I stopped using a while back because the content wasn't really engaging anymore, but the stripping of the features (eg download lessons) really put a bad taste in my mouth. Still looking for a solid alternative, and even though Rosetta Stone is free through our library, it's frankly not hitting the same way as Duolingo did

The verbiage and / or long winded nature is usually one of the first tell-tale signs it's ChatGPT or something akin to it. The only thing more obvious is the random bullet points and bolding of sentences against the grain of the paragraph.

Can you actually rub two brain cells together or are you functionally retarded?

I'll put this impolitely: nearly all jobs require or heavily favor candidates with a college degree so it's unfortunately a non starter to bring that up and you're linking to an AI driving website.

shut the fuck up

It's amazingly progressive if you don't understand how he plans on funding it or the ramifications of its projected replacement tax policy

That's a management issue, not a productivity issue. That SWE's manager needs to head that off and make sure the tasks he's working on are significant, not rabbit hole esque.

What? Moana 2 and Inside out 2 combined for 3 billion dollars last year, and both of those have young girls as the target demographic. Now they are both sequels to existing IP, which is a problem mentioned throughout this thread but those types of kid movies can and absolutely are successful done well.

And people are still playing Tetris, so longevity and popularity really have to count for something. Personally I would most likely go with something like Super Mario because it really popularized video games across markets and is possibly the most recognizable video game character anywhere.

Breaking Bad isn't slow to start. I don't know what people want with a show about selling meth to stave off medical debt for your family, but it's got pretty much everything in spades. They literally start cooking in episode 1, kill people in episode 2 (1/2?), get introduced to his BIL DEA agent (hello foreshadowing), and he tells his wife by episode 3.

Better caul saul definitely has a slower start, which is to be expected when you learn it's the origin story of a fucking shadeball defense lawyer who started out in the mailroom. However that also falls by the wayside when you realize he gets kidnapped by Tuco in the first episode.

Is this a new version of Bennett Haselton, where they aren't an expert, don't know what the fuck they're talking about, but paid ./ to let them post some drivel?

They do not appear to be an expert in pop culture, but they do have expertise in data science. So I guess that's a plus.

The box is not alive. This guy seems really weirdly attached to the phone booth. That withstanding, it seems there is both historical usage / precedent and ample good reason to retain it under the emergency guidelines listed in the story. So I imagine that BT will absolutely just blow it away and ignore any concerns.

No US company has ever done Neilson ratings. You can take that to the bank

Neilson locomotives missed out by virtue of being a train company that went defunct in the 1960s.

OTOH you could make an argument that Nelson Dairy is somehow missing out on the analyzing TV consumption data, but that should really be left to their parent company as they're more a brand now than a standalone company worried about marketing.

Nelson did no such thing. All he wanted to do was nuke the whales.

Loses his job and life in process of doing idiot things. News at 11
