As I’ve heard it expressed, Chinese thinking is that capitalism can be kept in service to the (communist) state but then you see their capitalists investing in international Nazis (just like all capitalists) and I wonder how long they think they can ride that leopard before it throws them and starts eating faces.
To paraphrase a common joke, it’s called the Fediverse because it’s full of feds.
This was probably a rare Babylonbee hit and OP was rightfully ashamed of the source.
I’m really wondering what it means myself! Is it like superstitious programming? Or “cookie cutter” perhaps, using templates and copy-paste from QA sites to duct tape it all together?
A friend posted this meme on Facebook and my thoughts immediately went to Ocarina of Time. Was Miyamoto also a jar collector? How many jar-obcessed children did this game create?!
I figured rule of threes meant it was funnier to leave it out. 2017 would have been sad gooning to pornhub during the first trump nightmare.
Then 2027 could be sad gooning to ai hyperporn during the second trump nightmare.
Maybe I should have used 20 year jumps, but "2037, I am jerking off because there’s no food, and the internet is nothing but ai porn.’ didn’t seem as funny a point for the “time shattering” bit.
I thought this was going to go Watchmen for a moment. Like…
It is 1997, I am a young boy, I am jerking off to a grainy porno playing over stolen cinemax.
It is 2007, i am in my dorm, i am jerking off to a forum thread full of hi-res porno.
It is 2027, i am jerking off to an ai porno stream that mutates to my desires in real time. I am about to nut so hard that it shatters my perception of time.
Like all good sci-fi, they just took what was already happening to oppressed people and made it about white/American people, while adding a little misdirection by extrapolation from existing tech research. Only took about 20 years for Foucault’s boomerang to fully swing back around, and keep in mind that all the basic ideas behind LLMs had been worked out by the 80s, we just needed 40 more years of Moore’s law to make computation fast enough and data sets large enough.
Now that we’ve sent a huge box of insults and curses to my sister, let’s go impress that homeless guy who occasionally shows up to cause chaos in our lives! Hey, where’s your conniving friend, let’s start a business with him while we’re at it!
America: let’s disband the CDC, FDA, USDA, any set of letters we can that might regulate something. all the livestock dies from preventable diseases
Meanwhile, China: wHaT dO wE dO wItH aLl ThEsE cHiCkEnS?
Wildly, in C# you can do either and it has different results. I believe a bare throw doesn’t append to the stack trace, it keeps the original trace intact, while throw e updates the stack trace (stored on the exception object) with the catch and rethrow.
In C#, you can only throw objects whose class derives from Exception.
This is incorrect. The C# is valid. Throw in a catch statement simply rethrows the caught exception. Source: I’ve been writing C# for 20 years, also the docs.
I won’t act like MS absolutely didn’t steal core concepts and syntax from Java, but I’ve always thought C# was much more thoughtfully designed. Anders Hejlsberg is a good language designer, TypeScript is also a really excellent language.
This is just willful misunderstanding of history. Several of the founders were against political parties, but since game theory hadn’t been invented yet they put in place a system that would force a two or one party system. Which it quickly did. There have been two parties from the very beginning, just not the same two parties. But arguably, the same two broad positions: the Federalists favored elites, while the DRs favored liberalism.
PETA isn’t going to like all those für loops
At least the names are extremely self-documenting. Some of those German variable names are long enough they might even be self-aware!
Well, I just found out that manatee mammaries are located in their armpits, so I think we’re going to need to pull up the drawing board on this one. Seems like mermaids need a total do over!
Oh don’t worry, I get myself involved in plenty. I prefer to make problems at the architectural or “leadership” level though.
