Other than crime the only other use-case I've seen for crypto is for getting money into Russia because the sanctions mean my English teacher friend in Vladivostok can't use normal banks to accept payments for the online distance t

The other day I was having ChatGPT write some code for me and it started referencing objects and properties that didnt exist. I wish I tried correcting it. That would have been interesting.

Unfortunately these images are not going to the web, they're going into a software called ARCH which expects JPEGs specifically. And also I've been told that bad things will happen if we give ARCH files bigger than 2 megabytes. Th

I do my hobbies because if I dont I'll fill the time by smoking cigarettes which I am really trying hard not to do. I specifically engage in pointless pastimes because they have better health outcomes than spending an equivalent amount

You don't need to be a schizoaffective to develop paranoid delusions about being persecuted by hidden forces that don't exist.

The first idea I had was "don't". We have a VM where we do all of our changes and then the actual production sever is just a copy of the VM. So we test things on the VM and if it doesn't break, THEN those same changes ar

Don't let the paranoia overwhelm you. A lot of your conclusions regarding this man are bordering on delusional. You might be catching what he had.

Your suggestions are also the only way I can manage to deal with adults effectively. The only difference is that I don't have any kind of legal or biological obligation to coexist with most adults and since it really does require a lo

I try to do this as well but I still have no idea how to shop for pickles. They're sold by the fluid ounce but it's not clear how much of that weight is pickling liquid and how much is the pickles.

I think the touchbar is terrible because I'm constantly fat-fingering it causing the computer to randomly switch fonts or change directories.

I really think this information would have been much easier for me to digest as a chart rather than the current format. I had a head injury recently and my head actually hurts trying to parse and understand this information in the way it is
