Not really. The second movie does link into it more than the first but they fill things in on the show if you haven’t seen the movie.

Except this is specifically about AI in Excel, not coding—it’s a benchmark for editing spreadsheets.

The American Revolution also had no theory of victory under this definition, because they didn’t aim to conquer England.

Hi Canadian friends! Want to help prevent what’s happening to science south of our border from happening here??
Hope the answer is YES…
Assuming it is, it took me about 2 mins to fill out and send this pre written letter #ArmchairActivism #AcademicSky 🇨🇦 🧪

In Canada, proposed cuts of 15% across the federal government would have a dramatic effect on already globally decimated research & science.

Join Canada's research & science community and tell PM Mark Carney to preserve the funding promised in 2024.

I mean as crackpot as this is I also feel the need to point out that these guys don’t know much about organ transplants. They don’t make you immortal! The immunosuppressants have side effects and you can’t just keep transplanting.

“.. Quite a hot mic moment on CCTV in Beijing today as Putin and Xi, both 72 years old, are caught casually talking about living to 150 and maybe forever thanks to organ transplants. (As picked up by Bloomberg.)”

For the first time in my life I am being impeded in my work because the org chart is down. Not because a reorganization is underway but because the host is not connecting. Sigh.

Yeah, almost all of the comments here are “that isn’t real writing” which is true! But it’s not clear to me that the person thought that it was. This sounds more like a form of solo roleplaying?

We absolutely do not need to “remove the power” from this word. Naziism is evil.

Gutfeld: “We need to learn from the blacks. The way they were able to remove the power from the n-word word by using it. So from now on it’s: What up, my Nazi? Hey, what up, my Nazi? Hey, what's hanging, my Nazi?”

Kennedy: “Nazi, please!”

Gutfeld: “Thank God you did a hard ‘i’ there.”
