I’m sure they’ve convinced themselves that it’s the “woke mob” that will unjustly cancel them like they did the kind chaps carrying tiki torches in Charlotte. /s
They teach kids in school that cops are your friends, which you would think is some kind of state sanctioned indoctrination program, but it’s actually just naiveté on the part of the educators. If you meet a cop, does it feel like they’re your friend, or does it feel like someone puffing up their chest to try and intimidate you even when you’ve done nothing wrong?
Evolution is an observed phenomenon studied for over a hundred years. Creationism is not. Your comparison is erroneous.
“The most reasonable conclusion…” meaning absent all other evidence, the only conclusion that has any merit is that all creation myths are wrong.
You’re correct. It does meet the definition of combustion. I misspoke. The post claims that cells are being set on fire. That claim is categorically untrue.
Cell respiration and oxidation involves exactly zero forms of combustion fire.
Hmm, let’s see. In order to fully prepare a burrito, you would need to perform numerous tactile actions. First would be grabbing a tortilla. Given the floppy, inconsistently shaped, and thin properties of the tortilla, you couldn’t grab one reliably using a standard 6 axis or suspended picker robot, you would need a tortilla loading mechanism, probably spring loaded with a sensor and servo motor to index the tortilla forward into the work area. Okay, so you have your tortilla loading mechanism. Next is to apply sauces like guac or sour cream. You can achieve this using a suspended robot like an ABB FlexPicker with a sauce application tool or other similarly spec’d robot. Oops! Is the customer allergic to avocado? Looks like the robot needs a tooling change! In fact, it’ll need a tooling change anytime a new sauce is requested. Next is toppings and filling. This would need to be performed using dozens of hoppers and sensors to detect the tortilla underneath. Next is an automated rolling device. You might think you could get away with some kind of motorized roll-your-own cigarette type device, but burritos are also tucked, so you would need some kind of machine that can receive a loaded tortilla into a die, with actuators on the sides to tuck, and perpendicular actuators on the bottom to roll. Next, you need to wrap the tortilla in paper. The same type of device can roll the burrito in paper, but it would need to be a discrete device as to cut down on mess. Now, automatically present the burrito to the customer.
You would need roughly 5 automated stations that include robots, sensors, actuators, and bespoke engineered parts. To control it all, you would need a PLC with enough IO slots to manage all of the signals that are required (ie: signal to indicate tortilla is loaded, signal to indicate that sour cream is empty, signal to indicate that tortilla has failed wrapping, etc there are dozens of signals to process even in simple operations), a massive electrical panel to house all of the control circutry, and you would need at least 1 college educated technician (earning roughly $60-80k per year) to maintain the equipment at all times, but more likely, you’ll need at least 2 technicians per shift.
Then comes the commissioning phase, which given the menu and all of the options Chipotle offers, would take months to fine tune the process. It has moving parts and exists in a location with lots of civilian consumers not wearing PPE, so you’ll have to perform a pre-start health and safety report and get that certified by the right governing body (usually state/province level government agency).
Then comes the paperwork required to terminate thousands of staff legally and the added HR cost of taking managers away from managing in order to terminate their entire staff. Not to mention, the added risk of all of your managers losing faith in the company due to severe morale degradation.
All of this assumes 100% uptime, which is an impossibility. Even Toyota’s lines go down for PMs or faults.
Is that easier than just paying your minimum wage earners a little more?
Incidentally, not even 5 years ago, you could just go on stack overflow and copy and paste a whole topic into your IDE and compile that bitch, and you’d probably wind up with fewer bugs than the normie executives who just learned about ChatGPT yesterday from their 8 year old nephew who uses it to write catfish lovenotes to his teacher from Gordie Howe or some other retired sports guy.
And just a dash of ADHD to spice up the ennui.
Using a word incorrectly 1,000,001 times shouldn’t change the actual dictionary definition of the word.
“She blew them all away!”
There are a ton of companies selling value based companies on “AI” services, when in actuality, it’s just repackaged ChatGPT. Real AI based on ML requires a ton of resources and time in order to train a viable model that does 1 thing properly. Having ChatGPT summarize or write emails for you is not AI and is not adding value to your organization. I’m waiting for that realization to hit.
Can’t motivate people to pokemon go to the polls if they’re feeling like all hope is lost due to climate catastrophe.

The Earth exploding and everyone waking up in a new timeline, having absorbed our prime selves, is somehow more likely now than it was 5 years ago.
StopAntisemitism founder Liora Rez condemned Thunberg, accusing her of prioritizing hatred for Israel over environmental activism despite Israel’s efforts on climate action.
I’m doing a ton of sleuthing, and I can’t find one article detailing any efforts Israel has made to curb climate change.
An interesting take. I assume most people on lemmy are more politically engaged than the average citizen. We can recognize political affiliation from a mile away, and we know (for the most part) what kind of person that makes someone.
Why do you think, after hundreds of years of modern politics, that the average person doesn’t recognize when an opportunistic piece of shit right-wing populist is speaking?
This is what gets me, in Ontario, we have a conservative government that publicly fails at doing literally everything, publicly wastes taxpayer money, everyone complains about them, and nobody voices their support. However, they’re poised to take a 3rd term with a majority government and they poll far and away better than any of the other parties that skew centrist or left of center. We have a rap sheet a mile long of on-brand conservative policies that everyone hates but can’t stop voting for.
Israel has one of, if not the best, intelligence network on the planet. They’re experts at cybersecurity and clandestine operations. They have precision weaponry. They know exactly who is in the line of fire when they launch a rocket.
It’s difficult to say. One of my least favorite mechanics in racing games is rubber banding. Another is rewarding people in last place with a powerup and punishing people in first for being good at the game (looking at you, every single Mario Kart title ever). That being said, there are games without these mechanics and they wind up feeling lifeless, such as Motorstorm and GTA Online races. So the trick to enjoying racing games I’ve found is to play games that only minimally rely on rubber banding, and without blue shell tier powerups, or racing games that deprioritize ranks in favor of adding tons of personality to the experience.
Racing games that truly don’t offend me:
If mainstream blogs are writing about it, what would make someone think that AI companies haven’t thoroughly dissected the problem and are already working on filtering out AI fingerprints from the training data set? If they can make a sophisticated LLM, chances are they can find methods to XOR out generated content.
