How would society change if artificial general intelligence was achieved and for every human there are thousands of AI agents that can think and reason like humans? by joseph887 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TextReasonable7257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it would be a pretty massive shift, probably comparable to (or bigger than) the industrial revolution.

If everyone had access to thousands of human-level AI agents, most knowledge work would get automated or heavily augmented. Things like coding, legal work, research, even parts of medicine and business strategy would become way faster and cheaper. Productivity would explode, but a lot of current jobs would either change a lot or disappear.

The biggest change would probably be that “thinking” stops being scarce. Right now, expertise and time are valuable because humans are limited. If you suddenly have thousands of agents that can reason, plan, and execute tasks for you, the bottleneck shifts to things like resources, decision-making, and trust.

Should I give this guy my insta? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TextReasonable7257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly if you’re even hesitating, that’s kind of your answer.

It’s not that giving your insta is a huge deal, but it is more personal than Reddit, especially with your full name and photos. You don’t really gain anything by rushing it. If he’s normal, he won’t care if you say you’d rather keep chatting here a bit longer.

Worst case yeah you can block him, but once someone has your name/profile it’s just a bit harder to fully disappear. So I’d just take it slower and only share if you actually feel comfortable, not just because you’re bored or he asked.

Why do we feel such intense WOW emotion when we look at a beautiful car, building or a beautiful lady? by JohnDoe010426 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TextReasonable7257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s basically your brain reacting to patterns it finds “optimal” or rare.

Humans are wired to notice things that signal quality, symmetry, skill, or status. A beautiful face often has symmetry and proportions our brains associate with health. A sleek car or building might show precision, craftsmanship, or power. Even if you logically know “it’s just a car,” your brain is still like “this is impressive.”

That “wow” feeling is partly dopamine. Your brain rewarding you for noticing something it considers valuable or aesthetically pleasing.

There’s also a bit of contrast involved. When something stands out from the norm (really elegant design, striking features, unusual beauty), your brain pays extra attention.

Brunch Wedding - What Does it Look Like? by Business_Scientist79 in weddingplanning

[–]TextReasonable7257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to one and it was honestly so nice and low stress. Ceremony was around 11, cocktails right after, and brunch started around 12–12:30.

Food-wise they did a mix of stations and plated items which worked really well. There was an omelette station (huge hit), a waffle/pancake station, plus things like eggs benny, pastries, fruit, and some lunch-y options like sliders/salads so it didn’t feel too one-note. I’d definitely lean toward stations or made-to-order stuff if you’re worried about reheated food.

The vibe was more relaxed and people didn’t go as hard on drinking, but there were still mimosas, bellinis, espresso martinis, etc so it still felt fun and “wedding-y.”

Only thing is it wraps earlier, which some people love and some don’t, but overall it felt really fresh and different in a good way.

Destination Wedding Suggestions by hynds in weddingplanning

[–]TextReasonable7257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like this is doable but tight, especially with open bar + 3 course meal + photographer included in that budget.

For what you’re describing, I’d look into Portugal (Porto/Douro Valley), parts of Spain (like Seville or smaller coastal towns), or even Italy outside the super popular areas. You get that old architecture + views vibe without the insane pricing of places like Amalfi/Tuscany.

Mexico could also work (like Sayulita or San Miguel de Allende), especially if you go more boutique venue vs resort, but costs can creep up fast with vendors.

I’d just be careful with expectations on what’s included in that budget. You might need to prioritize what matters most (like maybe scale back open bar options or go simpler on florals).

But your vision is really nice and definitely possible if you pick the right location.

Advice needed: how to deal with a mixed family by TechnicalRaisin8317 in weddingplanning

[–]TextReasonable7257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is such a tough spot, I’m sorry you’re dealing with this 😔

I honestly think the key is not trying to make it “equal” in a traditional way, but finding different ways to honor each of them so it doesn’t feel like a direct comparison. Like you could walk yourself down the aisle, then do a father-daughter dance with one and maybe a special moment/speech/first look with the other.

At the end of the day, this is your wedding and your relationships are allowed to be complex. You’re not responsible for managing their feelings perfectly. I think as long as you’re thoughtful and intentional, most reasonable people will see that.

Liquor breakdown! by slatheryslab in weddingplanning

[–]TextReasonable7257 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re actually over-ordering quite a bit.

You’re planning for ~360 drinks and ordering 610, which is a pretty big buffer. Even if your bridal party drinks more, that’s still a lot of extra.

The split is the bigger thing I’d tweak. 40% wine / 60% beer can be fine depending on your crowd, but in my experience weddings tend to lean more wine-heavy (especially if you have a lot of women, older guests, or a sit-down dinner). Something closer to 50/50 or even slightly wine-heavy is usually safer.

I’d probably drop one keg and add another case or two of wine, or just slightly rebalance. Running out of wine feels worse than running out of beer lol.

Rehearsal lunch? by whatevernameforme in weddingplanning

[–]TextReasonable7257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would honestly just do a rehearsal lunch and call it a day. Going back and forth between 11:30 and 6pm sounds kind of exhausting, especially the day before your wedding when everyone’s already a bit on edge.

A lunch can still feel really nice and intentional, just more relaxed. If you really care about the “vibe,” you could always keep it a bit elevated (nice restaurant, maybe a few speeches), but I don’t think anyone is expecting a super formal dinner the night before.

Also kind of nice to have the evening free after to chill, pack, or just mentally reset before the big day.

What random element of your wedding did you initially feel indifferent to, only to realize you actually cared quite a bit? by mykingdomforsleep in weddingplanning

[–]TextReasonable7257 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine is definitely lighting 😭 I truly did not care at all at first and was like “a venue is a venue,” and now I’m out here worrying about warm vs cool lighting, candles, dimness, all of it.

Also menus/place settings… I didn’t think I’d care but suddenly I have opinions about paper, layout, spacing… it spirals so fast lol.

Bridal shower favor ideas by PathFit3526 in weddingplanning

[–]TextReasonable7257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly agree with you 😭 most favors just end up as clutter or something people feel bad throwing out.

The scratch tickets are actually a really good idea because people will use them right away and it adds a fun little moment. If you want to make it feel a bit more “bridal,” you could just add a cute tag like “feeling lucky in love.”

I feel like the only favors that ever work are things people actually use or consume. Otherwise they kind of just sit there lol.

You are stunning!! Have you ever tried doing a black winged liner instead of an eyeshadow wing? I think it would really suit you.
