It’s also worth noting that this is famous enough that Amazon has offered a service called Mechanical Turk since 2005.
The implementation and service are both fine in theory, but you do need to be clear that what’s being paid for is humans pretending to be computers.
It really depends what sort of recipes you’re making, but for cooking very loose approximations are often fine.
I often have to convert to weight/mass in order to find out how much of an ingredient to buy. I have no idea how many cups an eggplant is. But once I get it home the recipe might as well say “however much eggplant you have.”
If I’m truly off, I will typically scale up the recipe adjusting for the extra meat or vegetable content. I’ll more or less assume that 1lb of meat is interchangeable with 1lb of veggies. That’s not quite true, in particular with salt.
Your mileage may vary though. Some recipes and ingredients are much more sensitive to deviations.
I had read (in a comment here, so take with a grain of salt) that some had started doing Proof of Work.
I.E. they ask the visiting computer to do some math. This is potentially less annoying to people than clicking on traffic lights or typing unreadable text, but could get costly if you’re using bots.
Per capita probably isn’t a good way to measure this.
Car deaths should probably be by miles driven.
IIRC, the Pope is only considered infallible when they say they are. Otherwise they’re just speaking as the highest ranking member. So most of the time what they say is not treated by members of the clergy as the literal word of god.
Maybe other Catholics are more in the know, but this isn’t a distinction I was aware of when I was a practicing Catholic. That might be because the Pope really didn’t come up much at all. I’m sure he influenced policy, but his words seemed to come up in the news, and not really much outside that.
For me it also happens constantly with things like the crossword, which obviously can’t be listening.
Links between folks is part of it, but a lot is just ordinary coincidence.
Maybe English (Malta) if that’s an option
Has-text is case sensitive. Adding / before the keyword and /i after will set it to case insensitive.
Example:
lemmy.world##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(/Blockchain/i)
You can also use | to add multiple keywords to the filter.
Example:
lemmy.world##.d-sm-block.d-none > .row:has-text(/Blockchain|ChatGPT/i)
It took me like half the movie to understand the pidgin for New Hawaii.
The book doesn’t jump around. Each story is like a book opened to the halfway point, with another book inserted. They’re all nested like this down to New Hawaii, which plays through straight, before finishing each story in turn.
I love ambitious (if somewhat failed) movies like this, and I’m not really sure if the Wachowskis could have done a better job.
I’m not who you’re responding to, but you may wish to check the first comment in the thread again.
The first comment says “running theme,” which most people would interpret to mean generally.
Also, if you’ve got that kind of money surely you can find someone to bring a crate or take the dog elsewhere.
Several offices have a minimum age defined in the Constitution. President’s is 35
