I say to her "Pica there is more to life than who you think you can eat and who you think might eat you."

But I don't think she's buying it.

@JoBlakely

My cat is terrified of redtails. She knows one lives around back on a nearby high-rise and when we go on the roof together she always has to stand at the door and scan around to see if it is there.

It's probably wise of her ... but I still find it funny how worried she is.

@GottaLaff

Hope it works. They did say it didn't they?

@ai6yr

When you beat the fire it learns to stop being so hot and disobedient.

@janamarie

are you gonna use it on some bugs?

@tofugolem @risottobias @TerryHancock @micahcraig

I always thought that fubar was the "domain name" and fubar.com was the "address"

If you had things.fubar.com then things was the "sub-domain" or "folder"

@tofugolem @micahcraig

What was it before that?

@cford @alec

I know. How could such a thing happen? LOL

@th

Compute is People.

It kind of reminds me of how in math we call N0 "n sub naught"

Why not "n sub zero" ? Nobody knows. It's not like it isn't a zero in the subscript but that is how I learned to call it as a baby grad student. So that is how it is.

@alec @cford

The contexts I've encountered it have not used it with enough precision to help me to understand this distinction. I think it's being abused by posers.

@dirtwizard666

OK I wouldn't take it that far. But it's a red flag if the person isn't a serious tech expert... I do think some use it as jargon... and others to make it seem like they know jargon.

@JeffreySmith @bicmay @fullyabstract

Do we need to start naming kids "Gulf of Mexico" is it that bad yet?

Darren Gulf of Mexico Williams.

That only works if journalists fail to stick up for each other. If when one journo was kicked out for a question 20 more kept asking the same one it becomes unworkable to ban them all. Will you give a conference to an empty room? By, acceding that "no that question went to far" when you know it didn't you become part of the propaganda arm of the state. And you aren't even being paid as much as those who choose that as their profession.

Why are people using the word "compute" in a new way, I think as a short hand for "sever resources" all over the place.

eg. "we will invest in more compute" and "there isn't enough compute for that" etc.

Where did this start? Do we like it?

@HumanServitor

If I lived in a congressional district with a republican representative now seems like a good time to send a letter asking when the information would come out.

Everyone just wants to see what is in the files and know what happened in that strange meeting.

Absent facts I'm left to imagine all kinds of things.

If there isn't anything there it should not be a problem to come clean.

@fullyabstract

The press is too scared to hound the president with questions about this. But come on. He should be asked "why is it taking so long to release this information? Can't you use AI to cook up something fake faster than this?"

@fullyabstract

I think they have that, but rightly realize that maybe their base isn't blinded by loyalty enough to swallow that as real given that Maxwell isn't, and cannot even attempt to argue that she is innocent.

(Her bid for a retrial is based on a technicality not some assertion that she is innocent, there is too much evidence that contradicts that.)

So, her lying for a pardon might hurt more than it helps.
