Nuclear physics does involve quantum mechanics, so that checks out. The scale might be a little off, but no more than a few dozen orders of magnitude

While I’m not a physician, I have watched enough zombie movies to know how this will turn out

To be clear, I criticized a hyperbolic statement, not a factual acknowledgement

Outside of the West Bank and Jesuselum, those responsible are long dead

It sounds as if we have a semantic disagreement over the definition on Zionism. My point was: most Zionist aren’t billionaires living in yachts and private islands, any more than most Trumpers are, and suggesting they are feeds into the racist trope of the wealthy Jewish cabal controlling the world

Ok, but to be clear, holding Jewish people responsible for the sins of the Israeli government, no matter how few or many Israelis protest the war, is antisemitism. And talking about zionists on yachts and islands kinda is too

You need to insert β€œchild-β€œ after the β€œa”

Yeah, I get that. It just didn’t seem obvious enough or funny enough or insightful enough to post a fake picture. There are far too many of those these days

Or was that the prompt for the AI?

I think the question is about when and where this was taken, at what event

Ooh! Ooh! I know this one! It’s because it’s scary.

So what happens if ICE subpoenas the data?

I shook Bill Gates’s hand once when I worked at Microsoft, maybe twenty years ago. Now I feel I have to wash it.

It’s all very nice talking about user control. Why didn’t you ask what that looks like when ICE demands access? Were you worried it would detract from your cute wrap up around cats?

Congress already has far too many multi-millionaires. We don’t need more

I’d quote the cost per year, but one thing I learned from the book is that the length of the Renaissance is not well defined

I heard someone use smartphone the other day, in the sense of, some other person was so ridiculously far behind the times they finally got one. To be fair, I think their old phone was a smartphone, it was just a decade or so old

I’ve been hearing the argument that progressive bastions like Seattle and the Bay Area have been largely spared because big tech has bent the knee

Sure, but none of them were hard kicks. If you look at the NFL stats for those distances and the extra points, a typical player could have made them all around 50% of the time
