Targeted attack = someone gave them a coupon for a free car wash and the car subsequently burned to the ground?

Nevertheless, I stand by my view. We are already trying our hardest to make the atmosphere replicate the atmosphere of the K-T extinction.

I get more pessimistic every year and I started out extremely pessimistic. I think humanity going extinct in my lifetime is more likely than the US getting single payer in my lifetime.

I have no confidence that medicare will still exist. It could be gone by next month.

I don’t think any amount of achievable retirement savings is enough to give me confidence that I could cover escalating health care costs enough that I could retire. Even if I had $10M in the bank, I would worry that the cost of health care will rise fast enough to impoverish me.

What does he think “illegal” means? Is he getting rid of the first amendment?

Looks a lot like my kitty.

Test only on dev hardware because production hardware is too expensive to waste on developers. No idea why the software runs better on dev hardware than production. They’re kind of similar.

Trump changes constitution to allow himself additional terms. Monkey paw curls. Obama term 3 confirmed.

I’m kind of hoping Trump kicks the bucket before the end of this term. Keep feeding him hamberders.

I used to get insatiable thirst in the middle of the night. Then I got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and got my blood sugar under control and it doesn’t happen so much anymore.

They don’t even meow to each other, just to humans. They know what they are about.

Used to be Dallas was pretty famous- Kennedy shooting, cheerleaders, and a titular TV show.

I’d say Salem, Massachusetts (pop just under 45k) is pretty famous thanks to the witch trials.

As someone who has done some hand coding of AVX-512, I appreciate their willingness to take this on. Getting the input vectors setup correctly for the instructions can be a hassle, especially when the input dataset is not an even multiple of 64.

I have a long list of people I would execute if I could get away with it. The transgressions that get you on the list are numerous and varied.

To be clear, sometimes authority bias is good and proper. For instance, valuing the opinion of a climate scientist who has been studying climate chaos for thirty years more than your Aunt who saw Rush Limbaugh say climate change is a hoax in the 1990s is normal and rational.

Basically, authority bias as a reasoning flaw stems from misidentifying who is authoritative on a subject.

They’ll also try to linear fit even the most obvious exponential curve.

There is a reason it is called a scrum.

How are they shocked by anything any more? Ho hum, my world is full of carcinogenic hazards at every turn. The ocean is borderline too acidic to support life any more. The glaciers are melting far faster than our models predicted (because any model that predicted these rates was discarded as obviously wrong, politically unpalatable, and likely to prevent the receipt of future grants. Melting arctic permafrost now emits more green house gasses than Japan (#5 emitting nation). Except the worst and you won’t be disappointed.

Like blowing up a daycare because someone you tortured said Hamas was there? At least the Mossad is actually in the building.

People over 80 don’t have as much of a stake in the future. Maybe they should lose the vote?
