And that’s why native rights continue to be attacked even after recent surprising wins. The current court thinks treaties are bullshit and native rights have been getting fucked for a bit now.

2013-02-27 is also unambiguous unless you’re aware of a country that uses year day month, is not?

There are several people in the comments saying they have to use 27 Feb 2013 because they work with people all over the world. I’m really confused - what does that solve that 2013-02-13 does not? I know that not every language spells months the English way so “Dec” or “May” aren’t universal. Is there some country that regularly puts year day month that would break using ISO 8601 or RFC 3339?

I’d be curious to see a sorting algorithm that doesn’t handle YYYYY-MM-DD with YYYY-MM-DD properly. If you drop the dashes you still get a proper numeric order. If you sort by component, you still get the proper order. Maybe a string sort wouldn’t? Off the top of my head the languages I’m thinking either put longer strings later, giving us the proper order, or could put 1YYYY- ahead of 1YYY-M so maybe string sorting is the only one that’s out.

I do a lot of con/fair/vendor stuff and support. I have heard (but never done because that’s illegal) that among friends it’s very common to not check that flag to save those friends some headache. It’s also a really good way to get scammed if you do it for strangers on the internet.

I suspect that platforms push it down to the users to reduce their compliance burden. Why make life better for your end users by spending some money when you can just make life more complicated for small businesses by having them own everything even the things they don’t know about?

Not quite. The meme is referencing a new law that targets platforms when the money is sent as a payment. So, for example, if you Venmo your roommate 2k over a year for utilities, your roommate is fine unless you mark it as for a vendor (there’s a little toggle whose exact text I forget). This meme is making that joke.

Giving today’s AI slop coverage at all provides some bias for AI slop, especially if the coverage ends on any kind of positive note or doesn’t also highlight the extreme damages AI data centers cause. AI theory is all maths; AI practice (at least currently) is the widespread destruction of natural resources to increase the value of a handful of individuals solely on paper. Not explaining that makes it look good because why wouldn’t we improve AI relationships because the math looks solid! (Or whatever other example AI slop would provide if relationships doesn’t reasonate) There are recent videos of Hannah Fry explaining how to get value out of LLMs which doesn’t bode well.

Yeah, respec for a fee.

If the BL3 “balancing” shenanigans happen again, it would be best to wait a year or two to play BL4 so you know how Randy wants you to play the game and you won’t get frustrated when your single player build gets nerfed into oblivion.

This reminds me a lot of LogLog Games doing the same thing this time last year. It also talks about similar issues and goes pretty deep into normal Rust responses.

I will be incredibly disappointed if Hannah Fry turns into an AI apologist. Just as long as this stays focused on how fucking dumb it is, she’s on the right path. She is brilliant; hopefully she doesn’t fall prey to the propaganda.

I’m glad you did! Savantism tends to be looked down on by the rest of ASD folx who aren’t savants, which is unfortunately a majority. It’s also important to note you don’t have to beat the shit out of your shins, subject yourself to loud noises and flashing lights, and do other unpleasant, torture-adjacent things just to mask. You can find communities out there that will accept you for you with or without a mask.

The first was one of the most hilariously bad and poor taste depictions of autism since Rain Man. There’s no way the second is any better.

I don’t think the older generations accurately highlighted how shitty those were as replacements because they weren’t shitty. Google, Wikipedia, and calculators actually brought meaningful improvements. This AI slop provides nothing on a shitty MS Paint meme or stick figure napkin sketch. Calculators, Wikipedia, and Google aren’t in a death race to consume water and energy faster than the world can handle. Calculators and Wikipedia (not Google tho) aren’t in a death race to move as many resources away from the working class as possible.

The other blindingly important part of those criticisms is their context. There are situations where it is valid to not use calculators, Google, or Wikipedia. Trying to say “but I want to make sweeping generalizations that miss the point of contextual arguments so I can justify AI slop burning fossil fuels” highlights just how much you misunderstand all of it.

This seems to be an alternative to Jira Service Management, not Jira Software. There’s a very important distinction between the two.

Have you seen how big the busy baby is? Your link doesn’t have the mold volume needed for the bib. For the utensils? Sure. But the utensils without the bib is pretty pointless.

Perhaps you should reach out to her and let her know that she can produce in the US? Have you done that since you’re so concerned about her grift? You’d be able to get proof she’s a real proof of shit. Of course you’ll need to provide capital since hers is gone and you’ll want to make sure to get all of her quote history since she didn’t do her research. She’s so clearly lying and you’re the only one who can tell the truth.

None of your examples are parody movies from companies with a long history of tons of sequels and dumb jokes. This is the fourth movie in a series. It’s basically been in development hell since the early 2000s. I’m not going to say this is quality; it’s not dead IP and it’s not a Kubrick. This is more like beating a dead horse (possibly) that resurrecting something.

If you wanted to make your point, something like Airplane 3 or Men in Tights 2 would have been more apt. AFAIK neither of those have been in development and they’re both from the same vein of late 20th century parody movies. The movies you mentioned would be good responses if a studio rebooted, say, Platoon as a 2000s war movie. Some movie collections like Naked Gun, Scary Movie, Police Academy, and National Lampoon are intended to stick around for a long time (even if they’re just getting progressively fucking worse).

There are maybe three sentences worth of content.

Wrapped.

In stutters.

That make.

Super hard.

To read.

It drives me nuts on LinkedIn; it’s sad to see it’s made the jump to “longform” on substack.

This article isn’t really so much pro indie as it is anti Marvel and DC superheroes. A bunch of the books mentioned are Image or Dark Horse, who I wouldn’t call indies these days. Image is still creator owned (which is a good thing) and Dark Horse has been part of Embracer for awhile (which is not great). I’m genuinely surprised an article about indies doesn’t mention Bone too; that is the poster child for amazing work.
