@Strega – Too many people are afraid to live on their own for even a short period of time. I highly recommend it.

Maybe just don’t start writing a novel about what can happen to Jack when he spends too much time at work and not enough time playing. 🙂

For those with terminal illnesses, assisted dying is a powerful quality of life option. For most, just knowing that they have the legal option in place in case they want or need to avail of it at some future point, immediately improves their quality of life. It also allows their love ones, who would assist them, the peace of mind knowing they…[Read more]

How a young Dutch woman’s life began when she was allowed to die.

I don’t think that assisted dying on the grounds of depression should be legal, because depression is always in theory reversible.  On the other hand, it took being genuinely offered to die for this lady to want to live again.  It’s a difficult one.

@Strega I’m sorry to hear about your divorce. Acreage in the woods  sounds lovely though. Glad to hear you’re feeling positive about the future in 2025!

Thanks Strega, hope you are warm and cozy where you are. I was almost going to fly to Atlanta today but skipped it this Christmas. Weather is better here!

Hey Reg!  Thank you!  Great year of Sunday School 🙂

Have a great week everyone and a very Happy Christmas!

After hearing Trump today on the spending deal, I have decided to stop listening to him and to Vance when he takes over. Who voted for Elon Musk, btw?

When i was a kid and the topic of original sin was in play i was just amazed anyone would buy into that nonsense. Even JP with his ridiculous casuistry would not stoop so low.

But i wonder if an extension of that thinking is not in play in the Christian mantra, ‘Who Killed Christ? The Jews killed Christ!’ And today all of those putative sins of…[Read more]

I want to know what the thinker thinks.

Like Peter Griffin on ecstacy:  “how are you doing that?”

Pope i just had a conversation will Meta that lasted an hour and a half. I was thinking about the Turk’s slaughtering Armenians and began by asking for some of the history and what the Turkish apologists said. We ended up discussing all kinds of shit.

It has evolved so insanely fast. I am gobsmacked. First off as i indicated in a prior missive…[Read more]

Dang, can’t believe I didn’t think of that.

I always tell people to ask it questions in a way that you’d try to ask human experts. What’s been written on the net by humans is what LLCs draw from to formulate answers. (But sometimes it’s inaccurate, like humans can be… but it listens to your…[Read more]

@Unapologetic – get it from here.

Unapologetic i suggest you utilize any LLM like Chat gpt or meta to find answers readily to such questions.

Most personality tests are bunk. Whenever I am an employer I always meet potential staff face to face. Using AI (non human) is a waste of time. Why employ someone you never met?

But the personality trait pages are dumb. Worse than the Myers Brigg test which is Woo.

I can understand that employers want certain personality traits and qualities, like professionalism, initiative, communication skills, agreeableness, conscientiousness.  But I don’t see how AI can dig those out.
