Antinatalism is a mistake - I think I agree there, mostly because it’s a path to a narrow gene pool and increases the probability of extinction.

Highest aspiration being parenthood - hard pass there, the highest aspiration in life is the seeking and sharing of knowledge.

The purpose of an education is to learn how to think, not how to work.

A lot of universities are being treated as training centers for the world of work - and this is not ok.

Shartak - good times that game.

So, years ago, I used to run a PvP guild on an mmo. I rigged up a set of laws that meant, no matter what a person did, they’d be breaking one. Murder and fun often ensued, with the additional psychological element of “you did this to yourself”.

Should I sue Reddit for stealing my idea?

The key concept they’re missing a lot of the time is that software sits within the file system and not the other way around.

This is largely because apps hide this and data is generally stored in one place on your phone (the downloads folder).

Best way to fix it - have 1–2 lessons entirely devoted to finding shit on their computer. My favourite activity is “ok, save your word file, close word, you now have 10 mins to find that file without opening word”.

No porn = more horny people = more births

No abortion = more births

The logic driving US legislation everyone, it’s not so much “protect the children” thinking as “make the children have children” thinking.

Honestly, they’ve guaranteed that the US therapy industry is going to have patients for decades to come!

3 teas no lunch is even better - especially if you brew your tea to the consistency of tar…

That is less fucks-per-line than most code. There are also no suicide notes in the code, which is usually a good sign (unless your coders are planning a coup).

Sounds like healthiest production to me.

I mean, if I were to throw out lines such as “if only women didn’t demand so much”, I’d be guilty of misogyny regardless of who I implied the demand was levied against.

The misandry here is “men love to commit murder”, not the implication of who is murdered.

Misandry is where you see men as the problem - nothing more or less. It’s easy to quote stats, it’s much harder to address the real issues underneath.

Ah, misandry, my old friend.

Repolarise the electron microscope’s phase inverter!

Of course we do, you just need to keep on zooming!

Keep going! It’s almost visible!

If you zoom in on the line above, and I mean really zoom in you will see a violin small enough to express my level of sympathy.

As a mathematician who has worked in tech, this I am very much aware of XD

“Necessity is the mother of invention.”

What you’re likely seeing here is innovation similar to the early tech sector. The hardware limitation (no Nvidia chips) means different (usually more complex) solutions are needed.

These solutions usually require a deep understanding of a specific area of mathematics, and expertise in coding. The person making it normally has to be heavily invested, since it still eats a lot of hours.

I often joke, the mathematician who finds a faster algorithm for matrix operations is sitting on a billion dollar idea.

It works and is a pile of jank - Python

It doesn’t work and is a pile of jank - C++

You violated gods laws with how bad your code is and it still runs (right through the wall) - C

Looks like I just failed the “responsible adult” test for more than half my life!
