There’s a lot of work to go around. The leopards take care of those who vote against their own interests, the tigers can deal with those who shoud be getting nothing more than a lump of coal for Christmas. In the case that both of these hold true, whichever gets to the perpetrator first eats them.

I know you mean this in jest, but I’m now envisioning hoards of driverless cars roaming around joylessly hunting down artificial ‘pokemon’ to add to their owner’s collection, whilst the owners sit at home listlessly doom scrolling, waiting for their cars to return, so they can see what ‘they’ caught.
I don’t like it.

Weirdly I can see your blasphemous comment about instant ‘coffee’ in your history, linked to this post, but it doesn’t show up in the comments here. I suspect it’s because it’s been voted down to -30.
In answer to the assertion you made about coffee being all the same, I say: you heathen! You Philistine! You non-appreciator of tasty coffee! If you like instant, that’s one thing, but many feel (as do I) that instant isn’t a patch on properly roasted, ground, and brewed coffee.

That may be the case, and I don’t want to make light of the situation, or cast shade on their headline writing abilities, but I wanted to make a point that there was a better option.

Lemon Facts
Thank you for your interest in subscribing to Lemon facts. Here are some sample facts to get you started:
The first substantial cultivation of lemons in Europe began in Genoa, Italy, in the middle of the 15th century.
Christopher Columbus brought lemon seeds to the Americas during his second voyage in 1493.
Lemon juice has antibacterial properties that can help fight infections.
The scent of lemons has been found to reduce stress and improve mood.
British sailors were called ‘limeys’ due to the Navy’s use of citrus juice, particularly lemon and lime, to cure scurvy from the 18th century on.

What ‘delightful’ imagery. “If it was coming out any faster, would still be cold.” just about did me in. Bravo!

I’m trying to do X in programming language Y, are there any libraries for that and can you give me an example”
I found them to be really bad for that in my testing. They’ll happily hallucinate the existance of a library with a vaguely plausible name, spit out ‘sample’ code for it, and then when I ask for a link to the documentation, say “I’m sorry, that library doesn’t exist”. It drives me round the bend!

- Heat a spoonful of butter in a pan.
- Once it’s melted and just sizzling, add about a spoonful of white flour, and stir until you have a smooth paste.
- Cook the roux until it’s slightly darker to give the sauce a richer flavour.
- Add a spoonful of milk and stir until smooth. This is the critical step, but it works out fine unless you let it burn.
- Keep adding milk, a spoonful or two at a time, and mixing, until the sauce is quite liquid and you’re not having to stir much.
- Add the rest of the milk a little faster, still stiring.
- Cook until the sauce is heated through, and bubbling.
- Add unhealthy amounts of your prefered cheese, grated, and keep stiring.
- Cook until the sauce starts to thicken and remove from the heat. It’ll thicken more as it cools.
It seems like a lot of steps, but once you get the hang of it, it’s quick and reliable. The recipies that add flour to a lot if liquid have a tendency to get lumpy, this one cooks the flour in fat first and adds liquid slowly, which pretty much eliminates the issue.

I bet you call all of your variables x,y,z and w, and your function ‘run’, ‘doProcess’ and ‘calculate’ too, don’t you, you monster!
No, but seriously, even thinking of defining PI as 3.05 is evil.

Sounds tasty. I can vouch for lemons undergoing a similar transformation. Wrap them in foil, seal it really well, and chuck them near a fire or bbq. They come out soft, sweet, and delicious.

I would have assumed the more intelligence you have the more capacity to understand and worry about problems you would have.
Intelligence gives you the ability to understand these things, and can also give you the understanding that worrying about the things you can’t change is of no benefit and the ability to then put those things aside so you can focus on changing the things you can improve.
That doesn’t always come naturally, but it’s a valuable thing to practice.

When I look at some of the ideas they came up with, I have to assume it was actually just a cunning plan for America to keep their more deranged inventors, schemers and general crazy folk occupied and out of trouble until and unless Uncle Sam needed their unique thought processes.
It was all managed through a proper chain of command so that they knew the plan and could inform Castro and he could avoid it. After all, they didn’t want the plans to succeed, or they’d need a different way to keep those people occupied.
For the more serious folks, and those who know about this, this post is a bit of whimsy, it’s not serious.

- Comment on Sweet dreams are made of these? 2 months ago:
In a way that’s the very point. They shame people for, amongst other things, what they percieve as sexual deviancy. So, making them realise that one of their own comes up with what they would consider deviant may lead some to reevaluate their position on what is acceptable and/or what they think of him, and whether they keep listening to him. I acknowledge it’s a long shot, but anything that erodes their adherence to these rightwing ‘thought leaders’ is beneficial.

The purpose is, presumably, to encourage people to search for more information about the story but instead stumble across his recounting of his dream about his grandma, thus potentially causing those who support him to slighty reevaluate their opinions of him.
