And look at how many people saw the message. Putting more people on the bridge probably would have less of an effect than setting the extra people up on a different bridge.

I don’t think there’s an explanation that doesn’t make this copilot’s fault. Honestly JavaScript shouldn’t allow math between numbers and strings in the first place. “1” + 1 is not a number, and there’s already a type for that: NaN

Regardless, the sum should be 5 if the first cell is text, so it’s incorrect either way.

“1”+(2+3) is “15” in JavaScript.

I feel like the best modular AI right now is from Gemini. It can take a scan of a document and turn it into a CSV, which I was surprised by.

I figure it must have multiple steps, OCR, text interpretation, recognizing a table, then piping the text to some sort of CSV tool.

Honestly this is the best advice. It doesn’t have the highest chance of success, but it’s the only path that could really result in healing and reconnection. Some people do dumb things when confronted with mortality or serious illness, especially if they’re young and inexperienced. If she could be honest and sincere it would demonstrate awareness and potentially growth.

I’m not sure I get it, but I like the picture.

What tragic news. I wish her the best. I wish our country didn’t make people beg for healthcare.

Well metropolis isn’t exactly NYC, and he doesn’t stop every incident. Mostly he is shown focusing on the major disasters, mundane incidents in close proximity, and on protecting a short list of people he looks out for.

Also he moves insanely fast, like he can canonically travel faster than light. So being able to stop even a hundred car accidents could be accomplished in a series of short bursts throughout his day.

I think it has more to do with my sense of humor than my opinions. Some people can’t laugh at things they find objectionable. Some people struggle to find humor in certain situations.

Funny is not an intrinsic property of a bit, it’s subjective. There are people who hardly laugh at anything. Funny is in the laugh of the beholder.

That is emphatically not what I said.

I was just sharing my experience since it informed the way I interpreted the joke. I think it makes sense for her to talk about using a vibrator with partners since that’s probably something she has experienced.

Casting this joke as ‘male feelings being ridiculed’ is so strange. She’s talking about her own feelings, making light of the expectations her partners have set.

It’s not bigoted or mean spirited. The joke is fine.

No, but it is kinda funny. Maybe it’s not to your taste, humor is pretty subjective.

D&D

I just watched it last year, really solid show, I wish I’d seen it years ago.

If the guy has trouble reaching orgasm, sure. But in most straight relationships I’m familiar with it tends to go the other way, where the female partner needs more help to finish.

An e-bike wouldn’t do much for Jonas Vingegaard, but it can be a game changer for someone who struggles with gentle hills.

It’s funny because some guys get mad about a woman using a vibrator, but would be thrilled to give LeBron an assist.

They have no problem being cooperative in some settings, but in the bedroom feel like it’s a solo performance.

It’s especially funny because sex, of all things, is basically defined by the cooperative nature; you aren’t there to win points, you’re just trying to have a good time.

So in summary, it’s funny because it reverses expectations; the imaginary partner like cooperating in a competitive scenario, but gets competitive in a cooperative one.

If you have a supercharger in your engine, are you mad that it produces more horsepower than you do, or are you just happy to go fast?

Then why does the rich bald guy have so many? He doesn’t do shit.

I think the cookie represents entitlements or government services granted to citizens.

The wealthy person has oodles of subsidies and tax breaks, but is trying to scare the working person by talking about the immigrant seeking equality.

That is literally the messaging from corporate media sources. The comic doesn’t really get into whether the working person believes it or not, to me it’s more about the messaging used by the wealthy.

I don’t actually think global markets or immigration are inherently bad things. It’s vastly superior to nationalism and rigid borders. The problems are entirely caused capital and the exploitation of workers, hence the plate overflowing with cookies. The wealthy are the problem, not immigrants.

Last time I visited Canada I ate poutine twice in one day and you better believe I faced some enshittification. Great public toilets though; in the states it feels like every city has become a toilet desert, you need to buy a meal at a restaurant just to use a bathroom.
