You forgot #3, do something else crazy to try and distract from this failure. But #2 is definitely in the cards as well.
We’ve always had two major parties from the very beginning. But Washington was right. Perhaps the way things were set up was the problem. If only we had ways to change how the government worked and the rules weren’t set in stone.
/s, because that’s also what some of the Founders wanted to see happen. If anything that’s what fell, the adaptability of the system to changing times.
Humans are terrible. The human eyes and brain are good at detecting certain things though that allow a reaction where computer vision, especially only using one method of detection, fails often. There are times when an automated system will prevent a problem before a human could even see it. So far neither is the clear winner, human driving just has a legacy that automation has to beat by a great length and not just be good enough.
On the topic of human drivers, I think most on the road drive reactively and not based on prediction and anticipation. Given the speed and possible detection methods, a well designed automated system should be excelling at this. It costs more and it more complex to design such a thing, so we’re getting the bare bones of the best minimum tech can give us right now, which again is not a replacement for all cases.
If there were stats on emoticon usage, this one has to have skyrocketed straight up.
I had heard over the years that it wasn’t that bad of an EV. Sounds a lot like the story of Saturn and GM. Kill a car that’s actually popular because someone on the board wants to go a different direction.
That would be a crime. I know, ® beats any consequences of doing illegal things.
My kids are very literate. :D Maybe because it’s such a drawn out word it stood out to him and he mimicked it. I don’t know.
It’s possible he’d rattle off not the names, but parts of lyric, if he’s been exposed to them. When he was very young my son would request “boulevard” when we got into the car for a trip, since we’d regularly listen to Green Day.
Wow, that must be a very secure password to be so long. :P
Weird. Just like passwords, all I saw for your ssn is asterisks. Must be a Fediverse security feature.
I normally suggest using the Calvin version of this meme to avoid promoting him in any way, but he is part of the discussion topic here.
And the sides. It’s typical.
Sure, but OP is talking about fingers as representation, not markings. Your point is exactly why they did it in writing.
I see what you’re saying, using one hand for the entire sequence. XI is still a pain. The real problem is that there is no mention of doing this in any Roman text. A bit of an omission, or was it a state secret?
IV and IX don’t make sense when it could be done more intuitively by IIII and VIIII.
Evil people feed off of more than food, water, and air.
Clowns everywhere, as far as the eye can see!
