the serenity prayer (or mantra, for the non-religious)

to add, the “basic” part is subjective, like you said, and downplaying other knowledge the generation might have.

can’t really say what a good diplomatic response for this should be. i usually just shrug and say “sorry” when complained with this.

ahhh, the trick has been dispelled. it isn’t as magical as i thought it was.

“it depends on your <xyz>”

which commonly follows up with “look it up”.

it’s a perfect 2 cents added to the table.

i guess any other 2 cents will do too.

the compromise could be that they should take their own cameras down then do door to door petitions on who actually wants them.

that’s how i knew it was balanced …in a fucked up way

i don’t think that applies at all.

if you have no idea what you’re doing, you’re surely going to think all the churned out stuff is good.

it’s like gambling. you hope it churns out good stuff – and some of the time, it does! lucky!

then you try your luck again. and again with small “fixes”. and again.

thanks, well said!

not really sure i got the point here. is it that public servants only exist because there’s lobbying?

lobbying works because we can’t trust people. we trust money instead.

so, i guess in the proper response format, incorruptible representatives?

netherlands seem to have versterving as a word for this.

maybe go for the loan word approach?

for me, it’s when most of my decisions start making big impacts.

sure, there’s still time for amateur hour, but be sure to get back up quick if you ever trip or fall.

academia is a fun time. so some people still stick to it.

for me it’s reading lots. then, it’s hours of watching TV copying how toastmasters do it. then you start to feel you ain’t street and talking all boujee.

how did the “fraud” part of the scheme work?

he is an extremely biased news host.

also sweaty. didn’t know i could see sweaty people out of 3rd person shooters.

thanks for the explanation!

i didn’t quite get it the first time i saw the popularity.

loool, looks like that’s it with the sources. thanks, billionaires!

at first i thought this was the 911 dispatcher job. those tend to be stressful.

the general idea, imo, for logistics is they rely on your prediction/ management/ routing to get things from here to there on time.

any kind of job that involves prediction always goes in my hard bucket. either person with that job got their books in, or they are in lip service side.

ai slop is really getting better nowadays.

i just initially doubt anything until i get a matching news from more sources.

reading more variety helps since you get a base list of what sources tend to put up reliable news.
