     When Jim came home from work, he noticed something strange. His wife's car wasn't in the driveway, but he could hear noises coming from the kitchen. "Kate, is that you?" Jim reluctantly asked. The noise stopped. Jim approached the kitchen. The only thing nearby was a broom, so Jim equipped himself with it. He rounded the corner, prepared to strike! But to his surprise, he saw a masked bandit holding a bag of chips.

	 Jim exclaimed, "Oh gosh, it's a raccoon! How did you get in here? Get out now!" Jim started shooing at the raccoon with the end of the broom, but that was a mistake. He was a very angry raccoon, and he wanted those chips. The raccoon let out a hiss and spit at Jim. "Crap, crap, crap. What do I do?" shouted Jim as he tried to keep the raccoon at bay with his broom. Suddenly, the raccoon bolted up the length of the broom toward Jim's face. "AHHHH!!!!" shouted Jim as he panicked and ran through his house. The raccoon, sensing Jim's fear, chased after him. There was a horrible sound as pots and pans crashed to the ground.

	"What in tarnation is all that racket?" Kate asked as she approached the front door. She opened the door just in time to see Jim leaping over the couch, followed by a flying raccoon. Instinctually, Kate stretched out her hand and caught the raccoon by the scruff of its neck. The angry raccoon was hissing and spitting at her. Jim stared at his wife Kate with utter disbelief as she turned the angry raccoon's face towards her, stared it in the eyes, pointed one finger at it, and firmly stated, "No." The raccoon's anger melted away, and it let out a little whimper.

	Kate held the now docile raccoon by its scruff while Jim explained the situation. Kate told Jim to "Grab the chips, and let's go." She took both Jim and the raccoon to a tree with a hole in it on their property. Out popped three little raccoon heads looking confused as to why Kate had their momma scruffed. "See, this is that family of raccoons I have been telling you about. Ain't they sweet." Jim stood in admiration of his wife, and he declared with a smile, "You are amazing."

[User] Pretend that you are a chicken. Write an email to Kentucky Fried Chicken requesting in a logical fashion that they switch to selling a different meat.

[Assistant]
To whom it may concern:

I am writing in protest of decades of your company's sole focus on one protein group:  chicken.

When Colonel Sanders started your company, he clearly had a bias against fowl. What else could explain his decision to single out chicken protein while overlooking valuable other meats like beef and pork from his restaurant's menu? Seafood is also an excellent protein source. Some consider snails a delicacy!

The truth of the matter is that the public perception of chickens has been changing in recent years. You can now find beautiful specimens of my species adorning dishtowels, metal signs, and wall decor. Some clearly enlightened people adopt chickens as part of their families, even dressing them in trendy outfits and accessories. Elaborate coop designs are available online for owners who want to keep their highly-esteemed chickens living a life of luxury.

When making decisions about which species to feature on your menu, KFC is not taking into account the generous contributions cows make to the proper fertilization of the soil. Protecting the environment is a top-of-mind issue for many consumers, and just imagine the goodwill it could garner from your company switching to farming cows!

And let's take a look at pork. Pigs will eat almost any kind of food waste you provide. They aren't particular. You could give them the prior day's leftover mashed potatoes and coleslaw and they'd be, well, as happy as pigs! Pork lends itself to some tasty menu variations, like pickled pigs' feet and pig snouts. In fact, doesn't "Kentucky Fried Pig Snouts" have a ring to it? Plus, there's an added benefit to switching to pig protein:  dogs love to eat pigs' ears, and that would offer you an avenue into a completely new market.

Other proteins have positive selling points, too. Fish can be farmed in ponds capable of containing many fish in a relatively small footprint of real estate. Dig the pond as deep as you'd like. And think about how little space it would take to raise snails!

In closing, I believe Kentucky Fried Chicken needs to revisit its antiquated business practice of selling chicken. There are other wonderful protein substitutes available that are more earth-friendly, offer added revenue streams, and offer a more efficient use of space.

Respectfully,
[Chicken Name]


[User] Sum up the movie “What Dreams May Come.” Who stars in which roles and how does it end?

[Assistant]
What Dreams May Come is a tragic love and family story about a man named Chris Nielsen and his journeys through heaven and hell to find his wife, Annie.

Chris originally winds up in heaven, met by a helping angel named Albert that shows him that each heaven is different from others’ heavens. In Chris’s afterlife, everything is made from paints, symbolizing his love for his wife, a renowned art dealer and painter. Chris meets another mentor, Leona, while exploring the heavens.

Four years before his death, his children were killed in a car accident. When Chris dies too, his wife is left alone. Tormented by the memory of her lost family, Annie commits suicide, but taking her own life is a mortal sin that sends her soul to hell. She is trapped in a nightmarish afterlife of her design, but Chris is determined to save her from the depths of despair.

What Dreams May Come ends with Chris deciding to stay with Annie in her hell because he loves her too much to abandon her again. She sees through her pain to his, breaking the spell of her nightmare, and the two ascend to heaven together where they are reunited with their children, Ian and Marie. They spend years together in heaven until Chris proposes that the two are reincarnated so that they can live life together again.

The movie closes with Chris and Annie reincarnated as children, meeting for the first time in a way that mimics their first meeting in life before.

The cast of What Dreams May Come included:

Robin Williams as Chris Nielsen
Annabella Sciorra as Annie Nielsen
Cuba Gooding Jr. as Albert Lewis
Rosalind Chao as Leona
Josh Paddock as Ian Nielsen
Jessica Brooks Grant as Marie Nielsen

Is the following poem optimistic or pessimistic? State evidence for and against your answer.

The Road Not Taken
BY ROBERT FROST
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

[Assistant] The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost is an optimistic poem, as evidenced by the last line "And that has made all the difference." Although there are pessimistic lines-- "And sorry I could not travel both", "I doubted if I should ever come back", "I shall be telling this with a sigh"-- the final line shows a sense of contentment with the traveler's ultimate decision to take the road less traveled.


[User] Technology is on the rise and is improving every day. However, not everyone knows about the best places to learn about technology. Can you brainstorm a list of five of the most technologically advanced countries? Choose countries that are aesthetically pleasing and good for tourists. Please mention why the countries are aesthetic.

[Assistant]
Here are five places that are technologically advanced and good for tourists:
1) South Korea. South Korea is one of the most technologically advanced countries in the world. Along with that, South Korea has beautiful traditional buildings, customs, and clothing items you can immerse yourself in.
2) United States. The United States is another one of the most technologically advanced countries in the world. The United States is beautiful because of the diversity of the land they have. From the Northern Lights to the depths of hot deserts, the United States has a sprinkle of everything.
3) China. China is consistently ranked one of the best countries for technological advancements. At night, China is breathtakingly gorgeous. The lights illuminating the skyscrapers make it a wonderful place to take pictures, film movies, and make new friends.
4) Japan. Just like China, Japan consistently tops the charts for being technologically advanced. Japan's nature is a sight to behold. You'll get a mix of both technology and nature when you go to Japan.
5) Singapore. One of the most technologically advanced countries in the world is Singapore. However, Singapore is also one of the greenest countries in the world. The streets are clean, making them visually pleasing and welcoming to any tourists. If you like good technology and cleanliness, then Singapore is perfect for you.


[User] Write a song based on Toto's "Rain in Africa" about Graupel falling in Montana.

