Putting up those dishes is going to be exhausting!
Or am I?
My wife does this, and I’m just like, “…wtf is your problem?”
My wife of a year younger than me is the mom in the meme. I’m 35. The joke is still alive!
As opposed to the people who don’t vote because they live under a rock or in their mom’s basement?
I mean, I’m kidding, but people you’ve never met can absolutely fuck up your life when in comes to politics.
Now what misanthropic government would do that? Surely none exist!
Among respondents who own luxury brands that they themselves bought (e.g., Gucci, Versace, Rolex), 44% prefer to live in a world without any of those brands altogether. Among respondents not owning such brands, the fraction preferring to live in a world without them is 69%.
That’s interesting.
Actually, this is kinda like using fossil fuels. If we didn’t have fossil fuels our lives would be miserable. And while using them adds some utility, burning fossil fuels still leaves us miserable, particularly as climate change grows worse.And so, even though I use fossil fuels to fuel my car, heat my home, and cook my food, I’d still prefer to live in a world where its significantly reduced to phased out altogether.
Now that is a good argument!
Claude.ai. I took the transcript of the video and asked for an outline using a prompt I usually use for outlining textbook chapters lol.
Here’s an AI outline because this was actually a good talk:

It’s been a few years, but I really liked Linux Mint and Xfce. The former is more friendly for beginners. But XFCE is responsive…like…you click and the computer responds immediately. It feels like the computer is really yours. Don’t get me wrong, though, Linux Mint is really responsive, too, particularly in comparison to Windows.
You can always try them out, too, before you commit with your current computer. In the past, I’ve used VirtualBox to virtualize Mint/Xfce. Here’s a tutorial. It sounds fancy, but it’s pretty easy.
…this is funny af. Like, god damn.
Never seen it, so I don’t get it.
Well, to understand the issue, you have to experience the content.
A boycott of a song is going to make it a #1 hit because #1 hits are defined by how many times a song is listened to. And if you’re like, “Wtf did this jackass say?”, then you’re going to contribute to making it a #1 hit.
In contrast, the right absolutely did watch the Budlight ad. But ad views does not make Budlight one of the most popular beers; rather, profit does. And if you just watch an ad and don’t buy the product, surprise surprise, you’re not contributing to Budlight’s market share.
So, no, the silent majority isn’t real. The mechanics of what it means to “be the best” in each industry is really what makes this meme work. Also, the mechanics of what it means to be the best in each industry is why this meme fails.
the best way to use LLMs - general definitions or framing / summarizing of issues. And then always check the sources to make sure it was accurate.
I agree. The criticism that they’re not accurate kinda misses the point of LLMs being tools. It’d be like complaining that a hammer doesn’t jam the nail in all the way after the first stroke. Hit it again…and maybe try hitting it straight this time instead of at an angle. It’s an iterative process that can be self-correcting when done thoughtfully.
Or the right one if I want to “be the change I want to see in the world”.
Oh boy. I do research on it for various things. Florida released some laws changing alimony and I researched it via Perplexity to understand what the problem was. It worked. I understood the issue.
In any case, I do look directly at the sources. Perplexity.ai is useful for framing a topic, getting the gist of it, but for being sure I know wtf is going on, I personally need to look at the sources.
As someone getting an MBA that hates the idea of labor being displaced by AI, if I were an unethical business owner that treated labor as a cost to minimize, I’d use AI to generate content that’s “good enough” and use fewer people to make it exactly to my specification.
…god damn it…
