Huh. I asked it to make me a level 5 Wizard for PF2e, and it spit out… python code to generate one myself???

The new Starter Kit is out and about now. I grabbed one a few weeks ago for my step-son. Are you able to find that in stock? It seemed pretty good from my quick scan.
Yeah. The Bidens are safe. The assailant is under arrest. Nobody’s dog got shot.
It’s obvious why this is a confusing outcome.
Me, noticing Riker: “I don’t get it. Why is Abraham Lincoln here?”
Me, finally noticing Picard: “KILL IT WITH FIRE!”
They 100% think of it as a lever that makes expenses disappear. They’re often just a little bit surprised when it results in labour disappearing along side the expenses, though.
Importantly, though, this kind of dehumanizing language is purposeful, and it’s extremely harmful. It makes it easier for management to treat people’s livelihoods and lives as disposable.
Keep in mind that “human resources” (sometimes called “human capital” at some especially icky places) is also one of these dehumanizing terms. Treating people as resources that are available to use or process is really gross, and that’s literally the name of the department.
And yet it still has a bunch of ads for PC+ littered throughout it. Despite being grandfathered in, I abandoned it earlier this year for Podcast Republic, which hasn’t spammed me or locked me out of any features I’ve tried to play with despite not having paid them anything.
Honestly, I’d take a woody window to replace the clear glass overlooking the scenic parking lot outside literally any of the apartments I’ve ever lived in.
Holy shit, someone that actually likes that aural abomination?
Are you the reason it won’t fucking die?
Hahahahahaahahahaahahahahahahaha

Just add degrees to any ol’ unit. It’s fine. Unit multiplication isn’t implied, I promise!
I just biked 25 degrees kilometre!
Self checkouts tend to have a hand scanner too
I’m going to guess that this is regional or vendor specific, because I’ve literally never seen a self-checkout with a hand scanner. And if I ever did, I would expect it to transform into a broken, dangling cable within a few months.
Meanwhile, stores all but stop manning existing checkouts, forcing everyone to line up to check out their own stuff.
In business, all data are vanity metrics. If they make you look good, you slap that shit on everything; if they make you look bad, you “don’t have it”.
It’s just that sometimes you can use negative data to make decisions that look good to those above you, and sometimes you know that you can’t.
Yeah, I’m wounded by the commission omission of Cape Breton. But I think it’s just that there’s nothing dubious about our islands.

So, the article this is pulling from is a 2003 academic paper on class, race, and gender representation in American sitcoms. It’s not an LLM produced bit of of insanity, nor is it someone who has never watched the show saying something unknowingly unintelligible.
It’s a joke. Some dry humour, possibly put in there to see if peer reviewers had any idea about the then current television sitcom landscape.
This is Elon Musk erasure.
I also think it’s stupid to hold people accountable for atrocities done centuries ago before electricity.
At the same time, many families got rich off of slave labour, and have passed that ill gained wealth down from generation to generation.
Just because you gave the car you stole away as a gift doesn’t mean it ain’t fucking stolen. It should be repossessed.
“Embarrassingly parallelizable” is just the term for a process that can be perfectly paralleled.
The current boom is an embarrassingly parallel task meeting an architecture designed to run that kind of task.
Plus organizations outside of the FAANGs having hit critical mass on data that’s actually useful for mass comparison multiple correlation analyses, and data as a service platforms making things seem sexier to management in those organizations.
I cannot stress this enough: LLMs are not, have never been, and quite likely never will be search engines. You may as well ask your a auto-complete questions.
