  • Yeah the company I work for is having our 3rd or 4th Reduction In Force this year... Upper management is also pushing hard for us to all use more AI.

    It's great, not only are we understaffed with impossible deadlines, but we lost all of our tribal knowledge, and half the fires we are fighting are due to inexperienced workers using AI for everything.

    ‘R-tarded’ is a slur, and I’m sick of otherwise “liberal” people going along with the right’s move to renormalize it

  • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retard_(pejorative)

    For context, until the 1960s, the terms moron, idiot, cretin, and imbecile were all genuine, non-offensive terms used, including by psychiatrists, to refer to people with mental intellectual disabilities and low intelligence. These words were discontinued in that form when concerns arose that they had developed negative meanings, with "retard" and "retarded" replacing them.[6][7] After that, the terms "handicapped" (United States) and "disabled" (United Kingdom) replaced "retard" and "retarded". Disabled is now considered a more polite term than handicapped in the United States as well.

    There's dozens of similar products sold at home depot, target, and other name brand stores. They sell brush attachments for drills too, I see Ryobi makes some.

    You're saying that a "spin scrubber" shouldn't spin? Huh.

  • It's theoretically possible, some experts think no level of radiation is "safe". Yet, it's so improbable that the risk of developing cancer from a single banana is indistinguishable from background noise. You get a far higher dose of radiation just from living on earth.

    This fun infographic from xkcd shows a comparison of doses, and just how low a banana ranks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_equivalent_dose#/media/File:Radiation_Dose_Chart_by_Xkcd.png

    It would have to be the "perfect shot" of a particle hitting a cell to cause DNA damage that wasn't repairable. And you would need to be extremely immunocompromised.

    If you were in such a position to get cancer from eating a single banana, you would likely already get it from living life.

  • Have you done US district court jury duty? What CAN I bring with me to the courthouse?

    Jump

  • They don't actually tell you why.

    I presume it's because people in stem are more likely to have strong opinions about statistics, validity of tests or science, that sort of thing. Or, they'll sound more competent when discussing with other jurors.

    I also think both sides wanted to appeal to emotions, and have their expert witnesses be the technical authorities.
