you sometimes see pictures of cats who like to be walked on leashes. let me assure you: this isn't how most cats react. reality:

in Norwegian, we call these "refleks" but what is the English word?

tried to draw again tonight, with zero warm-up or preparation. it's about as far as i got in terms of developing my drawing skills before i lost patience.

(bill for rent arrives) ugh, you again? i thought i paid you last month! 😞

demonstrating the combustion triangle by lifting your lab coat, letting one rip in a test tube and setting it ablaze with a sparkling cake candle. 🎉

trying out vegan substitutes for ground meat at the moment. not so much for ideological reasons, but because they sell a soy product at the local supermarket that costs about the same as the cheapest meat option, but they say you should eat less red meat. doesn't taste quite like meat, but it tastes all right, and has plenty of protein, so...

a Google search offers surprisingly few obvious options for a consumer to upload their photos to have them auto-tagged or auto-categorised. cloud storage? plenty of that. APIs for AI? plenty of that too. out-of-the-box solutions for real-world problems? not so much. my feeling is that it's due to scalability issues. handling billions of images on behalf of millions of customers would be a massive undertaking.

why do people do this thing where they answer a different question than the one you asked instead of just saying that they don't know
