  • "Morality police " rapists and co come up with the fanciest names for themselves.

  • Invented in the 50s, Fortran = FORmula Translating language. It was basically created to solve this sort of problem.

  • So we can't have Bezos / Musk compete for world king?

  • That's exactly what I had in mind but I'd rather not give it any sort of mention. I hope it dies in obscurity.

  • I'm very wary of Lemmy because of this. There's so much pro Russia / China going on here. Users who spam post propaganda that go unbanned.

  • The less we push against Russia now the more aggressive it will become in the future. Playing nice has led the world to a global crisis and Ukraine to a bloodshed filled with war crimes.

    Russia's government is evil and there's no middle ground between good and evil that isn't evil.

  • The alternative forms of government have done it much faster. I wonder if we will get the balance right eventually. I thought Nordic states had a good thing going but seeing Sweden's right shift lately I'd guess not.

  • Isn't this how baby lambergines are made?

  • In most programming I have done, we treat the users as the dumb mofos. In Java, the programmers are treated as the dumb mofos. As a dumb mofo, I have a great dislike toward Java's standard development ecosystems.

  • I don't see Twitter failing. Perhaps this is just going according to plan too. I think the more likely case is that it becomes something like a social network version of Fox.

  • After all, Argentina isn't known for its economic smarts.

  • I didn't interprete perfect health as immortality in this case. Just a long life until I died of a very old age.

  • Much rather dual boot or use a VM.

  • I gave up today and downloaded another. Regularly taking me back to the top of the page also did me in.

  • Perfect health is a no brainer. Not just the longer life but also live free from all the problems that come with health issues.

    The second, not so much. Talent sounds good but can potentially make a very boring life. Telekinesis sounds good too but I think I'd still go with the time pause as that's effectively a 50% life increase. Imagine a day where you can devote 12 hours to work and chores and another 12 to social and personal? You then have perfect health which means you can achieve peak performance in pretty much any sport.

  • Best for what? There is no godlike programming language yet.

  • Are you saying we should put dibs on Sahara property?

  • Almost as many as there are stars in the Milky Way. A great ice breaker for a romantic dinner.
