I recorded a bunch of MST3K back then. My intro of other people to the show was Godzilla vs Megalon. Love that Jet Jaguar.

As others mentioned, one is a noun, the other a verb. I think of it in alphabetical order. A comes before E, and action comes before result.

Yeah. I'm not sure I could make up something so ridiculous that no one would believe it.

I had this notion of starting a Twitter account to "train" the ai by posting nonsense. The kind of nonsense that wouldn't sway a human tho. I just don't know how much effect one account like that would have.

I'm not much of a zombie person either. But I saw Hot Fuzz first, and liked it so much I had to check this out.

At least your example has more razzmatazz. That Gatsby summary is just "What if books were really boring?"

I still like the exchange: Sisko: "You didn't raise me to run away from my problems." Sisko's father: "I raised you to be a chef, for all the good it did me."

Shatter #14. Claimed to be the first comic drawn on a computer. It had some so-so issues earlier, but ended strong.

It's like we need something written down that all persons born or naturalized in the U.S. are entitled to equal protection of the law. Nahhh. The GOP would hate that.

I'm no lawyer, but would there also be a liability issue with a lawyer using ai? Say a lawyer writes a contract with the help of ai. The client signs it, but then the lawyer realizes it contains language he or she wasn't expecting, detrimental to the client. How would this be resolved?

It definitely goes the other way as well. I once rented a house made in the 50s. A couple months later, an instructor told me homes in the 50s didn't have much insulation since heating oil was cheap. It was definitely expensive to heat in winter.

To your point, a big part of this is design. Modern homes are designed to use ac when it's hot. We could design homes that are less demanding of that system, and that's an issue for the homebuilders.

Good point. I've been told the more reliable way to increase salary is to move to another company after you gain experience.
