Fuck, why is it that almost everything that is bad in the US can be traced back to Reagan. It’s unbelievable

Yes. I mean I’m a man and I had no trouble understanding the post but for some reason it is very hard for some people

He had like 25 laps with Leclerc behind him AND with DRS. Every lap I was look at that interval timer and it was close to 0.6s which meant an overtake opportunity or it was almost 1.0s which would have broken the tow.

Then LECs tyres fell HARD. The crash at the end was crazy (haven’t seen Perez’s replay but it seemed like his fault), however I feel like the last two laps would have been bonkers and I think Leclerc would have finished 4th.

The point of the post is that if Trump had said that he wanted to kill every immigrant at gun point, there wouldn’t be any jokes or memes about it, because it’s a dangerous statement that would be taken seriously by anyone.

By making memes about him saying immigrants are eating dogs and cats, then we are “signaling” that what he said isn’t terrifyingly dangerous, we’re taking it as ridiculous and funny and not to be worried about. And that plays a role in normalizing all the stupid shit he has been saying.

As a disclaimer, Trump is a piece of shit and I am DEFINITELY NOT saying both sides are bad (I fucking hate that argument). But the argument in the post is a valid one. Of course there are also some upsides to the memes. First they are funny but they also cause those words to reach out to more people which hopefully has an effect in terms of voting against him

Let’s make it to 100 days!

Not to excuse the fault the democrats and especially Biden has on the situation in Gaza, but “don’t both sides” this shit.

Not only is “but Trump” an actual valid argument for about a million issues, Trump would absolutely steamroll the genocide in Gaza to even worse metrics. So not even in that 1 metric are the republicans a better option

The autocomplete is amazing

It just takes the mental strain out of syntax and I can focus more on the logic and structure of the code

Like you said much better for writing unit tests, but also for log messages and comments

Even the chat is sometimes useful but not as much. I treat it as much junior engineer assistant/rubber duck. I.e. I never completely accept what it outputs and usually review everything but quite often it gives me a different idea/approach even if it doesn’t write it 100% correct the first time. Because I always review it, having it autocomplete the next line is my preferred approach so I verify each line as they come.

Once you start to past 10/20+ lines in a row you will have a bad time.

Love your comments. Keep them up

Also if there’s a place to follow you, especially closer to the election let me know

I recently joined mastodon and follow almost no one there, so if you are there with these analysis definitely let me know

It’s all good share how much you want.

That sounds like a cool friend. Thank you for your recommendations as well :)

I see

Thanks anyway for the input

I realize now that you probably have like twice my age and I’m very much an adult. Which is pretty cool, don’t get me wrong :)

Noted

I don’t really listen to audiobooks but it’s always good to know.

Also what’s your opinion on the rest of the trilogy that neuromancer is part of? I have the second book as well as my gf bought it but she didn’t have the courage/will to actually read it after neuromancer. Just curious

And yes I’ll let you know how it goes :)

We got our own book club in this thread haha (at least what I read)

Hey!!

Contact is read!!

I really liked it. In a story about ET contact, the focus is basically almost 100% on humans but I actually liked the approach. Halfway there were some chapters where it went on some tangents and it seemed weird filler but by the end it all wrapped up rather nicely.

It was also a much easier read, having taken like 1/10 of the time Red Mars took me.

I’ll probably read Neuromancer next, even if my gf found it a hard read.

I was like ok that’s hot but for a record?? Then I realize that it says winter.

We’re so fucked

I got invited

Do you If I accept it and install the game if I will be able to invite other people or do I have to play for some time?

Exactly this. If Taylor swift gets the swifties to the polls it’s game over.

And he might get sued as well which would be the cherry on top

They were more than happy to have a very reasonable chance of having Trump in the office by choosing not to vote.

Not as bad as voting for him but still not a great excuse.

There’s also no reason to believe that 100% of those people would not vote for Trump. What is most likely is that the proposition would be roughly similar, maybe a bit lower

I’ve had iPhone for years and I can’t remember the last time I didn’t use chrome with it

Never rooted my phones either. It’s definitely not blocked

Interesting

It wasn’t even a video live stream. It was just audio.

Pardon my ignorance but why are you assuming that the abortion amendment is guaranteed to pass?
