He's in a better place now
AI Overview Learn more The saying "In heaven there are no hillbilly elegies" is a reference to J.D. Vance's memoir, "Hillbilly Elegy," which details the struggles of his family and community in Appalachia. The phrase implies that in the afterlife, there are no need for mournful reflections or songs about the hardships faced by poor white communities, suggesting a place of equality and absence of earthly sorrow.

INSECT DESTROYER GUN (1899)
Patent Application drawing of A.C. Richardson's Insect Destroyer (1899). It shows a boxlike cart on two wheels with two, wheelbarrow-esque handles. Two hoses emerge from between the handles and have what appear to be metal cones that are placed against the ground. It appears to be intended as farm equipment, possibly as a sort of insect vacuum cleaner for crops?

It was definitely a huge part of early campaigns and sloganeering. In the midst of the Great Depression and the wake of WWI (and post-war sanctions), they promised things like "Work and Bread." Nazi grievances against Jews etc. also often accused them of leaching off the hardworking Germans.

Get his ass, Miriam
A Goodreads review: Miriam T 240 reviews · 169 followers Follow January 22, 2024 Some of these essays were really interesting to me, particularly around academia and technology. But in general I think Deresiewicz is a crotchety older white man (he’d hateeee that I called him a ‘white man,’ literally..he talks about how much he hates that phrase) who is sort of self-absorbed and egotistical. There were some essays I straight up skipped because they were either boring or had an annoying tone. So I think this one is a hit or miss.

“I have the impression that sometimes he was really very good and people were incredibly happy and surprised and inspired... And then there were also moments where he was somehow not so good, maybe more superficial.”

I somehow doubt an inconsistent AI was the issue here.
While data on the installation will be presented next week, feedback from more than 230 users suggested two-thirds of them had found it to be a “spiritual experience”, said Schmid. “So we can say they had a religiously positive moment with this AI Jesus. For me, that was surprising.” Others were more negative, with some telling the church they found it impossible to talk to a machine. One local reporter who tried out the device described the answers as, at times, “trite, repetitive and exuding a wisdom reminiscent of calendar cliches”. The feedback suggested there had been a wide disparity in the avatar’s answers, said Schmid. “I have the impression that sometimes he was really very good and people were incredibly happy and surprised and inspired,” he said. “And then there were also moments where he was somehow not so good, maybe more superficial.”
