A good friend of mine had an MRI, but the insurance wouldn't pay for a doctor to process/analyze it. First of all I didn't know you could even do that, and second of all do I reach any neurologists or otherwise the medical kind of brain doctor that would be willing to take a pro-bono look at an MRI?

edit: we have figured something out! thank you all so much for your offers and for spreading the word, it means a lot that people are willing to help out a friend in need like this, consider my heart warmed <3

I appreciate how Google doesn't list any discernible benefit for keeping my accounts linked

A friend of mine told me his coworkers now have a new solution for when they don't want to do their own sums on a bit of engineering:

They use Chat GPT. They input the data, and ask it to calculate the answer. And they trust it every time.

This is a company that is involved in thousands of projects. They are using a chat model to calculate real sums used in construction.

The future is terrifying.

^^ using commercial LLMs is unethical and I judge you harshly if you do, not sorry.

@torvalds I believe that tree is in a detached state.

I'm going to declare today's almost-vegan meat pastry a success! The only non-vegan ingredient is some cheese

Sauce is made out of vegetable stock/broth cubes immersion-mixed with flour and some peas to thicken, with generous amounts of thyme, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, slight amount of turmeric, coriander, celery, black/white pepper, and a bit of salt. Also a glob of sharp mustard mixed in, as well as a few whole peas.

The remainder of the filling is spinach and cheap minced meat substitute from Lidl, the crumb stuff. Wrapped in fresh vegan pastry dough with some grated cheese added.

Meat substitute and spinach are fried and later added to the sauce and boiled for a bit longer.

Sometimes a like instead of a boost means, ah yes thank you for poisoning my brain but I shan't be encouraging the poisoning of brains of others.

The kids were guessing the ingredients of my stroganoff sauce.

Thinking about salt, I gave them a hint: "It's very small, you can't see it, but it's present in almost all food."

Said the 7yo: "Microplastics!"

no i don't think billionaires should donate their wealth. i think it should be taken from them. the details of how that gets done aren't particularly important to me either.

Forget about the pomodoro technique, I'm now using the LP technique. The timing matches, and it forces me out of my chair to flip the record or put a new one on. And I've got 10 records to go through from our visit to Göteborg anyway.
