The only food texture that I dislike is that of cold meat, i.e. lunchmeat. Like, I could eat cooked meat until the dead cows come home, but with cold meat I can pick out every single spot of gristle and, rarely, bone. And that's terrible.

I can't think of any particular food that I have eaten that I haven't liked (certainly some foods I've seen that look terrible however), but not all of them tasted good enough to be liked either.

And then theres cabbage, which is weird edible plastic lettuce.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

The proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership
Could have told me it was a WikiLeaks link. Now I'm probably on five, ten more government watchlists just for clicking it.

Probably not. I'm not going to click it, just in case, but I don't think they have the resources to stalk every single wikileaks user, much less viewer.

Heehee hoho haha. Heuristics are a wonderful thing. Means that one person can track and monitor hundreds to thousands of other individuals with relatively little effort. Among all those other things that act as massive multipliers on how effective surveillance manpower can be.

Seriously, we've got to get used to the fact we're in a world where multiple organizations do have the resources to "stalk" hundreds of thousands to millions of people, especially in whatever said particular organization's primary area of interest is. We have both the technology and the methodology already, both are improving by the day and... that's really all there is to it.

Multiple governments can, could, do. Multiple corporations (hello, google!) can, could, do. It's a solved problem, and efficiency is increasing.

Rawr. I was tricked by the fact that a train pulled into the opposite track, so I didn't look up from my interneting only to hear the very close hiss of pneumatic doors closing right in front of me. Next train, ten minutes off.

On the other hand, small groups of civilians are now developing the ability to monitor governments and corporations with similar ease.

My two cents are on the third one.

Another crappy week. Tuesday, the display case for the Snapple drinks went on the fritz, causing about 10% of them freeze and shatter. I cut my fingers three times on the broken glass while cleaning it. Wednesday, I was asked to do bust my ass off getting everything done so the bitch afternoon supervisor, who was supposedly shorthanded, would be "in a good mood" because of it. She shows her "good mood" the next day by making a scene of showing me the "proper method" of cutting rolls(a lecture I've already had, thankyouverymuch) and apparently also complained that the legs of the dishwashing machine and its attached tables were dirty. I had to clean those yesterday, which accomplished precisely nothing.

I could be more unreasonably angry about the ending of Korra, but only just.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.
