It is someone roleplaying as Milo Murphy from the animated series Milo Murphy’s Law. The joke is that Milo is a direct descendant of that Murphy and the Law describes his family.

Drowning isn’t peaceful. There’s ways of asphyxiation that are surprisingly peaceful, but drowning isn’t one of them, not even when done well.

But also, don’t die to escape from a job. You can escape normally. It’s usually really easy to do: they let you go home, just don’t come back. Go do literally anything else.

Is it biased to judge a video by its thumbnail, title and first few minutes? Especially if it’s a video of an hour that’s front loaded with fluff, I don’t have any reason to assume the rest of the hour will be worth my time. The longer the video, the more important it is to show you’re not just padding for length.

Finally got around to watching (half), and she does explain it and gets into some real interesting technical stuff, so I judged too soon.

I think she’s doing herself a disservice by opening with the dramatic reenactment though, because I bounced off on that, also on an earlier video. There’s not really a gradual buildup either, so someone who actually likes the drama will get a cold blast of RAM spec sheet right after and likely stop there. Better to let everyone know what they’re getting into at the start, right?

The title is objectively clickbait though, even if she does eventually explain the design flaw. But I think if she’s doing an hour on the history of RAM design, she could be honest about that.

This is probably a matter of taste, but I can’t sit through 58 minutes of slow buildup just to get to “ram has to refresh, that takes 300 nanoseconds sometimes, you could eliminate that at the hardware level by making all ram twice as expensive”

Thanks Laurie, but you don’t have to pretend all ram is fundamentally broken to make me watch an hour of maths and engineering. 3blue1brown does that all the time with titles like “What is a laplace transform?” and thumbnails of plain formulas on black backgrounds.

Can someone explain Laurie Wired to me? I see her in my recommendations sometimes, but I don’t click obvious clickbait.

Take this one, is it actually a design flaw or is it just a compromise that was made for good reasons and is kept around for those same reasons?

Maybe I’ll watch the video and report back, can always remove it from my watch history.

Edit: It’s an hour? Not like I won’t watch hour-long videos, but that’s a lot to figure out if it was clickbait or not.

She is literally in Misato cosplay though.

I know mine does it, but it could be a feature of the 4chanX extension? I haven’t used 4chan without it in years. It’s not direct quotes, but you click the number to see the post inline.

Double check? You mean ask Grok if ChatGPT circled the right buildings on the satellite image?

The Japanese examples that OP gave aren’t much different. 花火 is literally flower-fire and 火花 is fire-flower. You switch them around, one part takes precedence while the other gets a supporting role in the compound.

I’m saving this for when someone sends me a friendly message and I don’t know how to respond. It will probably derail my relationship, but at least they know what happened.

What’s this flattened piece of metal doing on the table? Wait a minute… Are you Superman in disguise and the bullets fired from a silenced gun bounced off your invulnerable chest and landed on the table? …What am I saying? If that were true, Superman obviously would have eaten them to hide the evidence.
