Wait, if you can (or anyone else chipping in), please elaborate on something you’ve written.

When you say

That means they can engineer a solution to any problem that has already been solved millions of times already.

Hasn’t Google already made advances through its Alpha Geometry AI?? Admittedly, that’s a geometry setting which may be easier to code than other parts of Math and there isn’t yet a clear indication AI will ever be able to reach a certain level of creativity that the human mind has, but at the same time it might get there by sheer volume of attempts.

Isn’t this still engineering a solution? Sometimes even researchers reach new results by having a machine verify many cases (see the proof of the Four Color Theorem). It’s true that in the Four Color Theorem researchers narrowed down the cases to try, but maybe a similar narrowing could be done by an AI (sooner or later)?

I don’t know what I’m talking about, so I should shut up, but I’m hoping someone more knowledgeable will correct me, since I’m curious about this

Well, “Snakes in pants” doesn’t have the same ring to it, but it’s now more real than the movie!

If you only need to look for slang expressions, that is…

You’re certainly right about observing this incongruity. It’s probably one statement that feels so obviously correct that people upvote it without even bothering to read the article.

What is the sound of one banana clapping?

Zatoichi approves.

Whoa dude!

PS This is a great shower thought!!!

Is it still being implemented? This awesome article is from 2022.

I just tried to look for newer hits, but I keep getting articles from 2022 (though several from Nature)

Wow, this is really how it happened?!? Unbelievable. Well done Spez, all your creativity shines every day…

In a similar fashion, you can wonder about killing opponents in the localized Finnish version of Mortal Kombat

I’m glad I wasn’t the only one to see that!

This is tragic.

While the Wikipedia page lists food poisonings from sea turtles as rare, it still feels like a Russian Roulette kind of meal.

Would you eat something knowing that there is a nonzero chance it might kill you (as in really off you, not just give you a bad night at the bathroom)?

I suppose the answer is a lot of people would, since the article itself mentioned another recent poisoning.

It reminds me of the blowfish which is also lethally poisonous if not handled by someone who’s certified to do so.

I suppose everything in life has a risk and I’ve done my share of reckless things, but rolling the dice on food never appealed to me.

Well, I would like to think that this will get some more Redditors to become Lemmings, but I don’t have high hopes. Unfortunately, there hasn’t been a significant migration during the APIcalypse, so I don’t see that happening now.

Thanks! I actually misread the last line by OP (sorry, I read it before going to bed!).

The comparison makes sense now

I don’t mean to be argumentative, but I want to genuinely understand your comparison: Scottish English and American English are the exact same language (sure there are differences that can be assimilated to regionalisms), but Spanish and Portuguese are two different languages (they come from the same root ane grammar is similar, but not the same, the vocabulary is generally different (though similar sounding)).

When you compare Scottish English and American English, I tend to see a relationship more similar to Brazilian Portuguese and Portuguese from Portugal.

Cheers, mate!

Beef with chicken for the man with the wok hat at table two, please!

I thought about going with “Royale with chicken” as opposed to “Royale of chicken”, but I went with the second because I thought that the Royale is already intended to be a quarter pounder of beef and it might have seemed beef+chicken instead of a quarter pounder of chicken 😁

Check out the big brain on Brett! That’s right, motherf***er!

But how many royals of chicken are they?

(To be read in Samuel L’s voice)

Edit: fixed grammar

True, lots of places (but I suppose maybe not everywhere) have really wide roads with tons of lanes so it’s easy to drive around with SUV’s, but this is generally not true in Europe where, even in large cities, often roads/lanes are narrower, making SUV’s unwieldy for those driving around them.

Then there’s the pollution aspect which I can’t address, but I imagine SUV’s pollute more on average than other cars (and probably Europe is currently being a bit more stingy on allowing this)

That’s a lot of nuts!
