So I got jumpscared recently by that couple. I was listening to one of my many favourite podcasts, Threedom, when on the most recent episode, "I Definitely Tuned Out and I Agree With You", this exchange happened, starting around 44 minutes, give or take 10 for ads.
Context: the hosts are talking about how they value fostering their children's expressive abilities, even if that means their children do things like scream in inappropriate situations.
Scott: I guess what I'm trying to say is that some parents would look at us, and say, like, "oh, you're not teaching them how to act in social situations or whatever,"
Paul: Yes, you should slap them across the face, in the store.
<laughter>
Scott: Who was that... that... that, like, person who... there's some parent out there that thinks that you need to like have a million kids or whatever and uh, and a paper writer followed them around and he just smacked his kid right in front of the paper writ-, er... the journalist? Uh, anyway...
Lauren: Paper writer?
Scott: Yeah, sorry, sorry, Journalist.
Paul: Couldn't sound more specific, and yet I don't know.
<end of reference>
Tried too hard transcribing this and still feel like I did a bad job.
Anyway, gosh, congrats to them on their extreme success in being platformed. Couldn't have been a more deserving couple. /s
*pisspig is the name given to a fan of the podcast Threedom. The fans picked the name, the hosts aren't really sure why.
Saw a video talking about Google officially releasing “nano banana pro” which i regret to inform you is a real product and that the video was not a shitpost.
noted! The dub was so bad i didn’t even think about whether or not it was autodubbed. Fortunately, through the combination of my rapidly fading japanese language skills, experience in code switching between english and other languages, and the spirit of aku-soku-zan, I managed to understand a lot of it beyond the premise itself.
NAS: Found out just now that Simone Veil’s pictures for sad children is back online, and has been for a while now. Her art meant a lot to me when I was reading it. Just letting you all know in case it meant something to you too.
one of Earth's top scientists on sex and gender has published her latest work, open for all to read in a widely read venue on that science topic, where it will receive far more peer scrutiny than any lesser forum provides
I'm going to read this as a joke because he didn't end it with a period, and he is secretly beefing with aella
I’m pretty sure a data lakehouse is a database where if you insert data in it, it only appears two years later/earlier, and if you try to read from it, all the entries come from two years in the future/past. It’s very prone to predestination issues but can help with finding love
the company is a data analytics platform. According to wikipedia they promote the model of a “data lakehouse”, a hydrid of a “data lake” and a “data warehouse”. I don’t know what any of this means
Sneer answer: 100% LLM feces. Databricks puts the anal in analytics
Yeah SMRs rule. They are so easy to build. You just move the map over to where you want them to be built, press the Building button or hotkey (B) and then choose the SMR (hotkey: S). Then you move the mouse over to where you want to place the SMR; a silhouette will appear at the target location. You click to start the build. It’s 150 minerals, 50 gas, and takes 15 seconds to construct. Just a few keypresses and you have green, clean energy anywhere you want it :) Crazy that nuclear power is so easy to get but governments treat it like it’s so scary.
The Gatotsu is a fictional swordfighting style from the manga/anime series Rurouni Kenshin wielded by Saitou Hajime, one of the main characters. It also refers to the frequent stance and movement Hajime makes when fighting.
In the video, Alex Karp stands next to a young woman. One may surmise that he is trying to impress her with a display of sword mastery. In his right hand he is holding a broad, curved sword, maybe a sabre. His left arm is outstretched at shoulder height in front of him, pointing at an imaginary target, and the sword is pointing at the same target, held at the same height with the flat side parallel to the ground. He performs an awkward looking thrust, as if mimicking the Gatotsu as mentioned above. In the rest of the video he is playing around with the sword, sometimes performing the same thrust and otherwise tossing it limply around in his hand.
