Hey Beaverdale, There is going to be a candlelight vigil in support of Minneapolis at Tower Park at 7pm. I’ll be there because I just don’t know what else to do.

I thought the argument was to replace your workers with something less competent but will work for less than a human. now it’s replace your workers with something that’s less competent but will cost astronomically more than your workers.
OpenAI has absolutely zero ideas. They have no business. This is not a real business line and it’s so utterly vague and specious, I’m shocked at the credulousness to just print it without saying “there is no logical way this works of course” or talking about how the CFO of OpenAI is saying nonsense

Just for the record the best big chain fast food restaurant in town is the MLK / Hickman Burger King.

My partner wants to watch the gay hockey show and I said I would at least watch the first few episodes but I might not ... stick with it 😎

Sometimes people ask me why I don’t have tattoos “because you seem like you should”. And the reason is simple. At all points in my life 10 years ago me was a dipshit and I wouldn’t want to have his ideas permanently on my body.

It’s important to go back and see what American health was like before fortified bread. It wasn’t good.
California now requires corn masa flour to contain folic acid to reduce birth defects among Latinos. Public health officials have lauded these efforts, but some conservatives say it’s another form of government overreach.
California is adding a supplement to tortillas. RFK Jr. calls it ‘insanity’.

Hey scientists! Any recommendations for someone getting headaches from too much microscope work? Are there adapters that would let you see the contents on a larger screen?
