Bring back partial anterior encephalectomies

replied to:

Which part of the brain would you remove?

replied to:

It seems like removing some of the connections between the anterior and frontal cortices could have positive effects.

I think you're perfect as you are :)

The TPMS indicator came back on again today; on the same road, can you believe it? I might have to get it checked at Costco this weekend.

akkor ennyi volt a türelem, megyek haza nemsokára, és lebontom a dual bootot a lapcsiról, és a körmére nézünk már ennek a Gemmának

That's all for now, I'll be home soon and take the dual boot off the laptop, and we'll see what happens to this Gemma.

replied to:

You know, as interesting as that sounds, I wouldn't at all know where to begin with something like that. Do you have a suggestion?

replied to:

I suggest looking around your area first, perhaps there are conservation groups already. Then, select among them which one focuses on native species that are most impactful to your place. 😁

I'm looking for a way to manage my bookmarks easily on desktop and Android. Anyone have any experience with software like that? It'd be nice to be able to tag or categorize pages, and maybe to keep local mirrors for certain ones. I'm open to self-hosting. Thanks for reading!

replied to:

I've stopped managing bookmarks after del.icio.us died - now i just hit the browser star but they seem to disappear and never visit them again, apart from the most recent. The situation sucks really. I'm also interested in a good solution.

replied to:

You've hit the nail on the head. But here's the mindblowing part—writing isn't just about text on a page. It's not about listing a bunch of facts to memorize. Writing is about human connection. And here's where it gets even more fascinating... [parody, not AI]

replied to:

Some writing yes, If you want to write a post saying why your company has a position yes; if you are documenting an API, does the average swagger page have a human connection factor? If you are in X/FB, is any of your followers a "human connection"?

continued:

Then, in some spaces, say big corp communications, the terse, direct communication is desired, for example the quarter earning communication? What about software?, what part of your browser gives you the "human connection"?

replied to:

If writing (incl X/FB posts) is meant to convey "some human being did/saw/thought this and found it worth writing about", then AI undermines human connection and will annoy people. API docs, earnings reports, &c never conveyed that to begin with, so nobody will care about AI use.

replied to:

I think slop is not taking the time to refine and polish and simply publishing something as it was handed to you by the . You use AI but the decisions should be yours. Otherwise it's .
