I was seven years old and was drawing some nonsense when an absolute epiphany hit me. I’m talking secret chord of David played and the gates opened to shine this one very specific seed of True Knowledge into my head. Metaphorically of course.
So, in all of my sudden and true wisdom, I sprinted up the stairs and found my parental unit. With more confidence than a popstar on blow, I proclaimed “Mom, mom! I know why all fat people are short!”
As an adult, I wish I could go to this moment in time and freeze frame my mother’s expression.
“They use up all their skin!”
So yep. That’s… That’s the whole thing and that’s the end of the pretentious writing. I was so certain. That memory is so vivid in my head. Just the absolute intensity of that eureka.
Sorry, for not saying this a funny story, I was more serious (maybe, not the right word, as not sure what thread starting poster is exactly asking for) than others, on this thread.
I wanted to use AI to read parking regulations and tell you where you could park for how long. I was going to license the technology to Garmin for their GPS devices. This was around 2004.
I dislike this only because I hate AI anything.
Well it was way back in the day when I was in academia. Notice it was before OpenAI was a gleam in Altman’s eye.
Okay, gotcha,
I was telling this story to someone over lunch yesterday. They said it was a great idea, and they’d still like to see it implemented. They had stood outside the place trying to puzzle through the conflicting parking signs outside.
To think of every idea as ‘first, crappy pass,’ instead of ‘brilliant.’
old bay on jalapeño flavored kettle chips
Ohh I love this idea but with malt vinegar kettle chips. Fucking boardwalk fries in chips form.
That also sounds good, I’ll have to give that a try!
Got some of these today, it is indeed good!
Nice, definitely picking up some more chips next time I head to the store!
