I don’t think they meant “you” you. They meant “you” in the general sense. They’re saying that people either love it or hate it, with not very many centrists.
I’m not sure that’s true, though. I think, like you, most people are either centrist, or have no opinion at all. The vocal people go all one way or the other, though… Except you for some reason. :D
FTA: YouTube’s global head of health, Dr Garth Graham, said: “As a teen is developing thoughts about who they are and their own standards for themselves, repeated consumption of content featuring idealised standards that starts to shape an unrealistic internal standard could lead some to form negative beliefs about themselves.”
And while I’m sure this is true, this is a minority of people, and they should seek help for their problem. There are far more who benefit from hearing about the benefits of a healthy lifestyle and how to achieve it.
They should already be hearing that stuff from their parents and teachers, but I have my doubts. And they’re much more likely to listen to influencers than authority figures at certain ages.
But the whole thing is even more pointless. They’re mostly influenced by seeing these beautiful people constantly on TV, movies, and Youtube, and thinking that they don’t measure up to them. Simply stopping some health care videos is going to do nothing for the problem and only prevent videos with the information they need.
Ah, I see. Well, I’m a little surprised it’s backordered that far then.
For fun, I checked Fi… Oct 23-30 for me.
It’s been possible to order pixel 9s for a couple weeks, hasn’t it? When I looked at one after the announcement, it was going to be here on release day. When I looked a few days later, it was going to be a couple more weeks.
I’m not surprised that they’re backordered for a while at this point.
I’m on the free trial of DL. It’s still this ugly icon.
I think that’s the point? They’re saying that those coders will turn into prompt engineers. They didn’t say they wouldn’t have a job, just that they wouldn’t be “coding”.
Which I don’t believe for a minute. I could see it eventually, but it’s not “2 years” away by any stretch of the imagination.
IIRC, they even have a rewards thing right now where you can get some free stuff for playing their games specifically on mobile, trying to draw more attention to their new store.
This already happens with those comedy talk show hosts. They create rage-bait stories and spin them for good entertainment, and people think it’s an accurate look at the situation. I used to kind of enjoy them until one of them hit on a subject I had just researched and knew immediately how they were spinning it. I can’t stand them now.
So while this is a concern, it’s one that’s already being done on a much larger scale with people who feel a lot more trustworthy. I’m not really worried about some kids that are also doing it.
Wow. The “designed to fail” backdrop on the video says a lot about this. They’re aiming for clicks, rather than rigorous testing.
I’m not at all surprised that TVs aren’t designed to be used 24/7 by residential users. And I’m not at all surprised that running them for 10,000 hours straight causes a lot of problems for them.
And I wouldn’t be at all surprised to find out that overworking them in the short term like that isn’t the same as using them regularly and normally for 6 years. Some of those things might still happen, but some of it is death from overheating.
I think they were talking about the built-in ad blocker that certain other (not firefox or chrome) browsers have, instead of UBlock.
Not a huge surprise, but ironic considering how hard he pushed the bot angle when he was trying to wriggle out of purchasing it.
I have never worked there (or any other major tech company) but if I had a job there, I wouldn’t give it up until I’d found another job. Perhaps the people there aren’t going crazy at the job hunt and still just haven’t found another job they want.
It’s really easy to think “all the layoffs are over and I made it” and “job hunting is painful, I don’t want to do it today” and just coast for a long time.
I’m sure every awful thing he does spurs another effort for job hunting, but unless the job actually makes them work harder or fires them, it probably doesn’t change much for them.
Also, they get paid a lot more than I do, and sometimes it’s worth the pain to keep raking in that cash.
Close. They want a cut from all users that use the Patreon IOS app. Since they can’t quite stretch that far, they’re insisting that Apple IAP functionality be built into the app and it be offered to the users. And as before, they can’t tell the users that it’s cheaper, or even available, elsewhere.
I think this happened to me as well. I had something pop my FEP film, and I replaced it, and tried a couple prints, but really didn’t like the whole resin experience, so I sold my printer.
When the buyer got it home, he told me the screen was cracked. We weren’t sure whether it happened in transit or not, and I’d given him a pretty great price on the thing with a washing machine and a ton of resin, so he decided he didn’t want any money back.
After learning more about resin printers since then, I now think it was my fault and I feel bad about it. Either way, I’ve definitely learned to check the major components before buying or selling something.
It sounds ridiculous, but non-free forums have existed for a long time. expertsexchange.com ran pretty successfully for a long time.
I don’t think Reddit knows how to make that work, and I think it’ll backfire fantastically for their user base, but it’s not impossible.
People have been trying to make Blender have some basic CAD functionality, but it’s just not there yet.
I admit I haven’t tried https://www.cadsketcher.com/ with it yet, though.
I say to one of their neighbors, “their pies tasted better when they were using real sugar, but they’re scared the kids’ mommies will be mad because their kids are up all night so they just took the sugar out. Didn’t even replace it with anything. The Johnson’s still use real sugar, they don’t care.”
Actually, I would say that unless it impacts you negatively, you shouldn’t criticize what others are giving freely. If they ask for criticism, that’s fine. But you shouldn’t volunteer it.
That “free pie stand” didn’t do you wrong. You dumped a heap of negativity on them for something they did out of the goodness of their heart, spending their time, energy and hand-earned money on. And you were negative about it, staining their memory of that event for your own selfish desires.
If they had asked you, “why don’t you want this pie?” you could have answered, nicely. But they didn’t ask you.
Instead, you should have just left and gone to the Johnston’s pie stand instead.
I 100% agree with your point about security and private information, but you are way over qualified for this “job”. ;)
It’s kind of weird to ask someone to have all that mod experience and then expect them to just post their private information publicly, though. Surely if they have enough experience they’ll already know what a bad idea it is to publicly post people’s information, and it’ll be hard to get them to apply.
It reminds me of a past job recognizing that I have a lot of cashier experience, but then not being able to understand why I refuse to share a till with anyone else. Duh, because I’ve been through that pain before and any smart office will want to avoid it, too.
IMO, you didn’t get unlucky with the K1M or lucky with the P1S. That’s the normal state of printers. Most printers are hard to dial in well, and the Bambu printers work like a dream out of the box. Luck is involved for anyone that didn’t start in those states.
There’s a few things going on. At first blush, I agree with you. The vast majority of that stuff doesn’t need to be captured.
But if you don’t capture everything, how do you know you got the stuff that will be important or wanted in the future?
Also, historians are going to find that data to be an absolute gold mine. Unfortunately, a lot of it is in the form of video now and takes a ton of storage space.
I think, in the end, most people are not willing to pay the price to archive everything. But some are, and they’re doing it.
