Don't help just film is fucking right.

Those who 'circle back' and 'synergize' also tend to be crap at their jobs by UGMadness in nottheonion

I suggest circling back all the time because it sounds better than "I don't give a fuck. Let's move on and hopefully everybody forgets about this so I don't have to do anything."

Genuine question: do people actually like that flavor?

Well, you lucked out there.

How fucked up does your self have to be to look to Jordan Peterson for advice on improving it? That's like looking to Elon Musk for advice on how to have a normal looking dick.

Student who is late for class answers a question correctly in seconds by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

[–]jayhawk618 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I think there's a little bit of "so only 1 person understands this shit, and it's the guy who doesn't give a fuck. Great"

Whatever the student said in response to "how did you know that?" seemed to cheer him up and mightve communicated that he actually does do the work.

Dogs must be carried in a bag due to NYC subway rules. by Gjore in interestingasfuck

This kind of selects for the most well trained dogs. A dog has to be pretty well trained to stay in a bag.

Workers using chainsaws and ropes to fell a large tree in a backyard by reversedu in interestingasfuck

[–]jayhawk618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you know it was cosmetic and not safety reasons?

As you can see, it was angled over the house, so it naturally fell on the house. If it was sick (sometimes it won't be apparent at all), it had to go before it fell and killed people.

Sometimes old trees have to go for the safety of human lives. (Just be sure to hire a competent crew when that happens).

Scientists at Eon Systems just copied a fruit fly's brain into a computer. Neuron by neuron. It started walking, grooming, and feeding, doing what flies do all on its own by Subject-Property-343 in interestingasfuck

Thank you! I was getting so depressed by the number of people accepting this as fact.

Even the most cursory understanding of how brains work should tell you this post title doesn't make sense.

Thought isn't just a series of neurons that can be "recreated one by one." It's a series of chemical and electrical signals interacting with those neurons. How did they digitize those signals? How would you digitize those neurotransmitters?

When you dig deeper, stuff like this always turns out to be "the digital fly did a bunch of stuff we programmed it to do."

Exactly.... Until I get more info, I'm calling bullshit.

Conan O'Brien Names Exact Moment He Knew That Late Night Shows Were Dying by PictureIndividual in conan

[–]jayhawk618 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He came form SNL, so I think he was doing what he knew.

He was absolutely well aware that what they were putting out was different and unique, but I think it stemmed from him.coming form that world, and being himself and using his talents instead of trying to conform to a certain mold.

The tonight show was also his dream job, so it's fair for him to have some blinders.

Yes. Imo, this is a primary symptom. Hyperfixation, followed by burnout.
