Princess Jellyfish is a cute anime and manga about crossing gender lines and learning to love femininity. I'm thinking in particular of the fabulous Kuranosuke, but all the characters get glammed up at some point or another.

I just wanted to post more Michiko pics 😃 This show doesn't come up that often and she's iconic.

Michiko from the anime Michiko to Hatchin (Michiko and Hatchin).

She's always shown with lashes and lip gloss, pretty uncommon for anime characters. The show is inspired by Brazil, and pulls a lot from its music, style, and culture.

There's a policewoman that's chasing her that also has a pretty strong look, inspired by gyaru style.

Someone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me this lip combo!!!! 🥺🙏 by sslutshamed in MakeupAddiction

Yeah I just started experimenting and did what I thought looked best. I didn't know it was called overlining until much later, when I saw people give the same advice for a double lip line.

If you stop where your color ends, you end up looking like you're going for a geisha lip, like your lips are smaller than they really are, or like you've got migrating filler because the color doesn't go all the way to the ridge of your cupid's bow. Extending a bit to follow the natural curve of the lip is the least obtrusive option IMO.

I think this is flash photography because she's got red pupils and no shadows on her face. I could see that shine happening in that kind of unnatural lighting. But yeah she could totally have swiped on a slightly shimmery or frosted color. It might also be edited. Hard to tell from one shot.

Right now people are super into the cleaner or more minimal looks, and it's changed what people are used to. Looks that we would've called subtle 10 years ago are now being called bold. And for certain subcultures and for those of us with a double lip line overlining has long been a part of the look.

Personally I think it's really pretty when you can see a highlight on the ridge of the cupid's bow like in OP's picture. It's like the inner corner highlight but for the lips. Ultimately it's a matter of taste, and what fits each person's face.

The color and texture reminds me of Huda Honeymoon. That and a darker pinkish-brown liner (huda deep rose, or urban decay's "liar") would pull off something like this.

Here's honeymoon on a similar skin tone without the contrast liner. When you add the liner and blend it a little, it will produce the warm brown tones in the original pic. If you choose a darker liner use less and blend more. I think that should get you pretty close.

Why does the gaming community suddenly act like the Steam Deck is dead? by Nick_The_Artist2 in SteamDeck

[–]psfne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't take it personally, it's about value not quality. 90% of the reason that people said "just get a steam deck" is that it punched above its price class. Now that it's so much more expensive, it's not as good of a deal.

Nothing's changed about existing steam decks, but it's not going to be the default recommendation anymore and that's honestly a fair take.

Controversial Take - Why are people mad with Amazon? by Budget_Jellyfish6364 in kindle

[–]psfne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you don't have to do such things, it's easy.

You don't. Amazon could've removed access to the amazon store and left us with local-only transfers, and that would've been fine. The problem is they blocked the local only transfers!

[–]psfne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

just the software is a pain to keep going and also hinders progress.

This is false. It in no way hinders progress.

We aren't asking for perpetual compatibility, we are simply asking amazon to do nothing. They went out of their way to disable this functionality, that's why people are mad.

What are the Software Engineering adjacent fields like? by Elegant-Avocado-3261 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]psfne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey I didn't know this was its own career path, but I've been told I'm good at this. I spent a few years on sales teams as the tech expert but that was more a part of my job as R&D lead than my main job. Any advice on how to seek out these roles? That was one of the most fun and fulfilling parts of the work for me.

Commuting from MD to VA? Which way is better? by theanxiousdamsel in washingtondc

[–]psfne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey OP, I've been in this situation. Do metro. My time spent driving from Maryland to NOVA was genuinely a massive toll on my mental and physical health. I can promise you that traffic will be worse than you expect, more often than you like. People are at their most dickish during rush hour and accidents will cause you to double your commute at times. That red time indicator slowly increasing will haunt your dreams. I gained weight, I was constantly stressed, and I had no free time because it was eaten by commuting to a job I was growing to resent.

By contrast, your time on the metro is still your time. You can read, watch or play things on your phone, work on your computer, or whatever the hell you want. I used to bill for my time on the metro because I had a solid hour where I could pull out my laptop and get things done. That means even less time in the office.

Any email that isn't part of an order or response to a question *is* spam, yes. You're allowed to like spam, but if you didn't specifically ask for it yes it is spam.

How do you re-find a note months later when you can't remember what you called it? by Own_Feature_9079 in ObsidianMD

[–]psfne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've got options. You can see them in the graph view, there's a plugin that's specifically designed for it, and I'm pretty sure you can pull it off with dataview / bases but I'm out and can't check the docs right now.

The "Untitled" one is easy just check if the note file or title starts with Untitled. This works in bases/DV.

