“What are you talking about? You’re not different. Everyone feels that way, we just all learned how to deal with it ourselves.”

— Undiagnosed parents

They earned enough in this year to pay $2,000 to every US resident and still make a profit.

Time to eat the rich.

Even if there’s such a thing as a program without bugs, you’d still be overlooking one crucial detail - no matter the method, the end point of cybersecurity has to interface with humans. Humans are SO much easier to hack than computers.

Let’s say you get a phone call from your boss - It’s their phone number and their voice, but they sound a bit panicked. “Hey, I’m just about to head into a meeting to close a major deal, but my laptop can’t access the server. I need you to set up a temporary password in the next two minutes or we risk losing this deal. No, I don’t remember my backup - it’s written down in my desk but the meeting is at the client’s office.”

You’d be surprised how many people would comply, and all of that can be done by AI right now. It’s all about managing risk - there’s never going to be a foolproof system.

“Oh, finally Tylenol is suing over all of the false narratives about their completely safe product.” re-reads headline “Wait… Oh. Oh, we’re fucked.”

It largely depends on if you can afford to have a room dedicated as your home office.

Working/relaxing cannot happen in the same space. Our brains are not wired to do such a dramatic difference in mental activity in the same location. That’s also why bedrooms should be used for sleeping and fucking ONLY. Once you start reading/scrolling in bed, your brain makes that connection, “Oh, I’m in bed, I should doomscroll for the next 3 hours” instead of “Oh, I’m in bed. I should sleep.”

Not to mention that using ANY mark is considered a signature, no matter the method of affixing it to the document. It’s an ADA compliance thing - you can’t discriminate based on the method of signing.

Hank Green mentioned doing this in his standup special, and it really made me feel at ease. He was going through his cancer diagnosis/treatment and the intake questionnaire asked him if he thought about suicide recently. His response was, “Yeah, but only in the fun ways”, so he checked no. His wife got concerned that he joked about that and asked him what that meant. “Don’t worry about it - it’s not a problem.”

Schrödinger’s AI: It’s so smart it can build perfect security, but it’s too dumb to figure out how to break it.

It’s only 3 pentagons, 1 hexagon, 1 triangle and 3 rectangles for a total of 20 component triangles. Easy!

Not to mention the confusion upon first reading it as “He spreads in the bastards”.

Sure seems like a distraction from the Epstein files.

Well, to be clear - not everyone gets a credit. I was recently an extra in a movie and even though I have a still image from it with me in the background and an A-list celebrity in the foreground, that’s the only proof I’ll ever have of it. Movies take a LOT of people to make, and it’s important to give credit to everyone involved.

It’s also the same at plays where they bring out / point out the crew to take a bow - They’re just as essential to making the art, so it’s important to give them credit too.

Not sarcasm, unfortunately. I remember it as clearly as the marker and eraser… I mean “marker-juana” and “eraser-beer” we used to practice saying no to.

It’s because it’s a chemical that physically alters your body.

The entire class said it wasn’t a drug and got into an argument with the cop. We all knew that even if you label it “a drug”, it’s not like the actual drugs we’re talking about. No one is out there abusing shampoo.

It’s really no wonder that taking a D.A.R.E. class increases your likelihood of using drugs in adulthood.

That’s horrible! Truly awful! Which bars, specifically, should I be avoiding?

D.A.R.E. taught me that shampoo was a drug.

I stopped caring about being labeled as a ‘drug addict’ after learning that if that applies to everyone who regularly showers.

I was worried after reading this article and the gov.uk article where every instance of ‘rapist’ is assumed to be male and every victim is female, but the wording of the actual amendment seems to be gender-neutral. Seems straightforward, and also surprising that something like this wasn’t on the books already.

… What? Why are you making this suddenly personal?

You said it yourself. He’s dedicated to HIS body - not yours.
