You would not miss it. For the first few years you would think "wow this weather is great!" Then you would get used to it and be freezing cold if the weather was even slightly chilly.

Also, one thing you don't realize until you live somewhere with nice weather: they don't have insulation and they prioritize airflow. So even a windy day will make your house cold.

It's expensive.

That's true. If he really wanted to expand, he would just expand into AI filmmaking too. This sounds like a money problem, not a technology issue.

This dude is working at a bank. They don't pay well, but job security is decent. Banks rarely go out of business. He should go elsewhere to earn more. But yeah, that's literally nothing for his job. He could easily double it.

Too old to know what a telemarketer is?

True. Maybe they just need more error correction. Like spend more energy questioning whether what you say is true. Right now LLMs seems to just vomit out whatever they thought up, with no consideration of whether it makes sense.

They're like an annoying friend who just can't shut up.

The funny thing is, children are similar. They just learn whatever you put in front of them. We have whole systems for educating children for decades of their lives.

With AI we literally just plopped them in front of the Internet, with no guidelines on what to learn. AI researchers say "it's a black box! We don't know why it's doing this!" You fed it everything you could and gave it few rules on what to do. You are the reason why it's nuts.

Humans come hardwired to be a certain way, do certain things. Maybe they need to start AI off like that, some basic programs that guide learning. "Learn everything" isn't working.

Or an immigrant. Or a woman (especially if you're pregnant). Or if you lived near black people or immigrants. Or if you had long hair. Or maybe the local bank manager just didn't like you. These were all acceptable reasons to deny your loan application prior to credit scores.

They literally made decisions based on things you can't control. Banks are now legally prohibited from even asking these things. If you notice, people working at a bank will never ask "where are you from?"

Especially language. They're just mad because there are more native English speakers in America than in the UK.

The article in question is titled "Cellular functions of spermatogonial stem cells in relation to JAK/STAT signaling pathway," which was authored by three researchers in China, including the corresponding author Dingjun Hao of Xi’an Honghui Hospital. It was published online Tuesday in the journal Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology.

The issue of fake papers coming out of China has been known as an epidemic for at least a decade. "Publish or perish" is a worldwide problem but it's another level there.

AI just makes this funnier.

That's why it pays well. Garbage person jobs pay well too. Few people want to wake up early and smell like garbage all day.

Same. They definitely were on the bubble and about to be cancelled. They had a few good years where video made up for the declining shipping service. Now there's no reason to pay.

What are you paying for? Shipping is the same without prime, and the video and music products suck. Replaced it with looking elsewhere for cheaper products, which I was already doing.

Btw, if you want a free trial of Shipt your Visa CC may have one. Search for "Shipt Visa trial" or something.
