Worst hypothesis they just need to mess around a bit. For example I don’t think that queerasfu.ck
would be registered.

They could get a .ck domain instead and move to queer.as.fu.ck, no?
Sorry for the question, but where are you from? I learned this with my mother, so I don’t know if it’s something common here (Brazil) or something that she picked from her Polish or Italian relatives.
That’s surprisingly accurate, as people here are highlighting (it makes geometrical sense when dealing with complex numbers).
My nephew once asked me this question. The way that I explained it was like this:
It’s a different analogy but it makes intuitive sense, even for kids. And it works nice as mnemonic too.
Want some cuteness overload? Even big felines love cardboard boxes!
I’ve seen even people in their 40s using them. I don’t think that it’s a big deal, or that it’s too late for that.
Calcium chloride exists, it’s CaCl₂. You need two chloride anions for each calcium cation. [see note*]
It’s safe to eat as long as food grade. In fact it’s used in cheesemaking. It’s salty and bitter. It’s also used to dehydrate stuff in laboratory, since it absorbs water like there’s no tomorrow.
It doesn’t behave like metallic calcium at all. Just like sodium chloride (aka table salt) doesn’t behave like metallic sodium (warning: loud noise).
*Note: technically CaCl (one chlorine) exists, as a diatomic molecule. Rarely found in stars, you won’t find it in Earth.
Another important detail is that Digg v4 pissed off most of the userbase, so the impact was pretty much immediate. Reddit APIcalypse pissed off only power users instead; the impact will only come off later (sadly likely past IPO).
Don’t feel discouraged by the Karen above, that should’ve stayed in Reddit alongside their peers. Thoughtful contribution is often verbose, and there’s nothing wrong with it.
Neither, but if I must choose it’s probably slightly more like muscle than like cartilage. If prepared properly it’s really soft and a bit chewy, distantly reminding me meat from stews.
(That reminds me a local pub that prepares some fucking amazing breaded and deep-fried tripe. Definitively not doing it at home - it spills and bubbles the oil like crazy.)
A compiler does it “good enough”, but AI = god in a bottle, thus it’ll do it “perfectly”. And for perfection you need to edit the raw metal using butterflies and cosmic rays, it’ll be the only real programmer to ever appear. Pressures like time and focus will stop existing. Why? Because AI = god, QED.
…or at least that’s the sort of crap that those Silicon Valley muppets believe in. The content itself doesn’t make sense, but why that pile of nonsense is uttered does - a fringe religious-like belief increasingly common among them.
It’s the Sex update! They actually released it! The mad devs!
That other poster is likely trying to deliver a point, that Musk probably never read a book, by clipping the sentence of the other poster.
Websearch “transhumanism silicon valley”, and it starts making sense: Musk has faith that artificial general intelligence is coming, Soon®, and that it’ll replace grunt labour like programming.
It isn’t “Hangul” that is saving the language, but the fact that it’s getting an orthography. That orthography could be theoretically in any writing system - not just Latin or Arabic (both already exist for Cia-Cia, contrariwise to what the video claims), but even a native one or Cyrillic or even, dunno, the Cherokee syllabary.
Abidin looks informed on the matter; the same cannot be said about whoever produced this video. I’ll highlight a few issues.
[0:33] - pretty much all languages are “syllable-based”. They organise sounds into syllables. The video is likely trying to convey that it’s a CV (consonant, vowel, repeat) language, unlike, say, Russian or English (that cram quite a lot of consonants in a single syllable).
[0:36] The video is trying to use “transliterated” as a posh synonym for “spelled”; both are not the same thing. Transliteration is to convert text from a script from another; for example, “Quis credis esse, Bellum?” (Latin, using the Latin script) → “Кўис кредис ессе, Беллум?” (Latin, using the Cyrillic script instead) is transliteration.
And you can spell pretty much any language in any writing system. The association between grapheme and sounds (or phonemes) is arbitrary.
You might say “but the Latin alphabet doesn’t have a letter for /ɓ/!” - well, it doesn’t have a letter for /ʃ/ either. Italian handled it by spelling it ⟨sci⟩, English as ⟨sh⟩, Polish as ⟨sz⟩, Portuguese kind of repurposed ⟨x⟩. And the current Latin spelling for Cia-Cia - that you can check here - handled /ɓ/ just fine, using a similar approach as the Hangul one.
Musk being an assumer (note how he’s vomiting certainty on future events) doesn’t surprise me a tiny bit.
Some of the assets look clearly similar to the ones in Stardew Valley, while some are completely different. It’s… interesting to see.
I love the idea of backyard chickens. My parents got some in my childhood; and it allows you to get farming mechanics in a non-farm game.
Persuasion itself goes from neutral to negative, depending on your moral standards. (They’re partially individual, partially cultural.) Because at the end of the day it boils down to “I want you to believe in this, because I benefit from your belief.”
And you definitively see some backslash against this aspect of advertisement; same deal with personal communication, a person being excessively rhetoric for their own benefit is immediately labelled distrustful.
Then over that propaganda adds further layers of nastiness, like:
If I were to discipline my cats by picking them up, one of them would be exactly like in this pic. The other would be tearing my arms apart with the claws of her back legs.
Damn, that’s sad. Thank you for the info.
