Seems like a hit that combined “make it look like an accident” with “leave no witnesses”

Looks like McDonald’s changed their sourcing about 10 years ago. Now they use trimmings as you said; previously they used pink slime.

For the record, I never said (nor implied) that it would be fed to food animals. I was thinking more like dog food

McDonald’s gets the very last stage of leftover beef from the carcass. If they don’t buy it, it goes to things like animal feed.

I don’t know how much McDonald’s-grade beef is on a cow, but I’m guessing the real numbers are how much non-McDonald’s beef people are eating, divided by the average weight of cows

Not just owned by, but used by and for the organization. The fact that his wife has one too makes that very suspicious.

In Outlook, they’re keyword-based. Use words like “attached” or “file” and it will automatically prompt you, regardless of the context.

Of course, I’m sure Microsoft is going to cram copilot into it, so that it stops working sometimes

There are many reasons that people would use a particular schedule. Congestion is only one, and not even a big one usually.

A far bigger reason is to be done with it so they can get on with their day, whatever that might be. That way the errand(s) are done and won’t interrupt them or weigh on their minds.

I ran my VIN for a Chevy Bolt through the decoder at vpic.nhtsa.dot.gov (and again through the one at driving-tests.org). It has all sorts of details, including manufacturing location, battery size, and that the headlights are LED. But nowhere on the list is the color.

There may be circumstances where the color is part of it, but it’s absolutely not standard. Try it yourself.

How would I do that when they don’t even ask the color?

Not OP, but most of those cars only had 5 digits on the odometer. It says something about how long the manufacturer expected them to last.

It’s important to remember how far we’ve come on longevity. 100k as the expected lifespan wasn’t common until the 90s. My grandmother once told me that 40k meant it was time to start looking for a new car. This probably would’ve been for cars in the 50s.

Obviously you can take any car to any mileage if you’re willing to sink the time and money into it. Many of these cars are prized by enthusiasts, and became project cars. But your standard utility cars of the 70s and 80s were probably not getting to 100k before needing a lot of repairs.

This is (mostly) a myth, and dispelled by (among many others) Progressive and Allstate. How would they even know? Color is not part of your VIN, and is not something they will usually ask.

However, there is one small kernel of truth - sports cars, which genuinely are more expensive to insure, are far more likely to be red. But they would be the same price in blue, silver, or black.

This is part of a series frequently known as “Microsoft interview” questions. The most famous one is, “Why is a manhole cover round?” They are partially meant to gauge your problem-solving abilities, but more importantly see how you react to a question you did not (and could not) prepare for. They’ve since fallen out of fashion, because it was always a terrible way to gauge roles like software developers.

You’re right, and unfortunately this will be used as an excuse for the next cop convicted of brutally murdering an innocent person to avoid prison.

Little need, but not no need. They need to have a vague path, and something to show for it.

Bitcoin mining doesn’t normally use GPUs. They use dedicated ASICs. Far more effective, and cheaper in every way.

In addition, AI is in the “growth at any cost” phase. There is a TON of investor money to burn, with little need to show future profitability.

The locals call it “cornhenge”

I think he’s trying to say there should be more taboo. That there should be a lot more restrictions than just consent.

I’m glad he’s dead.

You’re getting downvoted, but I experienced much of the same. So much misogyny and, looking back on it, toxic masculinity. I vividly remember the bit where they used tape to illustrate “purity” of not having multiple partners.

This would’ve been the late 90s, US Midwest.

ETA: I wouldn’t say it went quite as far as describing women as “submissive cum dumpsters”, but it definitely implied the women don’t enjoy sex and only did it to satisfy their partner.

Do you understand the code, what it’s doing, and why it’s doing that? If not, then do not use an LLM for it.

Yes, but that’s only an issue if you are interested in those other communities. In this case, the instance is dedicated to anime, so it’s only an issue if you want to browse those other anime communities.

Amazingly, it was also the kind of thing he could’ve vaporwared away, just by (mostly) following policy. All he had to do was claim (from the beginning) that there are ongoing investigations, agency policy is to not release info about those investigations, and then lie that there are going to be arrests really soon.
