Troy McClure and Lionel Hutz. Legend

He’s very good in backdraft

I pretty much never see engineering salaries factored into these types of savings projects. I assume because engineers are already viewed as a sunk cost or maybe it’s just because …

I might find this ultra-productivity useful if it was at a business or side-project I owned or ran, where I have a large stake in the outcomes and there’s not enough people to do e…

Consistent driving and ride quality could be a benefit

I follow this but part of this attitude has always struck me as slightly off. Parents and others deciding what is valuable versus what isn’t. Granted draining full days in Roblox f…

Cops should also protect and serve, regardless of prosecution outcome. Granted it’s just an oath.

OpenAI/ChatGPT seem to be very creative based on variations it can make on “things” that already exist. I’m just curious if we see AI being truly creative and making something “new…
