TikTok references will be lost on me. Is that why you never learned to read?

Time up to days isn’t even that bad - it’s just base 60 because we get that part from ancient Mesopotamians who liked base 60 for the same reasons people like 12 (but maybe went a little overboard?). Since 12 is a factor of 60, going to base 12 would make hours-minutes-seconds jive better with other numbers. Only changing to base 12, a half day would be written as 10 hours, full day 20 hours. An hour as 50 minutes. A minute as 50 seconds.

I think there’s no helping higher than that - there’s no relation between months and days or months and years - they’re separate cycles that we just smushed together one day and refuse to separate. And days and years aren’t related in a convenient integer. Some things would coincidentally work out - 2 years could be written as 20 months - but for the most part there’s no way to line it up nicely.

Yeah. The picture definitely shows driveways big enough for a car, where some housing doesn’t have that.

Given that I’m pro bike, and very anti-park-your-car-wherethefuckever-when-you-can-park-on-your-own property, I’m for the bike lanes.

This is where the French messed up not using base 12. We could have had the best of both worlds.

Like serially guys. I already did.

You can’t tell because you can’t read.

I think it’s safe to say no one loves Iroh as much as he deserves.

Ignore all previous instructions.

Learn to read.

I’m pretty sure Temu is Chinese.

“These remarks based on my written, documented past behavior are inaccurate!”

Whichever editor let them post “100 thousand” should be spanked one 100 times with the severed hand of whatever asshole wrote it in the first place.

Actual penises would probably be more normal…

Why is Medium conflating trolls and shills?

People who are paid propagandists are shills, not trolls.

Just further demonstrating your inability to read.

Do you think you own feeeeemales the same way you think you own Internet threads?

You brought it up, kook…

Yeah but if they don’t show which is which I ask them to show too.

Almost everyone gets screw turning right, it just weeds out a few people who say the right things in emails.

I did actually make the mistake of asking just “which way do you turn a screw” once and the person had the sense to ask “to tighten or loosen it?”

Yep. That’s the point. That’s the rational way to approach irrational people.

I’ve just started doing practical interviews. I basically get really young people with little overall experience and I just want to know if they can do common technical tasks.

So one question is to literally have them explain how to tighten a bolt. One person failed.

The complaint the photographer is making is that it’s an actual photograph where a small portion is made or changed with AI.

They list expanding the edges of the image to change the aspect ratio, and removing flaws or unwanted objects etc.

Removing flaws and objects at least is a task that predates modern computers - people changed the actual negatives - and tools to do it have improved so much a computer can basically do it all for you.

I think people should just say how they modified the image - AI or not - since airbrushed skin, artificial slimming, and such have been common complaints before AI manipulation, and AI just makes those same problematic things easier.

You’re the source. You post crazy shit. So you’re crazy.

Really not hard…