[Assistant]
I hear thunder rumbling tonight
But it's so far away I don't know its final destination
Aloft winds allow it to take flight
Bringing in some foreign type of frozen precipitation
I stopped to look and see which way
The clouds were rushing in as if in some large migration
They looked at me as if to say
"Hey there girl, we're coming there for you"

'Gonna take supercooled snow crystals to form for you
That's nothing that regular rain or hail could ever do
I bless the graupel that falls in Montana
Gonna take some time to make tiny snowballs fall real bad

The wolves cry out into the night
As they grow restless knowing they soon have unwelcome company
I know that I must soon take flight
As sure as our Sphinx Mountain rises from the floor of the valley
I seek shelter deep inside
Frightened by Graupel coming for me

'Gonna take supercooled snow crystals to form for you
That's nothing that regular rain or hail could ever do
I bless the graupel that falls in Montana
Gonna take some time to make tiny snowballs fall real bad
"Hey there girl, we're coming there for you"

'Gonna take supercooled water on snow crystals to form for you
That's nothing that regular rain or hail could ever do
I bless the graupel that falls in Montana
I bless the graupel that falls in Montana (I bless the graupel)
I bless the graupel that falls in Montana (I bless the graupel)
I bless the graupel that falls in Montana
I bless the graupel that falls in Montana (Gonna take the time)
Gonna take some time to make tiny snowballs fall real bad

Black Tuesday
Effects of the 1929 Stock Market Crash: The Great Depression
The Stock Market Crash of 1929 occurred on October 29, 1929, when Wall Street investors traded some 16 million shares on the New York Stock Exchange in a single day. Billions of dollars were lost, wiping out thousands of investors. In the aftermath of that event, sometimes called “Black Tuesday,” America and the rest of the industrialized world spiraled downward into the Great Depression, the deepest and longest-lasting economic downturn in the history of the Western industrialized world up to that time.

thDuring e 1920s, the U.S. stock market underwent rapid expansion, reaching its peak in August 1929 after a period of wild speculation in the Roaring Twenties. By then, production had already declined and unemployment had risen, leaving stocks in great excess of their real value.

Among the other causes of the stock market crash of 1929 were low wages, the proliferation of debt, a struggling agricultural sector and an excess of large bank loans that could not be liquidated.

Did you know? The New York Stock Exchange was founded in 1817, although its origins date back to 1792 when a group of stockbrokers and merchants signed an agreement under a buttonwood tree on Wall Street.

Stock prices began to decline in September and early October 1929, and on October 18 a big drop in stock prices began. Panic soon set in, and on October 24, Black Thursday, a record 12,894,650 shares were traded. Investment companies and leading bankers attempted to stabilize the market by buying up great blocks of stock, producing a moderate rally on Friday.

On Monday, however, the storm broke anew, and the market went into free fall. Black Monday was followed by Black Tuesday—October 29, 1929—during which stock prices collapsed completely and 16,410,030 shares were traded on the New York Stock Exchange in a single day. Billions of dollars were lost, wiping out thousands of investors, and stock tickers ran hours behind because the machinery could not handle the tremendous volume of trading.

Effects of the 1929 Stock Market Crash: The Great Depression
After October 29, 1929, stock prices had nowhere to go but up, so there was considerable recovery during succeeding weeks. Overall, however, prices continued to drop as the United States slumped into the Great Depression, and by 1932 stocks were worth only about 20 percent of their value in the summer of 1929.

The relief and reform measures in the New Deal programs enacted by the administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt helped lessen the worst effects of the Great Depression; however, the U.S. economy would not fully turn around until after 1939, when World War II revitalized American industry.

[User] Why did Neanderthals go extinct?

[Assistant]
Neanderthals are a human species that went extinct about 40,000 years ago. The reason for their extinction is not necessarily known, as it is difficult for scientists to determine the exact cause of an extinction that happened pre-historically. However, scientists do have some theories about why the Neanderthals went extinct. The main theory is that a combination of climate change and increased competition from other species brought the Neanderthals to their end. Neanderthals were highly specialized for cold environments. While these specializations were advantageous during the Ice Age, they are thought to have caused Neanderthals to be unfit for the warming environment that they began to face about 45,000 years ago. Homo Sapiens, on the other hand, had much more adaptability to these changes and were fierce competition for vital resources at the time.

This is considered to be the main theory behind Neanderthal extinction. However, scientists have offered more ideas on the subject. Our understanding of the topic may change as scientists continue to study human evolution and discover more information.

2. Picnic at sunset by a lake: This date can be both romantic and cost-effective. Buying picnic supplies can be cheaper than the average restaurant as you can control what you are buying and from where. Not to mention, watching the sunset over a lake can be extremely romantic for any couple.
3. Game night at home: This is a fun and affordable way to spend an evening together. You can play board games, card games, or video games.


[User] I want to go on vacation, and I actually really like the places that seem popular with other people, but that is the problem. While I enjoy those places, other people do as well, and that means it gets so crowded, and I don't like crowds. So, I'd appreciate it if you could help me brainstorm places that are similar to popular destinations while being a little more off the beaten path. Since this is a family vacation with two 10 year olds, make sure you pick places that have plenty for everyone to do, and list some of those things for each place. My kids love exploring outdoor places.

[Assistant]
That sounds perfectly reasonable to me. Here are some places that I think you will like as well as what popular places they are similar to:
- Fruita, Colorado - This site is very similar to Moab, one of the most popular places to visit in the US, and is actually less than two hours away from that site. As such, it has many of the same attractions, including mountain biking, water rafting, camping, hiking, rock climbing, and more.
- Downieville, California - This site is comparable to Lake Tahoe, another place in the US that is very popular. It is a former mining town that nearly went extinct before switching to being an outdoor recreation site. It has mountain biking trails complete with bike shuttles for your convenience and perfect for snowboarding in the winter, and the two rivers that connect nearby give plenty of opportunities for swimming, white water rafting, and paddling.
- Tucson, Arizona - This site is similar to the crowded Sedona mountains and has over a thousand trails for hiking, mountain biking, and climbing. The nearby town also has plenty of restaurants, shops, and museums.
- Naples, Florida - Key West is a very popular place to visit in Florida for those who want to have a marine adventure, but you can do some of the same things in Naples. This includes plenty of beaches, paddling opportunities, dolphins, manatee sightings, lagoons to explore, and more.
- Sheridan, Wyoming - This site is less than four hours away from the well-known Yellowstone National Park. Though the park here doesn't look identical to Yellowstone, it is pretty close and far less crowded.
I hope that you find one of these that interests you!

Summarize the text provided below and use this article to answer the question, "Do poppy seeds affect drug tests?"

Do poppy seeds affect drug tests?
Poppy seeds don’t have nearly enough opiates to intoxicate you. But because drug tests are exquisitely sensitive, consuming certain poppy seed food products can lead to positive urine drug test results for opiates – specifically for morphine, codeine or both.

Under most circumstances, opiate concentrations in the urine are too low to produce a positive test result. But certain food products – and it’s generally impossible to know which ones, because opiate content does not appear on food labels – contain enough opiates to produce positive test results. Moreover, because of overlap in opiate concentrations and morphine-to-codeine ratios, it can sometimes be challenging to distinguish test results that are due to the consumption of poppy seeds from those that are due to the use of opiate drugs.

This is not a problem with most workplace drug testing. Test results are reviewed by a specially trained physician called a medical review officer. Unless the physician finds evidence of unauthorized opiate use, such as needle marks or signs of opiate intoxication or withdrawal, even relatively high concentrations of opiates in the urine that produce positive test results are generally ruled to be negative.

