The crine in endocrine and exocrine come from Ancient Greek κρίνω (krínō) which has many definitions, allegedly including “to separate, also to secrete”.... Except, does it? The "to secrete" meaning of κρίνω was actually only added to wiktionary by a random IP address in 2023.

I suppose since that because he still got the intended meaning from the spelling, you are right but it still bothers me when it makes written language harder to parse.
yeah, a lot of white people see it as nothing more than "trendy internet slang" or "gen z slang" and use it accordingly… tbh, it's a really gross thing to do to a dialect that is so often ridiculed and mocked by those same white people (frankly i'd even say the reduction to "internet slang" is part of the ridicule)
I’m crine that language nazis still exist on the internet

It's always weird that Lemmy folk die on this hill. Like the world doesn't care. Language will always be flexible and ever evolving and require effort to interpret
my dude, one of my surgeons had an accent so thick if i was in (severe) pain i needed an interpreter. he also had the tightest stitches on the west coast so hell yeah i was going to hire him. you're basically writing what it was like trying to listen to him in preop tho.
PLEASE use the LLMs, they are great, we promise, PLEASE we are begging you, it will change your life, PLEASE we spent billions of dollars on it thinking it will solve everything and now the shareholders are starting to ask questions PLEASE just one podcast from a PDF, PLEASE you will like it, trust me PLEASE BELIEVE ME.
It's SO dumb. Why would anyone actually specifically seek out and listen to an AI podcast generated by some random documents? How would anyone locate it? Why would anyone create branding for it?
i guess the apparent intention was so that it can be listened to, instead of read. the actual intention was to get money from the same type of person this appeals to
no shit we had someone come in to our work and was paid to lecture us for an hour on how to do this. they recommended it for when we're catching up on work outside of work - something I absolutely will never do

alexa, change the numbers from actual verbal numbers to binary in EEEEEEEEE at the pitch F3 held for fourteen seconds for each one bit and UUUUUUUUUUU at the pitch A2 held for twenty-one seconds for each zero bit. Also throw in a C10 for four point two seconds every thirteenth bit with the vowel əəəəəəəəəə just to fuck with people.
My coworker sent me a screenshot of this the other day so I loaded a 2-page bid scope for a project. It spent half the time on the boilerplate terms and conditions
"Ah, so I see here that [my company] doesn't run conduit"
"Yeah, that's so true! It's up to [client] to run the conduit before work begins"
"Right! Makes sense to me!"
There was also no option to save the mp3. You had to play it with the odd open
One is a symptom of the other. All the tech companies went insane in the covid years, gorged on free debt and infinite demand for their services. A drug high that would never end... until it did, of course.
Now they're all blowing their banks out trying to recapture the magic of that era, with """AI""" as their supposedly-golden ticket. A shame it'll all come crashing down soon, and take the world economy with it.

Joining 'every' and 'time' like that is so triggering, like 'aswell' (when not talking about waves) and 'atleast'. Kudos for the attention to detail.

😭 is the emoji for exocrine
::: spoiler spoiler lacrimal glands, where tears are produced, are actually a type of exocrine gland.

I did not in any way understand they were trying to say "crying" until I saw your comment.
I read it as though it was pronounced like it rhymed with the "trine" bit of "latrine".
