I did well in data structures and algorithms in uni, but I have never had those topics come up in my 4 years of being a software developer. I'm in web development, FWIW.

So you don't really have to know that stuff, depending on what kind of software engineering that you get into.

Hamas doesn't really do stonings, so you appear to be correct. It looks like just about every execution committed by Hamas involved a firing squad, most often performed in public.

Hamas does torture and execute people for suspicion of being gay, though, even their own commanders.

Free Palestine. Fuck the IDF and Hamas.

Maybe the Tesla owners who still somehow worship or apologize for Musk, but most of them don't deserve this at all. A lot of Tesla drivers dislike Musk and regret their purchases at this point.

They were the best electric car to buy for a long time. I don't fault anyone for buying them in the past. If anyone buys one now, with all the information and other options we have, then maybe they'd deserve it.

FWIW, I would choose to hang out with your dogs over most other humans, too.

The teacher said, "I HAVE to vote democrat", so that means I have to go the rest of my life not voting for democrats, even if it's in my best interest, or else the teacher wins.

Really shows how petty and illogical humans can be.

I've watched most of them as well, and Irreversible was the worst for me, somehow, even though its subject matter isn't really as bad as some of the others.

The way too long and hyper realistic R scene is definitely a big part of it, but the movie also assaults you subconsciously throughout the whole thing. The soundtrack is full of low frequencies that are known to give people nausea and anxiety, and the constant strobe lights also just make it hard to even sit through the quiet scenes.

It is a punishing watch. Wouldn't want to watch it again.

As far as the murder part goes, dairy cows are mostly all killed very quickly after they stop producing milk. They are almost never allowed to live out their full lives. Especially, none of the cows in the larger dairy industry. The calves produced in the process are also just raised to be slaughtered. Besides the murder, The act of farming dairy products is also just cruel and inhumane in practice.

To produce milk, cows have to be kept in a pretty much constant state of pregnancy. Once the calves are born, they are immediately taken from the mother, and it is known that cows have maternal instincts that makes this painful for them. They have to be taken away, because otherwise they will drink the milk we are trying to steal from the process. Then the calf's are raised in isolation for the first few months of their life on a milk substitute.

That is the bare minimum amount of cruelty needed to produce milk. Obviously, our modern capitalist driven dairy industry ramps up the cruelty in many other ways to increase productivity and efficiency.

The best thing to do would be to legalize and regulate cartel-related drugs. The cartels would not be able to compete if the war on drugs was ended, basically.

Not only would it have the effect of weakening the cartels, but it would also lead to a lot of harm reduction, because drug addicts would actually know what they are putting in their bodies.

A good example of this is Marijuana being legalized in most of the US, and its effect on the cartels. The cartels have almost completely backed out of the cannabis trade, because they can't compete with the quality, price, and convenience of being able to buy weed legally at a store.

Gotta add a 'daddy' at the end for maximum effect.

Crazy. I had to look it up and I found some stuff, including this old web article from 2002 that talks about this cat. The cat's name was, Miss Greeny, apparently.

There are multiple sources, but there is no wiki page and none of the sources seem well known, so I'm having a hard time figuring out if it's legit, or just a really good hoax.

This comment is not very fire.

Same with Malcolm X, and Fred Hampton. As soon as any of these men started talking about class unity, the people in charge immediately acted to get rid of them. Really shows how scary class consciousness is to the ruling class.

Unfortunately, revolutions don't happen in a peaceful way. The ones in charge of this country would not simply give that power up without a fight. They won't even let college students protest US support of Israel, peacefully.

I just wish they would address the US corporations doing the exact same thing, using algorithms to shape American public opinion.

It's just hypocritical for them to go after TikTok for doing it, specifically, when Meta and Google are doing the same thing, and have been doing so for longer.

If they really cared about this negatively affecting US public opinion, they would make a blanket law about algorithm shaping and go after any corpo that breaks it. Sadly, that won't happen, because the US corpos are in our politicians pockets.

I feel your pain. I just soldered my first solder adding an arcade joystick button as a killswitch on my guitar. It was not nearly as precise as soldering a board and it was still a PITA. Us humans just don't have enough hands.

You make a good point. We all might be being copied and deleted in our sleep every night, for all we know.

There'd be no way to know anything even happened to you as long as your memory was copied over to the new address with the rest of you. It would be just a gap in time to us, like a dreamless sleep.

There was a biased documentary produced called Honest Man: The life of R. Budd Dwyer that spread the myth that Dwyer was framed. AFAIK, there is no evidence to prove that this actually happened, at all.

The FBI investigated him, a grand jury indicted him, and a court jury (who saw all the evidence over a long period of time) convicted him. All the appeals filed by his lawyers, after his death, were also denied.
