  yeah I was 15 years younger when I tried it and it was just a novelty.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do we tolerate it that Luigi Mangione is being held in prison. We know its absolutely the least safe place he can be?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  There is a lot of reasonable doubt: no matching eyebrows, different clothes, suspicious evidence processing, disconnect in time-line, weird arrest conditions…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is a fighter⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  running at 12mph on a treadmill is scary and fucking exhausting.

  in the development a lot of stuff got cut too so there was art meant to be interacted with that ended up not being

  ☝️🤓 that would be reflection boxing, a different visual phenomenon

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TRUCKIN'⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  it’s a good time for them, dispassionately speaking- Ocean freight is down, meaning you’re looking for nearshoring (Mexico and Canadian cross border freight), meaning you want more over the road shipping across large land masses than shipping to a port.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TRUCKIN'⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  hey, I mean Uber Freight is a thing now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  ad tracking is only as personalized as the company running the ads

  If I’m advertising fake nails, it’s personalized if you like fake nails and I advertise to fake nail fans, but if I advertise to all femme people - then it’s no longer personalized, and advertisers tend to do the latter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do office workers actually do?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Account Manager at a marketing agency, I run ~5 marketing departments with a mix of my own staff, outsourced contractors and employees at my clients’ businesses.

  We create marketing campaigns that consist of a set of emails, social posts, ads, thought leadership articles, blogs, landing pages, downloadable PDF reports and the attendant reporting on how they performed, plus finding and targeting the audiences in various segments. It’s a mix of database management, creative writing and design, project planning and communication meetings.

  I generally spend about a 1-2 hours a day on each client, plus meetings. We make and send the collateral, get approval, execute, track, measure, compare, make a strategic conclusion, repeat

  No but there was ASCII art and image macros. They just didn’t really have a name.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Neutronium would like a word.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  moving from Europe to America the amount of times I’m like “it’s 12 3/8ths” to try to, yknow, join in, and everyone’s like “call it 12 or 13”

  motherfucker that’s a huge gap!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨1994 white Kevin⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  unlike other comments, I’d argue, like most tech, it was incredibly profitable for anyone except the people funding it.

  Business is not about extracting money from goods and services, it’s about tricking VC funders to give you 50 million dollars a year

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's with "*checks notes*" everywhere?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  it actually reached its peak in 2018 per this slate article: slate.com/…/checks-notes-was-the-perfect-trump-er…

  It was a big Twitter meme, like Yo Dawg I Heard You Like…, or Hawk Tuah, or Trogdor or whatever. People hear funny thing, repeat funny thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  i think it’s more likely that everyone would race to the bottom to make the cheapest Marvel, Pokémon, Disney, Star Wars, Harry Potter spin offs, merch and content they could.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Infinite Monkey Theorem⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I grew up with the guy in the pic btw. He was always kinda intense.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stuck⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was jerking off around that age, hadn’t ever seen any porn or anything, no need to call child protection, it was just natural for me

  unfortunately not totally universally.

  I’ve beaten most of the Gold Stakes and all of the challenges, its not a forever game. But it is fun.

  The final scene is them all on their phones. Schwarzenegger’s character works at the company, too.

  !i felt the Sritala’s husband mega reveal at the end of the episode was kinda corny anyway, as was the kid surviving the smoothie with no hospital visit or other ill effects, and none of the rich kids even getting a text about their dad being indicted? There was a lot of build up to a lot of hand waved consequences in this season. It kinda felt like a Marvel movie wrap up compared to the previous two seasons. Adding Zion x Piper would be even worse!<

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LinkedIn’s cofounder Reid Hoffman says seeking work-life balance is a red flag that you’re ‘not committed to winning’⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  not to mention a lot of US companies have “bonuses” to encourage you, but haven’t the foresight to think that an unmet bonus - usually out of the person’s hands, at least in my experience - is just a pay cut, and pay cuts are the worst thing you can do for morale and productivity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Maybe it's just a human thing.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Many atheists take part in racism and violence. There was plenty during the Cold War, collapse of Yugoslavia, Gulf War, post-9/11 and both Trump terms.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨>meme arrows⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Someone rewrote the first Harry Potter book (I’m not kidding) to be about Harry using magic to do essentially eugenics, Sam took it seriously.

  From that fanfic, the Rationalist / Effective Altruism people believe that as more people exist in the future than in the present, making an AI singularity that would behave as a God is more important than, e.g. curing cancer, or providing clean drinking water.
