Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's it called when an inventor's invention backfires on them?
3·2 years agoIrony can be used in many situations. I want a German word that specifically refers to this situation. Something like Erfinderhybris; I just slammed Inventor and Hubris together.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The way my daughter's middle school health class classifies drugs is insane.
8·2 years agoIt’s better than D.A.R.E. which is what a lot of us got.
My version was the last question of the test. She wanted us to read an entire test and then start answering after we finished reading it.
Lady, was I supposed to read an entire section of the SAT before taking it? That sounds so nutty.
Just want to drop the concept of Ikigai here:

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are things just shittier or are we more aware of shittiness?
8·3 years agoFor certain, and in the grand scheme of things 50 years is nothing. For most of humanity generation upon generation would pass without any significant advance.
The last 100 years really hints at the speed of the singularity curve as things are getting better at an insane rate. But there are costs to those advances that if left unchecked can truly threaten the future of our species.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are things just shittier or are we more aware of shittiness?
3·3 years agoDefinitely the latter. If I can recommend a book please read it despite it’s title: “Everything is Fucked” by Mark Manson.
The title is supposed to be a joke as when things get better we still will find even the smallest of problems, everything isn’t fucked it’s our perception. This is human nature. There’s other really interesting observations in the book that I really enjoyed, but that’s the main theme.
Enjoyed this show way more than I thought I would!

Technology@lemmy.world•Netflix Doc ‘What Jennifer Did’ Uses AI Images to Create False Historical Record
18·3 years agoAre the images clearly labeled, or are they trying to pass them off as reality? There’s a clear difference.
Yeah shoulda used UTC-5 to -8.
Though dunking on Alaskans is funny!

4·3 years agoCheck out “Everything is Fucked” by Mark Manson. Really good take on modern philosophy of what you’re talking about here. Sorry for the silly edgy title.
