Not the only point. No one to complain or so you when you say to do something immoral ,unethical, illegal, hateful, or just plain old evil.
Not having to worry about hire/fire cycles, can just turn off and on as needed. Can make AI work 24 hours a day everyday assuming you have lobbied to get unfair access/cost to/on the energy
And you can have it tell you anything you want it to when you have board meeting

- Comment on Why does it feel like most art museums are for adults and most science museums are for kids? 1 week ago:
Most art needs context or understanding of a subject before it can be fully experienced. Something children generally don’t have the base of knowledge to understand or appreciate. Though there is certainly art that is meant singularily with just the work itself sans anything else.
Needing that art history to appreciate it doesn’t work for kids most of the time.
Science helps children understand the world they are a part of. They need it in a way that art generally doesn’t.
This also changes depending on what science is on display but kids as re also exposed to art in the form of media and the decor of the places they live.
Higher science or perhaps a better term might be more complicated science needs advanced education to be digested, and also much of science that is new to people would need to be read and understood in publication or it is behind restricted areas for safety and also IP reasons so not really something you can bring kids to to show them.
So it makes sense, it’s not too difficult to understand. But there also is room for taking the time and effort to create museums that DO allow those things that usually arent allowed.
Art in action IS a museum/gallery
Science in action will often get you killed without proper safety and that would add significant cost to projects that already have funding issues.
And then there’s things like CERN… You can get a tour!

Underneath I’m assuming is the hand help controls. Like flipping open an GameBoy Advance SP or a DS/3DS. But instead of flipping it open like a clam shell the screen is rotated open

I can but I’ll need some help. Where did we go off the rails, or how if that’s easier to answer
- Comment on Hottest thing ever 2 weeks ago:
Knowing a couple different polycules but not being in that community myself, I now think of these things much differently and sometimes completely miss the point they are trying to make and just think it’s a happy thought they are sharing instead of trying justv celebrating shitty behavior.
And let me tell you how many wonderfully bewildered looks I get when it’s a person who is saying it in front of me and my reaction is completely different then they are expecting

You have no idea if they have a reason or not. Perhaps that’s their regular spot. Perhaps the wifi or data signal is only good in that area, maybe they are just asshole. But you assume a lot and are just jumping to conclusions. Behaviours that lead to worse results.
There’s always more to the story than you can tell.
- Comment on why does almost nobody live here? 1 month ago:
Do a quick look at the terrain option on Google maps. I think it’s very obvious that there were advantages places for larger populations to settle around. That particular section of the west coast is fairly inhospitable. Look at the coastal sea floor as well. It paints a fairly clear picture on its own, especially when comparing it to the east coast. Secondly find a timelapse of the how north American was settled as colonies. Stuff mostly came from the east and eventually made it’s way to the west. Railroads are big big part of how the west was colonized and there wasn’t much use for north south railways as things progressed as there was to get things to and from the east.
That locks in or at least reinforces the locations of where major populations can establish themselves.
It’s only been about 135 years since trans Pacific trade started(quick google info please be kind if that’s wrong)
And it was with people’s that had absolutely no relation with the European colonists. And they were also very xenophobic culturally and didn’t develop very advanced in deep ocean sailing due to lack of interest.
The old world was east of the Americas, mystery and the unknown was the Pacific. There be monsters there!
So all in all it seem to make a lot of sense that there wasnt much economic pressures requiring big coastal economies until well after established communities and regions developed.
I think Astoria is one of the older major coastal trade cities, but it faltered as Seattle and Portland developed.
And to your point about being inland a ways, they are in much most hospitable regions for farming and agriculture to support a large population
- Comment on why does almost nobody live here? 1 month ago:
Why do you think almost no one lives there just because you don’t know of a major city in the area?
It’s simple logistics, there’s no reason for a major city to be there.
You have Seattle, Vancouver, Victoria in the same region. And if anything is coming to the area it’s going to that region already, and if it’s going farther south you have better ports in Oregon.
Genuinely curious what made you interested in this idea or where it came from

It’s a pagan celebration co opted by the church to expand the influence of Christianity.
December 25th is not even the correct day to celebrate the birth of Christ. That’s other pagan holidays being co opted to fuel conversion of “Savages”.
Yule is not a Christian celebration yet it has been supplanted by Christianity.
Some reading on the practice.

Massive software layoffs have been common for as long as I can remember. I think it’s not that big of an issue to explain why you are looking for a job in that field. Oh your last job was xxx ahh they laid off x number of employees.
It’s not a secret that most of the people laid in these things are just people on the wrong teams and nothing to do with their capabilities
