LOL @89th! Yeah I get it. I have been developing software my entire adult life and doing this is fun. I get very laser focused when developing things. Having a "team of programmers" inside of Android Studio's AI that I can just command to do this! Do that! Fix that! is very empowering. I do review and modify the code but the latest version is very good at just getting it right.

I was tracking a completely separate metric a few days ago out in the Pacific that tracks El Nino... and super duper long story short, it looks like it'll be a very hot and dry summer, and somewhat mild winter. In other words... droughts and fires in the west. On the plus side, (another IIRC...) ocean hurricanes should be pushed away in the Atlantic more because of El Nino, hopefully that doesn't mean Gulf hurricanes are worse, though.

@Doctor-Phibes said: These far left folks never change. They're driven by the conviction that government can do things better despite so much overwhelming evidence to the contrary, however well-meaning the intention. If I'm honest, I probably felt that way when I was 17 years old, but my excuse is I was 17 years old. Suggesting that the intention was kind is… optimistic.

That was fun

@kalus what do you use it for.? I would assume that for technical things like coding, etc., it would be useful, but for regular stuff (for example, fart composition), maybe not so much.

I saw him once before, at Carnegie hall, 15-20 years ago. He played Schumann’s Symphonic Etudes. Come to think of it it was probably 20 years ago, since I remember I was working on them (well maybe half of them) at the time.

Enjoy your time there!!

Ahahahaha!

@jon-nyc took me a while, but I did finally get it. 555

Something tells me he doesn't know what permanent means.

The guy who owns the mom and pop store where I get my bagel in the morning said he may be pivoting to AI too. If he can sell the place for a couple of billion he's going to give all his regular customers free bagels for life. I may be in for a windfall!

There are a lot of big energy and energy related companies on the S and P. And wars tend to stimulate the economy at least in the short term. Also there might be some Trump Fatigue Syndrome. Anyway, all good.
