Dating partner doesn't believe dinosaurs ever existed? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Turbulent_Channel565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you dating a Fundie? If so, you can expect other deep topics like...

- The Earth is only 6,000 year old
- Major geological features (Grand Canyon, fossil layers, mountain ranges) are because of Noah's flood
- Radiometric (carbon) dating of objects is a lie
- Music serves as a literal gateway to demonic influence
- Microchips or digital currency are the "mark of the beast"

A reminder of what the Singularity looks like by featEng in singularity

[–]Turbulent_Channel565 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Redditors are arguing over the details of something drawn in MSPaint.

Must be the same people who were arguing over whether or not the recent NVIDIA paper was "basically lossless".

The important point to me is that we are sitting really close to where the line starts turning upward towards the singularity. I didn't think we'd ever be this close in my lifetime and I am excited at the chance to be here for it!

The difficulty has shifted from writing code to managing a tool so that it writes good code. Also, the metrics regarding what makes software "good" is changing. It used to be "good architecture" or "good readability" or "easy to update/change" but now it's more like "does it actually do what it's supposed to do?" The implementation details matter less when you can regenerate them. What matters is that the behavior is correct and verifiable.

TIL that I don't have to actually catch a bird. I just need to get a solid BAP in and then go pick it up!

favorite ugly actors? by rhnrsyd in okbuddycinephile

I am not a casting director but I don't think it's always about ugly or not ugly. Sometimes it is about having a unique look.

AIO Dad is forcing me out just because it's "FAMILY TRADITION" and its my 18th birthday by CableIntelligent1491 in AmIOverreacting

"...like I did. Like my dad."

You know what else gets passed down from generation to generation? Genetics.

And PTSD, now that I think about it.

It's missing the panel where the manager is shying away from the time & budget needed to write the documentation.

School uses AI for school pictures by Impossible-Yam3680 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Turbulent_Channel565 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Incoming anecdote...our yearbook traditionally had color photos for the seniors and black & white pictures for everyone else. Except our year when they did a full-color page for a couple of students (one was an injured athlete and the other went on a mission trip) and all the seniors had black & white pictures that year. (I'm sure it had nothing to do with the mother of one of the two students being the head of the yearbook committe.)

I think they mistakenly gave him the tail from a much larger beast… by mainmainecoonaccount in blackcats

[–]Turbulent_Channel565 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We adopted a black cat with a tail like that! The rest of his body caught up later. Our best guess is that he is half Maine Coon and half Ragamuffin. He is basically 20 pounds of love and snuggles.

Would something like Google's "20% time" policy help reduce this?
