In my experience, lazy people who already love eating and watching TV will double down on this behavior when using cannabis. It can make you feel comfortable and OK with things, and also triggers the appetite. So instead of becoming satiate

Don't discount the creativity, intelligence, and dedication it takes to create something like this. Chances are you actually can't , even if you did make it a priority.

The odds for a face on a d10 would be 1 in 9 (1:9). It's different than probability (1/10 = .1)

Nothing, it's a fine reference. But I could see people wanting to skip it in the top results.

There really is something nauseating or repulsive about this. I've had the same feeling with other ML generated images. It's alien and familiar at the same time.

A friend had an explanation for this, and I really agreed with him. The antianxiety effects of THC arrive after the initial high. The beginning is a spike of feelings that a lot of people find to be intense... and leads to paranoia and an i

So envious you are friends with such a stellar musician. I've been blown away by "In the Moment". It's 21st century jazz and a huge inspiration.

I use Netbeans for C/C++ development (shocking, I know). Originally I was using it as an Eclipse alternative at a Java gig. After moving into embedded dev I just decided to try and stick with it and see how it goes. It worked. Benefits

I've always been fascinated by dynamical systems, attractors, the "edge of chaos". I was surprised and delighted to find these topics towards the end of a neural nets textbook. That led to a google rabbit hole and a late nigh

Great article. My favorite part was learning a new word: grognard! Makes me sad that I only got into the series at Civ5, which I enjoyed every bit of except for the ultra creepy 3D models of the leaders.... totally unnecessary in this kind

Well it goes a bit deeper than socializing. I said separated from all, but that's including "grace", which if I remember correctly is a connection to god that is available to humans during life.

That is intense. I hope that's the only time you have to experience that. Speaking of hell, it's actually similar to what my Catholic school taught us hell would be like. No physical pain or brimstone... Just your mind, alone and

I disagree. While you can't deny the supremacy of the elite coastal universities, there do exist great schools in the Midwest: Uni. of Illinois, Chicago, Case Western, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio State, Northwestern, etc. Oh and probabl

If you enjoy SimCity then definitely check out skylines. It's maybe not as realistic in some ways, and I think it's too easy, but there are lots of mods available so the possibilities really open up.
