It's official, Rust is an anti C/C++ elitist slur
  • Rust is already obsolete, compared to Stingpie's excellent assembly language, paired with object oriented programming!

    This is the SEALPOOP specification:

    1. an assembler must create a binary program which satisfies the programmer's specifications.
    2. a compiler must translate the programmer's code into SEALPOOP's parallel instruction set source, which should be fed into the SEALPOOP PISS assembler.
  • A courts reporter wrote about a few trials. Then an AI decided he was actually the culprit.
  • I don't think the Chinese room is a good analogy for this. The Chinese room has a conscious person at the center. A better analogy might be a book with a phrase-to-number conversion table, a couple number-to-number conversion tables, and finally a number-to-word conversion table. That would probably capture transformer's rigid and unthinking associations better.

  • Capitalist logix
  • You say it's the goal of the proletariat to protect the revolution, but why would they? Each proletariat would benefit from the revolution's failure- they could live better lives as the bourgeois. You talk about the proletariat like they are some monolithic entity, with a single mind and goal. You talk big about helping the individual, but cannot see beyond their class. The proletariat is a person, with needs, desires and opinions. What father would hold the abstract ideals of the "revolution" over the life of his sick daughter? Any father I know would do anything for the safety of his children, even hoard life-saving medicine from others.

  • Capitalist logix
  • Communist logix

    we need to abolish private property so everybody has equal power.

    we class of people to maintain public ownership

    After all, how can we enforce public ownership without a more powerful class of enforcers?

  • This is a bigger culture shock than the metric vs imperial system to me.
  • Cardinal numbers refer to the size of a set. (10 apples in a basket) Ordinal numbers refer to the order of elements in a set (third apple put into the basket) you can rearrange an ordered set and retain the same cardinality (ten apples in the basket) but you'd change the order of the elements (switch the third and sixth apple).

    The floor number you're on is an ordinal number. You can rearrange the elements while retaining the cardinality of the set, (the total number of floors does not change) but the order of the set is changed (the third floor is switched with the sixth floor).

    Hope that clears up the confusion. Have a nice day.

  • This is a bigger culture shock than the metric vs imperial system to me.
  • Cardinal refers to number, while ordinal refers to sequence. Both American & British systems are ordinal, since changing the order of the floor numbers would make no sense. If they were cardinal, the order would be irrelevant.

    Personally, I prefer the American system, since the bottom floor is what you enter on, and is therefore the first floor you interact with.

  • Burning Up
  • Fahernhaters are always like, "nooo!! 40 degrees is so hot!!" Meanwhile, the fahrenchad's resting body temperature is nearly 2.5 times hotter. All fahernhaters would die at that temperature.

  • The solution is to post about your campaign to Lemmy so internet randos can meme about it
  • This is just like how Flant Grillby used the dragon watch to trick Grumbly the toll booth worker into leaving early. Of course, this completely ruined Groblar's plan to send Flant on a wild goose chase to retrieve an enchanted rubber chicken, which really ballyragged him. That is all to say that Flant could finally meet back up with Jontrather. After crossing The Pit Of Generic Fantasy Doom©, the managed to trick Korkouslork into saying "bananabread" and so Korkouslork was obligated to help them. After Korkouslork turned into a dragon, and flew Flant & Jontrather over the Turgberg mountains, they all landed in the forest of Krof's folly. Due to the ancient forest enchantment, Korkouslork was unable to turn all the way back, and could only spit fire instead of speak, no matter how hard she tried. This actually proved advantageous, as when L'orb, the wandering magician, tried to hypnotize her into saying bananabread, she spit fire at L'orb instead.

    Anyway, sorry to ramble on about my totally real DnD campaign I didn't just come up with on the spot.

  • How can we return to techno-optimism?
  • I always find it very funny when someone suggests anarcho-something as a solution to all of capitalism's problems. How exactly do you plan to enforce that? Do you think social pressure & shunning will do anything more than create a class of extremists with an oppositional philosophy?

  • Todays Mission
  • Depending on the church, this might actually be welcome. Bible study is supposed to be about interpreting the Bible, so asking why a person read a verse in a specific way wouldn't be rude.
