  • What's your entirely unimportant and inconsequential hot take?

  • I think their opinion is that fries/salad is a lazy choice of sides to complete a meal. A traditional meal is usually a combination of protein, starch, and veg. In that regard, steak+fries+salad is a "meal", but it's definitely low-effort and designed to make people not hungry as cheaply as possible.

    Good restaurants will create thoughtful sides that truly add to the dish, so it doesn't feel like you're eating "steak and some other shit".

  • Donald Trump's UFC Freedom 250 Fight Lost $30 Million, TKO Says

    Jump

  • The way I read it was that UFC spent $30M more on the event than they received in direct revenue... I'd expect they'll try to milk replay/youtube/etc to try to recoup, or eat the cost like they ate trump's asshole.

  • The process of producing lumber is largely automated.

    The process of producing concrete is largely automated.

    The process of producing drywall, mud, paint, nails, tools, wires, switches, pipes, are all largely automated.

    The process to create the architectural designs and blueprints for the house are largely automated.

    The process to create the electricity, fuels and vehicles needed are all largely automated.

    To make a house, people used to draw plans by hand (if at all), chop the trees down with an axe and/or saw that was made by hand by a blacksmith, shape the timber with hand tools made by the blacksmith, fasten things together with hand-crafted joinery or nails hand-made by the blacksmith. All the materials were transported by hand or by horse and lifted onto the structure by hand or manually operated hoist. Every part of it, including the production of all the tools, was previously done by hand.

    The invention of the assembly line opened up the possibility to eventually automate virtually everything except the final assembly, and we have robots that can be made capable of doing that autonomously as well. You can buy pre-fab homes where all the major sections are built in a factory by robots and shipped out to the construction site and attached together.

    Construction is far more automated than what you make it out to be.

  • AI Companies Are Buying Tons of Old Books Because They're Free of AI Slop

    Jump

  • From what I've read previously, they're destroying all the books, regardless if they're historic and one-of-a-kind or a mass produced paperback.

  • More that they are destroying the books in the process of digitizing them, they basically cut the pages out of the book and feed them into a scanner with a document feeder attached.

  • For the epstein class it's only ever about money - they make up the racism/bigotry to get poor people to support their grift.

    Not to say they aren't racist/bigoted, but to them, it's just a tool to get the money.

  • My overall tax burden is only a little higher (3.5-4%) than it was in the US.

    Does that also take into consideration not having to pay insurance premiums for basic healthcare?

  • Quality and quantity of education are leading indicators of the overall trajectory of a region. Everything else follows. More educated people demand better services and more educated people are capable of providing those better services. Better educated people vote for candidates who are able to create better policies driven by data and research. All of this creates positive feedback loops as long as the quality and quantity of education is kept up. If that slips, all of the above will also eventually degrade.

  • Prod should always be highly "air gapped" with some sort of deployment process which tests not only the code to be deployed but also the deployment itself. I've been doing QA for a good while now, and everywhere I've worked has testers dedicated to testing the actual update process to make sure it will be safe when deployed.

  • Spent nearly 10 years working call center jobs, every single one of them had QA people listening to random calls and grading them. If you didn't stick to the script or try to sell the thing or whatever it was, you'd get a failing grade on the call. Enough of those and you're gone.

    You're also graded on how long each call takes based on a metric called "Average Handle Time" or AHT which was set by the client based on whatever fucking fantasy they had about how long each call should take.

    Fun fact, some contracts I worked on had an AHT requirement that was lower than the amount of time it would take to go through all of their required scripted sales pitches without even addressing the reason for the call. It was literally impossible to get full marks because you either had to skip most of their required scripts, not help the customer, or have the call run long.
