More than anything else classism is that if you lose your company half a million you get fired, but if Zuck loses Meta 77 billion he gets paid $28 million.
Meritocracy doesn't fail due to DEI, if fails becaues we can't ever let a rich nimrod suffer consequences for any level of screwup.

IQ tests make me think of two things. one is the achewood comic where ray just pays 75 dollars to skip the word jumble and re-up his membership writing THANKS in the answer slot
the second is the columbo episode where he goes to the mensa house, catches the guy, who immediately tries to score him

IQ is a measure of how good you are at IQ tests, which is something informed by how familiar you are with taking academic tests (& thus the quality of your school, which is in part determined by your parents' wealth, etc). there's nothing in particular that makes them a good test of intelligence
I saw this ad on the train and I’m curious how yall feel about it… I’m very much in the center, but slightly more towards than against…

When I was 11 I saw the sausages factory skit from kids in the hall and thought the goop they slather on the sausages before wet slurping them up nasty style was maple syrup so I grew up thinking the phallic imagery was the joke but syrup on sausages was "canadian style"
Singing to myself as I skip to work: 🎶 Daddy would you like some sausage? Daddy would you like some sausages? 🎶

I hope that the cyberpunk 2077 sequel adds more depth to the restaurant/food mechanic, where when you go to a restaurant and order something from the menu, instead of it going in your inventory, you see your player character sit down and eat, and they go “hoho” like Kiryu in Yakuza

my favorite restaurant closed down. there was a second Jamaican restaurant that was 2% more annoying to get to w/r/t turns and such. i'd be happy to go there instead and make it my favorite restaurant but it's a ghost kitchen. The door has instructions for door dash drivers and you cannot go inside
we are approaching a future where it will be impossible to order from a restaurant in person

An under-appreciated part of what makes AI appealing to people in power is its value as a responsibility-laundering device.
It's much easier to shrug and say "it wasn't my fault" when your machine-learning-powered car or drone or insurance adjuster kills someone compared to when a person does it.

People will pop up and say that as long as any human ever makes a mistake, robo-taxis cannot be held to a higher standard than humans. This ignores the fact that you cannot hold a robot accountable for destruction it causes and the American government is unwilling to punish careless corporations.

I've been getting back into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series after many years, and the most relatable part is how everyday objects like doors and elevators have been imbued with artificial intelligence and it just makes them obnoxious and frustrating to use and everyone hates it.

I know there's ways around this. I could just copy and paste into a text document and print from there. but I think firefox's print options should include "please don't include pictures" just on the off chance that it wants to waste all my color ink on 3 pictures of the cornbread box i already own
