Get a dehumidifier.
Ensure ceiling fan rotation is switched on summer mode.
Bag of ice in the freezer to chew on and always have in a drink. Ice trays are no good.
Waterhole.
Office job.
Keeping lights off/low can be psychologically “cooler” for some.
Bed with wet hair or damp towel will help sleep faster.
Wash regularly to scrub “ick” layer and keep fresh skin on top.
Pub.
Ice pack vests. Can DIY. Fucking amazing.
Sit around in your undies and pretend you love it and eventually you do.
I feel that. Every time I need to upgrade a PC part, it’s like going back to the town I grew up in, but 50 years have passed.
you often need to buy it from other countries. For instance, Russia. Not great.
Yeeeeah, I wouldn’t worry about that. Sure we (Australia) are conservative with our fears of mining and exporting uranium, especially with the Cold War and reactor whoopsies around the world. But historically it doesn’t take much for us to go down on an ally.
Just let us finish unloading all our coal off to the worst polluting nations first, then we’ll crack the top-shelf stuff.
Unfortunately it depends on who’s doing it. Who’s creatively in charge and what freedom they get.
At the moment, it’s reliably bad. Even when the vision is good, it’s dominated by invested poo poo.
I really loved your comment. I tried to reply to you, but obv couldn’t. Then tried to PM you, but couldn’t figure it out or I just can’t.
It was really insightful for both perspective on myself and on the community.
Go on…
Just curious if you can.
I have personally yelled, “Fuck off! No means no you fucking creep!” at the top of my lungs in a crowded bar. It was genuine, but over the top so every other person would turn and see them, ruining their chances of “picking up” at that establishment, forcing them to leave.
“Are you okay?”
“Oh, yeah I’m fine. That guy just needed to learn a fucking lesson.”
That does work too, but not on the ones that put shit on you and demand payment, usually operating as 2+. Their tactic is intimidation and drama—playing the victim to you—but it can not be beaten if you’re playing the role of a happy idiot, providing random or exact opposite behaviour to what they’re attempting.
Scammers abroad: Troll with randomness. Laugh at inappropriate times. Nod at them while making the eating food gesture. Randomly start pointing down a street like you’re trying to give directions but just shrug. Pick a random sports team name and say, “Gooooo EAGLES!” while nodding and dancing. Basically pick some random thing, pretend they said it, and you’re going along with it.
If they’re pointing to friendship braclets, you say “9 o’clock.” even though it’s 1:30. If they keep doing it, you just laugh, nod, and clap.
My favourite is pretending I’m deaf and making up signing. When they start gesturing, I repeat the gesture in shock. When they nod, I act disgusted like they’re sick in the head.
They will very quickly move on since you’re a waste of time. The more awkward you make it, the better, especially if you’re drawing looks from others.
Oh, I’ve never looked into it, I just noticed it sometimes. I don’t say anything harmful or nasty, just unpopular so I expect downvote burial even before I hit the post button haha. I figure that’s how it’s always meant to work. Downvotes handle dipshit remarks, mods handle malicious ones. But seems entire conversations with multiple people get removed because, despite all the positive upvotes and people involved in a good ol’ fashion discussion, a mod has a different personal opinion and it all goes. Even the off-hand comments connected to that thread.
Spain’s one of my fav circuits, especially after the last chicane got opened up again. And at the moment, rain may be in the mix on Sunday. Spicy.
Correct. And the body will continue attempting to throw up so long as it continues experiencing the symptoms of being poisoned. It has nothing to do about an empty stomach, if it still thinks the body has ingested something, it will keep purging.
This is the whole premise of motion and sea sickness, the body thinking it’s poisoned. In the case of alcohol, it actually is.
There isn’t one. At least one that you have a say in. Your purpose is to be a part of nature as you always have and always will be. Your purpose right now is to conduct yourself as you are, since that’s how nature made you to be. You will die, as nature has purposed. You will be re-used as nature has purposed. You will never again be in the natural state you are currently in, but you will always be a part of nature.
Reflect frequently upon the instability of things, and how very fast the scenes of nature are shifted. Matter is in perpetual flux. Change is always and everywhere at work; it strikes through causes and effects, and leaves nothing fixed and permanent.
The only constant is nature. If it has a purpose, you have found yours.
Very often replying “use function blabla() and such snd so” very detailed instructions while this suggested function just doesn’t exist at all in certain language asked fo
I’ve noticed this a lot too—especially for M. But even though it makes up a function, it sometimes inspires a more optimised idea/method that can be more flexible for future datasets.
But most times it starts to massacre things and disregard prompted parameters or even producing an identical suggestion immediately after being told not to, why not to, and reconfirming original parameters of the query.
Some times punching in the same prompts five times for five iterations produces completely different results, but one may be on the right track and I can code the rest. It helps to set it’s personality first, so it’s sharing ideas it’s seen out there, rather than trying to please.
At the least, it’s a big time saver. Gone are the days where I get a few days spare to work on solving a complex problem through trial and discovery, so it’s an excellent tool for reducing testing time and speeding up the route to an optimised method.
Yeah. Death doesn’t bother me since it’s fate. Knowing when would be handy for time management and something I could leverage. It’d be great to party at my own funeral too.
That’s a tough question in analytics lol
You mean mathematical examples? Or like examples of analytical outcomes? Keeping in mind the more analytics-heavy, the more it involves lots of sources, patterns, variables, and scenarios, but I could provide just a single example.
Edit: Oh, wait. If you’re referring to just averages… In forecasting I prefer, as a minimum, to do weighted averaging. This is where I’ll have a certain time period of cumulated historical data that provides a more stable base, however more weight is applied the more recent (relevant) the data is. This shows a more realistic average than a single snapshot of data that could be an outlier.
But speaking of outliers, I’d prefer to also apply weight to outlying data points that may skew the output, especially if sample size is low. Like 1, 2, 2, 76, 3, 2. That 76 obviously skews the “average”.
Above that, depending on what’s required, I’ll use a proper method. Like if someone wants to know on average how many trucks they need a day, I’ll utilise Poisson instead to get the number of trucks they need each day to meet service requirements, including acceptable queuing, during the day. Like how the popular Erlang formulas utilise Poisson distribution and can kind of handle 90% of BAU S&D loading in day to day operations with a couple clicks.
That’s a basic example, but as data cleanliness increases, those better steps can be taken. Could be like 25 average last Wed vs. 20 weighted average over last month vs. 16 actually needed if optimised correctly.
Oh, and if there’s data on each truck’s mileage, capacity, availability, traffic density in areas over the day, etc…obbioisly it can be even more optimised. Though I’d only go that far if things were consistent/routine. Script it, automate it, set and forget and have the day’s forecast appear in the warehouse each morning.
And yet such simple things are often incredibly hard to get done because of poor data governance or systems.
I didn’t notice it much this year. I think the markets have moved on. It’s been years since rainbow Facebook profile pics and now the right is having surging influence. Companies will jump onto homophobia if that’s cool in the next few years.
