In primates small testicle size is correlated with how many males a female typically mates with. More males mating with the same female means the male that produces the most sperm has an advantage. So gorillas have tiny balls because every troop only has one silverback male, and chimps have horrifically huge nuts because there’s a lot of competition for mates from other males in the troop.

Interestingly, humans fall roughly in the middle of the scale in terms of ball size!

Hormones have helped me keep a baby face but have done nothing for my joints, unfortunately u_u

Hello fellow old 👋

“Streams containing informational or educational content that aim to share knowledge in a neutral, fact-based manner, rather than engaging in any kind of advocacy for an issue or candidate” are not subject to labelling, however.

Oh boy, can’t wait to see which facts (like transition regret being in the low single digit percentages) get determined to be “advocacy”!

Oh, I don’t even mean from lost sales, I mean because this service is fundamentally going to cost more than the “theft” (lol) it’s allegedly stopping. If any one employee (or even a team) is doing this at scale and a business needs AI tracking customers to pick up on it, there is something drastically wrong.

This service is basically pure AI hype. It’s not doing anything a minimally engaged manager couldn’t already do with the salary you’re having to pay them anyway. Except the AI is also doing it worse and at a higher cost. Yay!

About a month ago, Israel-based Corsight AI began offering its global clients access to a new service aimed at rooting out what the retail industry calls “sweethearting,”—instances of store employees giving people they know discounts or free items.

Lol, I hope stores that use this lose millions on this stupid ass privacy invasion. Anyone stupid enough to believe the savings of catching a 10% employee discount used occasionally for friends or whatever is going to offset whatever the fuck this most recent torment nexus is going to cost frankly deserves to be swindled.

The purpose of a system is what it does.

What he means is the quisling vote. Yeah, I imagine you will get some of that, lol.

Isn’t this just Chrono Trigger?

So he’ll stop “trying” to get there (using the hype to scam people) if Harris wins, right?

Anything worth doing is worth half assing. If you don’t feel like doing the assignment, sit down and start doing the work, but badly. Don’t check your work or self edit, for reading just skim it. No matter how badly you do it, it’s still going to be better than none of it being done.

Often just starting is enough to get you engaged and do better work. And if it’s not, well, half assed is better than nothing.

I’ve never seen any, we don’t have Woolies where I live. Store brand chips just come in a bag.

I’m not saying it’s definitely a recovered memory from a past life as an amoeba, but if you did recover a memory from a past life as an amoeba it would probably be a lot like that

Makes sense, because the flavor/satisfaction to dollar ratio isn’t great. But it’s the only chip you can get in a neat stack and easily individually count out.

My client doesn’t give me a number, but I would estimate it as at least equal to the number you have blocked. Comprised almost entirely of people who are trolls, spam bots, or generally incredibly unpleasant and not who I want polluting my feed.

I don’t think you should be embarrassed by it at all, instances themselves can easily be viewed as curated block lists, as any instance not filled to the brim with internet refuse is going to be blocking at least some instances (along with all the users on it). Adding a few hundred more to it is just fine tuning.

You sound overly anxious, it’s only nuclear war if the internet has gone down.

May I introduce you to our lord and savior, Aldi?

Yup! Didn’t expect a bit on whale monitoring tech in a video on Europa

I haven’t stopped wearing an N95 in public since 2020. I’m not going to say nobody has ever been weird to me about it, but the vast majority of people are more interested in my colorful hat than my mask. YMMV depending on location.

Thanks for the medication info! I’ve been in therapy and currently have a psychiatrist but haven’t focused much on the screaming issue. I’ll bring it up in my next appointment to see if it would work well with my meds.
