Not saying it wouldn’t still do well, but Tiger King released at the absolute perfect time: March 2020. A time where everyone was bored, maybe scared, and in need of an escape that was simultaneously too ridiculous to be reality while at the same rule too unbelievable to have been made up.

Side note, the guy who made Tiger King made another docuseries cake Chimp Crazy that I find is even better.

In this same vein, I’ve never had a from-scratch brownie that I like better than the box brownies.

Except for they didn’t avoid it. They knew it was happening weeks in advance and didn’t do shit to stop it. Just because franchise owners have a bit of autonomy does NOT mean corporate won’t bring the hammer down if they think something will tarnish the brand.

This might be relevant to your interests

Great watch, hopefully they make more of this type of content!

I’m not sure but I think that comment might be clever satire

I don’t disagree with your overall point, but statistics like that are almost always heavily skewed because of high infant mortality rates

I genuinely thought this was going to end with like “and then shove it up your ass!” or something

K. Nor do industry traditions invalidate my opinion.

News headlines aren’t limited by space on physical paper anymore. If your headline is confusing because of traditions based on outdated limitations it’s not a good headline imo.

The complaints i read on another thread was that it never stops holding your hand, like telling you how to complete puzzles before you even get a chanve to try

For me it’s because I’m not convinced LLMs are really a stepping stone to any actual AI. They don’t have educational applications imo because there isn’t any way they can separate truth from fiction. They don’t understand the words that they output; they’re just predictive text generators on a huge scale. This isn’t something that can change with better tech either; it’s baked in to the very concept of an LLM. And worse, when they are wrong there’s no way to tell without already knowing the answer to the questions you’re asking. They’re literally just monkeys with typewriters. This is an extremely good article about the kinds of problems I’m taking about.

Nah, they’re resistant to that because their whole engine is fueled with hate. They have persecution and victim complexes. Calling them weird actually seems to affect them because their whole thing is parading around as if they’re the party for “average” aka “normal”_(white) Americans.

Language for sounds doesnt work like that though. If I hear a pop song and say “dang that’s a great snare” it isn’t wrong if technically the sound is actually a synthesized snare. When you hear something you can name it without it having to be physically present. Plus plenty of things ring without being a bell.

Screw that green ranger is best anyway

Look, I’m not saying any of them come close to the original, but imo it’s the second best of the series (including all the dogshit jurassic worlds) because it sticks to what made the first one great; small amount of people trapped on an island with dinos. The Lost World was like half that but then it turns in to some weird almost king kong-esq thing. Also i love me some Goldblum but he’s better as a foil imo and Chris Pratt has nowhere near the gravitas as Sam Neil. Like really besides the annoying parents what do you not like about the third one?

Unpopular opinion, I actually really like the third one

What do you mean by flashbangs?

Would love to know what kind of cool personal projects you’ve seen! I’m trying to get my first job in web dev and feel like i have a hard time coming up with stuff to do for my portfolio.

I’m not sure how you think this video is related to the comment I replied to ?