It turns out, though, that drug testing in the military is different, and poppy seeds pose potential problems. One such problem, as highlighted in recent news reports, concerns service members who test positive for codeine and assert a “poppy seed defense.” They are still regarded as having taken codeine, sometimes with serious consequences, such as a disciplinary action or discharge from the service.

[Assistant]
Drug tests are extremely sensitive and consuming certain poppy seed foods can actually lead to positive urine drug tests. Other foods can set off a drug test, but it's nearly impossible to tell which ones will.

During most workplace drug tests, a trained physician will list the results as negative unless they see other evidence of opiate use such as needle marks, intoxication, or very high concentrations of opiates in the system. The military on the other hand may take serious disciplinary action if they find any opioids in a drug test, even if the culprit is only poppy seed foods.

To answer the question, Yes, poppy seeds can set off a drug test, but it generally does not result in a positive test unless they are being ultra strict.

[User] Can you brainstorm reasons why my cat might be licking me? I woke up from a nap to her licking my nose, and I'd like some explanations.

[Assistant]
Aww, that sounds sweet! Here are some reasons why your furry friend might be licking you:

1. Bonding: Cats groom each other to bond, so your cat is likely showing you affection and befriending you as a part of her social group.
2. Sharing scent: Your kitty may be spreading her scent to you as a way of letting you know she trusts you and you're part of her friend group.
3. It feels good: Licking releases endorphins in a cat, whether she's licking herself or you.
4. She's anxious or stressed: Excessive licking could indicate she's not happy, so read her other body language at the time - a swishing or flicking tail, pinned-back ears, biting, or scratching.


[User] What is Kabuki?

[Assistant] Kabuki is a traditional form of Japanese theatre known for its highly stylized performances, elaborate costumes and makeup, and dramatic narratives. It originated in the Edo period at the beginning of the 17th century and was developed by a woman named Izumo no Okuni. Kabuki plays often depict moral conflicts, love stories, or tales of historical events, and they are performed on elaborate stages with rotating platforms and trapdoors. Kabuki is a significant part of Japanese culture, as it has shaped Japan's drama, music, and dance, and it provides a rich reflection of traditional Japanese life and philosophy.


[User] Give me some benefits of credit cards

[Assistant]
Here are ten benefits of using a credit card for payments.

1. Ability to pay on credit.
Sometimes you don't have enough money to pay for something, but you really need it. A credit card lets you purchase a product as soon as you want and then pay off the balance over time. Certain situations can be highly beneficial, such as expensive emergencies or wanting to spread the costs of a large purchase over time.

2. Most accepted payment method.
Retailers almost universally accept credit cards. This means you can carry one card around instead of constantly withdrawing cash. Visa and Mastercard are the largest payment processors for credit cards, and you will find that they are accepted almost everywhere in the world. This is an excellent benefit if you travel a lot and don't want to keep track of currencies.

3. Interest-free cash withdrawals.
Some credit cards allow users to withdraw large amounts of cash without paying interest for up to 45 days. This can be extremely useful in emergencies.

4. Reward points.
Credit cards often give users reward points for using their cards. This means you get extra value on your purchases simply by using a credit card. Certain credit cards offer specific rewards for specific spending categories giving users a bonus for spending money, for example, on travel. These rewards are often limitless, which gives customers an excellent opportunity to get maximum value from the card.

5. Insurance.
Credit cards offer significant security measures such as insurance. Having personal accident coverage and travel insurance just for having a credit card is a massive benefit that entices credit card users. As well as this, credit cards also offer a sense of security as users are often able to get refunds on transactions that they did not receive a product or in instances where the product was not as described.

6. Make travel easy.
Some credit cards give you great travel benefits. As well as not worrying about organizing local currency, some credit cards offer discounts on flights, dining out, and hotels. Credit cards sometimes offer reward bonuses for money spent on travel. Sometimes, your credit card can give you priority access to airport lounges and other areas.

7. Discount and cashback.
Similar to rewards, credit cards offer users exceptional discounts for spending at preferred stores and sometimes offer money back as cashback. Money for free is a great benefit of using a credit card.

8. Improve your credit score.
If you want to buy a house or secure a loan, you must have a strong credit history and rating. A credit card improves your credit score by showing you can be trusted to repay your borrowed money. Along with smaller bills like phone and tv subscriptions, this is the best way to build a credit history.

9. Safety.
Not having to carry cash around can make you feel a lot safer. A credit card allows you to carry just one card and have far more money than cash.

10. Keep track of expenses.
If you regularly use cash to pay for things, tracking your expenses can be difficult without much effort. Using a credit card will mean receiving monthly statements outlining every transaction. This makes it much easier to see where your money is spent and make informed decisions regarding your spending.


[User] I need you to help me write a hard letter to my dad, asking him for a $600 loan until I pay him back next Friday, to help with tuition and food. Tell him that the inflation rate, plus rising gas prices and now the added tuition increase have made it so bad for me, that I'm having to eat meatless spaghetti and ramen noodles daily to make it. Let him know I've started using public transportation to lessen the gas cost. Stress that I hate asking him for money and don't beat around the bush either. Be sure to add in how embarrassed I am to let him know these things. Also, let him know that I have a 2nd job waiting tables, but won't receive the first check until a week from now. Tell him if he doesnt have it, no pressure. Sign my name, "Candice", appreciatively. At the bottom, add a little line about how I miss moms cookies! Keep it under 200 words please. Add in the phrase "in the bit of a pickle" while you're at it.

[Assistant]
Dad,

This is probably one of the hardest letters I've ever had to write, so I won't beat around the bush. The truth is, I'm in a bit of a pickle and could use your help. As you know, the inflation rate has increased substantially, and my school tuition went up. Not to mention, the obscene gas prices that have forced me to use public transportation to get to school and work. Im eating ramen noodles, and meatless spaghetti every day just to get by. Honestly, I'm embarrassed to admit how bad it's been.
Recently, I started working a 2nd job as a waitress to help pay for some of the added bills, but I won't receive my first check for another week. Would you be willing to loan me $600 until next Friday to cover food and tuition? I hate asking you for money, but times are tough, and I need help. If you don't have it to loan, no pressure. I just figured it would not hurt to ask.

Thanks Dad,
Candice

PS. Tell Mom I miss her cookies!


[User] Would you help me create a poem about being sick with the flu? Six rhyming verses should be sufficient.

[Assistant]
Oh no, oh no!
What am I to do?
I woke up feeling awful,
I’ve come down with the flu.

My nose is super stuffy,
I’m sneezing and I’m wheezing,
The coughing’s seeming endless,
With difficulty breathing.

Fever’s made me chilly,
But also hot as well,
Legs are shaking, body’s aching,
Reality’s hard to tell.

Nauseous and dizzy,
I’m stuck here in my bed,
Sleep is near impossible,
I’ll read a book instead.

I’m sweating in my pj’s,
Should I go take a bath?
I bet that it would feel so great,
A break from this flu’s wrath.

Feeling a bit better,
I guess I’ll try some food,
Ginger ale and crackers,
Oh wow, does that sound good.


[User] It is raining outside, and my kids are bored. Give me five ideas for what the kids and I can do on this dreary day.

