The Shen Yun dance troupe is a front for the same cult that publishes The Epoch Times. Don't give them your money.
@ambulocetus According to Wikipedia, "A 2019 report by NBC News showed [the Epoch Times] to be the second-largest funder of pro-Trump Facebook advertising after the Trump campaign itself."
@alicemcalicepants Which book was that? (Your timeline shows the order in which things were originally posted, not when you boosted them, so I can't identify the "previous boost".)

@cheribaker I've been doing the same with considerable success. I do have a scale, and weigh every day; there is certainly some variability, but the progress graph works for me.
Sketch of a TTRPG mechanic. TLDR: instead of dice, you have a pool of tokens that you spend to succeed.

gonna make a blazing fast, fearless concurrency programming language aimed at rockstar startup coders, for doing rapid prototyping while being deployed to be rock solid production.
First, let's start with its type system. The Boolean literals in this language are Yes or MaybeLater

not enough people know that you can tell everyaction (basically the clearinghouse for dem voter data) to put your email address in their blocklist, thereby greatly reducing the amount of political email you get. maybe even stopping it completely.
be warned that you may stop getting the emails you want from your favorite politicians/candidates as well.
@htdrake checking the internal temperature of the balsamic chicken breasts: "I dunno. We can eat it. If we die, we die."
@nyrath Avatar, The Core, or jalapeño?
I'm making a Kessel run. Anybody need anything?

@cheribaker @htdrake holds that people shouldn't be allowed to use commas until they've mastered the period.
Me, first thing in the morning: So, if you were going to open a fantasy bookstore, you could call it Brick & Mordor.
@htdrake, without missing a beat: But nobody would want to go there! You don't just walk into Mordor.

All this time later, and I only just now noticed that when you switch the first and last letters of "Morn" who sat at the end of Quark's bar on DS9, you get "Norm" who sat at the end of the bar on Cheers.
The later into the evening it gets, the more brilliant my half-baked game ideas seem.

My favorite aspect of the Squamish development project has been all the racist howling from white boomers outraged that "indigenous" doesn't actually mean magical primitive park ranger. Every time they encounter indigenous urbanism, much less indigenous futurism or indigenous atheism they shake with entitled rage. The crimes of the hippies will take generations to undo, but at least they'll suffer a little.
@Gina A figure of speech meaning "you may not get exactly the same results". Car manufacturers use it as a disclaimer when publishing fuel efficiency numbers.
In general, people who come from statistics prefer R. People who come from computer science tend to prefer Python.

Europe once again leads the way by passing meaningful AI regulation. Banned unacceptable-risk uses of AI include facial recognition, social scoring, and emotion recognition at schools and workplaces. #AI https://therecord.media/eu-parliament-passes-ai-act-regulation?utm_source=werd.io&utm_campaign=mastodon&utm_channel=mastodon
