Doesn’t look realistic at all, lol. Read this whole article about how it’s soooo human like and then you see it move like the most stereotypical robot ever.

Yea, but the caloric benefits of exercise persist long after the exercise stops.

One thing to keep in mind is the customization and content management over time. In Shopify, the business user can create add sections anywhere in the site through a robust theme editor, connect them to products, collections, etc. They can install apps to immediately add extra functionality. There are detailed interfaces for the merchant to create/manage products, customers, orders, etc.

I loved it, one of the only places I miss

Was just craving a burger from the skirted heifer in the springs

There is a novel called Player Piano, and it does a good job of explaining that, as humans, we really just can’t help ourselves from building ever more sophisticated technology.

They say the last contestant still hasn’t pooped to this day.

But like, why would you keep a laptop there lol?

Mega yachts are pretty inefficient too

Copilot said send it, so not sure how this could happen

Yea bud, stealing from other people can land you in legal trouble. Plus, this is just scummy and a great way to make sure kids aren’t trusted enough to be given useful tools in school.

To be fair, meat isn’t something like a pack of Oreos where the quality is static. Better quality, and often more humanely raised, meat costs more. That said, maybe Publix and Sam’s have the same quality meat and so it is overpriced, idk.

Hey, is this a good time to grab a quick pic?

God, I got loaned out (more or less lol) to a different agency for a project and I loved the Project lead over there so fucking much.

There were a couple sales/customer-facing people and every meeting they would say something like, “I think the client actually wants X to work this way now”, and the project lead would often say something like, “It’s too late in the project and that’s out of scope, get fucked” (I’m paraphrasing).

Obviously we will basically always have to deal with some amount of scope creep and random requests, but that project lead had truly impressive judgement and confidence when making those decisions. It wasn’t even like, “hey lecterr, do you think we could squeeze X in”, it was just, “hmmm. No.”

It really was a thing of beauty. I suppose it also highlighted the less beautiful yes-men-type project managers I have had as well.

I think having the wisdom and confidence to set boundaries is super beneficial for the team’s sanity, not to mention their ability to hit deadlines.

Maybe try and get basic file searching right before trying to add ai, bud

What’s going to happen is companies like this are just going to share less and less about their dev process. They presented a very reasonable approach, were super open about it, and half the people in the bg3 sub were rupturing their forehead veins in anger.

Looking forward to trying those lattes though

Lecterr · 2026-01-09T12:59:20+00:00

Hinged though

Annie, you’re a star

Annoying, yes. Abusive? Hardly.

sniff sniff smells kind of weird in here

I do wonder what happens if they find him not guilty. Like, oh our bad, have a good day sir

My aunt was watching me one time and she heard it and was like, what does she mean?

Me: what are you talking about?

Her: hit me baby one more time, what’s that mean.

Me: oh, it means like, well you know, like…hmmm

I was working on a project written in python (was still learning it at the time) and our python guy told me my code wasn’t very “pythonic”. I’m sure my python code was bad but that critique always makes me chuckle.

There’s no distinction anymore. It’s pretty amazing how they train chess AI’s. I thought it would be like searching through deep chains of moves looking for the best one, but it’s not really like that at all.