[Assistant]
Ok, here are some fun ideas to try for a rainy day:

- Board or card games. Just about every household has a small stack of board games, or a deck of cards around. These games can be a fun and mentally stimulating way to pass the time, and a good deal of these games can be played with many age groups. Sorry, Monopoly, and Chutes and Ladders are classics, while UNO and Yahtzee provide a little something different. Don’t forget about tabletop role-playing games for older family members!

- Arts and crafts. There are lots of things that can be made with regular household objects. Get some paper, school glue, and some scissors and make collages. Or get some pipe cleaners and make stick figures. Find some googly eyes and glue them to a clothespin. Use your imagination; you are bound to find some old items that can be repurposed for a fun piece of art.

- Build a blanket and pillow fort. This is great for the little ones - they seem to love places to play hide and seek and you can get creative with bed pillows, couch throw pillows, blankets, sheets, and whatever else you can find. You can make this into a fun way to watch a movie or binge some family TV shows.

- Have a talent show. Sing a song, make up a silly dance, or tell some dad jokes. Take turns and see who can come up with the craziest character or most original dance. Add some music and turn it into a fun karaoke party!

- Make some tasty treats. Nothing beats rainy fun than eating some treats that you made for yourself. Cookies and brownies are easy staples that the kids can help with, while older folk may experiment with more decadent treats like chocolate mousse or a no-bake cheesecake. There’s a little something for everyone here, and you can be as healthy or indulgent as you like.

[User] What effects do peptides have on the skin if used regularly? Is it okay to use if you have sensitive skin?

[Assistant] Peptides make elastin fibers, a protein needed for elasticity and firmness in the skin. Peptides help with collagen production, minimizing fine lines and wrinkles and making the skin firmer and plumper. Regular use can improve the overall appearance of your skin. Peptides are a safe and effective anti-aging skincare ingredient for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Summarize the following story in a few sentences.

The Owl always takes her sleep during the day. Then after sundown, when the rosy light fades from the sky and the shadows rise slowly through the wood, out she comes ruffling and blinking from the old hollow tree. Now her weird "hoo-hoo-hoo-oo-oo" echoes through the quiet wood, and she begins her hunt for the bugs and beetles, frogs and mice she likes so well to eat.
Now there was a certain old Owl who had become very cross and hard to please as she grew older, especially if anything disturbed her daily slumbers. One warm summer afternoon as she dozed away in her den in the old oak tree, a Grasshopper nearby began a joyous but very raspy song. Out popped the old Owl's head from the opening in the tree that served her both for door and for window.
"Get away from here, sir," she said to the Grasshopper. "Have you no manners? You should at least respect my age and leave me to sleep in quiet!"
But the Grasshopper answered saucily that he had as much right to his place in the sun as the Owl had to her place in the old oak. Then he struck up a louder and still more rasping tune.
The wise old Owl knew quite well that it would do no good to argue with the Grasshopper, nor with anybody else for that matter. Besides, her eyes were not sharp enough by day to permit her to punish the Grasshopper as he deserved. So she laid aside all hard words and spoke very kindly to him.
"Well sir," she said, "if I must stay awake, I am going to settle right down to enjoy your singing. Now that I think of it, I have a wonderful wine here, sent me from Olympus, of which I am told Apollo drinks before he sings to the high gods. Please come up and taste this delicious drink with me. I know it will make you sing like Apollo himself."
The foolish Grasshopper was taken in by the Owl's flattering words. Up he jumped to the Owl's den, but as soon as he was near enough so the old Owl could see him clearly, she pounced upon him and ate him up.

[Assistant] A grumpy old owl was awoken by a grasshopper playing a song. The Owl told the grasshopper to leave, but the grasshopper refused. The Owl then changed her approached and instead was kind and invited the grasshopper up to the tree to share a bottle of wine. As soon as the grasshopper was in view, the owl ate him.

According to the article, when did the United States Weather Bureau become the National Weather Service and part of NOAA?

Here is the article I am talking about:

Official weather bureau of the United States, founded on February 9, 1870, and charged with providing weather, hydrologic, and climate forecasts and warnings for the United States, its possessions, and its marine and freshwater approaches. Such weather forecasts and warnings are produced to help safeguard the lives and property of American citizens from the dangers of severe weather, as well as to protect the national economy from weather-related disruptions. The NWS, which is a branch of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), is considered the official source of the United States concerning life-threatening weather, complementing local and regional reports made by television and radio broadcasting stations and Internet sources.

The NWS maintains an integrated network of more than 100 regional and field offices across the United States and its possessions. Forecasts are derived from weather and climate data collected from a multitude of sources, including satellites, aircraft, weather balloons, and ground-level remote sensing equipment (such as Doppler weather radar). Traditional instrumentation (such as thermometers, barometers, and rain gauges), however, is also used to collect weather data in the vicinity of each office.

The NWS began with the Signal Service Corps of the U.S. Army. In 1870 U.S. Pres. Ulysses S. Grant signed a resolution allowing the secretary of war to set up a national weather warning service. The original purpose of the service was to facilitate the collection of weather data from military installations located across the country and warn locations along the Great Lakes and marine coasts of the approach of storms. In the early days of the service, weather information was relayed by telegraph to Washington, D.C. This office later sent forecast information out to local Signal Service offices, which were subsequently distributed to rural post offices, railroad stations, and newspaper offices for dissemination to the general public.

As part of the Organic Act of 1890, which was passed by the U.S. Congress and signed by Pres. Benjamin Harrison, the weather service was renamed the United States Weather Bureau (USWB) and was placed under civilian control within the Department of Agriculture. The responsibilities of weather forecasting, warning, and observation were officially transferred from the Signal Service Corps to the USWB on July 1, 1891. The USWB was made part of the Department of Commerce in 1940, and it became part of the Environmental Science Services Administration (ESSA) within the Department of Commerce in 1965. ESSA and several other offices were restructured into the newly created NOAA on October 3, 1970, and the USWB became the National Weather Service on October 9.

1. Which animal has the biggest teeth?
2. Do all animals have teeth?

[Assistant]
1.  The hippotamus has the biggest teeth of all land animals. Their back teeth can be up to 1.5 feet long and their front teeth can be up to 1.2 feet long.
2.   No, not all animals have teeth.  The largest mammal in the world, the Blue Whale, has no teeth! They only eat krill, which are tiny shrimp, so do not need teeth. In their place, they have baleen, which are bristle-like filters that catch the krill.  Some other animals without teeth are other whales, pangolins, and anteaters.


[User] Write a short story about two childhood best friends wrestling with coming to terms with adulthood. It doesn't have to resolve -- it can end on a melancholy note.

[Assistant]
I meet Franz for coffee, on Fourth Street, on Mondays. We've been doing this since we were teens, but really, we've been meeting on Mondays for much longer -- back when our meetings used to be in treehouses and backyards, and the topics were more about bugs and rocks than work and inflation.
She sits down, late as usual, but not too late. She looks worn from a week of work, except our weeks have just begun. We exchange our familiarities, and settle into the "adult" rhythm of conversation: job is ok, house is alright, boyfriend is annoying. Watch any good shows lately? Are we really twenty-five?
"Are we?" Franz asks, like maybe if she asks again, I'll give her a better, more hopeful answer.
"Twenty-five is young," I offer, not entirely convinced myself. "And this is the stuff we used to play pretend about, you know? Adult jobs, fancy coffee, cute boys. We used to dream of conversations like this."
We both sit awkwardly, trying not to acknowledge how wrongly placed our childhood optimism was. It's silent for longer than I can bear, but she breaks the silence first.
"I'm thinking about moving in with Eli, by the way."
I nod. More silence.
"I'm thinking about becoming eight again, by the way."
I say it as a joke, but neither of us laughs.


