  This is the worst thing I have ever read.

  I regret reading it. It didn’t get better. You made the right call.

  I have seen many, many meter sticks. Precisely zero of them did not have cm markings on them.

  I’m afraid I had to duck duck go that, but TIL. Does this make me a dog that you pet and won over?! If so, I’ll take it!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cuck Coding⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  That last bit made me chuckle. Sorry if made it harder to disentangle.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cuck Coding⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re doing it again, telling ME what I THINK

  I struggle to find any text that I wrote that supports this assertion.

  I am not an AI supporter. That’s all I want to make clear.

  All I’m saying is that if you want to make that clear, maybe arguing on a technicality on an anti-AI post muddies the water a bit. Read the room a bit.

  Also, if you want to win back the room, apology lands better than defensiveness.

  I am not sorry for anything,

  Like I say, that’s not winning you any friends, and of you blame everyone else but yourself for the reaction to what you said, you will continue to get similar reactions in the future.

  because I never had a problem with what you claim my problem is

  I claim that your problem is that disagreeing with a moderately popular anti AI post on a technicality got folks arguing with you and you aren’t well placed to handle the fallout.

  I am fundamentally being misunderstood and that’s what pisses me off

  As someone who is upset at people misunderstanding them, you’re sure spending a lot of energy complaining about what you assume I think about your viewpoint on AI, when in fact I believe I made no claim or assumption whatsoever about what you believe about AI, just about what you said and how you said it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cuck Coding⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t care if you disagree.

  And yet here you are, getting upset that people didn’t like what you said.

  My pet peeve is being told what I think and what I am

  Then may I suggest that disagreeing with people on a technicality isn’t going to end well for you, and you’re going to need a thicker skin if you do.

  Also, if you want to win back the room, apology lands better than defensiveness.

  I always thought of the major keys as gentler and cheerier, like a daisy chain, and the minor keys as darker and stronger, like a deep purple orchid, but Charpentier clearly saw it completely differently.

  But for a healthy person, “it would be impossible to overdose on bananas,” says Collins. "You would probably need around 400 bananas a day to build up the kind of potassium levels that would cause your heart to stop beating… Bananas are not dangerous - and in fact they are, and always have been, very good for you."

  Adults should consume about 3,500mg of potassium per day, according to the UK’s National Health Service. The average banana, weighing 125g, contains 450mg of potassium, meaning a healthy person can consume at least seven-and-half bananas before reaching the recommended level.

  There are some people who should steer clear of foods that are high in potassium though, warns Collins - those with kidney disease.

  “These patients have a very low kidney function which can potentially see a build-up of harmful potassium levels in their blood stream because they can’t get rid of the mineral when they pass urine,” she says. “So in theory it is possible for someone with kidney disease to die of a high blood potassium level if they decided to consume lots of different food types rich in the mineral.”

  She once had a patient on dialysis who had a heart attack after eating too many tomatoes - another fruit rich in potassium. His kidneys had already stopped working so he was unable to get rid of the excess.

  But congrats on the getting sober now. That is a monumental achievement that most people never have to struggle with and you should be very proud indeed of it. Very well done indeed.

  Supreme court will simply rule that the constitution means the limit is two consecutive terms and pretend that it isn’t because they’re tearing it to shreds all day every day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re probably not a fascist, though. It lands differently if you’re not using an immigrant community as the scapegoats and locking them up without due process, breaking your country’s constitution and bringing in to being your own private army who wear masks. So, you do you. Trump, however, the world would have been better off without him.

  Rust isn’t a functional programming language. Like many modern languages it has some concepts and features borrowed from functional programming languages, but fundamentally its an imperative language, not a functional one.

  Are you 12?

  Username does not check out.

  I think you have oversimplified somewhat.

  You don’t think Israel has a teensy bit put by for a rainy day? I do. You don’t think Israel has a domestic arms industry? I think they export a great deal. You don’t think there are other suppliers than the USA willing to sell arms to an aggressor? I do. You don’t think electing trump is the worst thing America could have done for the people of Gaza? I do.

  Thank you.

  Trump can’t bear the fact that Biden beat him. It really gets to him like few other things do.

  Of course he also hates it when people ask him why the other half of the Epstein files aren’t getting released.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨President Trump reacts to President Biden’s cancer diagnosis: "I don't feel sorry for him"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If Netanyahu just says nope to Trump’s peace plan, why would he say yes to Biden’s?

  And Reagan didn’t achieve shit - Israel carried on building in the occupied territories regardless, and they only abandoned their war in Lebanon because it was going badly. Reagan did telephone the Israeli prime minister but the Israeli cabinet had already voted to stop the campaign that day, but of course Reagan wanted to take credit for that and announced how stern he was on the phone and the American news outlets of course delighted in fluff pieces praising the president for stopping the war. But that’s all it was. Fluff.

  So, no, your “American president can stop Israeli wars with one phone call” is BS,
