OP rewatching TNG season 5 episode 2 (Darmok), his questions answered

The cockatiel has been starting every day by singing loudly in his cage, especially when the dog enters the room. He's still madly in love with her. Unfortunately I don't know if the dog even acknowledges the cockatiel as a living being (we never let him out of the cage while the dog is around as she is quite destructive).

The dog is getting old last week she had a bad leg. The vet said it was probably because of her age, so he gave us medication to prevent arthritis. She's all good now. Yesterday she had a zoomies session like I've never seen before, she somehow managed to push my mattress almost entirely out of the bed frame in a single jump while me and my sister were laughing so hard we were crying.

Maybe I am in a different environment (particularly not being American), but the old scientists still exist and are still hard at work. In fact, all scientists I know (and I work in academia) care very little for misinformation on their day to day lives. They'll make fun of it, but don't have any more contact with them than anyone else. They still spend most of their time working on their actual projects. The only thing that changed is that now they're bending over backwards to include AI in their grants to make sure they're accepted, but having to include the latest buzzwords is nothing new.

Science communicators, on the other hand, yeah, those probably have their hands full with fixing misinformation.

Did you write this? This is gold

You just wanted to use an unique example. It's a honest mistake.

Wait, didn't the Greeks famously lose at Thermopylae? They'd turn it around later but that's one of the most famous "celebrated losses" in history

I propose dividing people into penised people and penisless people. I'm sure vagina is banned too but I can't remember

Spacing constraints led to accidental French in "Reset_Contage~~m~~"

And yet never implemented! Good guy Sony getting a patent so nobody else will do this

I once heard a professor of physics tell us that paradoxes were just questions posed incorrectly (paraphrasing since we weren't speaking English, sorry if I wrote it in a confusing way) and I've never stopped thinking about it that way

I'm sure this is true, but the post is from 2020, predating most people's concerns about AI data scraping.

Which just goes to show how most people are slow to catch on, since the idea of scraping social media for AI training has been around since Charles Babbage proposed it in a reddit post in 1846.

Always one of the first things I install with a new Arch Linux install! Not because it's useful or anything, I'm not delusional, but because it's hella cool
