China thinks like Russia - first one to AGI wins everything

How can he ?

Real gamers started before there were graphics at all. Zork I maybe the greatest game in the history of gaming for its ability to be entirely text based,

This curve is not accurate

In theory. We are already seeing leaps in LLMs that suggest there’s a lot we don’t understand

AI is being trained through internet searchh data and chat gpt trials. People are horrible in the internet, Zero chance we wind up with a benevolent AI

It never really occurred to me for some reason that people planning a funeral might be pissy toward the funeral director

You’ve covered it, Maine is not a place that is normally teeming with events.

My intent was not to attack you but rather just to comment an industry that consists entirely of smoke and mirrors. It’s obviously an industry we need in some form

All burials are green in the end. That concrete vault you paid extra for will be filled with water in a year and that mahogany casket will be floating in it. There is so much bullshit involved in the funeral industry. In fact it’s all bullshit really.

Spectrum has been out of hand the whole time. What you describe is, legit, their business model.

Some cleaner and a rag would have gone a long way

Life changes and evolves. AI will think of ways to keep you working.

And by “increase diversity”, they mean “save money” by not having to hire models and agents.

Acadia National Park is beautiful and worth visiting.

Compared to all of the other states, using the same formulae, Maine teachers have it easier. Why is that a bad thing to point out?

I mean the quality of the math education I received is directly related to the quality of my teacher. So theres that lol.

An average ratio of 1:11, using the same formula for comparison with all 50 states, is real and useful data. I’m sorry that it doesn’t fit with your world view.

Education is funded. Teachers buy extra stuff because they have the money available to them.

Numbers don’t lie. I was taught to do math

Once all the old alumni have died off, it’ll be easier. There’s a lot of guys out there that lived their glory days/peaked at skank.

Boy, this doesn’t really fit with the mythology that we hear all the time does it? The myth centers around the notion that teachers are somehow underpaid, overworked, and forced to spend their own money.

The reality is that teaching is a part-time job with every summer and weekend off, according to data you will only have 11 kids in your class on average so there’s not that much grading to do, and there’s a tax deduction that allows teachers to get extra money back for anything they put in Out of their own pockets beyond what the school has budgeted for.

Enough of the whining, this is a profession to embrace for its benefits.

I think you might be on to something.

It’s only going to hit the parts of Maine where there are no people…..

Ask or listen to your partner not us.

This is why LL Bean had to become more strict in its policies - shoppers develop unrealistic expectations. 3 years of service from a cheap $70 air fryer, which is just plastic, a fan, a printed circuit board, a heating element and a plug is pretty good. IMHO.
