My mom these days sees captcha on a website and just closes said website. If it’s something unavoidable, she calls me.

I am not worried about it. But I was the kid that needed discipline in life.

My kids know their limits. I parent by not being an authority figure but my being a good role model. Any time my kids are grounded. We talk a lot about why and what they could have done to avoid being grounded. Hell a couple of times my kids have argued their way out of being grounded by making me see that my punishment was more than what was required.

That being said, there is no shame in admitting when you’ve fucked up parenting and taking steps to correct it.

I was vindictive to my parents at around 12. When my parents took compute power cable because I was playing 20 hours a day. I got so mad and my AOL toxic fucking circle encouraged that behaviour. I took fuses for the entire house. That’s when I was sent to pre-army school. Hell I had accepted my parents were villains but 3 years in the boot camp like school and a couple of years of therapy made me realise, fault lied with me and not the world.

Could they have done more early to make sure situation didn’t go so far I hid house fuse? Maybe. But they were trying. I would pretend to fall asleep, just till my parents would go to bed. I’d get up, cover the gaps in the door with blankets, and went out of my way to avoid being detected. I just fell into the toxic internet culture before my parents even knew the dangers of being online and echo chambers and all.

Had they not intervened, I would have stepped into adulthood with the toxicity.

I’m not saying every kid deserves such intervention. But comment OP taking batteries reminded me of me taking the fuse. The ‘if I lose we all lose’ narcissistic behaviour I had. It wouldn’t have been corrected without a strong intervention.

P.S. My dad had to do a year therapy of his own, because he felt so guilt of sending me away.

Step 3 is cha cha. Because 1 2 cha cha cha

Yeah my country has these pre army training camps, basically schools but they drill discipline into your head, they’re popular if you are expected to join army. But I’d send my kid just to get the spoiled shut out of him.

LLM is a hell of a drug my friend.

I see, my apologies then

How do some people despite being wrong are happy to correct others? And they have up votes? Wtf…

I actually know a schoolfriend that thought pissing was territory marking and actually pissed himself on purpose a couple of times in school. Few years ago I saw he was advertising his OF of pissing on his wife. Soo… Yeah I have no idea how did he even find a wife that wanted to be pissed on?

Better yet, polio.

Right, clearly so was the risk of a quick buck worth his life? Should be the question.

Unfortunately no.

Me that was me.

It probably is fucked up. But if you know the consequences of getting caught, why would you risk it? If freedom to do drugs is important either be in a jurisdiction that is lenient.

I mean you can try to change the laws and try to protest and get political change, but that wouldn’t leave you much off in Singapore’s authoritarian air.

So the question is, was the hit of recreational drug that important to take the risk?

I’m not saying what or what shouldn’t be, I’m just saying knowing you know what IS, why would you? It’s like you know lava is hot, but you step in it anyway because it should be a morally a volcanic rock.

My grown ass colleague, 26 years old, thought store bought beef is made from industrial process from chemicals and only local butcher shops cut animals. I only learned that after working 4 years with him when we got to really talking about why I’m vegan. He thought since supermarket meat is from chemicals, my point of being vegan was moot.

So I won’t be surprised there are guys out there that don’t know how fruit is made.

The line that separates courage and stupidity is always very thin, be it warfare or… Checks notes… TRAVEL

Yes but in UK GDPR protects the footage and information it captures from being sold. Your parking lot can only use it to fine for parking, if government wants it, “in theory” they need a Warrent.

Imposible

You’re wrong. They’re all soups. /s

Bigger problem is AI writes so much code and adds so many features that are jank, if the commits are accepted the whole project risks being like a jank. I doubt anthropic can claim open source project is their work.
