I’ll keep that in mind.

I meant the throwing his life away part, because prison is full of stuff he likes.

Are you kidding? I’ll bet he loves prison:

• It’s just dudes
• Plenty of fights
• Wear the same outfit every day

I’d like to see the author prove that beetle counting is more productive than creating game tutorials. People make all kinds of baseless assumptions that are biased by their personal values.

It’s almost like you’re saying they’re intellectually dishonest perpetuators of bigoted double standards.

Yeah, but that’s not as funny

Definitely overshot the brag with 4.9 inches thick.

Is he saying he has a dick like two toilet paper rolls stacked on top of each other?

Hey isn’t that the Qunol guy?

Something I did wrong for many years, decades even, was to focus exclusively on trying to improve the areas where I struggle compared to normies. I always felt bad because I found it so hard to do simple things that were easy for most people.

Gradually, I realized there are things I can do that the normies can’t. So instead of constantly trying to redeem myself by improving the things I suck at, I focus on those things I’m really good at.

For example, if I do a job that is all delivery, where I’m just executing rote tasks that someone else has defined, I’ll struggle. If I do a job that is strategic and/or creative and involves very little rote delivery, I’ll excel.

The problem was that school is mostly rote delivery according to a fixed schedule, and early-career jobs tend to be the same. I really struggled during those times of my life. But once I got to the point where I could get more creative/strategic work, the way my brain works finally became an asset rather than a liability.

Avoiding situations that allow others to define me on their terms.

He’s doing the Lord’s work.

And I don’t mean to denigrate data science. It is important and powerful. And real machine intelligence may one day emerge from it (or data science may one day point the way). But data science just isn’t AI.

This is because the AI of today is a shit sandwich that we’re being told is peanut butter and jelly.

For those who like to party: All the current “AI” technologies use statistics to approximate semantics. They can’t just be semantic, because we don’t know how meaning works or what gives rise to it. So the public is put off because they have an intuitive sense of the ruse.

As long as the mechanics of meaning remain a mystery, “AI” will be parlor tricks.

If you’re hypothetical, then yes, by implication. 🤗

You remember when it was beans? Those were the days.

Let’s say, just hypothetically speaking, that I had a friend who doesn’t even know what brainrot is. Would this friend, who totally exists and is definitely not me, be brainrot?

Correct.

Pretty sure platonically means something else at a sausage party.

Mmmm, tires
