Yeah but 2012 is like 5 years ago, right? Right?

That’s one of the fundamental strategies from the trump playbook: just claim the people want something and if it’s repeated loud and often enough, people will start to believe it. Hopefully not for something as egregious as this, but it has worked in the past.

See, it’s fine when he goes golfing as he doesn’t directly contribute anything to his or his pals’ wealth. But those workers actually creating wealth, how dare they take days off.

If pre-orders ever made sense, it was when you still needed a physical cartridge or disc and the game wouldn’t get patches anyways. But those days are long gone.

What “political issues” do you mean? Requirements to safety and environmental standards? Sure, nuclear energy could be way cheaper if those pesky politicians would just allow to forgo safety standards and to dump nuclear waste into landfills, but that cannot seriously be what you’re suggesting.

Since there is no nice way to put it: WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?

Yeah, if your knees are fucked up at 30, you’re probably an athlete and injured your knees multiple times, or obese and overloaded them with too much weight.

That’s also part of the reason why IQ scores are deeply flawed. Using a single number to measure intelligence implies there is an absolute order.

Fun fact: Richard Feynman, one of the greatest physicist of the 20th century and legendary physics educator (author of the Feynman Lectures), was invited to join Mensa after he won the Nobel Prize in physics. He declined however, because he didn’t meet the IQ score of 130 normally required by Mensa.

In terms of memory usage it’s a waste. But in terms of performance you’re absolutely correct. It’s generally far more efficient to check is a word is 0 than to check if a single bit is zero.

The green and red thumbnail made me somehow read Portugal instead of Poland which left me confused for a second

He should just jump into the sea and start living with other gay fish

We really do have a Trump-light as our Chancellor now in Germany. He’s only been in office for a few days and he’s already flooding the zone with outrages at a faster rate than it’s possible to process them. At least his office doesn’t hold nearly as much power as the office of POTUS, and he needs the votes of the SPD to decide basically anything

While it’s good that he’s willing to give away 99%, he’d still be a billionaire and one of the richest persons of the world afterwards. He’s so incomprehensibly rich that even 1% of his wealth is more than any single person should own.

My experience is that the programmers from the first row very much still exist. My theory is that the number of programmers from the first row stayed the about same or even increased slightly. There are so many more so called “programmers” overall now, however, that in relation the first row programmers are much rarer now. And to be fair, you don’t need a programmer capable of programming entire games in assembly to center a div.

Only a matter of time until he declares himself Holy Roman Emperor. And silly me was under the impression, he’s trying to emulate an entirely different era of German history.

And yet, despite having instant access to the Internet you write this utter bullshit. “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”

But that’s kind of the point of the Turing test: a true AI with human level intelligence distinguishes itself by not being susceptible to probing or tricking it

General advice regarding open source: even if you tried something out years ago and didn’t like it, it may be well worth giving it another shot. Open source projects often need some time to mature and take their time to improve, but only get better over time.

This was actually said by Nancy Faeser, who is still an acting minister of the parting government. Her party (SPD) will be part of the new government coalition, but her ministry (internal affairs) will go to the CSU. In my opinion it’s even worse that she, as a SPD politician said that rather than some C*U politician, because for them it wouldn’t be anything new.

I just see another device to run Doom
