Big of you to assume I only watch "if the story is good".

The kids make me watch Transformers - completely devoid of suspense or consistency. That 4k 120Hz OLED is the only thing getting me through that gauntlet.

> I gave it my google api key

This is the part where the narrator looks at the camera and says "Don't try this at home, kids!"

If they had drawn the proposed line, it would still be the same distance from the coast today. So its presence would be a detriment to global warming proponents.

The screen needs to freeze up and go blank every few minutes with an announcement from the cockpit about the windspeed at our destination.

Ignore the "dropbox-in-a-weekend" trolls, they're just nosy. Your project sounds interesting, good luck.

I don't disagree with you main point but thought this was funny:

> They literally borrow money to buy these things. So if they can afford it,

Borrowing money would indicate they can't afford it. But I think you mean "afford the risk in order to achieve a societal norm".

> I've owned a lot of IKEA furniture

same.

> and at no point have I ever considered disassembling them

That is wise. I don't claim disassembling it for move was a good idea, but it compressed my stuff into a compact car.

Consider also that some of their beds don't fit through a doorway built (esp if doorway is not code width) so some level of disassembly may be required for mere room-to-room moving.

I'm only calling out a tradeoff that may or may not apply. Not everyone is you and me.

> I don't think IKEA really even advertises their stuff to be a

The whole point of this thread (this site?) is repurposing outside of creator intent.

> If you can afford and have a place for long term. Buy better stuff. Used quality furniture, even antique, can be incredibly cheap.

IKEA is ideal for a certain stage of your life. It's ideal for optimizing vertical space. It's largely function over form. It looks like middle school classroom furniture. And when junior writes on it w/ a sharpie ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

When you have the space for a separate dining room, agreed that used antiques are comparable in price.

I wouldn't touch their couches rich or poor though; they're painful.

This makes any assembly 1-way, though. Some people (with a very high time:money ratio obviously) might find the collapsible, portable nature of Ikea an advantage.

This would be a fire FPS especially if the bullets traveled along the curve.

Or Office Space

There's Goldilocks zone for resumes where you want enough buzzwords to get past the recruiter but not so many that Hiring manager would reject you.

I know what gp is saying. They want to stay credible to the general public without also bearing the over-polished and verbose hallmark of LLM.

You're not the only one. I never stopped to delve into what this N+1 problem was b/c I assumed it was never an issue for me. All these years and this is the 1st time I've finally understood what they were saying.

However, after going back and forth with LLM on it just now, I feel like "1+N" is just a coding mistake, not a perplexing multi-faceted, engineering problem to be solved. Experience or a slow application would teach you to find a better way to get that info and then you move on.

Possibly. But I noticed offhand in the DFW, Texas area there many local streets - sometimes flat ground-level parking lots - paved entirely in concrete, not just highways. Apparently for them the up front investment in "normal" (portland?) concrete is more economical.
