I seriously will send mine to a satanic charter school if this hits my state.

In every job that must be done

There is an element of fun

You find the fun and snap! The job's a game

And every task you undertake

Becomes a piece of cake

A lark! A spree!

It's very clear to see

That a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

The medicine go down, the medicine go down

Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

In a most delightful way

A robin feathering his nest

Has very little time to rest

While gathering his bits of twine and twig

Though quite intent in his pursuit

He has a merry tune to toot

He knows a song

Will move the job along

Oh, a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

The medicine go down, the medicine go down

Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down

In a most delightful way

The honey bees that fetch the nectar

From the flowers to the comb

Never tired of ever buzzing to and fro

Because they take a little nip

From every flower that they sip

And hence (And hence)

They find (They find)

Their task is not a grind...

The 7 dwarves talked about "whistle while you work", many others have said music.

Personally I gamify tasks and try to make them more efficient, or if they're maxed out, enjoy the time I've saved and the efficient task and smooth running of a process. Then the focus becomes the process rather than the sometimes tedious nature of things.

OpenAI's events of last year has me just slightly less than impressed at the ability of a non-profit board/org to be able to contain/control the wild efforts of capital when it matters.

Reduced transparency while increasing security, name a better authoritarian state combo!

NYT suppressing genocide coverage in Palestine and questioning anything but lockstep support for Israel then wondering why authoritarians messaging landing so we'll.

NYT are clowns, lost all credibility after backing invasion of Iraq in 2003 despite no evidence and UN security resolution against it.

You catch on too quickly.

You can no longer choose the shapes, AI hallucinates them for you. If they don't fit your desired shape you can pay-per-side-polygon to have a fixed number of sided shape added. mS pAInt

Agree, and "defer" can mean organizationally as in needing someone else's input, knowledge, support, buy-in...vs. running an autocratic hierarchy, which the weak and stupid prefer. Defer also means acknowledging the value and contributions of others and compensating them accordingly.

If I had to boil a lot of the churn in the water about AI, it's by stupid people trying to sell even stupider, desperate people the idea the immense knowledge of the earth (or even that of their accounting or customer service practices) will be within their grasp and they won't need others anymore. Of course, some say great cut headcount, because they didn't understand the work others do in the first place.

While most won't fully take an approach as extreme, and any AI use will likely be more organic, there will be outliers who receive the bulk of the press.

Saying you don't need X position in early 2025 based on the state of AI is like declaring in 1996 libraries are dead.

Malibu hills fires happened almost every year 20 years ago. Maybe not in areas with homes but it's hardly surprising from the outside looking in. Still pity the folks.

Is this the same exploit that we read about I'm like October that the vendor didn't even give credit to the person who brought it to them and they ignored?

Absent a functioning, fair political and judicial system, all sorts of things are going to start reappearing on the US landscape that have been dormant for generations. Very doubtful in the current environment, but when transparent political retribution is transpiring and powerful, rich folks are on the receiving end, there will come a point where drastic measures will become among the most reasonable options they have.

Lol, MGM owns most of the strip and it's entire enterprise value is ~$40B. Not market cap, that's only $9B. In the year of our Lord 2025, I'm not sure I see courts making for a fair fight when you throw in politically targeted retribution that would come.

-you won't believe this shit

Sounds like a money maker. Now just as AI to it and you're set with your 2025 business model

I didn't advocate for a slow response, history shows people just like to boil like frogs as were very adaptable, for good and bad. Id love it if swift, collective action were our norm.

Just wait until toilet paper real estate starts being used.

It's not cheap, unless you count the international service that is included and use it. Compared to the price a US prepaid plan like mint or visible, it's perfectly cromulent.

Prices of phones and aircraft carriers are about the same in 2025

it's how they won't the battle for the internet

It's how they won all status quo benefits to them. They also know status quo changes and why they put so much energy, effort, influence and time into continuing to try to make things worse so the likelihood of large-scale change decreases.

However, at a certain point, history shows people will revolt. The question is when, and how much of the horrific foundation that has been laid with people used to it can be ripped up before our short attention slams turn back to other interests?
