No shit

And Ukraine

You’re right that I assumed you were in the USA, but as you said, no country is without racism. Unfortunately, you’re also right that It’s nowhere near as bad in many other countries as it is here (unfortunate that it’s gotten so bad in the US, not that other countries aren’t on the same page).

*you will anyway

The only way “they” will is if they’re white. And not just any white, the right kind of white. The kind of white that white can be proud of.

*disclaimer: I felt fucking gross writing that, and feel it’s my responsibility to say FUCK RACISTS.

For anyone wondering what the fuck that title meant:

OpenAI research lead Lisa Fulford told Wired that she used Agent to order “a lot of cupcakes,” which took the tool about an hour, because she was very specific about the cupcakes.

“It was easier than me doing it myself,” Fulford said, “because I didn’t want to do it.”

I was going off the first large scale successful implementation of electric streetcars, not the first streetcar.

Frank Sprague installed a complete system of electric streetcars in Richmond, Virginia, in 1888. This was the first large-scale and successful use of electricity to run a city’s entire system of streetcars.

That was 70 years ago. The gap between now and the 1950s is larger than the gap between the first successful implementation of electric street cars and the 1950s.

I went to work for a company in an entry-level, unskilled position. That company had a mentality of hiring from within and training for positions rather than hiring qualified external candidates. Because of that company, I managed to develop a career and am currently making over 6 times what I was earning when I started there 12 years ago. I’m no longer at the same company, but I am incredibly grateful for how lucky I was for things to fall into place the way they did.

I don’t know who that is.

I really love her

It was okay. Nothing exciting, but one aspect of it that I did like is that you can choose to watch your choices happen in real time after you finish a level, which - although not the smoothest - does actually make it feel like John Wick just rolled through.

That’s not remotely surprising, but I would like to know how many Democrats voted no.

Becomming a parent slaps you with another big load as well

Japanese people tend to make a big deal out of the “human touch,” especially when it comes to service

Aren’t they the ones that first came up with robot servers in restaurants? Or maybe that was South Korea?

My immediate first thought as well. You could tell me he was 40 years younger and I would believe you.

With the prevalence of AI generated images, I’m really curious how they filter out fake evidence from people looking to cash in on that sizeable reward. If it did happen, I hope they get everything they need to ruin that person’s life.

ACLU and NPR are my top 2.

Well, shit. I pulled out my laptop to grab the scripts and it looks like the extension was updated and it wiped them out. I didn’t have them backed up anywhere else, so I guess their gone unless I find myself back on the apps again (please, god, no…).

Ireland. I’m a firm believer that if you move to a region that speaks a different language, you need to make a genuine effort to learn that language. After having 3 years of foreign language (including a year of Gaelic when I lived in Ireland as a child for a year), I know it’s not my thing, so an English speaking country is a requirement for me. Ireland is gorgeous, and still in the EU. Scotland would also be top of the list if they split from the UK and joined the EU.

OkCupid was amazing 15 years ago, but it’s pretty shit now. For what OP is looking for, it’s probably still the best option, but it’s a very low bar.

OP, if you want to check out OkCupid, message me. I can set you up with a couple of browser scripts I wrote to improve the website experience. One will show you your matches’ photos. You won’t be able to view their profiles, but people that like you will generally show up in the profiles you’re shown pretty quickly, so it’s easy to find them. The other will need to be slightly tailored to you if you want to use it, but it will automatically skip any profiles that are showing to you that don’t meet your minimum requirements, and even alert you if one of them liked you instead of just skipping it, just in case you’d like to give it a closer look before you make a final decision.

Edit: Based on my experience the last time I was on the apps, the best one was Hinge, but I’ve been off of them for a year now. It’s also entirely app based.
