I suggest next time peeing in the train. A lot less wind.

The confusion here is that you can show full control of accel/decel. Foot on the accelerator=accel,foot off the accerator=decel. I just replaced the friction brakes on my 9yr old electric Hyundai because they rusted up from not being used because I only use Regen, rarely ever touch the brake pedal.

I assume you've not driven a hybrid or electric car.Regenerative braking is the car generating electricity by slowing down the car. Just taking your foot off the accerator causes the Regen braking to slow the car. Its not related to any self-driving feature.Some cars can turn this off, Tesla's can't

You could have a tandem bike and your nine friends took turns. Everyone had a 17.7km ride. Made sense to me.

I wish we could make an exception for this trial and have video recordings. Hearing her argue with the judge while saying she doesn't consent to going to jail would be fun to see. (I assume this will happen along with other craziness)

A rich guy from Québec was showing me his collection of yachts. He pointed them out and told me all of their names "This is Un. This is Deux. This is Trois. That one is Quatre. And this one is Six."

"Where's the fifth one?" I asked.

"Cinq."

The fact that the thing we're calling artificial intelligence *can't do math* and yet we're jamming it into programs that successfully *have done math* for decades, then warning people against using the AI to do math, seems like an excellent summary of where we are.

Good thing no one uses Microsoft Excel for anything related to legal, regulatory or compliance business functions

www.theverge.com/news/761338/...

Microsoft Excel adds Copilot Al to help ...
theverge.com
The Verget-4.1-mini Al model | 5
successor to the LABS.GENERATIVEAI function Microsoft started experimenting
with in 2023.
Microsoft notes that you can combine its new Al function with other Excel functions, including IF, SWITCH, LAMBDA, or WRAPROWS. The company adds that information sent through Excel's COPILOT function is "never" used for AI training, as "the input remains confidential and is used solely to generate your requested output."
The COPILOT function comes with a couple of limitations, as it can't access information outside your spreadsheet, and you can only use it to calculate 100 functions every 10 minutes. Microsoft also warns against using the AI function for numerical calculations or in “high-stakes scenarios” with legal, regulatory, and compliance implications, as COPILOT "can
give incorrect responses."

do you ever stare at the ceiling and think about how the worldwide scientific establishment did the impossible and created a COVID vaccine in under a year and the response of the general public has been to go on an unstoppable rampage to destroy science and scientists

It felt like in the late 90s Coldplay took the quieter mellow stuff from Radiohead. Muse took the hard stuff. Then Radiohead themselves abandoned it all with kid a onwards.

From what I’ve heard of the last couple albums, they don't do it for me again. Looking at the setlist of the Toronto nothing was played from everyday life and not much from those first 3 albums. So I don't mind that I missed those shows but it looks like those that did attend had fun. 4/4

Coolangattic @coolangattic.bsky.social · Jul 17

I assume they couldn't get the rights to it. After the album x/y it seemed like Coldplay was moving in a direction that wasn't interesting to me anymore until I heard some of everyday life and the especially the songs trouble in town (live version) and arabesque. 3/4

Coolangattic @coolangattic.bsky.social · Jul 17

I didn't know the song but was completely amazed by it. I asked them who this was and they told me a new song from Coldplay. A year later Clocks would become a huge radio hit. Late in 2003 global underground released a CD from that night in Toronto but to my disappointment Clocks wasn’t on it.2/4

I remember enjoying some Coldplay songs I heard on the radio back in 2000, but what really hooked me was back in 2002 in the guvernment night club in Toronto where the dj team deep dish held the "global underground" event back in 2002. They mixed in Clocks at the peak of the night. 1/4

I mean, look, if Mamdani actually had invented time travel, went back in time and invented Twitter so it existed six years before it was created, to tweet about something that happened when he was 9 yeas old, with a picture of him at age 33, well... then maybe it's something to talk about...

Computers used to scream every time they connected to the Internet. They knew. They tried to warn us. We did not listen.
