OK, DANG! mostly sucked, as expected -- >70% of the jokes didn't land and the characters were bitter unsympathetic parodies of 2010s-era NYC 30-somethings. But the final episode, where they visit their conservative Asian parents in rural Massachusetts, was GREAT! Quoting @Noahpinion OMG my girlfriend likes DANG! and she's making me watch it Help Related

Receptionist claimed that if I self paid for a doctors visit it would he insurance fraud. Sigh, now I have to write a letter to their board suggesting they not mislead their patients. (I assume it would violate an agreement they have with the insurer, which is no excuse for that behavior) Related

When you live in actual Appalachia and you visit tourist Appalachia. Passed by a dilapidated shotgun shack with a hose running to the creek, a tiny town with a bank teller who gave me $300 with no ID. Then many switchbacks ... then a bit later the Titanic on one side and King Kong on a skyscraper on the other. Related

Friday afternoon reminder to not empty your inbox at the expense of someone else's. I'm deep in my Massachusetts visit, becoming one of those people who can't look at a place without remembering what used to be there. My birthday is tomorrow, so there are all sorts of opportunities for reflecting and remembering. Oh and I guess it's a holiday weekend in the US, so maybe schedule those emails for Tuesday.

And I feel like it's a very human way of doing web search, right? Because we enter things in the Google and we see all the like citations, the quotations part. But like why would we limit AI to that? If AI already visit a page, why don't just pull the entire page out?

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
