Between the title of the show and one of the judges being a guy called Mario Narwhal I gotta ask, are coiners trying to reclaim the word "whale", as in a cash cow gambler/lifestyle goods consumer?
I have a Kubernetes cluster running my AI agents for me so I don't have to learn how to set up AI agents. The AI agents are running my Kubernetes cluster so that I don't have to learn Kubernetes either. I'm paid $250k a year to lie to myself and others that I'm making a positive contribution to society. I don't even know what OS I'm running and at this point I'm afraid to ask.
They quickly accelerated their way out.
Tech support workers who may or may not speak English as a second language or with a strong accent can sometimes be of actual help and sometimes not, much like people with possibly more familiar accents can. A call center AI has never been anywhere close to solving a problem I've had.
You're no less fucked but instead of a human being getting underpaid for the trouble, a shitty tech corporation is overpaid.
It's fair enough to criticize that, but the curtains are blue meme makes a really bad argument. It would be one thing if the author said "the curtains are blue because the detective is colorblind and couldn't see the bloodstains on the green curtains" or "the curtains are blue to represent Virgin Mary". Ha ha the teacher was wrong, what a fool, blind leading the blind.
The meme actually implies that authors typically add utterly superfluous sentences in their stories and that it's wrong to try and interpret them as if they're connected to the rest of the story.
The thing about colors is they're so easy and efficient as symbols we don't even consider them as deeper elements of storytelling. The connotations of the colors black and red are so pervasive and intuitive to an English speaker it's hard to even imagine a version of My Immortal that doesn't use them to convey the emo pop mall goffik sense of aethetics associated with the fic.
Nobody living in modern anglophone society, not even someone pretending to write like a concussed 12-year old, would accidentally dress their depressed vampire goth protagonist in yellow, beige and pink thinking those colors usually represent those character traits.
A tool uses an LLM, the LLM uses a tool. What a beautiful ouroboros.
