Your tongue is way more tacticle. We spend most of our toddler years discovering this.
You can look at anything around you, anyrhing, and your brain knows exactly what it would be like to lick it. Taste, texture, residue etc… it’s quite freaky
Oh and my thighs are really good at imagining my phone just buzzed.

- Comment on It begins: Pentagon to give AI agents a role in decision making, ops planning. 4 weeks ago:
I mean theyve been using war games, simulations and all sorts of “models” long before they became commercially available. Asking another statistics tool for a result is not different, and to me isn’t “playing a role” as much as the title implies.
- Comment on I don't want to enhance my productivity 4 weeks ago:
That’s the only difference between a dictatorship and a democracy. A dictatorship can run with dying illiterate slaves and still make a lot of money. In a democracy the money comes from the productivity of the citizens. That’s the only reason you get highways, schools, hospitals…
So they started out by making us more productive by giving a ton of amenities to the boomers. But now they need more, so they are cutting back on things that make us productive, while demanding we be more productive.
We should just eat the rich.

- Comment on YSK about Jury Nullification, if you're an American and you don't, look it up. 5 weeks ago:
This post does not say jury nullification shouldn’t exist/be allowed. It says the opposite.
- Comment on YSK about Jury Nullification, if you're an American and you don't, look it up. 5 weeks ago:
Unpopular take but despite it being a popular thing, we want jury nullification to come from individual conclusions that this law does no apply despite the circumstances, and not because they know they can. Every study ever has shown that people who know about jury nullification tend to dismiss evidence more often, and are more easily deceived by a sympathetic/ non-sympathetic looking defendant. It’s not even a law, it’s the result of the fact juries can’t be persecuted for their decisions so really they can do whatever they want. This is enough to know that technically you can “nullify the law”.
Saying the law doesn’t actually apply despite the person having done the thing the law says not to do is very different from saying the punishment should be nil. This could also keep you from ever serving on a jury and telling others about this in certain circumstances could be a crime. All the legal minds who looked into this agree it should still remain a thing, but it shouldn’t be told to jurors explicitly. When you serve you swear to uphold the law, so it’s tricky to nullify without purgery except for very very special cases.
This is not a good YSK, you should understand what the law is as a juror.

- Comment on "Reality" is often thought as a paragon of neutrality, being neither good nor bad. So why is a "reality check" ALWAYS felt negatively? 1 month ago:
There’s an interesting book on psychology (by a nobel Prize winner) called “Thinking Fast and Slow”, Daniel Khaneman.
It’s called regression to the mean. It seemed that yelling after bad pilots made them good. Kahneman proved that yelling at them when they were good made them bad too. It’s just that great pilots can sometimes be bad, and bad pilots can sometimes be good, it had little to do with how they pushed them.

We sneer at it too, but here it’s built into people’s wages. If i could vote to abolish it i would
- Comment on Best way to turn off people and get lower tips 1 month ago:
Well yeah, if you dont declare all your income to dodge taxes, they shouldn’t be surprised the income can’t be used for credit.
It also depends how the company declares their outgoing tips and contributions (different in US vs canada of even states/provinces).
- Comment on Best way to turn off people and get lower tips 1 month ago:
Thats europe. In north america, waiters are paid below minimum wage and the tips are supposed to make up the rest.
15% i think is still what the gov expects for wages, so in theory thats for just plain service, forcing us to either hurt the waiter or pay the fee. It’s a terrible system.

I’m in Canada so left on silver parachute due to mass layoff laws.
The issue in most places isn’t the abrupt notice, it’s the shitty labor laws
- Comment on Report: Unity continues mass layoffs with 'abrupt' communications and 5am emails 1 month ago:
I was part of the first big wave and they hard warned us maybe potentially there might perhaps be restructing and “resizing”. We agonized for months waiting to know if it was our teams or no, if we had to look (this was before Unity nosedived and buddy quit).
I would have preferred it be abrupt I think

- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 1 month ago:
dude just Google “flagship meaning”
the best or most important thing owned or produced by a particular organization.
Theres a company called The minimal company, their best and most important product is a small “minimal phone”. That’s their flagship phone. It’s not hard to understand

Terms have specific uses, let’s not dilute them to make ourselves feel better. Language IS fluid, but when people are obstinate to already preestablished conventions
Ok there why didn’t you bother opening a dictionary or googling it.
noun the ship in a fleet which carries the commanding admiral. the best or most important thing owned or produced by a particular organization.
He’s just saying most phones companies (of all sizes) have big phones. Get over yourself
