  • And there’s a million and one different reasons why the context behind a piece causes someone to dislike it even if they initially liked it. It works the other way too, if you like something and you find out it had a cool story behind it, lots of people will like it even more.

    “I fish the least digested looking bits of corn from the shit pile” is just not a good story lol






  • What an odd thing to say. People have died with far less. Bumping into the plates and causing her to list at the hardest portion of the lift (both for her and for the spotters to help) could easily result in serious injury or death.

    She had almost 740 pounds on her back. Go to a gym. Load that much weight onto a bar. Try to roll it around on the floor a little.

    Now suppose this sudden unexpected jolt from the interference causes a muscle tear. Again, it’s happened to people lifting far less. Assuming the saboteur decides to help, now every single member of the team of five spotters would suddenly need to catch 150lbs in their outstretched arms.

    Yes, he absolutely did risk her life, to say nothing of the risk posed to her health and her career









  • Just took a quick look at your comment history because this one gave me deja vu.

    I don’t think you’re a bot or anything, but I’m intrigued. Genuinely, what’s your motivation? If you’re so satisfied and confident with AI why not just go and enjoy the many fulfilling hobbies and the rewarding technical job that you brag about? If I had invested in google early on like you claim this situation is identical to, I’d be super chilled out about it instead of preemptively gloating and proclaiming that I was “obviously correct”.

    It’s been a remarkable thing to be threatened, for years now, to be “left behind” by people who never seem to be able to leave. Really, why not just go? What’s holding you back? Is your super useful weather app not raking in enough money? Can’t you easily make like ten apps a day? Nobody’s ever been able to explain to me where all this supposed “obvious” usefulness is actually being applied. You all just appear to be totally stuck in the mud
