    I have basically the same training technique. I have one cat that doesn’t eat all their wet food immediate. When the others have tried to jump in, that no makes them freeze, then lift and remove without pets or other recognition, eventually they stop trying.

    Cats aren’t untrainable but they aren’t dogs so it requires different techniques and expectations.

    For keeping the dry food away from dogs, I keep their free feeders in the cat trees but that means getting the ones that have a large enough middle platform.

    I also feed them at night because they can’t make me going to sleep. They will make mad dashes to the area where they get wet food if they think I’m going to bed.









  • I’ve got a fun fact that’s true but will get you cancelled.

    Declawed cats live longer.

    People will lose their minds over it.

    It’s technically true but only because people who declaw their cats keep them indoors at higher rate than non declawed cat. This rate is high enough to offset the reduction in lifespan that accompanies getting a cat declawed.

    So on an individual left it’s not true but when you p-hack you can make a lot of nonsense things sound true.

    For example, I bet the co2 thing is an understatement if you select only for dogs of celebrities where the owner takes them in airplanes often. It’s possible the original statement was something along those lines but our human memory loves to drop those critical details.









  • it’s because every device connected to a cell halves the bandwidth available to each device, and after something like 30-40 devices the cell is full.

    I don’t know where you’re getting this from. There not how cells have worked since at least 3g, sort of sounds like how consumer grade WiFi hardware operates.

    Towers are designed with sectors that are directional and each can support thousands of devices but those can’t handle 10k people at a stadium.

    If you had bothered to read the article youd have read they are talking about how stadiums are now using distributed antenna systems (DAS), which is basically hundreds of antennas spread over the venue and fed directly into fiber. Each one is designed to handle a small section. The carriers do need to hook into the endpoint here so this isn’t something that can be setup on a whim.

    I don’t see it mentioned but there are also mobile units, cellular on wheels (COWS) are common one and they really easy to spot if know to look for them. Basically a cell tower on trailer that can use microwave for the back haul for when on site fiber isn’t available.

    If you end up at a venue and can’t get service it’s because the venue is too cheap to use any of these existing options. They could also be using some outdated antennas, LTE can’t handle as many connections as the new 5G stuff.




  • On temporary contracts and at reduced wages of course because times are tough.

    Software engineers predicted this would happen. The percentage of developers that love fixing other people’s code is essentially zero, fixing ai code is even smaller.

    If they require low wages, they’ll only get the worst of the worst. Expect this phase to repeat until they are forced to hire for competence and pay above market rate required to convince senior developers to deal with not just the ai mess but all the failed attempts to turn it around.
