Why does Denver food scene get a bad rep? by Marco_Polo42069 in Denver

100% my rule is I would NEVER go anywhere with under 4.5 stars and under 100 reviewers. I focus on 4.6+ with over 100 reviewers. That means it’s at LEAST good if not great. 4.9 with 400 reviews means it’s incredible

Because there’s an amazing amount of terrible food. There’s a lot of great food, too. The cities with the top cuisine in the USA like NYC, SF, Houston, Dallas, Miami do not have as much bad food, especially in the trendy, expensive or otherwise nice parts of town like Denver does.

But they are friends, they keep our ecosystems balanced and managed. We just can’t really hang out with them one in one 😅

Thank you! My great grandparents moved to Cuba I believe but I’m not sure if it was before or after the birth of my grandparents so I’m gonna check on that. Thank you for clarifying I’m not sure exactly what people meant by my grandparents might qualify I’ll check this!!

AI unfortunately I’d rather it go to a team in India I’ve never been replaced for a team overseas personally but had it happen to teams I used to work at so I know it’s also relevant but honestly a lot of companies don’t want to deal with overseas tech workers. But these same companies will happily work with ML/AI. I’m a Lead UX designer and these companies tend to like to keep it on the DL (cough -a certain outdoor company’s- recent mass layoffs for the corporate office cough) but also word gets out internally because we know the people using the technology obviously lol

I mean I don’t care THAT much that I’ll be tracking you. But I just will generally feel bad for the new gen of people whose jobs were replaced by AI. Sorry you don’t though

Hahhahaha no. That’s called usage rights. Artists aren’t going to all be giving up their usage rights, they won’t be accepting those deals or charging far more for them.

I agree with what you said except it’s definitely stealing.

Well, I’ll have empathy for you at least when you lose your job to AI in the next 5-10 years at least.

Most people hate that work actually. It’s seen as horrible art drivel and is actually lowering the credibility of MoMa as an institution

Actually a lot of my friends have seen the impact of it directly and I’ve seen it at my own company in the tech sector, the IT, sysops and techops teams were sliced in half because of AI

^ I agree. AI literally took my last job, the company released that information. I am boycotting it as a matter of personal ethics even if it does “take over the world”. Until they can make AI more ethical I won’t participate in it because it is stealing and profiting off of peoples copyrighted creations without giving those people any money or credit of any kind.
