> At the very least the copy paster should read what the llm says, interpret it, fact check it, then write their own response.

then write their own response using an AI to improve the quality of the response? the implication here is that an AI user is going to do some research when using the AI was their research. to do the "fact check" as you suggest would mean doing actual work, and clearly that's not something the user is up for indicated by use of the AI.

so, to me, your suggestion is fantasy level thinking

There's a very clear and obvious reason they are on the sidewalk. Bikes are not "probably fine" in bike lines themselves though. Bikes are mainly visible to drivers. These things are too small to be in the bike lanes let alone in an actual lane of the road. They'll just be a small speed bump to most cars.

that's not quite the same as asked though is it? knocking a bike/scooter over isn't exactly vandalizing.

It's Chicago, where people regularly throw e-scooters into the river.

> they have inserted themselves and we are to figure it out.

nitpicking a bit, but this reads as they are the robots doing the inserting instead of the companies creating/operating them and not giving a damn about this.

I've run into this before in other industries as well. Sports franchises are notorious where they expect any company doing work for the franchise to then spend some of that money earned back with the franchise in forms of buying advertising, suites, etc to the point that very little money if any is made by the vendor.

90s Geocities sites never looked that clean.

wasn't it Fireworks that sliced the image originally. you'd then be able to open that export into Dreamworks for additional work. I didn't do that kind of design very long. Did Dreamworks get updated to allow the slicing directly bypassing Fireworks?

> Their <snip> stuff is such a mess. Over promising, dressed with marketing slop on top of an under-performing product.

Updated as it was almost close to being a generic comment about AI overall.

See WinUI after Project Reunion announcement 5 years ago, unfortunately fits exactly the same description, and we are way past COVID to use that as an excuse.

> And somehow, they have figured out how to do it too

You say this like it was a mystery to start with. When you own 90+% of the user base, you can create trends with any changes implemented

Can't buy alcohol before noon on Sunday is one of my faves.

Don't want people stumbling into church drunk!

(That being said, even though I think it's a silly rule, it just seems to exist to annoy alcoholics who can't plan ahead. I'm not an alcoholic, and I rarely consume alcohol before noon, so I just laugh at people who whine about this law.)

Was at the airport on a trip with friends with the flight leaving before noon. None of the bars could sell. We are not alcoholics, but we were on vacation. Well, we were trying to start the vacation but had to wait until leaving uptight red state

I live in Massachusetts, the bluest of blue states, and we still have special laws about Alcohol on Sunday. According to Gemini, Logan airport can't start serving until 10 a.m. (Because in Massachusetts, we don't want you getting drunk on the way to your Unitarian or interfaith Sunday service after you get off of your red-eye flight.)
