Interesting, thanks. I knew silage was a thing we fed to farm animals but didn’t know what it was or why we use it.

The original was funny to me because people thought the second guy was fine when the reality would be if a woman is calling human resources there’s probably something there. It’s a joke told from the perspective of someone who’s unable to see anything wrong and is only representing their side of the story. So I thought this was a riff on that idea, and viewed in that light this version is funny too.

That’s not what I read here at all - it says “I should keep this.” Many of us have an urge to keep things, and in many cases we’re justified in doing so. Every person has had the experience of evaluating whether or not to keep an object, and I would guess most people have come up with specious reasons to tell themselves they should keep a thing. Hoarding is just taking that to the extreme. Because this comic is recognizing a tendency in one’s self it seems completely misplaced to say it’s punching down.

As long as you follow a first in last out method no problem

I started to read the pdf but stopped. Just a little bit in and it struck me as complicated, and that’s as someone familiar with ranked choice voting, proportional voting, etc. Not that complexity is inherently bad, but when it comes to group decision making, elegant solutions will encourage many people to participate. Complicated solutions will favor people with lots of time or money.

I also don’t think weighing systems so that certain people have more of a say than others is ideal. It’s true that experts know more than lay people. But there are challenges in identifying and labeling experts, deciding what being an expert in a given subject should mean in terms of more power/influence, and in doing so creating mechanisms for gaming the system.

One quibble, this guy wasn’t a worker, he was the boss. The decision maker.

Have you done any of the items in your second paragraph? If so can you share how it’s gone and what you judge the impact has been?

Yes, I do. Sure they’ll do that, but I think they’ll have a tiny bit of second guessing. Would certainly be more impactful if this was a trend rather than one off.

Yeah, Americans reading this on lemmy! Why didn’t you stop… something… from happening?? You definitely are the demographic who supports maga and also definitely have the ability to change the results of an election.

I’m a coding hobbyist, it’s been very helpful in analyzing bugs, giving quick info about syntax and converting formatting for long sections where manually typing would be time intensive.

Point taken by someone else here saying continued use of AI may mean decreased functionally for stack exchange et al. That said, the advantage of AI is that it’s answering your question specifically, instead of spending time sifting through semi related answers.

Outside of code it’s good at aping the form of various genres. So if I need to answer an RFP question in a sales proposal, I might feed it the prompt to get a starting point. It always needs editing since it doesn’t know the details of our business and because it’s writing style is bland, but it’s helpful to get a first draft.

Thanks, got me reading the Wikipedia article about the revolutions of 48.

Dressing wildlife is illegal? The nanny state at work again

What would become tedious, eliminating crimes from the books? I’m not saying we need to go on some campaign, just here’s a law that isn’t being used, isn’t just, and they’re getting rid of it. That’s good.

We should reduce as much as possible laws that make something illegal but aren’t enforced. It creates uncertainty about your position and allows authorities to threaten citizens for unrelated reasons.

At the time I’m reading this the title notes that this design is from 1985. Here’s an article I came across with more info.

I could beat them both with my invention, the megaspear

Right, there’s also a constitutional amendment saying insurrectionists can’t stand for office

Ok with me.

What was a time where you were doing a dad-ly duty and got it totally wrong?

Interesting tidbit I didn’t know is that they’ve found fungi growing on the outside of the ISS
