just introduced my 9 year old to Futurama,
I fear Bender Bending Rodriguez is her new personality.
I’m glad she only asked me what blackjack is, which makes me worry that she’s already aware of what hookers are
Maybe she’s been getting into Rugby?
I just showed mine king of the hill, now my daughter won’t stop saying “guns don’t kill people, the government does” a la Dale Gribble. Futurama is next.
She’s 40% Bender now

AI is going to replace me?
Is is going to be a disappointment for my parents?
well, yes. But it’s also a disappointment to everyone else.
It already did.
gets sprayed with water gun by locals
in the hot Spanish sun, I’d appreciate that
I think I’ve seen a YouTuber who made an AI robot that could do that.
This will definitely happen. Better not go to Spain.
If you get drunk at 11am, be thankful they are not calling the police
Not a crime to be drunk at any time in Spain. Is it illegal to be drunk or there’s a permitted timeframe to be drunk where you live?
In most public places in the US it is technically illegal to be publicly intoxicated. It’s incredibly rare that anyone would do anything about it unless you’re being a public nuisance or something though.

I’m thinking of moving to Spain. Are locals ok with immigrants?
If you find that they don’t understand you speaking American, just repeat yourself, slower and louder, until they do.
The answer depends on a LOT of things. Most importantly country of origin.
If you’re from Latin America, most people won’t even notice. Since we already have huge amount of Latin American immigrants, so we are used to it.
If you’re from a “white” country, it’s very important that you are respectful to the local culture and try to genuinely learn Spanish. This is mostly a problem with tourists instead of immigrants, but most Spaniards hate with passion when foreigners complain about things not being in English/German/french/whatever.
If you’re from a “black” country, it depends on where you move to. In some parts of Spain you’ll inevitably face a lot of racism. In others, you’ll find groups of people that will try to protect you. But as always, there’s always at least some racists.
And of course, don’t do crime. But that goes for locals too.
And I think this is a global advice. But people will instantly judge if you are lazy or hard-working. If you help your local community without asking much in return, people will probably talk about how hard working you are, and even racists will probably say “for being for country X, he’s a nice guy”.

Ever drink a 60 of rum, get fired and divorced the same day?
What’s a 60
My guess is 60 oz., which doesn’t make a lot of sense because even in the US that is sold as 1.75 L
Maybe he drank it in 60 seconds?
“Hey man, any of that rum left?”
“Nope”
“What happened to it?”
Could be Canadian, we call it a 60 here
60 grams? 60 milliliters? 60 sizes of banana?
Which Al? Bundy? Yankovich?

OK Google, handle this social interaction as if I was inebriated.
Google: Ok I overshared all your deepest secrets to everyone and then threwup. I think everyone hates you now
Another successful Saturday night in my book!

in spain? because anywhere else it would make it?
I think the point is that alcohol tends to wreck you harder at higher temperatures and Spain is (at least in Europe) known for its ungodly heat.
But the beers in Spain are tiny.
I don’t know. Never have been to Spain. But Spanish beer is sold in small 0,33 Liter bottles here. Which my German brain doesn’t register as beer sometimes. It’s confusing. I am confused. And tired. Going to sleep. Good night.
Good morning!
It’s because bigger beers get warm before you can drink them. We prefer to order 6 tiny cold beers one by one than single large beer that will be warm by the time you drink half of it.
You are not drinking it properly then. Ask a German for an advice.
You can have beer in a bigger format in Spain, and if you go to a place to drink beer you would order something from a ‘tercio’ (330ml bottle) to a ‘jarra’ (usually 500ml, some places have 1-1.5l mugs). The tiny beer glasses (caña, ~200ml) have another purposes, for example if the place serve good ‘tapas’, a complimentary small dish served with your drink, since they have the same size whatever you order you get more food with smaller beers; or if you aren’t staying at the place and just want, or need, a quick refreshment before going somewhere else.
I actually like this. Never saw it that way. I will do it the Spanish way the next time my ass gets fried at 35 degrees plus.
Other common way is to order a bucket of ice and beer. You get a bunch of 0.25-0.20l bottles in a bucket.
People would give you weird looks in other places.
Ai will never grow into a Sr. Software Developer they will just code worse than the worst developer at your company. Unless they magically learn how to design good architecture, they won’t replace people in the long term. They are currently just creating more work overall by giving people the ability to create quick and dirty bad code. I inherited a tool vibe coded by a Jr. that will take me twice as long to fix it as it did to for them to make it. I am trying to convince my boss to let me throw it away and start fresh because it will save time but it is a hard sell.
Good luck putting AI in charge of project management, creating utterly useless teams meetings that are guaranteed to maximize the productivity wasted is a finely homed skill
That’s only because you can’t find a decent breakfast, might as well get shit-faced.
Shit-faced from six beers?
Is that the River Monsters dude? If so good luck replacing his crazy ass.
Can AI do balconing?
