Yes there are a lot of negatives to drinking but when you do drink socially do you:

• talk more with your friends ?
• open up more about subjects you may not talk about when sober ?
• make plans to hang out again ?
• meet new people ?

You may drink twice as much and suffer more health issues but you actually gain the social benefits of alcohol, which are real. Without those social benefits alcohol just becomes an undeniably bad thing, ie. Drinking alone.

Maybe they did, guess i meant dark web market links

Is this liberty leading the people pre-transition?

Probably will get it anyway, companies don’t like to build and maintain software for two different markets so they tend to just follow the regulations of the strictest market, especially if those regulations don’t really cut into there bottom line like this one.

desires a system where the larger and stronger crabs should have their pick of the housing market and less powerful (smaller) crabs simply have to take whatever smaller, less desirable housing is left over.

Power and strength have nothing to do with it, they aren’t fighting over who gets the bigger shell, they’re trading.

Smaller doesn’t mean less desirable, otherwise the small crabs would not give up the big shell voluntarily. They want a shell that fits there size, not the biggest one.

This system takes into account size as opposed to our current housing system, which is all about power (in the form of wealth). We’d be better off if we considered size as we have a lot of small families in big houses (wealthy empty nesters) and big families in small houses (poorer families just starting off in a small apt) and redistribution those could help both parties.

The problem is that we are in a “bigger is better” mindset, and that empty nest family doesn’t want to give up their house even though they don’t need it.

Good, now do the authorized use of military force from 2001 that every recent president has used to bomb whoever they want.

Though I guess it doesn’t matter as trumps ust bombing Venezuelan ships now without even citing it.

Sucks to be Mexican. The world cups finally coming to your country after 40 years and the tickets are too expensive for the locals to afford.

Will probably be great in Mexico and Canada, they’ll probably fill the stadiums there with the people who don’t want to go to the US to see it.

I can see how this may be useful. My understanding is that this is go lang and the person created a wrapper type UUID and this function takes the go standard library uuid.UUID and returns the wrapped UUID.

The wrapped UUID could be useful as you can then define methods for it like toInt() or something to make it implement some ID interface you have set up. It’s a common pattern in go to create a thin wrapper around an imported type so you can implement all the methods required for some interface you defined. It does make naming those thin wrappers hard because what are you supposed to name the struct that just contains a uuid?

Seems like it could be like music production software becoming widely available. Now you don’t need to get a drummer, a bass player etc. Together to make music, you can just make it at home on your computer. It enables lower level people to get off the ground as they now have the tools that the pros do, you want a saxophone but don’t know anyone in town who can play or can’t afford one, just use a synth that sounds like one. Once you get signed though and you have a label giving you studio time you might hire an actual saxophone player because it sounds better.

Same with movies, AI could be helpful in making small low/no budget indie movies, but I don’t think it’s at the same quality as real actors for big budget movies where people expect more, so maybe the wealthy studio execs won’t benefit from it much right now.

I assume they already did this for advertising purposes, just like every other platform trying to guess your demographics to sell you more useless shit.

We actually don’t, the guy wasn’t that progressive and was only advocating for it because the cost of renovating and maintaining that stretch of road was unjustifiable since the dunes constantly migrate and cover it.

The guy was actually more on the right by san francisco standards and got elected fear mongering on crime during the post blm reaction.

He didn’t do it to make waves, the city voted and passed a referendum to close the highway and make a park, he just endorsed the referendum.

It also didn’t delete the ability for people in the sunset or the Richmond to travel, there’s a parallel road a couple blocks inland that is actually more connected to the highway network. People mainly went down the great highway because it was scenic, not because it was the best route.

It was also just a bad road for cars, the dunes on the beach would migrate all the time and the city would have to pay to clean up the sand. It’s better for pedestrians and cyclists who care less about a bit of sand on the road.

fueled by many of the same people who tossed out three liberal school board members and politically progressive San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin in 2022. Engardio, a crime victims’ advocate in his first term, supported those recalls and was elected that year to a seat on the city’s Board of Supervisors.

Live by the recall die by the recall

They can’t, the park was created by a referendum by the whole city, which passed last year with the more populace east side voting for it and the more suburban west side, where the park is, voting against. This recall was more about spite from the West siders mad that they lost and that their representative didn’t back them then actually trying to change anything.

the flying “car” in question. Just seems like a quadcopter to me, but I guess that’s why I’m not in marketing.

In the senate*

Rashida Tlaib has been calling out israels bullshit since day one, and is left of Bernie on a couple other issues like abolishing ice.

IMO, the algorithm is overhyped, and the secret to tik toks success is its scale. If you gave metas algorithm the same amount of data to train on and the same amount of content to recommend, it would be equally as addictive. It might suck at first but give it a couple months and people won’t be able to tell the difference between the old algorithm and whatever oracle creates.

It’s just like chatgpt, given the same set of public data any company with sufficient engineering and compute resources can make there own model that performs very similarly.

In an ideal world we’d have algorithmic choice, like in bluesky sort of, and we could actually compare different ones, but that would cut into the profits of the data monoplies.