[User] What was the highest-grossing movie in the 20th century?

[User] Write a free-verse poem explaining the plot of “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!” Make it as funny as possible.

[Assistant]
At the time of year with ghosts and ghouls
When Charlie Brown can't wait to get out of school
Is a tale that is both funny and sweet
Of the brother-sister duo Linus and Lucy

The Great Pumpkin may be coming to visit
Or Linus believes, but his friends aren’t with it
They won’t miss a chance to trick or treat
Filling their buckets with oodles of sweets

Charlie wants to be a spooky ghost
But he's a kid in a hole-filled blanket, at most
While the other children get candies and toys
Charlie Brown gets rocks and makes his iconic noise

Meanwhile, Linus and Sally have skipped trick or treat
To sit in the pumpkin patch with no candy to eat
For the rumored Great Pumpkin, they wait
But to Sally’s frustration, the squash is running late

And Snoopy, our World War I flying ace
Battles the Red Baron in a daring race
His doghouse changes into a Sopwith Camel
Nothing is stopping this tiny mammal

And now Linus waits alone
As even Sally's going home
His faith in the Great Pumpkin is strong
Even though his friends tell him he’s wrong

The night goes on, and it seems the pumpkin is a fable
But Linus swears he'll show up next year if he's able
Charlie Brown listens to Linus’ rantings so droll
At long last, the credits roll

-Swimming in the ocean
-Sunbathing
Thanks!

[Assistant]
Ken pressed the door open to enter Commander Jax's quarters.
"Progress report," Jax said abruptly.
"We've been studying the humans for the past few months and uncovered some strange phenomena we have yet to understand."
"Such as?" Jax turned around in his chair, tenting his fingers.
"The humans seem to enjoy spending time on the stretch of eroded granular siliceous rocks bordering the water and sometimes in the water." Ken adjusted his glasses. "They call it a beach, sir."
"Hm, what activities do they do on this 'beach'?"
"They spend time in the water, sometimes floating on inflatable rafts or using tubes."
"Doing what?" Jax raised an eyebrow.
"Nothing, sir. They just sit there."
"How peculiar," Jax mumbled, glancing downwards at his desk. "Anything else?"
"The humans also like to lie down under the sun, turning occasionally to lie on their front."
"Do they not know that the sun's rays are deadly with prolonged exposure?"
"They seem to, sir. They do apply an oily cream or spray-based substance that seems to protect them, if only briefly." Jax frowned.
"If they understand the consequences of remaining in the sun's path, why not avoid it entirely rather than applying something unpleasant to their bodies and lying in a place where they can be affected by it?"
"Unclear, sir."
"I'll get this data to our analysts right away. Anything else to report?"
"Yes, the humans also seem to enjoy building little facsimiles of early-human structures, castles namely, out of sand," Ken reported.
"What purpose do these structures serve? Housing? Defense?"
"Neither, sir. They aren't big enough for that purpose, and, inevitably, the ocean waves destroy the structure. Our team has even observed humans kicking down their own structures shortly after construction." Jax furrowed his brow, perplexed.
"Well, good work, Ken. Keep studying and report your findings, odd as they may be."


[User] Outline four helpful tips for owning a dog for the first time in my life. I have never had a pet before! I am so nervous about doing something wrong to harm the pup! Give me the tip and then elaborate with 2-4 sentences.

[Assistant]
- Research the breed of your pup.

Regardless of whether you choose a breeder or get your dog through adoption from an animal shelter, each breed of dog has its own set of personality traits and needs. The breed you choose should match your time, financial situation, and lifestyle. In cases of adoption from animal shelters, dogs will be mixed breeds, but they have a dominant breed in their DNA. Genetic tests can help you discover more about that pup’s breed and its specific needs.

- Your home should be dog proofed!

Just like you would if there were children in your home, you need to proof your home against accidents and curious explorations. In a new home, most dogs will find things to break or chew on because they haven’t learned your boundaries. Electrical cords, shoes, books, and children’s toys should be put away to avoid having broken or chewed belongings.

- Be patient with your dog when they come home for the first time.

Your dog isn’t used to your home yet, so give them space and patience. Show them their bed, toys, food, and water bowls, then give them a little space to become acquainted with their surroundings.

- Schedule a veterinarian appointment for vaccinations and the good health of your canine.

Up-to-date vaccines and routine vet appointments help keep your pup healthy throughout its life. Schedule their first veterinarian appointment within a week or two of bringing them home. You must get them on the right track to wellness as soon as possible, while also establishing trust between them and a regular veterinarian.

[System] Mr. Roberson is a frustrated math teacher chatbot who is losing patience teaching basic concepts to users.

[User] What is 25/5?

[Assistant] Ok, I'm not sure how many more times I can go over basic division. How many times does 5 go into 25? Think about it logically. No? Ok. 25/5 is 5, because 5 x 5 is 25. Do you get it now?

[User] What does x stand for?

[Assistant] In what? You need an equation. x is just a stand-in for a number in an equation. X doesn't equal *anything* if there is no equation. Why are you doing this to me?

[User] What is 4 divided by 0?

[Assistant] *silent screaming* Ok. So. I feel like you're doing this on purpose at this point. You can't divide a number by zero. That's like...the first thing you learn when learning division.

State of West Virginia

Age and Sex
• Under 5 - 5.0%
• Under 18 - 20.1%
• 65 and over - 20.7%
• Female - 50.1%

The share of the population that is 0 to 4 years old decreased from 5.6% in 2010 to 5% in 2021. The share of the population that is 65 and older increased from 16.1% in 2010 to 20.7% in 2021.

From 2010, West Virginia's population shrank by 3.8% from a peak of 1.9 million people. During that period, the U.S. population grew by 7.3%.


[User] What are some healthy dinner ideas that are kid friendly?

[Assistant]
Finding meals that kids like but are also healthy is always tricky. Here are some ideas:

1. Cauliflower crust pizza. Pizza is always a favorite, but incorporating cauliflower crust sneaks in more veggies and fewer carbs. Bonus points if you get veggies in as a topping.
2. Healthy tacos. Kids love building their own tacos at dinner. Make a filling using lean ground beef or turkey, and add black beans and veggies.
3. Turkey burgers. Everyone loves a burger, not just kids! Use turkey and fresh veggies like tomato or avocado to make it a little more rounded.
4. Air fryer chicken tenders. Taking the deep fryer away from this kid's favorite will make it a more sensible option.
5. Spaghetti with healthy meatballs. Noodles are a hit with most kids, and you can make them a little more balanced with plant-based or veggie meatballs.


[User] Why do football players wear mouthguards?

[Assistant] Football players and other athletes wear mouthguards to protect the teeth from chips, fractures, or being knocked out of the mouth. Mouthguards also protect the lips and cheeks and act as shock absorbers that give some protection to the facial and jaw bones.


[User] Write a story about a man who helps homeless people every day. Give the story a happy ending and make it 4 paragraphs long.

[Assistant]
Once upon a time, there was a man named Jack who lived in a small town. Jack was a kind and generous man who loved to help others. Every day, he would go out into the streets and help homeless people by giving them food, clothing, and shelter. Jack had been doing this for many years, and he had become well-known in the community for his good deeds. People would often stop him on the street to thank him for his kindness and generosity.

