Author chose a brand based on loyalty instead of doing research. Leverage the web indeed - Google Search would have quickly revealed Electrolux is mediocre.

Plus, the manufacturer can't run a simple website to look up serial numbers, so author prefers their AI-based solution? And then builds one himself? This post reads like satire.

I've never used Perl and I am not confused. It's just an eyeroll-inducing referential joke, and ironically a perfect example of OP's point. See also: $BIGCORP, Day_Job, etc

They could have just said "the most important language [...] is spoken language".

Not everyone "misses" the point. People can take what they want and choose to discard the rest. Consider, for example, watching beach volleyball not for the thrill of the sport but to ogle the players. That they're also engaged in serious competition is not lost on anyone - the audience just doesn't care.

Some authoritarians also like vigilante violence and find it in The Punisher. Some racists also like futuristic fiction and find it in Star Trek. The rest of the work don't fly over their heads - it is willfully ignored because it doesn't match their worldview.

Many people are perfectly capable of getting e.g. the moods, visuals, themes, ideas conveyed by poetry, and it simply doesn't match their taste. That doesn't make them morons, and to imply otherwise is snobbery.

> Karoline Leavitt: “This alleged assessment is flat-out wrong and was classified as ‘top secret’ but was still leaked to CNN by an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community. The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump, and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran’s nuclear program. Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.”

All the juicy intel is right here in this press statement. The bombs struck bullseye and killed satire dead.

How can burning 150 kg of mass create 750 kg of mass?

"Don't let a shallow first impression affect your deeper judgement, but expect others to let it affect theirs."

If piano lessons is what trained you not to abandon a crying baby, I'm not sure to say.

Not very upbeat actually. The episode drops several reminders that the simulated people can't die, by accident or choice. After they tire of life, they are trapped in an eternity of boredom and madness.

You fundamentally misunderstand the concepts. The other poster is correct. Given two orbits, it takes just as much energy to get "up" as it does to get "down".

Any additional capability will be quickly filled with bloat, especially in the video game industry, where optimization is for post-release.

Expect a lot of creatively bankrupt tech demos with eye-watering hardware requirements.

Not quite "never": e.g. Napster

> 54% of adults have a literacy below a 6th-grade level (20% are below 5th-grade level).

From the link.

Satisfying the desire for retribution has to be one of the system's goals, otherwise people would take matters into their own hands. However, you are correct that it shouldn't be the main goal, or even a major one.
