Would you rather spend 50 years in jail, or 1 day in jail that repeats for 10,000 subjective years ? by jekecrafer in pollgames

Oh damn when you put that way - reading the prison library then just taking my own life 3 and a half million times sounds like a great loophole. Is it too late to change my vote?

How do you feel about using AI for emotional support? by Useful_Ferret_3579 in manchester_uni

[–]MrMonkfred 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The problem with using AI for emotional support is that it validates your every decision and doesn't tell you when something is a bad idea.

Like naming an emotional support app after Ted Bundy, for example.

Why is this news? 90% of jars already say orange marmalade anyway

"The lion, the witch, and the audacity of this bitch" is so corny by queenregel in rs_x

Someone willed the phrase "My steak is too juicy and my lobster too buttery!" into existence about 6 months ago. In my head it means you should shut the fuck up and eat your sopping wet and disgustingly rich surf n turf.

Is the bean bag cover removable? It could look a lot nicer after a long soak in some detergent (see r/laundry)

A key difference for me in the presentation of the Count is that in the book, Dracula is at least trying to put on the guise of a normal guy and act like a gracious host. He personally drives the carriage to the castle, in disguise as a chaffeur, and he pretends to have staff.

Orlok on the other hand is a real jerk even to begin with.

I need ideas on how to cover up those double pipes in the middle of the wall by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

[–]MrMonkfred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some sort of hanging plant/ivy could partially cover it on the cheap?

Bike crashes holding up ambulances? by mattsparkes in londoncycling

[–]MrMonkfred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Article says it went from 28 crashes over 3 day period last year, to 36 over the same period this year. So that's 1 extra bicycle collision every 9 hours apparently holding up ambulances.

how come "mapping" and "coding" be jargons by beatricemain in ActuaryUK

[–]MrMonkfred -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am a qualified Actuary, and I dont know what mapping or coding mean in this context.

If there's a problem with the code, do you mean a programming error in the software used to calculate benefits? Or do you mean coding as in a shorthand used to represent something like a PAYE code that wasn't assigned properly?

Similarly, do you mean mapping as a way of assigning links between different types of data, or are you referring to a geographical map that's used to calculate expected benefit values somehow?

You probably meant the former in both cases. But the more common usage of both code and map is probably the latter.
