Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

I guess I should be more specific on silkies. There are silkies around me. If I wanted I could walk 10 minutes up the road and get eggs that would be Branch's siblings. They would be a lot cheaper. I have a facebook friend who breeds silkies. These silkies are gorgeous and she and people she sells eggs and chicks to show them. I want these silkies. I want some whites and blacks from her.

(In Canada) And yet just over 100 yrs ago people were barely literate, didn’t drive and didn’t venture more that 1 mile from their homes.

Books were a rarity and expensive for the average person, manual menial labour was the norm. The average vocabulary was quite small.

This day and age almost everyone is literate and reads, knows of the world and other cultures, if they dont drive they at least have public transit…. And vocabulary is astounding!

I don’t think we are regressing at all, everything changes,

I hope you're right, but it's not what I observe.

My point was that someone is what they think.

Taking shortcuts on thinking (eg by outsourcing it to AI) is less likely to support people in becoming wise.

Aside from the social concerns, AI is inexplicable. No human can explain the precise reasons why it makes its decisions. If someone tried, they'd die before considering all the data. The sooner we can create AI that explains itself, the better.

Is she a Polish mix?

Ooooh. I think I may have this.
I think she is a Crested Cream Legbar. Also known to me and others on this thread as a Roadrunner.
@knoturavggrl, please tell me I got it right!

Eli is leading an expedition to tunnel under the deer netting in order to dig up the shrubs I planted for them.
