Every accusation is an admission.

SYAC: In the article, Altman doesn’t explain anything regarding what led to the board doing what they did, and asserts that he will wait for the new board to conduct an investigation.

The fibers are too short, but you could probably make a neat paper out of it.

There are some really good flint and steel survival rods available now. Not the flimsy Scouting ones of yesteryear, but ones with anodized aluminum housings, hardened metal strikers and large diameter flint rods.

Started our winter stove with it the other day and am really happy with it.

The one I have, from a survival perspective, is a little risky, because when configuring them for use they must be taken down into multiple parts, but damn if it doesn’t make huge sparks.

If you’re in the Apple ecosystem, you can toss your vault into iCloud Drive. If you’re technically proficient (and brave) you can write a cron to sync into whichever service you want via a local machine.

In addition to iCloud, I have a one-way sync (rsync) which functions as a poor man’s backup to get all my files into Dropbox; lots of stern warnings from Obsidian not to use Dropbox.

May I offer that it really depends on your note-taking style? I’ve been using it since July having come from linear note-taking on Cornell NTS. It’s way faster and much more interlocked once you get past the slight learning curve.

Can’t we though? All language is arbitrary at first. A person (or community) often names things, sometimes from pure scratch. The words “Kodak” and “Xerox” come to mind.

Aye, I did thank you for the correction.

According to Space.com in July 2023, there were 4,487 active Starlink satellites. 26 represents just over 0.5% of the total constellation. Considering it seems like a swarm-type system, 0.5% strikes me as simply the cost of doing business.

Edit: decimals.

Because companies rely on asymmetric information to their advantage. It’s why they allow a culture of not discussing pay and wages, because if you knew that your peer is getting paid more than you with less experience and time in the company, you would either demand more pay or benefits, or you will go someplace else. All companies are complicit in this.

The blurb here makes me think the main article is an “advertorial”.

The point of endless impeachments is not that they actually have merit, but that they are intentionally frivolous in order to undermine the tool and make it appear as though it’s only used in political persecution and remove its value and efficacy.

I prompted ChatGPT to write and adjust a linear Python script for a repetitive task I needed to automate. It took 30 minutes versus the 6-12 hours I would have consumed if I had coded it myself.

It’s a huge force multiplier when used properly.

Compensation and rationalization. C’mon. Your position is untenable at its foundation.

You’ve got the projection and cognitive dissonance turned up to eleven.

“Bigot” is the word you’re looking for.

Strong concur. Religion is fine, but there is no place for extremism.

Close, XKCD:456.

Have you at least tried to install Gentoo? Everyone has to think they can, and fail, at least once in their lives.

When this happens to me, I pick out the most obvious thing in the general direction my partner has pointed and say something about it, like “wow, that is a lot of trees!”

Makes my partner immediately explain what they saw, and I remind them that they’ve got to be specific. It’s gotten better.

Big Toothpaste gonna fight this. Tooth and nail.
