those apps. Even if your driver doesn’t pick up multiple orders from the restaurant you ordered from, which was rare the last time I used them, they may still be doing multiple orders. Your food will be cold and smell weird.

Yeah but, let’s be honest, did anybody believe Pam Bondi was even capable of leading ducks to water, let alone an entire government agency?

Friendly reminder that every famine you’ve ever heard of was man made and completely avoidable.

You’ve convinced me.

You fools! You absolute bafoons and I will never be in the same place as the only thing 😉 is that you are a good person and I don’t know what to do with it but I can be the first 🥇🏆🏆🏆🏆 to do the first one of those who have been in the same place as the other day.

That system would just be automated cameras, no agent necessary.

Absolutely.

AI generated content was always going to leak in to the training models unless they literally stopped training as soon as it started being used to generate content, around 2022.

And once it’s in, it’s like cancer. There’s no getting it out without completely wiping the training data and starting over. And it’s a feedback loop. It will only get worse with time.

The models could have been great, but they rushed release and made it available too early.

If 60% of the posts on Reddit are bots, which may be a number I made up but I feel like I read that somewhere, then we can safely assume that roughly half the data these models are being trained on is now AI generated.

Rejoice friends, soon the slop will render them useless.

Go to your local big box store and find one of the aisles that’s got pallets loaded up on the upper shelves.

Those pallets are 48" square and the shelves are generally 36" tall though sometimes they’re taller.

A pallet of 100 dollar bills, stacked neatly and put in one of the 36" shelves would be about 125 million dollars.

You’d need 8 of them to get to a billion.

Fun fact, because of the sheer quantity of fucking people over Gates is guilty of in his time at Microsoft, we can assume that at least a handful of the people he screwed died prematurely as a direct result of Gates’ actions. Something about every 1% increase in unemployment sees an accompanying increase of 37,000 deaths by various means.

Bill Gates killed people, is what I’m getting at.

the ACLU Mobile Justice app does this

Holy shit they shut it down a month after dorito stain took office what the fuck

Princmeth Leah was on her way back to Tattoo Ln to reunite Chewy with Heroin Solo

They’re only 20. They’ll learn.

Got lots of 65 year old factory or construction workers, do ya? And I’m talking about laborers, not supervisors etc.

Yes.

The oldest guy on our seniority list has had one job his entire life, he’s 72. He refuses to retire. The entire first page of seniority is guys in their 60’s. To be clear, if they’re on the seniority list, they’re not supervisors, they’re machine operators, welders, paint line guys, and tradesmen.

I, at 40, am one of the younger people in the building.

We recently started sucking up as many students as we could for the trades jobs because of how dangerously close to retirement most of the workforce is.

These jobs are not nearly as bad as people think. It’s not construction, which absolutely can and does destroy bodies. Factory work is engineered around being ergonomic and safe. If for no other reason than there simply isn’t the workforce available to replace people that leave young. But there’s actually lots of reasons. It’s legally required, it’s watched closelt by more than one federal agency (at least it WAS…). The factory literally can’t make money if these guys are getting injured all the time, and it’s way easier to make something safe to do than deal with constant injuries.

You’d be surprised. Most industrial jobs are not all that physical anymore. I felt the same as you did at your age and I spent 20 years grinding jobs I absolutely hated because I too had no ambition coming out of high school. I ended up bouncing around call centers while trying to find something I enjoyed at college enough to be successful at, all the while being passed over by people who actually enjoyed what they were doing.

I’m a tool maker now, I do a little troubleshooting, a little machining, and my job is immensely satisfying. It’s not for everyone but that’s every job.

Honestly even if you’re opposed to industry, I wouldn’t bother with an expensive education until you have some idea of what you want to do. Find some place that’ll give you an entry level job and provide tuition reimbursement, get your core studies out of the way while you figure stuff out.

The one the fancy jewelry guys are worshipping?

😬 pretty easy to side with the Cardassians for someone like Trump…
