Has @hankgreen.bsky.social or @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social ever talked about their content creation strategy for Vlog Bros? Do they have a list of topics they know they want to talk about "someday"? Do they carry around a notebook and collect ideas throughout the week. #EnqiiringMinds
Happy MAR10 day!
Dunedin, where are your nerdfighters at?

Connections was the same for us today. Could have sworn the Blue was the purple category! π
Happy Waitangi Day Aotearoa | New Zealand!
So does that mean two zebras could have the same pattern by chance, and then I have to ask can two people have the same fingerprints by chance?
Yes, everyone needs life insurance, at least so your final arrangements are taken care of, if not giving significant others a little cushion to grieve and figure things out. Especially those with neighbors putting water on their sidewalks in freezing temps. How's that working out?

Guys, credit karma thinks I need more life insurance but I think I have enough life insurance already. Does credit karma know something that I don't know?
If hydrogen powered cars produce water as a byproduct, is there any way that water could be produced by the hydrogen and oxygen in the atmosphere interacting with the lighting during a thunderstorm?
Maybe. Or the people focusing and talking about the algorithms are the ones affected by this, whereas our podunk profiles with 20 real followers, that we use to just say what we want, likes be damned, don't really care about how we are saying anything, because garnering attention is not the point.
Less stops over the Atlantic count for that?
Toss up between Cialdini and John Green, but I think Green's is a take you won't find anywhere else, whereas there are a bunch of people peddling influence/leadership ideas.
If any tech deserves to be discussed complexly, it is this and what comes after what we have today (the general idea of information teaching itself). And this has been one of the most disappointing parts of AI to meβ(that's my genuine emdash) the lack of nuance coming from voices I admire.
Not trying to minimize the danger, disruption, or complete displacement that may/is likely/definitely happening, but I don't hear nuance from many on the subject of AI, and to me it is one of the most if not the most gray technologies we will ever encounter.
This is coming from someone in IT, who, when it is all said and done (if society doesn't figure out its way to a universal income) has probably been most harmed. Very hard to say __ hey I think that software you built uses the algorithm I came up with, that no one can see, without litigation.
Not to mention the millions of people with some sort of "limiting" factor that can now use tech in a responsible way to help them do what they have never been able to do before.
When it comes down to it, it is the responsibility of the user of the tech to ensure someone isn't being harmed.
I think there are also people that have always wanted to make money from their own art, made without AI, that just needed some guidance on how to get the business part started that are also benefiting from the tech.
I think there are pros and cons.
I think it is leveling the field for a lot of folks and I think in a lot of ways, it's just like any other tech --plagiarizers are going to copy, whether they have tracing paper, a projector or a room full of people making copies of work for them.
But the bigger reason that you should write and make art, is that your work is someone else's respite.
You don't know who they are. They may be someone in the future. But if you have escaped into a book, or a painting, or a TV show... Someone created that.
You can do that for someone else.

Do we know how the popcorn button is supposed to work? Can we find brands that deviate from that? Do not try and fail when you can avoid trying.
Kind of interesting re: the sound-method patents. Curious to see if the 3 microwaves you've tried fall into one category.

Will there be a recording for those who can't make it?
Did you sleep better though? Or was it sleepy tea?
