There are old mushroom foragers and then there are bold ones. There are no bold, old mushroom foragers.
There are no bold, old mushroom foragers
Sure there are, they just have to not eat what they picked up.
Source: friend’s mom once gave food poisoning to the whole family by serving them an omelet made with mushrooms she found, but didn’t eat it herself. Fortunately it was merely mushrooms of the “fucks up your stomach” variety.
“Once” has no effect on my statement. There are no Bold, Old mushroom foragers.
In his story, his friend’s mother boldly picked mushrooms from her backyard, cooked them into an omelet for the family, but DID NOT EAT the omelet herself.
Nothing would stop her from growing old while continuing this pattern of bold collecting, although a stint in prison might make for an earlier retirement than expected from the foraging scene.
Okay, Brown Ben Plumm.
Neural networks are magical anywhere that near misses are good enough.
Companies keep using them as if they’re infallible, when lives and fortunes are at stake.
Tech is not the problem.
Yeah, I have to agree with you. For example, I would have no problem using a decently tested LLMs for engineering simply because Engineering usually accounts for errors and uses appropriate factors to accommodate them. Sure LLMs could be get more accurate in future, but I believe the error will reduce asymptotically. Essentially, more accurate LLMs get, it will get that much harder to increase the accuracy. There is always a price to pay, IMO.

Only once. ;)
2 mushrooms hard to fuck up in America.
I remember selling like 5 lbs of morels when I was a kid and getting like $200. That was without even driving to the city to make the real money.
Chicken of the Woods is the shit!!!
My fucked up brain goes like, “woah, I wonder what death tastes like.”
Probably bitter and followed by a slow agonizing death by liver failure.
As somebody who has been through liver failure and transplant, it really sucks. I do not recommend it.
I remember being on a wilderness weekend many years ago and being told that when you cut the stem on some poisonous shrooms they discolour a sort of blue tint. I’m lucky, I hate the taste and texture of mushrooms.
Funny you say this, there is actually a mushroom that does this color change but is edible. Allegedly doesn’t taste very good, though.
Best not to eat any wild mushrooms at all unless a verified mycologist can look at them first.
Mushroom haters unite!
I hate every mushroom I have ever tried- except shiitake mushrooms, which don’t taste like mushrooms and are amazing.
I’m literally 100% the opposite. Give me some morels, porcini, lions mane… anything but shiitake.
Sounds like we like/dislike them for the same reasons.
Does it grow in shiit? 😅
Moost of your fooood dooes.
“Just off for a shiit, mate!”
Adds this to the big list of horrible ways to die
I wonder if it fits above or bellow the Demon Core.
At least looks like this is quicker.

Is blue sky “instance” just sub-domains of bsky.social ?!
Usernames are subdomains on bsky
I was confused as these two person are on different sub-domains of bsky.social (url after the @ symbol). Does this mean they are on different instance? AFAIK most mastodon server I see have different domain (specifically, different combination of top level domain and second level domian).
EDIT: I see, theur user name is the subdomain, and things before @ is their display name. Not the most conventional system, but it makes sense.
Fun guy
Amanita phalloides, if I’m not mistaken?
Is Gemini using the same model as Lens?
