  • C) All of the above.

    I hope it will be considered insane that we pump livestock full of them as a preventative measure, rather than as a treatment, while also prescribing them for every little thing.

    When our current antibiotics are no longer effective at all, I hope that we'll be able to find new ones and that we'll be much more responsible with their use. I hope that people in the future will be as incredulous at our current use of them, as we are of using arsenic in makeup.

  • Anybody seen that show "Leave the World Behind" on Netflix where the ultra-rich basically just get a heads up before anyone else that the shit is about to hit the fan?

    This feels like that

  • Ye, I agree with you. I made the comment as a joke, but I don't actually believe these people are stupid. This is a generalisation, but I think they're largely uneducated and brainwashed, but still very intelligent, and curious people. You can see this in some of the experimentation that they do that's really sound from a scientific method POV. The internet is littered with flat earthers disproving themselves.

    The best ones admit they're wrong, and abandon flat earth. I have nothing but respect for those people.

  • New Zealand doesn't exist. Show me New Zealand on a map

    (this joke works because New Zealand is left off of a stupid number of maps)

  • Ah, don't worry. They're often too stupid to realise that themselves

  • "At least democrats are openly evil marxist traitors"

    Mother fucker, HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO DO ALL OF THIS CRAP!! un-fucking-believable!

  • I sometimes feel like that IS their plan

  • Anon wipes his ass

    Jump
  • and probably a shave

  • Yep! I'm wrong. Pretty embarrassing!

    That's a nice solution though! Gonna have to try and remember that one!

  • you might be able to do it with a bitwise op? My track record tonight is not great so I'm not going to comment. Have a look at @ImplyingImplactions comment for a loopless solution

  • yes, I'm being a dumb tonight. I'm completely wrong

  • I'm sorry, but even without knowing about the mod operator, this is inefficient and over engineered. Why have a loop at all?

     
        
    fun isEven(n: Int){
        return n == abs(n)
    }
    
      

    no loop required...

    having said that, I can totally see how that was missed in a high pressure interview. I hate interviews like that!

    edit: Ha ha... isEven...not isPositive... I'm tired. ignore me!

  • Did you mess around with compressing it yourself at all? Like, if you "deep fried" it, would the difference be recognizable?

    If any youtube/peertube creators are reading, I'd click that video...

  • lol, I don't even own an optical drive anymore. I'm 100% streaming these days. It looks like from other comments there are places to buy FLAC files directly (which I'd hope would be decent quality)

    It's all academic though, I'm not really interested in becoming an audiophile. Streaming quality is fine for my needs.

  • do you know if anyone has tried this with a flac and an mp3 file? Theoretically all that should be left is the "loss" right? what would that sound like?

    eta: I'd try myself but I'm not an audiophile and wouldn't even know where to get a flac file (legally) and doubt my crappy $20 in ears would be capable of playing it back if I did
