@hammock Feb 2013 Makes a joke
on HN thread How I Stopped Eating Food
It looks remarkably like the "bowl of snot" that Neo and his buddies eat in the Matrix. "It's a single-celled protein combined with synthetic aminos, vitamins, and minerals. Everything the body needs." [this video]
@joewee Aug 2018 Makes a joke
on HN thread This AI is bad at drawing but will try anyways
This reminds me of the scene from the Matrix when they question whether the AI knows how to replicate the taste of human food “maybe they couldn’t figure out what chicken taste like, which is why chicken taste like everything.” [this video]
