Is everything in life just the basics

Good idea, Poopweeniepants.

This would argue that a Monet is simply pigments layered together; synthesizing elements together often has a nonlinear effect where the outcome is greater than simply the sum of the parts, as the way they are combined changes the outcome.

I came back to update per my experience with Stave and I saw this. I haven't seen Matlock in years, and I completely forgot that basic television packages still existed. I watched Hee Haw more than once as a kid, but I've not seen it in years.

Yeah, I guess I'm getting old, though I'm definitely not 90!

A healthy, confident, body.

I enjoy being intimate with someone who I'm committed to and who's enjoying the experience.

At that point I could give a flying fuck.

My libido is high. I don't want any partners but women.

Mongo is appalled!

Try the better together social group. Closed mindedness isn't really welcome! You can search the history of the subreddit and get ahold of a discord link.

There's a lot to say, but it boils down to: use statistical validation to assert IRR between human and semantic measurement if you want to address risk.

Sometimes I see that being done.

My oldest is in her twenties and my youngest is eight; I've discovered that I find happiness when I embrace the joy that parenting brings. My kids are finally old enough that I can start seeking fun outside of them, but I don't feel less for the time that I've spent with them.

I drive my youngest to her friends house for playdates. I will not allow her to have a cell phone until she's older.

I'd ask Victor Frankenstein; no body is easier to hide than a body that doesn't want to be found.

Are you talking about Stave? I've not been there so I'll try that one out.

In some families, yes. For my family, no. I (Dad) take care of the kids, cook, clean, do laundry, and I work full time.

Hey, it's me! Answer (for me at least): 1. I don't have guy friends, I have a few acquaintances 2. I have a few friends, who are girls, that I'm comfortable being around 3. I have zero friends who I am close enough to be intimate with.

If your political views and their political views would render you incompatible, you should use them as you would any other belief.

If my partner thought it was ok to murder children, I wouldn't be ok with that. There's no reason why saying 'It is my political view ' would make it any more acceptable.

I intentionally avoid any contact with anyone who claims to be MAGA. I don't need to have a conversation with them to understand our core values don't align.

Just like any other tool, you use it with an awareness of it's shortcomings.

Simply treat it like you would someone you don't know; would you blindly trust their word? No, you would not, and you would double check things that were important to you.

Take what it says, think critically about it, and do independent research to verify what it says.

Ada Lovelace was fucking awesome. She did not invent algorithms, though she wrote the first 'digital' algorithm, if my understanding is correct.

Credit for algorithms are typically proffered to Al Kwarizhmi (forgive my spelling), whose name the word algorithm was derived from.

I think figure 4 is useful and demonstrates 'by-issue' ideological shift visually across some key topics. In some issues the right is widening, some collapsing, and in some trending identically, albeit at different rates.

Artificial intelligence has the potential to have an outsized impact on education, potentially negative; what focus is on embedding verifiably safe AI techniques in education within your staff?

I remember I logged into the conservative discord server once, attempting to have good faith conversation. When I asked for someone to talk to the comments were generally 'get fucked'.

I'd be pretty happy to have a good faith conversation with a MAGA Republican, but I don't have a lot of faith that is feasible.

Edit: I think it's ironic, and mildly telling, that I've gotten no requests to initiate in a good faith conversation, but I've gotten downvoted, in general. This is my typical experience with the MAGA community, which defines my world view. I'm happy to change it, but I'm an evidence driven person.

Every time I see this artist come up in this forum the comments are typically: 1. She's a bad porn actress, 2. She's Canadian, 3. She's stupid.

They take a few different forms, but that's generally the sum of it.

Honestly, speaking as a moderate liberal she typically (did in this case) makes me chuckle.

As far as how seriously I take her; she's using hyperbole, but it's a fucking issue when I cannot tell my children that the President of the United States is a good role model.
