  • Avoid anything that comes in plastic packaging and distill your own water. You will still need to drink normal water but I can’t imagine any municipality is currently equipped to deal with microplastic so reducing your intake is probably a good idea.

    Short of moving somewhere very rural and growing all your own food, it is close to impossible.


  • I was working at an assembly plant for plane motors (the big kind) and one of them literally blew up in the test bed. There was chunks literally embedded in the safety glass, it was a huge mess.

    Turns out someone left an orange rubber mallet inside of it. Over the course of a year, they reassembled the shredded mallet and traced it back to the toolbox that used it. The guy lost it and instead of reporting it and disassembling his last job, he just stole one from an other toolbox.

    Not mine but my buddy used to build kayaks. One of the employees took a dump in one of the kayaks and it only got caught because of a random QC test. I always giggle thinking of the client who would have received it.





  • You can use speech to text to transcribe meetings then have an LLM generate summaries. You can make an automated tagging system with the transcription or summaries as well.

    I wouldn’t have it manage appointments, just in case of errors. I don’t know for cpd, not really sure what that entails. For advertising, image generation can be a real boon but it still requires someone with some advertising and photo editing knowledge to get good results.

    It really depends on the specific task, it can fail monumentally for certain things but can be a real time and cost saver for others. It’s important to review what it does as well and test it thoroughly.






  • Autism and narcissism can co-occur.

    Research has indicated that individuals with autism could develop narcissistic-like behavior as a way to handle social challenges.

    Directly from the article you just posted.

    Have you been officially diagnosed? It’s really easy to put autist next to your name and pretend, using it as an excuse to be a complete asshat.

    I have friends with autism and it doesn’t make any of them assholes. You are using it as an excuse as to blame anyone but yourself for your abrasive and draining personality.

    You’re poor because of the economy and no one like you because of your autism and blah blah blah. Grow the fuck up and find a way to deal with your problems without making it everyone else’s problem around you, take some responsibility.

    Your behavior is pathetic.

    Lmao, you can be autistic and other things including a narcissist. In any case, I doubt you’ve ever been diagnosed by anyone other than google.

    Ya the economy is rough, and it’s probably harder to keep a job when you’re addicted to being a dick. It’s always someone else’s fault, isn’t it?

    Put yourself in other peoples shoes for once in your life and realize that your behavior is heavy and just drags people down and ruins their day. You refuse to acknowledge your problem in any real way and actively enable yourself.

    Stop wallowing in your own filth and walk away from the computer when you start having an episode, it’s literally that simple.

    Most people are mature enough to realize they are being annoying and acting crazy when it’s pointed out, and remove themselves from the situation to cool down.

    Does your therapist tell you to stay in whatever situation that’s enraging you and wallow in it? I’m guessing by now she just mostly sighs as she scribbles “narcissist” in big bold letters on her pad.

    I’m not your mother, I don’t have to coddle you. No one cares and no one wants to deal with your anger.

    Go for a walk. If anything, it might help you lose weight (I’m assuming you’re fat)

    AGI is software with human like intelligence that can self-improve and the last two years is very measurable progress. We went from essentially nothing to multimodal models that can run on consumer hardware. OpenAIs new model, if they are to believed, is apparently much better at reasoning and can do long term research. I’ve also seen a few papers in the wild talking about self teaching methods and framework.

    To be clear, I don’t know which will come first. It’s hard to know if the next leap is just a step or if there’s a giant chasm laying infront. I do know that it’s a lot easier to prototype with AI then fusion and there’s a lot more people working on it, both behind closed doors and publically on the internet. Fusion doesn’t have this advantage.

    Your statement is basically a shot in the dark imo.
