There’s the camp of those who say that inheritance is synonymous with OOP. I’m not in that camp, but I’d like to see you duke it out with them.

How do you cool a nuclear reactor on the moon?

Free games on Gog are hardly one click, since you have to go into the notification settings in your account to turn the marketing emails back off after they were turned on because you claimed a free game.

This is a programming community. The joke is that you’re asked to do something that isn’t part of your job, to do someone else’s job for them.

It’s somehow inverted. If it was Peano, two would be represented by two Somes, not by six. I have no idea how this one works.

That’s not actual code though, it looks like some kind of trace. Notice the filenames at the end of each line.

The actual solution the issue opener there might be looking for is to disable C++ parsing, since it’s not actually C++ code, it’s just some text they pasted into VSCode and they’re wondering why their editor can’t handle it.

Apart from that, aren’t Palestinians also semitic?

Don’t act like YouTube won’t crack down on those as well. YouTube getting more aggressive about ads is bad for everyone.

I don’t entirely get what’s going on in the comments here but I just love how one responder pointed out how SpaceX is not the same as Tesla when no one prior had mentioned either.

That’d still be exploitable. You could just run 3 of your own instances. Coming up with a system to stop malicious users that can’t be gamed would be tricky.

Extra spicy take: The Luddites were right. They were really always about opposing unethical use of technology, people who use their name as an insult were always all about “progress over people”, and you should never feel bad for being called a Luddite.

I can see why you’d look at it that way, but it just says it can extract confessions, not that those confessions are truthful.

Ooo, old school AI 😍

In our current cultural consciousness, I’m not sure that even qualifies as AI anymore. It’s all about neutral networks and machine learning nowadays.

*long long, if we’re gonna be taking about C types. A long is commonly limited to 32 bits.

But there’s really no point in flooring a double outside of the range where integers can be represented accurately, is there.

I remember being like that as a teen. Unfortunately, Linux has had an air of elitism around it for a long time, possibly since its inception.

What games have you played in the last 365 days that stand out to you as the most memorable experiences?

I think the most common answer is going to be Tears of the Kingdom, and that is one for me that stands out for sure, but I will try to add some more unique inputs as well. Many are games that came out longer than a year ago, but i didnt get around to playing until more recently....

Pizza Tower is genuinely amazing.

Cassette Beasts also surprised me in how good it was.

As much as I’ve come to loathe Google, I think even that is a bit unfair to them. Search engine optimization is a result of the existence of search engines, because being at the top of the results is always worth good money.

Back before Google was the top dog, there were numerous search engines, and I’m pretty sure people shared tips on how to get further up on the results even then, they just didn’t use the term SEO yet.

Google became the dominant search engine because it gave better results than anyone else, because it wasn’t so easy to manipulate your ranking on the results. But there were always sites that wanted to be on top even when they shouldn’t be. Google stayed ahead of their game for some decades, but now it looks like they can’t or won’t keep it up anymore.

Being able to black list, downplay or uplift specific sources is awesome

I’ve never heard of Kagi, but yeah, those features sound like a godsend. I’d love it if you could have that on a search engine that isn’t pay to use.

I feel the need to remind people that the concept of the ecological footprint was invented by BP to direct the focus of climate fears away from large corporations and onto individuals.

Hm yeah, competing with such loss leader printers would be difficult. But how come I’ve never heard of anyone making things such as bootleg printer ink? Or does the police barge into the doors of anyone who tries?
