I agree. Not many cats even use collars. I thought they were the relic of some optimistic veterinary practices lol

This confused me as well.
What they are saying is that all cats get the ear clip to show they’ve been vaccinated, if the cat is not going to a forever home and is just being released back into the streets/wild.
Shelters have more intimate knowledge of whether or not the cat is going to be released, so they don’t bother with the tags. Vet clinics don’t usually handle releasing or holding cats and give a rabies tag to cats that they vaccinate because they deal more with owners and pets who could have a reason to put such a tag on a collar.


I love them.


I thought that they were trying to get at the hypocrisy of using ai tools to detect ai writing, which has a dismal success rate and ends up with a crazy amount of false positives.
I see that the growth of computer/digital testing directly led to student abuse of ai. Once students were no longer called on to write a blue book or even just generate responses to short answer questions, we failed our students. I understand that term papers and larger writing assignments have their place, but there really is nothing like being able to sit down and show your knowledge in an on the spot essay (at least for a lot of humanities courses where I see ai being abused).
A systemic issue in this space comes from universities and licensing entities giving testing companies carte blanche to race to the bottom in terms of effective testing tools. For licensing, apprenticeship/mentorship and observation are always better indicators of on the job performance, but that doesn’t have the ease and profit margins of big bullshit testing, so companies would never go for it unless states mandated such pathways. With regard to a lot of current digital university testing, a lot of that was Frankensteined from existing licensing exam tools/strategies and similarly does not effectively assess student/candidate aptitude.
Even if this was not the intent of the commentor, my argument is that carelessness and disingenuous/gatekeeping testing practices from universities and licensing institutions certainly bred a significant level of disengagement in students which leads to them phoning it in with ai slop. If we wanted rigorous work from our students, we should have kept the same standards for ourselves, collectively.
I mean, before that, for sure, too. And not just Sam.


I used proton vpn on Debian for a while just fine. Not exactly the same, but you can still set up the GUI app.
Edit: Don’t mind me lol I remember having issues with testing. Just read/processed everything.


We can only hope this helps kill the fad. I know companies won’t be taking any realistic lesson from this, but at least this can force them to abandon a lot of this crap.
That’s basically where I was going with the joke, anyway. I’m hoping this could be the change they need to reassess their life and join the human race.
And conservative men.
This is a baby. I love this baby!

Both oppressive theocracy and oppressive imperialism coexist and are ending and destroying lives in Iran. Really, a horrible moment and I cannot fathom what people have gone through, there.


We’re past the point of redistribution. We need to take it out of their hides as well.
They are precious beans and must be protected.


If they brick your system, is it a fair response to brick their CEO and company property? I feel like that’s the recourse here.


That scientist sure looks like he has experience with clean burning propane and propane accessories, I tell you hwat!
I’ve never seen it, because even as a kid, I knew James Cameron was a hack and it would be some rehashed story with new paint that he’d call the next big thing.
Turns out it was basically Dances With Wolves with blue aliens.
Edit: Or so I have been told.
Honestly, they did not integrate very far. Obligatory fuck Mormonism.
