Does that work for other things? Can I just say “I had a different view of that” and get away with whatever it was?

It amuses me to no end: in college I was a total emacs person, and now I’m a total vi person. There might be dozens of us! I think both editors have their flaws, I just know the native vi keybindings better at the moment.

I don’t know if it’ll help any, but I maintain a solid handful of group chats with friends of mine from years long past. I don’t have a social media pretense at all, and the “intimate” nature of a “raw” group chat has helped me, personally,

Using this line of reasoning, you might as well go back to Cain and Able.

Were that true, I doubt all the bribery and corruption would have been allowed to destroy their military equipment. I’m surprised they were able to shoot a plane down at all.

I did something like that once too, a long time ago. And because of that I see syntax errors of such I’ll within seconds now, having learned once the hard way.

I’m not sure why this was down-modded, it is quite accurate.

I know a lot of people who dropped out of CS in college. Not a single one dropped out because of a semicolon syntax issue.

It’s too bad they don’t make this easier on developers, Apple. Is there a reason I don’t see?

I’d be quite interested in comparing notes with you on this, I have also been very deep down this rabbit hole. Some dark, dark things happen under the guise of religion.

Rarely have I met someone at a climbing gym who was a jerk. This is solid advice.

To be fair, I qualified the whole thing with “I asked a bot” so I can say I learned a valuable lesson as to the value of LLMs. I doubt anyone reading this will believe me, today is the second day I have ever tried using an LLM. Talk about a

Before sports gambling was legal on apps (in some states) I witnessed the same thing. That was the poor point I was trying to make about prohibition. Similar to the war on drugs I suppose.

I had a tab open and asked a question. It was simpler than running the calculation 3 times. I do in fact understand basic math. Merry Christmas!

I asked a bot to do the math for me (if anyone was as curious as I was): 93 cents would turn into approximately $17.88 trillion with compound interest of 3% over 1000 years. 93 cents would turn into approximately $4.28 billion with compound
