This is the accepted writing style at my work, and it’s been driving me nuts for years. I’m talking about the copy we put on all our public facing materials. Even our resident linguists hate it, but apparently someone high up thinks it’s industry standard.
Remembering this just made me happier to be leaving soon. They’re so resistant to challenging entrenched habits. I should have seen these signs when I started.
The trick is for those other AIs to reserve a few bucks, so they can repeat the process but this time cash out early. Keep repeating until everybody wins.
Just ask the AI how to turn $1 into $100M with high frequency trading!
Sometimes it clicks if you graph it out with the confusing values on axes.
The corporate memphis version is somehow more disturbing than the original.
I’ve started adding chopped broccoli into the rice cooker with rice and quinoa. It adds a lot of flavour, and about as cheap as a superfood can get.
You could have a FODMAP intolerance.
I’ll say the obvious because of where we are. Lemmy Kilmister.
Peep Show is my human litmus test. Seeing how people react to that show can tell you a lot about them.
Just brainstorming a semi-plausible explanations here. What if the variation is due to massive portals/wormholes to other planets? If you’re standing near one that goes to a place with much higher gravity when it opens up, it could cause you to be pulled toward it, or increase gravity around that area. If these portals are kept secret, the gravity fluctuations as they open and close might appear to be as random as weather patterns.
Could be an interesting plot point too, if your story includes races that have secretly come through these portals. Their existence could be discovered by triangulating the gravity changes during an event. Lots of interesting possibilities.
Unit test dummy data is full of it. Need an arbitrary date? Pick a special birthday. Location? Wherever you first met.
Not the most public dedication, but perhaps more impactful than yet another song about the one that got away.
They will be generating it themselves soon enough. I contributed some stock photos in the past. They recently sent me info about their new contribution pipeline, for content that may not pass the usual quality threshold, but will help train the models. If they do it right, who knows, maybe they can get better results worth paying for.
You think he would just turn this company into an X-rated - oh no that’s what he’s doing isn’t it?
Programming typefaces with ligatures are a step in this direction.
I would try this in something like Haskell, where some of the more exotic character sequences get tricky to recognise.
Unison might be the best language to test this in. Having identifiers separate from the actual definitions, you can call anything whatever you want.
While still expecting to get paid.
This would change my life more than any conventional super power.
If it’s just enough to beat out the house advantage, it might be all you need.
It’s like how when you were a kid, you thought quicksand was something you would need to be aware of as an adult in the big wide world. In my undergrad, mod everywhere. Very important knowledge. Now not so much.
I don’t know which was first, but around 4 or 5 years old I had a bunch of dreams that I confused with reality. They were so vivid, even now when I’m back in that town I half expect to see these impossible things.
A towering rock garden in the park, a hair comb shaped like an ice block, a man in a beefeater costume who gave rides in his horse drawn cart, a singing black cat on the fence of that house on the corner,…
Similar to that. Nouns that have a somewhat specific meaning in our business context, like Investor, Adviser, Product, Portfolio, etc.
