I love his videos. The history portion in the middle is usually entertaining and narrated well enough on its own that you almost forget about the food/recipe content, so it's a nice treat when he switches back to talking about the recipe he's recreated at the end.

I can only speak for myself, but there are plenty of times when the plans sound great in theory, a few days/weeks ahead of the thing. But then when the thing is imminent, that excitement turns to anxiety. It usually has nothing to do with not wanting to do the thing or see the people, but some more gut-level aversion to having your time pre-committed on a day where your body feels the need to just chill or recharge your social battery.

Sauerkraut, smoked sausage, onion, a bit of sharp cheddar, and a drizzle of franks red hot is honestly a god-tier pizza.

So you're proudly uninformed because you don't need to be... but are also informed enough to state that this whole thing is overblown... based on having learned one fact about the matter...? Pick a lane!

I try to make it work for me--I really do. But it's just never worth the time & effort.

Recently, I asked our company-hosted instance of Copilot to draft up an application note for a new product we are releasing to help get my documentation juices flowing. This product is well documented on our internal sharepoint/teams/outlook/onedrive servers that Copilot scrapes, as well as some public facing press releases and marketing content, so I asked Copilot to draft up an app note for this product specifically by name.

Its first draft had tons and tons of info that was just straight-up wrong or super vague. So I refined the prompt asking it to cite sources for each paragraph. Lo and behold, there were 9 citations, and 8 of them were general technology references or competitor products.

Maybe it's a skill issue, but I can't get over the fact that this shit is not just so factually wrong, but so confidently wrong.

I get what OP is going for, but did they not second-guess using a meme template that suggests Hellen Keller and Harriet Tubman were literal piles of garbage? Lmao

I'm not sure if I pulled down that exact compilation, but it includes the videos, yeah I enjoy those old music videos as much or more than the show itself!

This might be AI slop, but let's be real for a second... It's indistinguishable in concept and execution from a slightly absurdist Tumblr meme.

I think what happened is:

-Initially it was terrible, but it was not imposed on you, so you just ignored it and kept typing as if it weren't even there, unless you legit could not figure out how to spell a word.

-Then it got better and gave decent suggestions occasionally, so people started integrating into their typing workflow as an assistant to quickly complete common words, or to figure out longer/more complex words.

-Somewhere along the way it began to impose itself on your typing to the point where it was expected that you would accept its suggestions the majority of the time. So even if it's right 98% of the time, having to manually fight with it every other sentence is a MAJOR hassle

As a simple illustration of the last point, I remember the default behavior was that if you started to backspace an autocorrected word, the system assumed it got it wrong and let you fix it. Now the default behavior is to ignore you and keep autocorrecting until you tap a special key to insist you know what you are doing (at least on my Samsung phone)

Elon Musk is the homeopathic principle applied to leadership.

This is missing a panel in the middle:

That's Thallium (Tl). Titanium (Ti) is a happy shade of green.

(I'm only replying because I thought that same thing at first glance)
