I can get it for some environments. For example in central Asia, coming from a nomadic lifestyle and living in yurts (big tents) it’s totally understandable to keep your shoes on. Maybe the building style is a continuation of the yurt and lends to similar choices.
I was once in Paraguay and their buildings typically don’t have a hallway, every room is accessible from the outside. Most of their life is also spent outside, like cooking and eating. It’s nice weather for most of the year, why not.
But for European style weather and houses, I will always take my shoes off.

- Comment on Student Parking 2 weeks ago:
Nah. I paid 200€ a semester student contribution for a train ticket and the student parliament and stuff and 0€ tuition. But I ended up taking the 30min car ride instead of 2h bus+train and the car park was free (it was just a gravel plot but who cares).

- Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 1 month ago:
Honestly, no. I only ever have singular moths or ladybirds or stinkbugs that fly in when I open the window. They’re easy to catch and set outside. Some spiders here and there. Maybe house flies in the summer, but not too many.
I’ve read about protecting your sugar from ants on the internet, but have never heard about that from people irl and never seen the need for it.
I live in a brick house, not a wood frame house, which might be the explanation. - Comment on Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life 1 month ago:
I’ve only ever had like a single ant that came in when i opened the door. I would then pick it up and set it outside or sometimes kill it. I never had a whole line of ants enter my house and I’m certain they can’t.

But how large are the holes in your walls or windows to let the ants through?

- Comment on Why do you hate AI? 1 month ago:
Life experience. In my experience, men are generally speaking more confidently incorrect. On the internet I see this trait most often with US Americans, regardless of skin colour. In real life, I see it often with consumers of tabloids or russian news.

- Comment on Chasing the Elephant 2 months ago:
Afaik imgen ai starts with a salt and pepper noise image (randomised grey values, or maybe even randomised colour values). It then pushes and pulls the image in the direction of its learned nodes and weights.
So typically an imgen ai will generate images with a very even distribution of value (light and dark). It will have difficulty generating a picture like a Rembrandt painting with high light/dark contrasts. It probably can’t generate pictures with a lot of dark and one small bright spot. At least not out of the box.
