For artificial intelligence, I think it's more often marketing driven development. It's easier to seem disruptive if you claim to have AI in your product. Easier to get funding and have people talk about your company. I feel like it comes more often from business executives than technical people.

I think that, even if you ignore or don't notice pain, it still will have, in the long run, some effect on your psyche. The same way prolonged background noise will turn you insane even if you're not hearing it. I think in a lot of cases, chronic conditions are co-morbid with depression not because people actively weep over being in pain, but because a constant pain signal ends up having an effect on how the brain is wired. In my case, even though I ignore/don't notice pain most of the time, it definitely increased my general sensibility to regular pain and discomfort, physical or psychological. Ignoring your own body also leads to derealization, also in my case. But if I sit down and practice mindfulness, it makes it easier to deal with. Something I think about often is that picture of the Tibetan monk setting himself on fire. He's not ignoring the pain, he's very much aware of it, but he's detached from it.

It would be weird to block those as they are pejorative used only by people who oppose these things. Try "national socialist freedom fighter". I don't know what child porn is called by pedophiles.

May be anecdotal but my family is friends with two parents, the father French and the mother American. They and their children lived a few years in France and Montréal, and they spoke the two languages at home. I remember two of their children (around 8-9 years old at the time), not being really fluent in any language, but actually quite mediocre at both. They would start a sentence in french, struggle on grammar or vocabulary, and end up giving up and finishing it in English. I can't imagine what it would be like with two more languages.

You should embrace suffering, not pain. If you're in pain it means something is wrong and you should stop, or you will hurt yourself and take longer to recover.

On big boards there's so many posts per hour that it's impossible to really predict this way, it's very much luck.

I remember people used to run scripts to be sure to get the big gets (6+ last digits identical) but I suppose such methods don't work anymore with captcha and other anti spam measures.

I believe OP was referencing the bird rescued when coming back home, which came back a few days later, not the one 30 years ago which OP never saw again.

At this point, a lot of (maybe even most) skeptics don't believe in man-made climate change simply because they strongly dislike the most prominent speakers against climate change, because they often also have liberal/progressive ideas. They see Bill Nye with his rap about gender and think "that's who thinks we're causing climate change ? I'm not believeing in that." It seems like climate change is a right wing vs left wing debate when it shouldn't be.

This is suprising. I'm at the start of a data/ML engineering career and working at hedge funds that use technological methods seem very appealing to me. They are known for topping FAANG compensation offers and the work seems innovative and interesting tech-wise.
