teen witch posted:Users ditch Glassdoor, stunned by site adding real names without consent I thought the whole point of that site was to anonymously review/talk poo poo about companies you worked for. That's the worst possible thing they could have done. An important life lessons for everyone though.

Desert Bus posted:AI poo poo is already loving up the Pain Management field already. I don't know if this is unique to Australian vets: my parents have a labrador with a heart valve issue, his prescribed medication is almost identical to human heart valve medication. For his prescription, it lists his name, and then also my parents surname to "make up" his full name on the list i.e. the prescription explicitly has a full name with surname on it, so my parents aren't on it themselves. They've never had a problem getting the medication from a chemist or online with this method. The only issue they've had, is a cautious young chemist asking if the patient had verbally told them about any side-effects, only for my parents to explain it's for a dog. His medical file is now officially annotated with a (Dog) from the chemist, so anyone accessing the prescription, can see that a chemist has marked it as being for an animal. Is this kind of thing the norm, or not really a standard thing for vet prescriptions in other countries? Not that it'll prevent AI screw-ups with names from happening , but at least a "Prescription clearly states it's for Bear Surname, not Kathryn Surname!" is easier to explain than putting all vet prescriptions under your own name, surely?

run on sentience posted:I don't know if they got shittier because I've never had them before, but I got some Bose earbuds as a gift and the sound and noise cancelling are awesome, but the loving touch controls are so sensitive as to make them unusable. If so much as a strand of hair touches them, they pause or skip or switch modes. Forget wearing them under a hat in the winter. No way to turn the controls off either. I would love to buy some cheap ear buds that don't have touch control on them. I don't need to accidentally activate voice calling while pushing my ear bud back in after it gets loose.

My cats prescriptions are in my name but the name on the label is my cat’s, and if I order them online, it’s under my government ID number. Even if it was all 100 percent in my name, most pharmacists would see that it’s coming from a veterinarian, and not a human doctor. That isn’t to say AI couldn’t gently caress it up. I think AI can surmise that Raichu J. Cat is indeed a cat but not so much Sigurd. UFOTacoMan posted:I would love to buy some cheap ear buds that don't have touch control on them. I don't need to accidentally activate voice calling while pushing my ear bud back in after it gets loose. My AirPod Pros are shockingly quite dece with the touch controls. I have to put a bit of force into some of the functions which is appreciated. One of the best purchases I’ve made in some time.

They do keep an eye on it tho. My ex-SIL was caught in her relapse because the vet called my brother about how much she was refilling her tiny dog's opiate prescriptions. They kept 'falling into the toilet'.

Unless you are rich there is just not going to be anyone around anymore to provide medical care for most people.

No idea if it's standard with scripts, but when I was young we always found it funny and endearing the way both the vet and the council paperwork would refer to our cat as 'Misty [Our Surname]". Oz too.

What does N, 1, 2, or the additional D mean? My car has a D which means "go mode" but it also has another D with a box around it  Like here the N and P have boxes around it but the D doesn't I know P means "brake on" and N means "brake on but with brake off"

My car has a D which means "go mode" but it also has another D with a box around it  are you loving seriousP = park, as in neutral with the parking pawl set, the car cannot move N = neutral, the car is not in gear, the engine is not connected to the wheels, though it still might roll under its own weight D = drive, the car is in gear, the transmission controls which gear automatically D in a box = overdrive enabled, the car will shift into an extra-high gear to conserve fuel, this was a bigger deal on older auto boxes where downshifting could be really slow 3/2/1 = lock the car in a specific gear ratio, usually for towing or for driving on ice do they not teach people how to operate a transmission anymore, I knew this poo poo when I was 6 Woolie Wool fucked around with this message at 23:53 on Mar 20, 2024 |

Professor Shark posted:Why do P and N have boxes around them, though? Because they will be the positions where the safety interlocks allows the engine to be started - the others will cut power to the starter. And the 3, 2, 1 etc. positions are often gear limiters, not just selector for one gear. So '1' will keep the transmission in first, '2' will let it use first and second, '3' will let it use first, second and third.

wash bucket posted:My truck has an automatic transmission but it makes you wiggle the shifter left and right so you feel like a big boy truck driver. This is like that story about when cake mixes started hitting the shelves, they decided to omit egg powder (or whatever) since beating an egg into the thing for the test groups "felt more like you were really baking something." That said, I would love a set of four toggle switches mounted near the rear view mirror that all had to be flipped, one by one, to turn the engine on.

Just pick up some basic soldering skills and you can! Cutting a hole into your own car on purpose for the first time is a really eye opening experience (for real, no sarcasm) You can even buy some cheap gate logic chips and use them to make a duke3d-esque button password immobilizer

Duolingo just redid the Chinese course and now it thinks I'm 3 modules into a course where I know none of the vocabulary. I backtracked to unit 1, lesson 1, and there was vocab I'd never seen in my life, but it thinks I know it so it didn't highlight it as new. Also some of the prompts are loving nonsense. "China, Italy" is a weird thing to translate. There's so many more sentence fragments than there used to be Killingyouguy! fucked around with this message at 13:38 on Mar 21, 2024 |
