I just love how he and Skinner had it out. Skinner wrote “Verbal Behavior”, Chomsky responded, and Skinner’s takeaway was “well, he didn’t read this at all.” And declared himself the winner. Meanwhile Chomsky was expecting a rebuttal, never got one, and declared himself the winner.
Or maybe during their “Killology” training (yes really) one of them might say “Wait, this is insane bullshit. And has this trainer even seen a gun before?!”
You haven’t been paying much attention to the Republican party as of late, have you? “Circle the wagons and toe the line” has been their schtick for a while now.
I was on sumaglutide for a month. Made me ravenously hungry and gave me nonstop stomach cramps that only went away when eating. Fuckin’ sucked, as it raised my fasting blood sugar by a lot, too.
Often it’s a requirement of the workplace (typically acadaemia, e.g. R1 institutions), and it’s paid for in large part by various grants from the government. Or done for free in “spare time” as is the case where I work. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Ever since the comic stopped regular updates I forget about it for awhile then I have a few random updates to go back through. Glad Gurewitch is still making new material, even if it’s infrequent.

all they are good for is making things sound fancy.
Ehh, I use NovelAI, and it kind of turns writing into an interactive CYOA game. If I get stuck in a scene and I dunno what to put next, I’ll have a character say or do something, and let the AI go “yeah! And—” like a good improv partner in my voice.
But it’s not a “discussion” or instruct model, so it’s slightly less stupid. Except when it gets written facts wrong that are active in the lorebook and memory, and it ignores them.
Yeah, it’s not. No one levels those properly and projectors should be used with LEDs, not reflectors. Also, tye temperature of the light (blue light is harsh and males it harder to see without high beams), the little LED strip lights that replaced headlights on a bunch of models now don’t help either.
