59,400 - It said I'm a person of few words. It also recommended I read a dictionary. I feel some kind of way about that. :D Fun!

I knew I shared a name with a former NBA Forward, but I did not know about some of the other well-known figures. Sadly (or thankfully?) I'm not listed anywhere, even in the halluci…

You certainly stumbled onto it much sooner in life than I did. It wasn't until I had children in my late 30s that this dawned on me - and has perplexed me ever since. Funny indeed.…

Oh wow, I hadn't thought of taste, but you're exactly right. Fascinating subject.

Amazing. I'm so glad to have a name for this.

I'm sure this isn't an original thought, but I wonder how others see colors. Irrespective of color blindness, is what I know as red appear as blue to someone else? How would you ev…

This discussion has been particularly insightful. I'm 47 and have been drinking 2 to 3 Mtn Dew Kickstarts a day for probably 10 years. I don't feel high, or jittery, or like I'm bo…

"X is just old" is a tired criticism of most things in my experience. Bloated would've sufficed, even if it's subjective.

The issue I had with RAG when I tried building our own internal chat/knowledge bot was pulling in the relevant knowledge before sending to the LLM. Domain questions like "What is C…

And then Trump can sign the checks again.... Sarcasm aside, I agree the refunds should go back to consumers, not the importers. I don't have a source, but I have to imagine the lio…

What businesses were legitimately going to go bankrupt by the increased tariffs? I'm not defending the tariffs, mind you, but I don't buy that every company had to increase prices …

I had the same thought. Even if it wasn't the original intent, it sure is a preferable outcome.

What player is going to step in and do what Anthropic wouldn't? Or, worse, will the DoW try to author its own AI to go where private AI won't?

Very uncultured and untraveled caucasian here. I got 10/18, surprising myself. Probably plenty of luck, but at least 5 or 6 I was quite confident about. Not sure how.

The article has mounds of data that to speak to exactly how the clothing sizes ARE the issue. Inconsistencies within brands, across brands, shifting vanity sizes, and shapes design…

But they're not lowest-common-denominator products. If they were, clothing designers would be tailoring clothes for a rectangular figure. The article clearly shows that only 12% of…

My disconnect is I can't read sheet music. So I can hear it, then memorize where it is on the piano/keyboard... but that just teaches you play piano by ear. It doesn't teach you ho…

Any tips or resources on how to get started? I drew a lot of comics as a kid/teen, and I've done 3d modeling as a hobbyist. But using physical media for sculpting has always seemed…

I didn't intend to imply "best" even in the scope of a team, let alone every software engineer in the world. But, I understand your point and it's fair.

manage.py makemigrations myapp --empty --name add_some_view (in the migration file) operations=[migrations.RunSQL("Create View some_view AS ....", "DROP VIEW IF EXISTS...."] (in yo…

So you're openly saying you're fine with quantity over quality.... in software engineering? That's fine for a MVP, maybe, but nothing beyond on that IMHO unless they're throw away …

Not to pick apart your analogy, but asserting that atheists haven't tried religion is misinformed.

What languages and frameworks? What is the domain space you're operating in? I use Cursor to help with some tasks, but mainly only use the autocomplete. It's great; no complaints. …

That is where content rating should come in, and games should be reviewed by Roblox staff before being approved. Then, Roblox age restrictions could play a role in keeping a 7-year…

I know it's just a google away, but I use Arc and I'm not in the loop on them poo-pooing on their users. Can you elaborate?
