  • I don't care what song it is, if the place I worked at played one song on an endless loop, by the end of the day I would run screaming from the building. Think about it - you'd be hearing that song in your sleep.

  • Beatles songs like Yesterday seem to have held up pretty well.

  • Oh man, probably not since the 90s.

  • I'm lucky to have a smallish appetite, which I think of as a superpower - I can't even eat an entire Whopper, or typical adult-size burger. I don't how anybody can put away a second one.

  • Not exactly. In base 1 they don't have to be in a row because the order doesn't matter. For example, 16 could be 16 ones in a row, or 4 rows of 4 ones, 2 rows of 8, or 16 in a circle, an X, or a completely disorderly bunch.

  • Knowing which way you're facing also gives you this power.

  • Konami lite!

  • Humans crash cars all the time, and yet I still know people who are just so chuffed about "not having to drive" because they're going in their friend's car.

  • Notice the graph peaks in the teens, when most people's fun and social life also peaks. I was an introverted high school nerd and barely remember the music from that time, then in my late 20s got into doing theatre - suddenly had a thriving social life full of parties, dating, friends, fun... now it's decades later and the music of that era is by far my favorite.

  • I believe you, but that made about as much sense to me as when Wesley saves the ship by reversing the polarity of the navigational deflector array.

  • I miss Norm so bad. The wisdom of the ages packed into a guy you could work on a lawn mower with.

  • up down up down left right left right A B

  • One time a TSA guy started to open my wife's carry-on, which she had packed VERY tightly. She said, "Careful, it might explode." This got a raised eyebrow.

  • Just hold down ESC while it loads. Secret l33t haxxor trick, don't tell anyone.

  • friendly reminder that what you think is a clever WiFi or Bluetooth name probably isn’t

    Nonsense, Your Honor. As evidence I present Promised LAN, Nacho Wifi, and Hurts When IP.

  • Ran across this comment while revisiting my old posts. I never heard of the Chinese room argument about machine intelligence, but I think there's a much simpler test. If you come across a very intelligent statement carved into a stone wall, it probably doesn't mean the wall is intelligent, based on what we know about stone. It doesn't mean whoever carved it was intelligent, because a highly skilled carver could carve somebody else's words without being very smart. Likewise, computer output that seems intelligent can't be taken by itself as proof of anything.

  • I think the same also goes for hating corps for not virtue signaling, but saying that on social media is like pissing on The Flag™.

  • Those are the default meanings - you obviously didn't read Appendix H.
