This position is so extreme, you'd have to have called Reader Rabbit "electroshocking kids" as well.

Actually the prior art is Screaming Lord Sutch of the Monster Raving Looney Party[1] who started in 1963.

As a former Monster Raving Looney I have decided to defect to the Binface Party based on their sensible policies on the hand dryer in the Uxbridge Crown & Treaty pub.

Lord Buckethead is much older than Boaty McBoatface.

Better prior art [1], in an actual election.

Also members of the Original Monster Raving Loony Party, who have achieved multiple seats, including Mayor of Ashburton.

Still no: "Lord Buckethead" first stood in 1987, some 15 years before the "H'Angus the monkey" campaign in 2002.

I thought that's the prior art https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Waldo_Moment

Nope. Several decades later.

The "Boaty McBoatface" campaign was from 2016. "Lord Buckethead" first appeared in 1987, some 30 years earlier.

Is "residential proxy" a euphemism for botnets or is there a difference? Genuinely curious.

- worst is "extension" based traffic routing where your provider is essentially tricking end users into routing traffic through - opt-in p2p networks can be described as botnets sometimes, i try to avoid these but not as bad - good enough dISP proxies can be classified as residential quality, work quite well, although people have argued w me on their quality - managed business/enterprise residential gateways are ideal, because businesses opt in and allow the traffic - few other options

> The Possessed (2010), The Idiot (2017), and Either/Or (2022)

That's like publishing Hamlet (2010), King Lear (2017), and Thus Spake Zarathustra (2022). I wonder what her thought process is in choosing these titles? And what will her next work be?

She has an academic background in Russian Literature and writes really engaging essays about her encounters with the literature (The Possessed). I can’t recommend her novels and essays enough. They’re riotously funny and erudite and readable if you’re looking for something.

Her coming-of-age short story or perhaps memoir of a few years ago in The New Yorker has stayed with me. Only after finishing and contemplating it does the tragedy of the young woman's experience really make itself felt.

Thanks, that does sound good

What's inaccurate in how he quoted her? The context seems fully consistent with the quote.

because "earning" meant something different in AOC' speech.

"just"

> exams are designed so that cheating is not a viable strategy to obtain high grades

That's interesting. How do they do that?

Mostly by requiring analysis and synthesis rather than memorization.

It's been some years for me so things might have changed, but no tech was allowed into the exam rooms, except for calculators in some subjects. Everything was done by pen and paper.

mlinsey wasn't anthropomorphizing technology, and your GP comment seems extreme to me.
