@mattforney IMO, It was interesting when it first came out because Dan Harmon's story circle was an interesting deviation from standard 3 act structures and created a very consistent product episode to episode. Unfortunately, it got boring fast.
@RepThomasMassie I carry around a 1964 silver quarter as a demonstration aid. In 1964, the federal minimum wage was $1.25 or 5 silver quarters. Those silver quarters are worth around $10 each today... or $50/hour.

@Mefeda408@barnes_law LOL. Miranda warnings only apply if police want information gained through post-arrest questioning to be admissible in the later trial. You absolutely can be arrested without being read your Miranda warnings and not have a due process claim.
There’s the old joke: What’s the difference between God and a federal district judge? Answer: God doesn’t think he’s a federal judge. Or a different version of that joke: An angel rushes to the head of the Heavenly Host and says, “We have a problem. God has delusions of grandeur.” The head angel calmly replies, “What makes you say that?” The first angel whispers, “He’s wearing his robe and keeps imagining he’s a federal judge.”

@kenzietuff There is a "gas station gun store" line. The cities are like most others, good parts and bad parts. But, if you make it past the "line" about 30 miles out, life is pretty good.
@SkeletorAD@LPNH It's actually a game theory problem and we were the losers in this "prisoner's dilemma". We chose to cooperate and got shafted. Look at CO now. It is a true beacon of liberty. We clearly got significant gains in taxation or gun rights for cooperating with the Ds for weed.
@LPNH My fundamental problem with it is that we align with the Left on this issue but when we ally with them, it is a one-way street. Visit CO sometime. Freedom only improved for the drug addicts. Every other Libertarian position lost. We got nothing out of it.
@esrtweet@engineers_feed I do it similarly. I was a bit of a natural rebel, even in grade school, and refused to memorize the multiplication tables. I just got really good at doing the math in my head quickly, which happens to be a much more useful skill than a memorized table.
As part of preparations for America’s 250th anniversary, Interior is reviewing wildlife nomenclature to better reflect the nation’s history and character.
Following this review, the raccoon (Procyon lotor) will be renamed the Liberty Bandit, effective April 1, 2026.
LLMs are a solution in search of a problem given the investment. It reminds me of the web 3 people trying mightily to find a way to make block chain the "next big thing" and all the crazy things they came up with.
AI has improved maybe 20% of my corp job but it's certainly no revolution, it's an evolutionary improvement in computation.
@SecurityAura I'm glad someone else is having this experience. Work pays for ChatGPT and wants us to use it but it takes way too long to get a correct KQL query out of it and it always ends up being badly optimized spaghetti. Crazy how bad it is and the MS tables are so well documented
@curdmudgeon1@travis4nh I'm sure they made it and it was denied. Judges are cowards and would prefer a not guilty jury verdict as it is un-appealable. It saves face and prevents controversy like what happened in this case by putting the onus for the guilty going free on the anonymous jury.