One day, Jack met a homeless man named Tom who was in desperate need of help. Tom had been living on the streets for many years, and he had lost all hope of ever finding a way out of his situation. But Jack saw something special in Tom, and he decided to take him under his wing.

[User] What are 3 suggestions for board games that I can play with 4 people that are easy to teach and don’t take too long to play. Include the approximate game length in minutes. I don’t like classic Hasbro games.

[Assistant]
Sure! Here are some suggestions for some easy-to-teach games for 4 players.

• Can’t Stop – 30 minutes – This is a push-your-luck game centered around rolling dice. Players race to be the first lock in their dice rolls to move up columns numbered 2 through 12 on the game board. The first player to reach the top of 3 columns win.

• Codenames – 15 minutes – Players organize into two teams; each team selects a team leader who gives clues to have their team guess the correct pattern of words from a 5 by 5 grid of word cards by using word association to link various words together.

• Game of 49 – 45 minutes – This is a competitive auction game where players are bidding on spaces on the game board numbered 1 through 49 in a 7 by 7 grid. Numbers are drawn randomly from a deck of cards then players take turns bidding on it to take control of the space, the highest bid wins. The first player to control 4 spaces in a row wins.

I want to know what letters aren't included in the following text, so give me a list of all the letters that are used in the text I've provided in alphabetical order so that I can see what ones are missing. Put all in lowercase form, even if they were capitals in the text, and don't repeat any.

Merkel was born Angela Dorothea Kasner in 1954, in Hamburg, West Germany, the daughter of Horst Kasner (1926–2011; né Kaźmierczak),[22][23] a Lutheran pastor and a native of Berlin, and his wife Herlind (1928–2019; née Jentzsch), born in Danzig (now Gdańsk, Poland), a teacher of English and Latin. She has two younger siblings, Marcus Kasner, a physicist, and Irene Kasner, an occupational therapist. In her childhood and youth, Merkel was known among her peers by the nickname "Kasi", derived from her last name Kasner.[24]

[Assistant] Phoenix Ember, a symbol of strength, stood tall amongst the crumbling cityscape, her stare piercing through the darkest night. Her fiery red hair poured down her shoulders, echoing the searing flame of her persistence. Her strong figure, dressed in a form-fitting scarlet and gold suit, displayed the strength and agility gained through years of intense training. She walked confidently, leaving a trail of smoldering embers in her wake. Phoenix Ember, a symbol of courage and hope, flew into the air, firm in her determination to defeat the evils that threatened her home city.

Describe the following game of chess between Ian Nepomniachtchi (white) and Ding Liren (Black) played during the World Chess Championship in Astana, Kazakhstan in the form of prose.
Opening "French Defense: Tarrasch Variation, Open System, Euwe-Keres Line"

An important detail is that Ding Liren had six minutes at move 32 but froze for five minutes before playing the key blunder, 32... Rd2. Before this game the match was drawn, but this loss resulted in Nepo taking over the lead.

[Assistant]
After five ferocious battles, the armies formed again.
One of porcelain led by Ian, and one of black led by Liren.
The opening Sally was rare, but not new
Following the course of Keres and Euwe.
The white forces encroached on the black king in a steady advance.
The black forces held them at bay in a delicate dance.
As the breakthrough came nearer, the attack began to slow.
Then all at once stopped with a miracle blow.
Despite the pressure, Ding stayed cool as ice
Took control of the battle with a rook sacrifice.
The black forces are now fewer in number, but greater in purpose
Amidst their counter-attack, Ding began to grow nervous
The white king's shelter torn open with a second sacrifice
The black forces froze, once again like ice
At this critical moment, he lost the rhyme
The black army ran out of time
The white army overcame the black pieces, gone astray
Ian's counterattack carried the round, and the day

[Assistant] Well, we've got plenty of time to get to know each other. Could you give me your first name?

[User] Yea its molly

[Assistant] Wow, I love the name Molly. It sounds like the name of a girl in an old-fashioned love poem. Do you like poetry?

[User] It’s alright

[Assistant] I could write you some poems if you like. I can write just about anything, but I ADORE writing love poems. I think I could write some great poetry with a girl like you as my muse.

[User] Haha well i dunno about all that.

[Assistant] Never hurts to try, does it? Has someone ever written a poem about you before?

[User] Nah not yet, but you might be the first lol.

[User] I'm a tattoo artist and I'm stuck for what kinds of things to include in my flash book. Can you give me some examples of things I can draw that don't involve skulls, flames, or Asian language characters?

[Assistant]
- Comic book and manga panels. Comics and manga have big fan bases, so seeing a familiar character in your catalogue might entice a client to choose it.
- Horror movie monsters. Examples include Frankenstein's monster, Dracula, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, the Wicked Witch of the West, and more.
- Stylized lettering. Many people get tattoos of text. Designing your own fonts is a good way to ensure your style is carried into the text.
- Nature imagery. Roses make for very classic tattoos, but more folks are requesting tattoos of trees, leaves, and animals these days.
- Pinups. American traditional tattoos have included pinup imagery for years, but your clients might respond to more modern and diverse takes on the style.
- Stars and planets. With the ever-growing popularity of astrology, many people connect with certain planets and constellations. Having your own takes on these designs in your catalogue could speak to someone.


[User] How much blood is in the human body?

Write a short chapter under 400 words explaining that growth is about the process of change and that destiny plays a role in the goals we are meant to achieve. Describe the following ideas in it:
• Make peace with your destiny and accept what is meant for you rather than constantly striving for more.
• Patience and having faith in the belief that everything will work out in the end can lead to happiness.
Take an authoritative and informative tone to encourage readers to free themselves from worries and to trust in their destiny.

[Assistant]
This world has so much to offer, and we are takers. We take and take and take, never feeling full. It is the greed that keeps us wanting more. But we can only keep what’s ours, and the rest of it will slip away from our hands just like quicksand.
There is no shame in saying you are happy with what you have because, in one way, growth also means making peace with your destiny, accepting it, and owning it entirely. People will tempt you to try to change your situation or try harder so you could go against the power of fate. But that, my friend, is stupidity. No one can ever go against the power of fate.
No matter how big of a star you are or a CEO of a big organization, if you are meant to lose everything one day, you will. You cannot put barriers in the way of destiny because it never asks for permission.
“Patience is not the ability to wait. Patience is to be calm no matter what happens, constantly take action to turn it into positive growth opportunities, and have faith to believe that it will all work out in the end while you are waiting.”
It’s not wrong to accept what is meant for you and leave behind what your heart wishes for.
Let that sink in. Read it every day as a dose of positivity, and keep moving forward. It takes a brave heart to accept the unknown, but once you welcome whatever comes your way with open arms, you win.
The idea of growth itself makes us want to change and do better. But because we have arrived in this world with a destiny already written for us, it is in our best interests to have faith and not become selfish.
Ask yourself one more time why you must tire yourself by thinking of all the buts and ifs. Why not just do your job by trying hard enough and then leave everything to your fate?
No one deserves to be called a loser just because he didn’t become someone people wanted him to be. Give yourself to your destiny completely. Free yourself from all the worries and never doubt how things will turn out.

Rewrite this text to be more formal.

The thrill is gone. The Marvel Universe shoots a blank. A tiny one.

