Unlike that OTHER guy who just wrote silly things and lied to pass them off as the work of an AI, I actually DID get the GPT-3 language model to generate new Seinfeld scripts. Behold: 4 New Puffy Shirt Episodes. (The first 5 lines are canon, the rest new)
Here's more Seinfeld scripts for you, authentically generated by the GPT-3 language model! Everything up to the words "Soup Nazi" is canon, the rest is written by machine. Soup Nazi goes on one of four different journeys

I'm not a fan of the "if we flatten the curve on COVID-19 and stop catastrophe, then our efforts will seem like an overreaction, just like y2k" thing, because y2k predictions in the media WERE an overreaction with planes falling from the skies and ATMs spitting out money, etc.
That was never going to happen, and journalists then simply didn't understand the nuance of how code fails. But the bad stuff predictions *now* are just what's already happening in Iran and China! So y2k, media-wise, feels like a misleading comparison. This threat is real.
My job in 1999 was to travel across the country with the government's Emergency Preparedness Canada division, updating their computers. We were patching Windows 98 so things would keep working. We were not worried about plane engines just turning off at midnight

A thread rating every dog emoji 🐕
APPLE:
- paw raised and alert ears suggest a dog of action
- hint of a smile on the dog's face is too subtle. am i imagining it? possessed eyes may be throwing me
WHICH REMINDS ME:
- white specular highlight in eye is right in the middle which makes this dog look PoSsEsSeD
GOOGLE
- mouth smiling, tongue out, this dog is here to party
- however, all-black eyes are lifeless and know your secrets
- scruff on the tail is nice, but we don't see any evidence of it elsewhere. add it on the head!
- this dog has seen too much but HASN'T let it change him

Here's the story of how I almost died when I was 24.
It was 2004, and I was living alone. I'd had bought a lava lamp years ago, moving it from place to place but never really plugging it in. This morning, I finally decided to plug it in... only to discover that the bulb had burned out.
Lava lamps work are, basically, wax suspended in water. The bulb heats the wax, causing it to melt and move up through the water, where it cools, causing it to fall. The result: cool trippy patterns.
