I work in sustainability for a big company. Please miss me with all your questions about why we don't have a community garden or EV chargers at work.
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

KISS and They Might Be Giants (and, by extension, their biggest fans) are superficially different and metaphysically the same.

"The volleyball scene is homoerotic."
"That's ridiculous. They're hunks. It's clearly targeted at women."
"If that was supposed to be appealing to heterosexual women, they'd look like Alan Alda and Robert Redford."

A lot of people are going to use this to further their existing views about AI but the real takeaway here is that you should watch less TV.
Out of curiosity I decided to try and run the numbers on how much Netflix you can watch for the energy cost of a ChatGPT prompt
As far as I can tell it's between 5.1 and 10.2 seconds, depending on which end of the 2019 IEA Netflix energy usage estimate you use

John Ratzenberger (best known for playing Cliff Clavin on Cheers) invented a biodegradable alternative to Styrofoam peanuts in the late 80s, sold his innovation to a big packaging company, and kept his day job. It is, fittingly, the most Cliff Clavin thing anyone has ever done.

The surest sign that Frank Sinatra was a made man is that he's been dead for almost 30 years and you still can't find anyone willing to talk shit about him on the record.

I love when they have British celebrities on Bakeoff. Some rando named, like, Eleanor Jones is 'can't walk down the street' famous for her portrayal of Priya on a long-running soap opera called "Marylebone" or something, and nobody who isn't from the island has ever heard of her.
