Just remember that month suggestions online are for certain geographic areas. You might need to move them earlier or later. (The best rules I have seen is when nights are above 50 F in North America)

Its not even carbonated. I bought it thinking that carbonated coconut water would be awesome. It is not but tastes pretty good.

- Comment on Hasbro CEO Says AI Will Become Core Part of Dungeons & Dragons 2 months ago:
They already have a character tools on both Dndbeyond and roll20. The rest are already in the “This is your life” section of xanathars. Nothing AI needed

I am happy getting physical products since they can’t be changed and I own them. Nothing digital ever again

Sound terrible

Never “buy” a digital only product. They have already taken them away once

Only DND and AI combination I want is a massive random table. I want thousands of good human made ideas that I can query for a random selection using tags. This is not what is going to be made.
Using current AI for DND ideas gives the worse most cliche and generic responses that bore me to tears.

With the way rural voters get disproportionate voting power its insane that rural broadband isn’t everywhere. Shows how money interests take over rural interests in that party

My old boss moved to his lake house / cabin since he could work from home full time. I know many people who would love to if they could. Universal WFH could have massive boons for small towns if it was allowed.

Well all the fancy tools give people confidence into their terrible data. Crap in leads to crap out

Yup. I hope we move back to data mining. I loved to joke that I put on my hardhat and go into the data mine every morning

I’ve been a professional data scientist for 5+ years and I’m okay at my job. Good enough to get 3 different jobs at non FAANG companies and I have already 3 or so hype trains and name changes of what words we use for the same tools and techniques. This AI hype is going to be another one of these with a few niche cases.
Most of my job is insisting on doing something correctly and then being told that doesn’t give the “correct” response based on leadership expectations. I just change what I do until I get the results that people want to see. I’ll just ride this hype wave out here for a few years here learning nothing new again. I’ll find another job based on my experience and requirements gathering to start the cycle again. Maybe I’ll get more data engineering skills which are actually valid

That’s true. But the majority can be.

I recommend every man to read Ejaculate Responsibly. The basic concept is that the options for men to prevent pregnancy such as condoms and vasectomy. They are safe with no side effects. Most vasectomies are reversibility. Get one. I’m planning on getting one after having all the kids I want.
