If only us Texans had a phrase for this sort of thing. Something about people cosplaying as badasses when they're really soft handed little snowflakes. Something that really FEELS like Texas, you know. Maybe a metaphor involving the wearing of a hat while lacking ownership of actual cattle. If only.

I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
