Maybe they've never seen the original? It is a bit deep fried here, but that would still make me feel old.
Absolutely. My spouse looks at me like I'm crazy for putting black blankets on the floor in front of all the south-facing windows, but it's a noticeable difference in those rooms. I also keep the leftover pasta and kettle water out until it's cooled down instead of dumping hot water down the drain. Helps to avoid running the humidifier too.
That's true. I accidentally downvote things constantly, but immediately upvote if I notice. How many have I missed? How many upvotes were lost to network traffic even though the downvote made it through? How many people have wasted a portion of their only finite life being upset because my finger was one pixel too far right?
I understand getting upset if you made a good faith argument and it gets a ton of downvotes. I still think it's valid, but I understand why others would disagree.
But people here (and on Reddit) are way too sensitive to them. I have seen too many comments here with "Edit: why am I getting downvoted? Explain yourselves" when it's got 10 upvotes and 2 downvotes.
Some trolls downvote everything. Some people have bots that downvote everything. Some people have bad reading comprehension and will downvote things they would agree with. Once you assume a baseline level of negativity you'll stop taking things personally and start enjoying interactions more.
This is obviously funny, but I think the end result will be a bit sad. Spammers will (or already are) start to use similar AI programs to cold call people, then transfer to the scammer if they've got a live one. Eventually we're just going to be heating the Earth so that invisible chatbots can have conversations no human will ever hear.
Very cool. Can't wait to see more.
Was this originally a sketch of neurons? If I squint it looks just like 'em, complete with receptors on the left.
Honestly such a cute and fun show. It also does a good job of highlighting the culture difference. Not that the Japanese parents expect their kids to get across town on their own, but they do expect their infrastructure to be pedestrian-friendly and safe.
Every time people ask me where the architecture is heading I think, "How should I know? I just graduated; someone above me will figure that out." Then I realize it's been almost 20 years and I am actually expected to know how databases work and I am one of the most senior in the department. I feel like this goose a lot.
That's a roast
There are already a few notifications, banners, and pop-ups while presenting in Teams. If you're really lucky the presenter could instinctively click "Accept" without reading it, but it seems more likely they'd notice and verbally ask what you want it for.
