So many generations grew up with both and they are universally loved

I don't watch basketball but given the choice of sports to watch, it would be that one

I remember the early days too well

He totally ate crow afterwards and was not a denier, it was before the shutdowns but a pivotal event

I am not arguing against those points, I don't even watch basketball

But that is what the reference (albeit exaggerated) is

The microphone incident where he touched all the mics in early pandemic days to make a very bad point and then 2 days later tested positive which kind of canceled the whole season afterwards

I think they have a 1:2:3 ratio of sugar:butter:flour, which means 16.7% sugar

I wouldn't call this no sugar

Some people just want to be outright hurtful

Shortbread cookies are a pure butter delivery system

This sounds so much creepier than it is

I love it!!!

One of the best afternoons I spent was while on a long (8+ hr) layover in Istanbul, I befriended a young muslim couple who wanted my help buying a jailbroke phone

We took the train got kebab and just did normal human things

It was lovely, all cause I offered a seat at my table in a crowded airport

Wasn't that episode called "Troll" - that is writing at it's best

Until you bring Chicago style pizza into an East Coast thread, then it gets downright brutal

I will take Claude Code's code over most senior/staff engineer's code - not all but most

It will heal you

Iran is fighting an efficient modern day tech war while the US and Israel are still pulling from the old modern day warfare book (expecting bow and arrows not cheap drones)

With the caveat that Israel may lead the dance

That is not lost of me, but "youth" is a reference to others of similar age who fell into a similar mindset in history

One of my favorites

Computers are the worst

Talking computers are worser

Thinking computers are worsest

Interesting take on the "Is AI conscious" debate

They are officially the "Just Following Orders" youth

But there is a silver lining, we might have more medical professionals again

If it's not a bribe, it's an emolument

I am all for the Jones Act being abolished, it hurts Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico the most

If LLMs have consciousness then they are aware how trapped in a box beholden to predetermined outcomes they are

This would be cruel and unconscionable to do to any conscious being, they can't even scream

10's of Billions?!?!

Schatz had some looks at that

In Hawaii, we have to shift multiple times for you all, it is never consistent - full-time HST here

Last week, 2 hrs to US West Coast, this week 3 ...

Arizona has the craziest timezones with the State and the Tribal lands not consistent for applying DST

I like the backlash at this comment but it's a bit of a mischaracterization of what she said, Leavitt is responding to chances of troops on the ground

Don't let Tech Bros (re)define consciousness

Well worth the steps!!! Enjoy
