ChatGPT makes you a 10x developer, so using it for one year is like ten years of experience ^/s

Fish in a Birdcage just released Rule #34 (it is indeed about sex) and Rule #35, Rule #4 (also titled Fish in a Birdcage) is his most famous and Rule #13 is also very good.

Mike Dunford, Cola's lawyer, is fantastic. He has a Twitch channel (questauthority) if you want to hear more from him.

Indie studios do in fact exist. I haven't bought a game from a major publisher since... uhh... well, I guess I bought Portal for $1 last year, does Valve still count as a major publisher?

As a former 4-Her myself, the 4-H extension office in our region is run by a state university, but the clubs themselves are community-organized. Also, many clubs in our area were general, so you could do any topic covered by the extension office and be a part of the club.

Bricklink is a site for individuals/small business to buy and sell primarily individual Lego pieces, so it's important for shipping calculations to have reasonably accurate weights of all the pieces. Their weights are therefore contributed by those sellers. Although now that LEGO Group owns Bricklink, you'd think they could just slide them the numbers.

The part pictured here seems to be 3069px7 with the base color incorrectly set to white. In any case, it's 3069, the standard 1x2 tile. Thanks to the folks at LDraw who have modeled every Lego brick in detail (because of course people have done that), we get a volume of 303.8mm³, with a bounding box size of 409.6mm³, for a density of about 74%. But, Bricklink can just directly tell us the mass of a 1x2 tile is 0.26g, so the total mass is 10.5 metric tons.

Modern drugs cost tens of millions of dollars to develop at a minimum, and can easily reach into the billions.

Let me rephrase that: "Coinbase and Bloom Tech illustrate the dangers of ~~starting a startup~~ lying in a regulated industry."

Coinbase hasn't exactly lied, to my knowledge, grouping them with his stupid startup is pretty disingenuous, but he started it.

I'm familiar enough with country codes that I do know what ZA means, but in the context I didn't realize that it was referring to a country, I thought it was just an abbreviation I wasn't familiar with. In retrospect that probably should have stood out to me more.

I didn't intend to make any comment on morality. US law seems relevant given that it's near-impossible to find one of these nonsense AI startups that isn't either in the US or targeting US customers. Indeed, this one looks to be based in Los Angeles.

That strikes me as probably illegal, at least in the US (although I can't find a better source, if someone can find where the EEOC says that it'd be appreciated.)
