I'm so glad he pointed out the compiler optimizing the If statements. A lot of coworkers seem to forget that the compiler is doing a lot of that work for us now, and some of the code becomes unreadable as they try to make it "more efficient."

Bro, stop, you can't beat a machine at machine stuff

How was this not obvious when the panic set in with the pandemic.

It's never about productivity, it's always about increasing value.

Is it a multi species pandemic yet? I missed 2020-2021 so bad. I loved not being around people.

See here I was thinking that's be crazy but I'd rather do that

That's one thing I appreciate about Lemmy. Without a doubt you are all people of logic.

For a moment, I thought "hmm. What if we all said 'No, I shot Brian Thompson'" sort of like what happened in Spartacus, but then I remembered that all 6000 slaves or whatnot were executed

The act must be committed with the intent to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion

No, see, that's clearly false. The civilian population did not get intimidated or coerced by fuck and all, and the government wasn't threatened.

So, nope. Not guilty.

I believe the test was done off the East Coast of Africa. It was actually recorded on the nuclear detonation detection satellite. It may also have been a joint operation between South Africa and Israel.

Cyberpunk dystopia, but without the cool ass shit, just a lot of ways to die horribly.

I'm surprised they haven't already. They have said things like calling this extremism etc.

Unfortunately, that may backfire worse than they think it will. The moment they identify supporters of what he did as terrorists, then a lot more people suddenly become immune to further propaganda towards terrorism.

The smart thing for them would have been to shut up about it.

Engineers tend to be less accepting of the "debate and theory" part of science and more of the "analyze and act" part.

As in, the debate is stupid, the theory is that the rich have fucked us all, now let's see what we can do immediately to make it work.

Fight porn is not what I was hoping for, yet not exactly disappointed in the result.
