fried rice, while delicious in theory, has never existed and cannot be made by human beings. it requires rice to be pre-made and refrigerated in advance and we as humans lack the capacity to plan that far ahead. in the future, computers may be able to help us do this

I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

Pliny the Younger apparently thought sports were very stupid but it's funny that it's for the exact reason laid out in Seinfeld s6e12 ("The Label Maker")
![[6] L To Calvisius.
Thave been spending all my time here among my tablets and books as quietly as I could wish.
"How is that possible," you ask, "in Rome?" Well, the Circensian games have been on, and that is a kind of spectacle which has not the slightest attraction for me. There is no novelty, no variety in it, nothing which one wants to see twice. Hence I am the more amazed that so many thousands of men * should be eager, like a pack of children, to see horses running time after time, and the charioteers bending over their cars. There might be some reason for their enthusiasm if it was the speed of the hors or the skill of the drivers that was the attraction, but it is the racing-colours which they favour, and the racing-colours that fire their love.
If, in the middle of the course and during the race itself, the colours were to be changed, their enthusiasm and partisanship would change with them, and they would suddenly desert the drivers and the horses, whom they recognise afar and whose names they shout aloud. Such is the influence and authority vested i one cheap tunic, I don't say with the common crowd, - for that is even cheaper than the tunic, - but with certain men of position; and when I consider that they can sit for so long without growing tired, looking on at such a fruitless, cheerless, and tedious sport, I really feel a sort of pleasure in the thought that what they take delight in has no charm for me. Thus it is that I have been only too glad to pass my leisure time among my books during the race-meeting, while others have been wasting their days in the most idle occupations.

I'm not incredibly fond of headlines like this because they are slightly misleading— you click on the article and what it's reporting on isn't actually AI specifically, but data centers in general— of which AI processing comprises 10-20%. Data centers overall make up about 2% of global power usage

Advice, please — I would like to learn more about k-pop. Is the best way to start with 1- or 2-pop in order to build intuition, or should I go directly for the general case?
