Isn’t ravioli just a dumpling?

Just like chili is a stew (which is a very thick soup) and hot dogs (and tacos) are open faced sandwiches and so forth.

Pretty much all of these memes fall apart if you at all know how to cook. Which is probably why they are so lasting.

Agree, AI will be a human's greatest invention if we use them at the correct places. LLM IS NOT AN AI

Fucking seriously this!

Nothing is ai yet.

What we have is very resource intensive machine learning. When I first heard about machine learning it was because it created an equation that solved the double pendulum experiment. But it's kinda useless to us cause we don't understand how the equation works. I thought we were going to get high level protein folding figurer outers. But instead we got :: checks my notes:: a charging that can't even pass the Turing test...

We don't deserve the magic of electricity.

I think the hyphen in poptart is a bigger sin than the statement.

The symbol you used, "•" U+2022 is the bullet, but what if the packaging is actually using "·" U+2027, the interpunct, which would suggest the product is actually called "poptarts" not "pop-tarts". Or it might be "·" U+22C5, multiplication, meaning we could simplify the product name to "2(pt)oars".

Two part oars.

That's ridiculous. The singular of ravioli is raviolo, a singular pop tart couldn't possibly be multiple ravioli.

[–] Evotech@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Raviolo is a large ravioli

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Ravioli are mini pop tarts!

Easy. First off:

Pop-tarts are calzones.

Sorry it's actually a lasagna.

There are 3 foods. There is soup. There is salad. And then there is lasagna. That's it.

A vanilla soy latte is a bean soup.

Would spaghetti and meatballs be salad?

[–] JargonWagon@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Where does steak fall into these classifications?

[–] Nycto@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Steak is single layer meat lasagna with no sauce

This is infuriating, I will not have it. No.
