A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You have to escape the dash, otherwise it becomes a bullet point.

In the age of A.I., and in software programming in general, it’s often the opposite.

Sure, definitely a solid view. I don’t remember who said that, but “the shortest way to solve a problem is knowing which questions to ask and to whom” — something like that.

I really like how this is split almost exactly in half, I would love to see more arrows, more data is always best.
