    This article falsely assumes the only options are halting traffic to wait for an opening or dash faster than speed of traffic until the end of the lane closure then just expect someone to allow room so kinda a bad explanation of zipper merge and proper driving etiquette

    Not sure if you took drivers ed but zipper merging is not zooming past stopped cars to last second dart over in the shoulder, it’s speed matching the lane you are merging into to weave in like a zipper. Crazy how even the name isn’t informative enough for people to understand the concept

    Few things bring me joy like showing just a wee bit of room to bait those fools to try to cut a dozen people off just to slowly close the gap as they approach my blind spot and force them behind me

    I watch people get out of line then dash down the single file all to get 4 cars ahead so they get to work 4sec faster. No sympathy for antisocial scum




  • If AI makes you afraid for your job you should be doubly afraid because if current AI can replace your job then your job isn’t actually a real job it was only ever temporary

    There are tons of jobs that won’t be touched by AI for decades. I won’t see AI hurt jobs in my field for at least 40+ years. Rather than fixating on slowing AI we should be encouraging people to develop real skills a very simple robot cannot do. Humans will be building houses for the rest of the lives of everyone currently alive today


  • The people with this sentiment are largely jaded women who skipped kids and have to cope themselves and the next generation into sharing their spinster misery. It’s a tale as old as time lol. It’s this very weird phenomenon specifically with women to want to spread their misery to other women. It’s a hyper competitive behavior that seems to peak in their 40s/50s
