The main reason I’m still posting and reading on Reddit is that I belong to a lot of small subreddits that haven’t had any reason to migrate elsewhere. You can dislike what Reddit leadership is doing, but lots of people belonging to small subreddits haven’t been impacted as much.
This question had me trying to get ChatGPT to code a simple game.
My prompt was “Create a Tetris game using Java Swing”. ChatGPT provided code. I copied the code into my IDE and found an entire missing class.
ChatGPT is basically a natural language search engine. If what it finds is wrong, its code will be wrong.
If you can’t code, what are you going to do when a ChatGPTgenerated game fails a test?
Even a simple video game requires hundreds of hours of play testing.
I was speaking from personal experience in the states I mentioned, as well as everyone else responding to your post.
You can separate native recipes from recipes brought later by other cultures, but the only difference is native recipes were brought by the original settlers.
Burritos are an interesting example. In Mexican rural areas, burritos were plain, as the people didn’t historically have access to spices. When the burrito was originally brought to Texas, the cooks added spices. Now, you can find burritos almost anywhere in the world, each city making them with their own flavor. Just like hot dogs and pizza.
You could have a month (or quarter year) featuring food from the different states. Louisiana is known for boiled crabs and crawfish, as well as Cajun and creole cooking. Maryland is known for crab cakes. Utah is known for gelatin salads. Nebraska (Omaha) is known for its steaks. North Carolina is known for two distinct types of barbecue sauce.
It depends on where you live, but a lot of large US cities have their own fueling stations. That way, the city can buy fuel by the tanker load and avoid gas taxes.
I’ve ridden many buses and trains. I’ve seen plenty of YouTube videos where people are attacked on buses. I’ve seen plenty of light rail trains where the homeless ride around the entire day.
Ride out to the suburbs, burgle a house, and steal a car to bring the loot back actually happened in Baltimore, Maryland, USA when they extended the red line light rail to Hunt Valley. The Hunt Valley Mall died and was torn down a few years later.
So, a criminal can sign up, get on an on-demand bus, rob people, and get off. I wonder what safety features they have in the UK because, in the US, criminals would love this service. Ride out to the suburbs, burgle a house, and steal a car to bring the loot back. Rinse and repeat.
I listen to Ranting Monkey. He’s a political and news commentator that leans conservative. He posts 2 hour live streams five or more days a week. His channel has over 10k subscribers but gets a few thousand views on his live streams.
