In my town store hours in Google maps or Apple Maps are exactly as reliable as this AI.

Sounds like maybe we should be more interested to see what Bill Owens does next.

Arsenic is found naturally in some foods, including fish and shellfish, and in waters and soils.

Inorganic arsenic is found in industrial materials and gets into water—including water used to submerge rice paddies.

Rice is easily inundated with weeds and other crops, but it has one advantage: It grows well in water. So farmers germinate the seeds, and when the seedlings are ready, plant them in wet soil. They then flood their fields, which suppresses weeds, but allows the rice to flourish. Rice readily absorbs the water and everything in it—including arsenic, either naturally occurring or not. Most of the world’s rice is grown this way.

“What happens in rice, because of complex biogeochemical processes in the soil, when temperatures and CO2 go up, inorganic arsenic also does,” Ziska said. “And it’s this inorganic arsenic that poses the greatest health risk.”

If I’m understanding correctly, the risk is from flooding the fields with contaminated water

A farm that relies on flooding the field with rain from a rainy season should be unaffected? Or minorly affected, right?

This is what goes through my head every time I see it 😂

I’ve decided it’s a feature; not a bug…

Your HR’s CBT must be waaaay more complicated than ours if you need AI to help answer the questions 😂

“Your line manager tells you to ‘Grab them by the pussy; when you’re a manager they just let you do it’. Has this crossed the line into sexual harassment?”

⚪️ No. this is acceptable behavior
🔘 Yes. You should report this to HR
⚪️ You’re required to follow your line managers orders or risk dismissal for insubordination
⚪️ Sometimes it’s good to relax and joke around in the office.

Yes.

My wife is Thai. I knew Thai New Year was here but it still caught me off guard when she wished me a Happy New Year this morning.

Beat me by 52 seconds.

I think you know what needs to happen lemmings…

 

 

It was hitting the jamb on the bottom. The hinges seemed tight, so I just hit it with 40 grit sandpaper since it’s solid wood. Hit it with some sealant and it looks good as new.

I had to retighten the handle too. When I went to do the final test I was a little worried it the handle might not work correctly so I made sure I had my phone, my leatherman, and a bottle of water “just in case”.

I was surprised and very happy how well it came out.

 

I work from home. It has many advantages, but one big disadvantage is you might not notice it’s a holiday and work anyway.

Dare I ask my boss for Tuesday off since I accidentally worked the holiday anyway?
