I thought gambling addicts were broke?

Yeah that’s as close to a dog than it is to a trout.

Back in my middle school days I’d crank the DPI of my scanner to the max and take super detailed images of bills. It tried its best at printing them too, but you couldn’t fool a person with them. Some kids did fool coin exhange machines with homebrewn bills though. These days I don’t think you can even scan the bills and the scanner calls interpol / secret service etc. for even trying.

Not Russian but.

Stick in the eye to the one who remembers the old.

Spring of pussies.

Not all the Moomins are in the valley.

So if the employer suddenly decides to e.g. start paying you less, how do you prove how much your pay should be?

I don’t have to eat in a couple of days aftering getting the #40 so it’s actually pretty good value.

We’re hitting logarithmic scaling with the model trainings. GPT-5 is going to cost 10x more than GPT-4 to train, but are people going to pay $200 / month for the gpt-5 subscription?

two oil filter wrenches?

IIRC you need double the compute for 10% improvement in a model and they’ve already computed quite a bit.

interesting that charcoal is banned but gas is fine. I’ve never had the grease accumulated on the bottom of the grill catch fire on a charcoal grill, but with a gas grill…

Peculiar how Kamala’s stance on Israel / Palestine shifted after she became the presidential candidate. It’s almost if there’s like a powerful group of people preventing politicians that are critical towards Israel from gaining influence. Probably just some crazy conspiracy theory bullshit though.

I can’t understand climate change denial. I was born in the 80’s and when I was a kid the summer was considered warm if there was a week or two of day time highs of at least 25°C. Now a summer with two months of at least 25°C is normal. Spring has sort of almost disappeared, one day you’re skiing and two weeks later it’s summer and cycling season already.

I’m not really complaining, the weather here is much better compared to what it was when I was young, but it’s definitely concerning and to claim it hasn’t changed in the last 20 years is just plain denial or insanity.

which one of his sponsors is profiting from the embargo?

for me that’s when the nightmare begins

yeah if something gets through my adblocks I’ll just watch / do something else instead.

You should check out which movies came out in 1999.

Losing my job and seeing there’s about 100 times more people applying for IT jobs than there are IT jobs made me go from “maybe” to “nah” in the procreation question. Too many people already procreated too many times before me.

AI is not generating nearly enough revenue from the actual end users at the moment. Companies are betting on things being somehow different in the future, but my bet is price hikes and enshittification hitting the AI services when VC money starts running out.

what’s stopping him?
