man if only there was a way to link the changing climate to climate change

NaN naan Jeremy that’s insane

the death metal bands have been trying to warn us for so long, just no one can understand what they’re saying

I dunno man if I saw a donkey eating figs I’d find that quite the rib tickler

and we have, as a society, yet to condemn more guilty than innocent people to the death sentence.

if educated

I mean everyone was educated if they were in school after 1947 in the UK, which is where the idiom you use comes from.

Many British accents drop /h/ as accent is no longer a certain indicator of class, plus, code switching is a thing. I consider myself pretty well educated and will drop my aiches in most contexts except formal.

there aren’t that many, if you’re talking specifically LLMs, but ML+AI is more than LLMs.

Not a defence or indictment of either side, just people tend to confuse the terms “LLM” and “AI”

I think there could be worth in AI for identification (what insect in this, find the photo I took of the receipt for my train ticket last month, order these chemicals from lowest to highest pH…) - but LLMs are only part of that stack - the input and output - which isn’t going to make many massive breakthroughs week to week.

I have a great deal of job security by not being a software engineer and knowing “how to code”

they love me at my job in supply chain b2b marketing because I can build an API connector to the DoT database, and build a simple savings calculator in WordPress that connects to hubspot and Salesforce, or I can parse 20 csvs and exclude all duplicates in python…

all low level stuff but if you don’t know what a variable even is it seems like magic

I also learned on manual in Europe and switched to automatic when I moved to the US because it’s the only option.

i like driving while being able to rest one arm out the window, or sip from a drink or something.

If I need to quickly accelerate out of a busy turning I put it into Sport mode and turn Eco Mode off

I’d be surprised if Ukraine isn’t feeding Trump false info to see if Russia reacts to it

that they love to committ war crimes in the name of ideological victories seems pretty relevant

it was purchased by the southern baptists in 1954 from the Anglican church and returned to them in 1981, the name comes from that period.

It was founded as the only Christian hospital in 1882 following the need for medical intervention in the region (what was then the Ottoman empire) following the Anglo-Egyptian war.

I built an API connector for work (I’m a hobbyist, not a pro) to download what is the most common cargo transported by trucking companies from the DoT database. Everyone complained because they had to enter the company names correctly into a CSV as it wouldn’t accept typos or do fuzzy matching, nor could it automatically determine which was the head office of a company, only return a list of all of the offices.

who do you think you are I am

I did. Luckily there were points where it was shit enough to be able to leave without looking back.

I beat The Black Heart, Atheon, Crota, Oryx, Siva, Xol, Ghaul, Calus, Riven, Nezerac, Savathun, and The Witness, plus AlakHul, Atraks, Sepiks, Taniks, the Forsaken Baron, a bunch of Vex Gatelords and Overminds… I rediscovered 3 Dark Subclasses plus a fourth Light one and then merged them, I became an Iron Lord, a Dregden and went to Osiris’ Lighthouse in D1 and D2, healed the Traveller (twice), I witnessed my own funeral in the Corridors of Time, bringing back Saint 14, I saved and killed Rasputin and Prince/Crow, became Taken and beat Sword Logic, Vex Simulations, and Nightmares themselves: including the real world that’s four entire realities I conquered and I communed with The Long Boi In The Soup. I saw the whole story through. Anything that happens now is of lesser concern, so I can leave.

For me the big mistake started with the Dreaming City: when the world first raid changed the game for other players- I wasn’t the main character any more and canonically all the raids and boss fights after that were done by other players, and mine (canonically even!) just fantasized about it pretending I was there. Even in the very last fight against the Witness, canonically, I was just one of hundreds of thousands in a faceless army that defeated it together.
