I find cast iron to be a bit heavy for everyday use, carbon steel gets you most of the benefits while giving you more flexibility on the weight.
The only thing I use my non stick for is omelette dishes mostly because it’s much easier to fold French omelet when you can lift the pan easily with 1 hand.

Both of you are assholes.
Nothing warrants destroying things over a perceived misgendering.
At the same time, a bit of an asshole response from you, when you could have just politely said that you meant dude as gender neutral term

Unpopular opinion, but Tesla model 3 has been the best car with the lowest total cost of ownership.
Electricity is cheaper than gas by a lot, no moving parts or fluids to replace except washer fluid, brakes last forever since it’s Regen braking.
It’s also pretty fun to drive.
Not a fan of the dude, and never bought into the hype on the tech side, but it’s a solid car.

“Boring and Safe” when the man has a button to literally annihilate the world 10 times over and can literally lead the world into WW3/massive trade wars/destroy countries over night seems petty logical.

No, because I need too much information for work. This would render me unable to perform my work, so I would need at least the replacement salary.

Not really.
Now the 15 sponsored links will be irrelevant to YOU as a user since they can’t personalize the ads.
They can still use context advertising which does not use your personal information but only what you are giving to them for search.
Amazon search is probably the least impacted by this, since they use context advertising by default.

I’m in tech and It’s literally not falling.
People are still hiring, just the bar is no longer absurdly low.
During the pandemic, everyone was hiring like crazy, and people coming out of boot camps were instantly hired even when they didn’t understand algorithms, didn’t understand system design, and didn’t understand engineering principles.
Now, you actually need to have a brain to be hired.
Tech is also not a bubble, because tech is in every single industry now. You might get froth in certain segments of tech (crypto, AI, whatever is the current “hot thing”), the market fundamentals are absurdly good. Operating margins of mature software companies are consistently in the mid 20s to 30s.

Degrowth is a dangerous ideology. For those living in rich countries, degrowth might just mean austerity, for those living in middle and lower income countries, degrowth is going to mean destitution and certain death for x percentage of the population.

I’m not convinced by any mass society that is altruistic, but it’s very simple to see that the natural state of human small groups is quite communal.
What mother has a ledger for the child’s share of food?
We have an entire feeling brain that’s dedicated to relationship building that’s very much the core of most small group relationships.
I’m also very convinced that this model does not work past Dunbar’s Number (~100-150 individuals), and most attempts at building communal society outside of that without some cohersion and some better way of organizing incentives is not possible.

Assuming x percentage of legally acquired guns can be diverted to illicit means.
Less overall Availability of guns means less overall availability of guns in the illicit market.

Disenfranchised minorities. I mean the Panthers literally started California gun control.
Though I think more gun control is no doubt better for society.

You can also copyright the original character and make AI generate all the motions of that character. Since the originals was (human) created and copyrighted, it doesn’t matter that AI created art derived from that character isn’t copyrightable in of itself.
Plus there is also trademarks for character likeness.
All in all, I agree with you, this is a non issue for Hollywood studios.
"Our primary conclusion across all scenarios is that without enough fresh real data in each generation of an autophagous loop, future generative models are doomed to have their quality (precision) or diversity (recall) progressively decrease," they added. "We term this condition Model Autophagy Disorder (MAD)." Interestingly, this might be a more challenging problem as we increase the use of generative AI models online.
Now that ffx/x-2 HD is 10 years old, isn't it time for a true ffx remake? I have such great memories playing the original game as a kid, but the current HD remaster screwed up the character models. I would love a ps5 version of ffx. The story is absolutely wonderful, and I'm sure if someone puts a decent amount of effort in it, they can fix a lot of the more grindy parts of the game along with a blizball update that could make it really fun.
Liu and her friend Kelsey Chang, 22, were hiking when they encountered a US man, who apparently tried to sexually assault Liu and threw both women off a cliff Chang survived the 50-metre (164-foot) fall, but Liu, who was taken to hospital by mountain rescuers, died the same night
It's a bit of a long podcast, but it raised some very good points. As an Asian American who went to a elite school, I'm very much torn between the two camps myself. However, I'd be very curious to hear other folks thoughts on this matter, especially on the points raised in this podcast.