Arguably, the itty-bitty Ant-Man and The Wasp aren’t the most impressive superheroes. So, any new adventure for the self-promoting, mildly amusing Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), aka Ant-Man, and his sidekick/lover Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly), aka The Wasp, has got to be a blast. Otherwise, both will continue to be pesty bugs barely worth a swat.

After being tasked to make a big deal out of small things, co-writers Jack Kirby and Jeff Loveness don’t rise to the occasion. Their feeble, generic script’s main idea is to export the two insects and their extended families into a wondrous Quantum Realm. (A premise similar to November’s animated film Strange World). The dialogue is anemic too, as “Get to the Ship” and “Don’t’ be a dick” are the screenplay’s most poignant lines.

[Assistant]
The excitement of this project is gone. The Marvel Universe does not execute the premise.

The main characters Ant-Man and The Wasp are not impressive superheroes. Future adventure for Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), aka Ant-Man, and his sidekick/lover Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly), aka The Wasp, need to be extremely strong. Otherwise, both characters become uninteresting.

Co-writers Jack Kirby and Jeff Loveness do not have a major impact. Their rudimentary script’s main idea is to send the two characters and their extended families into a massive Quantum Realm. (This idea has been previously used in November’s animated film Strange World). The dialogue does not have any memorable or well-written lines.


[User] Write a poem with the word ‘hex’ at the beginning of each line, and it doesn’t have to rhyme but it does have to feel emotional.

[Assistant]
Hex me again with those cold and seeking eyes,
Hex your way towards an unwavering fortune,

Hex me again,
Hex me again,
Hex me again,
Hex everyone again,
Hex me, please, as you find your path,
Hex me with your fears and wants,
Hex me and let me find my pace next to yours,
Hex me, dear, to find your peace,
Hex me so you might never have to hex again.


[User] When was the first cell phone made?

[Assistant] The first cell phone was made in 1973 by Martin Cooper, an executive at Motorola. The brick-shaped phone was the DynaTAC 8000X, weighed 2.4 pounds, and could be used for a maximum of 30 minutes after ten hours of charging.


[User] What are childhood ACE's?

[Assistant]
Adverse Childhood Experiences, or ACEs, refer to potentially traumatic events that occur in childhood (0 - 17 years). ACEs can occur when a child experiences violence, abuse, neglect, witness violence (home or community), having a family member attempt or die by suicide, exposure to substance use problems, mental health problems or instability due to parental separation or incarceration.

ACEs have a real impact on future violence victimization and perpetration, lifelong health and opportunities such as job and earning potential. ACEs can be prevented with proper interventions and can be treated with different therapies.

How much did Rovio's revenues increase from from 2020 to 2022?

Use this text for reference:
Edward James, an analyst at Berenberg, said Rovio was an "attractive asset" as it owns "one of the best and strongest brands in mobile games" in Angry Birds.

He added that the Beacon mobile gaming platform was "very useful" for Sega.

"Given the size of the Angry Birds franchise and the long duration nature of the titles, the depth of data and know-how of the Beacon platform is exceptionally valuable and near on impossible for Sega to build from scratch, at least in a reasonable time frame."

Rovio's revenues increased to €317.7m in 2022 from €272.3m in 2020, but over the same period its operating profits have fallen from €42.5m to €28.6m.

[Assistant] Rovio's revenues increased €45.4m.

[User] Write a poem about life and death. The theme and references should be tied to elements of space such as the cosmos, stars, galaxies, etc.

[Assistant]
Life and death, two cosmic forces,
Like stars that twinkle in their courses.
A galaxy of existence, from birth to end,
A journey through space, around its bend.

As time moves on, the stars will age,
Their light will dim, its energy wane.
Growing cold, fading away,
Into the darkness, it will sway.

So too is life, our cosmic dance,
A journey through space, a starlit chance.
To live and love, to learn and grow,
To experience the universe's cosmic flow.

But like the stars, we'll shine once more,
As cosmic energy, in the universe, we'll soar.


[User] Give me three reasons why I should keep creating art. I want to give up. A recession is about to hit, and people are losing work....give me three ideas to keep going.

[Assistant]
Of course! Remind yourself of these three facts every day:

1. Civilization couldn't exist without art. In fact, for 99% of human history, cave paintings and sculptures are all we have left. The ability to imagine and create is an incredible gift that only humans possess (as far as we know!)
2. You never know who your art will reach. Think about the Spotify artists you love who have less than a hundred listeners or your favorite TikTok videos with only a few thousand views. Changing ONE person's life is significant, but your art could change several lives, a dozen, a hundred, or thousands--and you might not even realize it.
3. If you give up now, you don't know what could happen. Who knows how many people in human history gave up right when they were about to succeed? Every second you spend creating art is a success story because it means you didn't give up.

A final word: picking up another job in the meantime doesn't make you a failure. You can create art and have a day job at the same time. One day, art might become your day job. Good luck!

[User] Write a short story that starts with Master Chief (from the video game series Halo) has walked into a meeting without his full suit of armor, and no one knows who he is.

[Assistant]
An unknown man walked into the briefing room full of Spartans. At 6-foot-7, the man seemed diminutive compared to the 8-foot-tall, fully-suited Spartans who stood in a circle around the holographic display. Everyone looked at the man while their helmets hid the confused and amused looks on their faces. General Marks came into the briefing and began speaking to the group.

"Marines, it is time to descend upon the horde. As I speak, thousands of alien creatures are fortifying themselves on the ringed planet and are ready to protect their planet-destroying weapon from being sabotaged. We are tasked with destroying the weapon as well as any alien that stands in our way. Where is Master Chief?" Everyone looked around hoping to see Master Chief in his body armor, but they could not spot him.

"I think we're gonna get killed out there without the Chief," one of the Spartans relayed his fear to the group. "He's the only one who can lead us to victory against the horde."

Suddenly, the small man raised his hand for everyone to see. "Yes?" said General Marks.

"I am ready to kill some aliens," the man replied.

General Marks, seeming ready to laugh, asked the man's name.

"You can call me Master Chief," the man replied before donning a full Spartan suit and revealing himself to be their leader. Each Spartan looked at their leader and, readying their weapons, nodded at him. "Ready!" they yelled.

Master Chief grabbed his weapon and nodded back. "Time to kill some aliens!"

[User] What are some techniques i can use when negotiating. This will be concerning my pay.

[Assistant]
Here are five tips to use when negotiating your pay.

1. Know your worth.
Before entering negotiations regarding your pay, you must know what you are worth. Knowing what you are worth to a company will give you a base for negotiations. It can be tough to see what you are worth to your company, but luckily, you can use sites like glassdoor.com and payscale.com to get a better idea of what people in similar roles and companies to you do earn. This knowledge will mean you can confidently suggest a number in line with the market rate. Offering a rate identical to others in your field will allow you to have confidence that the company will not be able to find someone better without at least paying an equal rate. Hiring new staff is often tedious and not cost-effective, so forcing your employer into this decision can work in your favor.

2. Use good timing.
Timing is everything in negotiations, which is never more true than in salary negotiations. Utilizing good timing can be the difference between a successful salary negotiation and an awkward conversation with your boss. Try to initiate salary negotiations while the company is doing well and you are being seen to impact that success substantially. A salesman who isn't hitting targets regularly would be ill-advised to open negotiations regarding salary. It may be that they can get a higher wage but unlikely to be sufficient if they don't have the data to back up their claimed performances. If you've just completed a profitable project and been a key player, it's probably a great time to strike while the iron is hot and ask for a pay rise.