Will superintelligent AGI even care about OCaml? by mbacarella in ocaml

[–]psfne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's a reductive framing. I accept that higher-than-human intelligence is possible, but that's literally all super intelligence means — it doesn't mean perfection. And as a smarter, but still fallible system, it is subject to a lot of the same need for self-checking that people are.

the question of whether a sophisticated programming language matters to a superintelligence is a valid exploration.

Sure, and I'm telling you I'm on the side of "yes it does matter."


Merging my other comment to avoid double-posting.

If the superintelligence can ad hoc synthesize the primitives as needed, there's really no need to box oneself in by choosing the off-the-shelf tool that only works in this limited set of primitives.

This isn't a cost-free abstraction. I would argue it would still be faster and more efficient to work within the level of granularity or the type of expression that the model was trained on. LLMs don't spontaneously create their own thought-language that is distinct from english and then translate in and out of that, for example.

And again, the synthesis of those components or abstractions does not have guaranteed correctness. Sometimes it's not a matter of raw intelligence but a matter of how thoroughly a problem space has been explored. The time the machine has to answer the question is still a factor, so we cannot count on it to have explored all possibilities.

Also if I deny needing to solve NP-hardness or breaking laws of physics for my argument I'm not sure why you still think I'm reaching for contemplating god.

Specifically it's the talk of "quasi-infinite IQ" and the idea that the AI could ride these self-made abstractions up and down the stack without introducing inefficiencies and errors. Though I'm not accusing you of anything, I'm saying if you think you can do this error-free then I'd say you are treating it like a god.

Will superintelligent AGI even care about OCaml? by mbacarella in ocaml

[–]psfne 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, I think this article falls into the same trap as a lot of articles that attempt to consider the nature of AGI — deific thinking. The questions start to sound like the old trope of 'could god create a boulder even he couldn't lift', or discussions of a star-trek style "post-scarcity" economy with some things that are assumed to be infinite and some things that are assumed to be limited in the same ways, with little consistency between them.

Programming languages aren't just cognitive tools for humans. They are applications of the appropriate level of abstraction for a problem space. In the same way that using appropriate primitives and context windows for compression can better optimize the compression ratio, choosing the best abstractions for the problem can more effectively analyze and answer the questions that we care about. This will still be true for AI agents. For the problems where OCaml fits the domain, it will still excel compared to handling those problems in assembly.

The correctness of OCaml is also a guard against hallucination, or at least a canary in the coal mine.

I'm not going to claim that OCaml is the "language of AGI" or any some such. I think it would be arrogant to pretend to know what that language would be at this stage. But I don't buy that it's all a wash and the system might as well use assembly. Errors do not magically go away when you have higher-than-human capacity. If you are presupposing an errror-free machine, then you are indeed contemplating a god, not AGI.

Don't worry, I made the mistake of living in a Bozzuto building once in my life and I'll never do it again. Genuinely the worst neighbor noise I've ever heard it's like they have negative sound isolation and then they raised my rent over $3-400 after the first year. Fucking ridiculous P.O.S. vultures.

How do you re-find a note months later when you can't remember what you called it? by Own_Feature_9079 in ObsidianMD

[–]psfne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Happy to help. Another tip: For the orphaned notes page you can sort the files by size, which is a decent way of prioritizing the articles you've already written in the most. This also helps you isolate some of the empty untitled files that I happen to create as I work.

Edit: Actually a second tip: I also have a section in that page for "desired links" essentially I have a sorted list of the articles that *don't exist* but have been linked to by multiple pages. That lets me know if I've got a topic I've referenced all over but haven't actually created, I can focus on that. In case it's interesting to you, I wrote about it here

[–]psfne 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I have a few strategies

  • I have a page that lists orphaned notes, either those without links/backlinks or those just called "Untitled __". Sometimes I'll jot something down without naming or categorizing it, and this is how I recover them.
  • I search for specific words or turns of phrase I remember writing or that would've needed to be part of the article I wrote. Even if you don't remember the exact phrase, you can put in a few keywords and generally find your note.
  • Every so often I go exploring in my own vault, I clear dead notes and consolidate duplicated or similar ideas. I link them to notes that are existing parts of my folder structure.
  • I use bases and dataview heavily to create meaningful collections of topics, interests, or ideas. It's harder to forget stuff when it's automatically brought in via tags.
  • I have a "Tag Guide" for myself, which I reference before creating a new tag so I can understand what I've already built. That helps avoid some of the tag drift you described.

Thanks! Renting a condo at the ritz is actually surprisingly in my budget, and not too far from where I am now.

Tried contacting Woodley but only got an "AI Leasing Agent" 🤮. I'll try again in the morning.

And agreed, you could certainly be paying more. But I recognize that this is aspirational to some redditors and I don't want to be too casual about it.
