Good catch, I didn’t see that before your comment. 😂

What does the venn diagram of horse girls and neurodivergence look like? (I’m actually curious, not trying to make an inference to one extreme or the other).

It’s cut just a little too short to be Paul Rudd. I need to see Mac at the end and Conan laughing throughout.

I upvoted your gratitude comment, I’m not a huge commenter but I’ve done similar. There’s so much decisiveness and bickering from miscommunication and misunderstanding that it’s nice seeing when people support each other through it.

It’s a refernce to Chris Farley’s movie Tommy Boy.

I agree with you, I recently explained it to a group of engineers and techs.

I haven’t read the article but what’s described in the headline is abhorerent. Ironically the technology could be used to identifying times when artists’ identities are being misattributed or stolen. Pretty simple for an artist to define their portfolio then have a bot flag anything it finds with their signature on it that they didn’t create themselves.

The backlash was because your response is ambiguous, it was likely interpretted by the people criticizing you as a legitimate question rather than your intended sarcasm.

I’d expect most or nearly all people active in this conversation agree that parasocial relationships are bad but you’re continuing on like their criticism of your communication is an endorsement for celebrity worship.

Canada is alternative option. British Columbia has similar geography to Oregon and we likewise have national parks. There’s lots of regions where Canada and US each have complementary national parks on the border with hiking trails that cross the border into each other’s parks. I don’t know how those are being managed under the current state of affairs however.

The original justification for patents at least had some logic to it. In exchange for progressing the state of the art and telling everyone else how your new invention works you get a period of market exclusivity. There was/is the option to not patent ideas and keep them as trade secrets instead, at the risk of others figuring out your idea.

Unfortunately for all of us 20 years is a really long time for exclusivity at our current tech development pace and in no way are patents consumable information for laypeople. The nonsense filings that get granted and all the lawyers involved have turned it into yet another tool only available to the wealthy.

Unfortunately this looks to be another area where a previously functioning service is no longer being provided at the same level of quality.

What deliberately two faced language this is. The executive sitting in US contributing nothing to the creation of this product technically fulfills the statement that it’s made with American jobs.

I wouldn’t put it past these companies to put this type of marketing on products 100% from Mexico or any other North or South American country. Gross manipulation of technical correctness.

There’s Glacier on the US side and Waterton in Canada that are ajacent to each other. There were hiking trails that cross the border when I was there in 2009.