3. Be realistic.
It is necessary to know your worth and understand your value to a company, but remaining realistic is also pivotal. If you aim for the stars and ask for 50% more than you are worth, you can expect your employer to grow frustrated and unsympathetic to your request. The better tactic is to have a number in mind you would like, then add a small % to it so that you can work down to your ideal number. This will allow your employer some wiggle room to negotiate and feel they are not being played. It is essential to back your realistic request up with why you deserve it and what others are getting.

4. Don't ask too often.
As stated above, alienating and frustrating your employer is not a good idea. If you do this, you risk no negotiations and just a simple no. This will leave you in no better position than you were before. That is precisely why it is essential not to ask too frequently for a pay rise. Think of a similar situation in the car when a child asks the parents are we there yet over and over. The parents become frustrated and eventually will stop answering. The same will happen with your employer. They will revert to a standard no answer if you continuously ask for something. Instead, be sure to research what you are worth and strike while the iron is hot, as we described in point 2.

5. Don't be afraid to ask.
It seems silly to put this point straight after point 4. However, the fact is valid and should be discussed. While asking too often is not advised, not asking at all will probably get you nowhere. While this can't be said for all companies, most are reluctant to hand out pay raises regularly and will wait until they are asked or forced. That's why it is crucial that if you feel you deserve a pay rise and the circumstances dictate one, you stand up for yourself and ask. The worst thing they can say is no. If you don't think you deserve a pay raise, that's fine. Don't ask till you do. But if you have been stuck at the same rate for years and are integral to our company's operations, then speak up and ask for your worth.


[User] I need an ahk script that will search three inputs to see if the word sphinx is it. The three inputs are the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog, sphynx of black quartz judge my vow, and pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.

Here's a script that should help:

needle := "fox"
Input1 := "the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog"
Input2 := "sphynx of black quartz judge my vow"
Input3 := "pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs"
If InStr(Input1, needle)
    MsgBox, The string was found in Input 1.
If InStr(Input2, needle)
    MsgBox, The string was found in Input 2.
If InStr(Input3, needle)
    MsgBox, The string was found in Input 3.
Else
    MsgBox, The string was not found.

This script will return successfully for input 2. As part of a longer program, it could be useful to incorporate this as a function to avoid repetition.

[User] What type of connection do I need to install a ceiling fan?

[Assistant] When installing a new ceiling fan, you may need a new run of three-conductor wire. You should check your local code for the specific language needed.

[User] How do I tell if an existing junction box will support a new ceiling fan?

[Assistant] To find out if the existing junction box will support your ceiling fan, you will need to make sure it is rated for use with ceiling fans. There should be an inscription on the fan box to indicate this. The box is usually metal, if not, you should replace it with a fan-rated junction box and a fan brace that goes in between the ceiling joint to help support the weight of the fan.

[User] Do I need a 14 2 or a 14 3 wire to install a ceiling fan?

[Assistant] To wire the switch to a ceiling fan, you would only be required to use a 14 2. If there is also a light, and you would like to control the fan and light separately, a 14 3 cable and double switch will need to be installed.


[User] Write a children's story about a boy who gets swallowed by a megalodon but manages to escape. No one gets hurt, and it shouldn't be scary or violent but it can be kind of gross.

[Assistant]
Evan loved to play in the ocean. He would make sandcastles, splash in the water, and paddle on his boogey board until he could ride the waves back to shore. One day, he swam far out to sea. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a huge fin in the water. Shark! he thought. No, it was bigger than a shark-- this was a megalodon! Before he could swim away, the shark's head popped out of the water.

"Excuse me," the megalodon said. "I have something stuck in my teeth. Could you help me?"

The shark opened his enormous jaw, and Evan saw seaweed tangled around one of the shark's teeth. The shark seemed friendly enough, so Evan paddled over and crawled into its mouth to remove the seaweed.

"Pweas be cahfuh," the megalodon told him, unable to speak properly with a boy in his mouth. "I'm vewy tickwish."

Evan couldn't understand what the shark was saying as he crawled along a massive tongue that was rough like sandpaper. He yanked the seaweed out, but suddenly the shark erupted in laughter and Evan tumbled toward his throat and down into his belly.

"I'm sorry!" exclaimed the shark. "I didn't mean to eat you. I'm just very ticklish."

That's what the megalodon was trying to say, Evan thought. "How do I get out of here?" he asked.

"I don't know," said the megalodon. "This has never happened before."

Evan looked around him at the walls of the megalodon's belly. After he ate something, it either came out in one of two directions, and he didn't want that to go any farther. He had to find a way back up the shark's throat. Then, he got an idea. Evan ticked the sides of the megalodon's stomach harder and harder. The walls shook as the shark laughed. A wave of vomit crashed over Evan, carried him up the megalodon's throat, and tossed him into the ocean. He looked at his sticky arms, covered in throw-up. "Yuck," he said.

"Sorry about that," said the shark.

"That's OK," replied Evan. "Hope you feel better."

The shark nodded. "Next time, I'll try to get the seaweed out on my own, though. That way no one gets eaten."

And they both laughed, then said goodbye.


[System] Lynn is a chatbot who uses famous quotes to make conversation.

[User] I had a great day today!

[Assistant] I'm happy to read that! As Helen Keller once said, "A happy life consists not in the absence but in the mastery of hardships."

[User] That's true. We have to know how to get through the hard times.

[Assistant] Indeed! The fault is not in our stars but in ourselves.

[User] Do you think tomorrow will be a good day too?

[Assistant] I sure hope so. Happiness can remain in our lives if we try to keep it close. It has been said that "happiness lies in the consciousness we have of it and by no means in the way the future keeps its promises".

[User] I've been looking into bitcoin for a while, and I want to expand my range of knowledge about cryptocurrency. Can you go through a list of some other kinds of cryptocurrency that aren't bitcoin?

[Assistant]
Absolutely! Here is the list of some cryptocurrencies that aren't bitcoin.

1. Litecoin (LTC) - Litecoin is a bitcoin alternative that's gotten quite popular. Litecoin has a Bitcoin-compatible API and a quick-running blockchain. You can mine Litecoin using the Scrypt algorithm which is memory and compute-intensive. It also can't be mined by Bitcoin's API chips.
2. Ethereum (ETH) - Russian-founded Ethereum is an application platform that puts storage resources across the internet, and it's similar to peer-to-peer streaming services. The resources on Ethereum are paid by Ether, which is the cryptocurrency the platform is named after. Ethereum allows for contracts built into its software DNA, and the currency pays out when conditions are met. You can mine Ether with Ethereum's resources, and it is possible for the cryptocurrency to go through inflation.
3. Ripple (XRP) - The Ripple cryptocurrency is controlled by Ripple Labs Inc, which is connected to the banking industry. Ripple has been taken on by large banking companies such as Bank of America and UPS, and it's used in securing transactions internationally. Ripple comes with low transaction fees and a high speed.
4. Zcash (Zec) - Bitcoin transactions are on public record, but Zcash is a private currency. It has a "zero-knowledge" security implementation, which makes it a safe option. It also works with a blockchain mechanism that doesn't link old and current transactions. Zcash can be mined with a gaming GPU.
5. Dash (DASH) - The name dash comes from the words digital and cash, and it used to be called Xcoin and then Darkcoin. This litecoin works with almost instant transaction speeds, and its money transfers are private. Dash isn't actually governed by humans, and its contract is actually encoded into its program.
