If you have Nautilus as the filemanager, you can write a Nautilus script that does this for you, you just then have to right click and select the script. You can run essentially any script this way, I use it for some preset file conversions.

But that's not socialism, is it?

Also you can try to argue that some methods of welfare distribution are inefficient, but you can't argue that the needs are being ignored.

But did Jesus proscribe government welfare programs? It seems to be that the basis for "Jesus was a socialist", is based on his teachings on charity. But this can be done by personal charity, and infact those are the examples he gave. Nowhere in the Bible does it say "you should vote for needs-based welfare programs".

The obvious response to this is "companions in guilt". It's a meta ethics argument that essentially points out that moral reasoning is no different than other types of reasoning. There is no need for "genetic memory", when like logic it's simply a consequence of how human minds are structured.

Bad faith argumentation has nothing to do with honestly presenting your views. I can defend positions I don't actually hold just fine, an argument doesn't gain any special properties depending on who makes it. I could even claim that I held these beliefs and it would have no effect. Rather, bad faith argumentation has to do with how you engage with your opponents arguments, not your own. An example of bad faith would be if your opponent said that they liked Germany, and you then spun it into portraying them as a Nazi.

I wrote up a port of GNU factor that has a slightly nicer UI than the original, and runs in approximately 1/3rd the time for 128-bit integers, on average. This is just a preliminary release and I plan implementing elliptic curve arithmetic and extending it to 192-bit to cover all the small integers that CADO-NFS doesn't support.

The factorization algorithm is provided as a separate crate that provides a C-api, since fast factorisation algorithms are hard to come-by.

Wouldn't this just prevent you from allocating more memory (than zero)?

[–] jasory@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Nope. I only learned to use computers as an adult, and only learned programming incidentally as a tool for other work.

The truth is that it's actually much faster to learn as an adult, you just have more momentum if you start as a child.

Ada particularly the SPARK subset. It's approach is quite different than most languages, focusing on minimising errors and correctness. It's fairly difficult but I like to use it to teach people to actually understand the problem and how to solve it before they ever write the code.

You will be sorely missed with your worthless commentary.... and your unwarranted arrogance.... sorely missed the people weep the loss....

You've had plenty of time to prove your claim that marijuana is an important medicine and anyone who disagrees must be citing Fox news, and yet all you have been able to do is act incredulous that there might be a more effective methodology for finding relevant research than a keyword search. The amount of relevant high-quality papers is not in the thousands, it's not even in the hundreds. You arrived at your conclusion by the most useless and sophmoric methodology and are acting smug because you (supposedly) teach an introductory class to highschool graduates. Guess what dipshit? We don't use your shitty lessons.

"Then we can talk"

You already admitted that you don't understand pharmacology so what exactly do you think you're going to talk about? How you still don't understand how to perform graph traversal to find related studies?

[–] jasory@programming.dev -1 points 1 year ago (5 children)

No there is not. There is a few hundred, and most of then don't even cover efficacy in vivo which is the subject matter.

Keep LARPing as an academic, lets see how stupid you really are.

"the past 30 days"

So you literally don't know how drug tests work? Marijuana clears an oral test in about a day, most jobs that test for it simply tell you to come back the next day. This is in legal state, and covers the vast majority of jobs. If you can't be sober for a full 24-hrs before a pre-employment check you're an addict. This would be like if someone admitted to being drunk the morning of an interview.

"Neither of those details speaks to sobriety at work"

Again you're confused by the efficacy of drug tests. If you can't be sober for 1 or 2 days to get your job that you applied for, it's far less likely that you are going to be sober on the clock. (Few places do uranalysis, and I've literally never heard of a blood or hair test which are the ones that actually can reliably test that far back).

Strictly speaking you cannot prove that the person who shot heroin during your interview, is also going to do drugs on the clock. It is however a very good indicator that they are unprofessional, will be a bad employee and are quite likely to drugs on the clock. Companies don't just spend thousands of dollars a year to be cruel to employees.
