The courts struck down many Biden policies as well. People just give those a pass because "SCOTUS is rigged" or something...

Yes, sure, it is I who is blind...

It'll never stop amusing me how blind we are to politicians that are "on our side".

It's very fashionable to hate on the current administration, despite what the previous administration was doing. That's reality and I'll be punished to hell for saying so.

Every ultrasound device makes sound, sometimes a lot of sound, because it's vibrating all of the materials, liquids, and air around it.

In the book "Turn the Ship Around", these questions are only temporary, and are part of how the leader transforms the team from traditional Leader-Follower into Leader-Leader.

These questions condition people to think ahead, and eventually present the information unprompted.

This ultimately is part of Intent-Based Leadership, where "followers" present the "leader" with their intentions, information and reasoning - and the "leader" just agrees usually. This in essence transforms "followers" into leaders, since they are the ones deciding what happens, when and why.

Marquet goes so far as to even avoid giving orders, instead just approving or questioning the intentions of his team. It took him a long time to get to that point in reality, but it's a really interesting take on leading highly intelligent, skilled teams.

"Turn the Ship Around" is fantastic. It's a short audio book (about 6.5 hours), if that's more up your alley. Definitely worth a read/listen.

I don't think those two things are comparable, really.

With SO copy/paste, you still were undertaking the mental exercise (and reward) of thinking through hard problems, researching solutions, and assembling it yourself.

With AI, you literally outsource most or all of that. The way some people "vibe code", they barely are engaged with any of that process, if at all.

I think about it like I do video games: it's a lot of fun to play them, and while it can be interesting to watch someone else play, it's just not the same.

The only people using MSSQL Server are people deep, deep in the Microsoft ecosystem. Think government work, and those unlucky enough to work at a pure Microsoft shop where every problem looks like a Microsoft or Azure solution.

It's not a dominant database anywhere on the outside.

Yes, but IP67 is not nearly as water resistant as IP68, which all modern phones are for the most part.

I'm not knowledgeable enough to know if IP68 could be achieved in a phone without glue. There's no clamping mechanism for the backs, they're just press-fit with small clips.

Just skimmed the PR, I'm sure the author knows more than I - but why hard code a date at all? Why not do something like `today + 1 year`?

Which phones? I ask as someone that's had to replace multiple phones after a trip through the washing machine.

Modern phone water resistance is incredible. I've even seen people literally swim with their phones and not even question if it was a bad idea.

He also ate nothing but McDonald's - three meals a day, even if he was already "full". In one scene, he literally vomits, then continues eating the food.

Literally zero people do what Spurlock did in that film.

You have clearly never met fresh-out-of-basic or back-from-deployment sailors, then.

They build used car dealerships and strip clubs within walking distance of bases. Sailors blow thousands in an evening at the club, and then drive home in $75k vehicles purchased at predatory interest rates.

Despite significant, potentially life-changing enlistment and re-enlistment bonuses, housing stipends and more - many (or most) enlistees leave the service in debt or near penniless.

Yet, people still meme how unsupportive the US is to its people.

The reality is the US operates the world's largest social services apparatus, including the world's largest public healthcare system.

So we're moving goalposts? Where did I say people in need don't need any fruit?

People in need don't need single/one calorie tart cherries that are rarely eaten on their own. Consuming tart cherries typically involves processing that is more costly in terms of ingredients and time than simply using the pre-processed versions. Tart cherries are sometimes donated and are rarely destroyed.

Which argument will you come up with next?

You've bounced all over the place in this thread. Just let it rest...
