I wanted to come here to post ideas that I'd like to put out through the ether(net).

I'm happily married, decidedly dull, and read less than I write, and write less than I watch (tv).
I prefer Shrek’s cousin, who avoids or neglects duties or responsibilities: Shirk.

”How much you want for ‘em?”

“Going rate is $400k.”

“Idk man, sounds to me like you’re being a little…shellfish.”

“The price is now $500k.”

I think, in taking away the human agency of this story, they’re trying to “sell” people on this autonomous tool that can improve everyone’s lives, while forgetting at the end of the day it’s just a tool.

And like every tool, it can be used for good or bad ends, but people are the drivers.

I strongly believe the “crawl, walk, run” of all tech starts with understanding the framework - and that is what’s missing from AI.

“Use AI to help you code!”
But understanding what code does is fundamental.

Also, if you think coding can change poor data/process, have I got bad news for you…

Preview of what will happen during a natural disaster, like say, oh I don’t know, an earthquake…

But earthquakes never hit the state most famous for having earthquakes, right?

Mine is called, “Deflated”, and it’s about my meteoric rise to great heights and eventual fall from grace while working in the Hot-Air balloon industry.

Not much of a page-turner, only my mom bought a copy…

INVENTOR OF THE CARWASH: answer the question

I worked in a place that had metal ashtrays built into the shelf below the mirror in the bathroom. So you could park your butt while you evacuated.

Unsurprisingly, the whole office (shag carpet and all) smelled like a 1970s dog track. It had all the warmth and ambiance of one too.

I could be totally wrong, I’m certainly not an expert in the field, but I’m 99% sure this is how zombies are created…

I guess they wanted him to die high? Better than dying via “induced regurgitation”, but it does make you wonder what would have happened if they didn’t try any of that and just let him be sick in peace…

“Hmm, fever, you say? Run, my young assistant, and fetch the laxatives!”

I guess, eventually, the snake will eat itself, and then as it’s choking, good ole’ American tax dollars will give it an additional 80 feet of snake…

They tried, but he misunderstood it to be all about memes, and then he just kept talking about memes, and how big his memes are, until he fell asleep…

Quinbus Flestrin strikes again.
This is really sad, the “double-edged sword” of the internet age - we learn about so many things, just not how to preserve and distantly cherish them.
