realitista@lemmus.orgto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK There's a campaign to replace the distorted Mercator world map with the fairer Equal-Earth projectionEnglish5·9 days agoWhich line of work is that? You just gonna leave us hanging?
The times I’ve done it were for:
- One guy who had his phone in his steering wheel and was playing some sort of online gambling the whole drive and didn’t look directly at the road once
- One guy who was driving around on a spare tire (doughnut) on the highway at speeds way above those it said on the tire.
I mean I can look the other way on just about anything (I’ve given 5* to a lot of questionable driving decisions and shitty cars) but when you are putting my life at risk, that’s where I draw the line.
Yeah this is why I almost always give 5* reviews to any sort of thing that’s traced back to a worker unless I really feel like they need to be reprimanded for something, and how badly they should be reprimanded is how many stars I take off. This is only for the 1% who really need a talking to.
When it comes to product reviews on Amazon for example, or business reviews, I feel a lot more free to give my real opinion to help the next person.

Your brain sort of morphs itself to make it seem normal after a while. It’s very strange but true.
I personally went for only 2 zones, one which was mainly the strength to use a computer rather than read a book up close (though I can do that in a pinch, but I keep stronger glasses for reading books), and the other for distance. This feels very natural to me now, I can just see what I need to see but it doesn’t feel weird. I would never go for bifocals.

I’d like it to be BBAC but as I get older for health purposes it’s more like DDDA

Stuff like take these 10 pages of handwritten tables and ocr them and make a .csv out of them. It’s inventing a whole process to do that. Same with some examples of it programming entire games. You need some procedural thinking to do those things.

I’m sure they calculated that the reduction in destruction was worth a try. They have levers to pull if it doesn’t, but it will just create a lot of destruction for all sides.
Depends how good the robots get.
