Time for a joke about zero Megagrams

There is an implicit threat of government censorship there, even if it is ultimately toothless. And since valve is clearly not the one interested in increasing moderation, your point about the 1st amendment “not applying to private forums” is irrelevant

if it’s the government that is doing the censoring, against the will of both the users and the private company, how does it not apply here then?

It’s “real” in that the police shared the picture: https://x.com/NYPDnews/status/1864706407985221974

though the clothing seems different from an earlier picture, especially with this one having big front pockets in the jacket. so there’s claims that it is not the same suspect.

is that spot inside an active volcano?

There literally already are proven examples, and it didn’t change anything

I thought you just wanted him afraid? Sounds like you too actually want him literally killed without charge or trial

Those are not mutually exclusive. One is much more likely to happen than the other.

And if someone does end up committing a murder because of some twitter post and going to prison for it, hey, that’s one less ticking time bomb walking the streets. Ol’ nick’s life is far less valuable than those of random innocents. And one more martyr is not going to change anything. They are perfectly capable of substituting imaginary slights for real ones.

Trying to beat up someone holding a machete may not be the brightest idea

also the person apparently spent 2 million dollars to find the number. and the money is probably from stock compensation from nvidia

that does happen to be one of the defining characteristics of mersenne primes.

And searching for mersenne primes happens to be the easiest known way to find extremely large prime numbers (via the Special Number Field Sieve I believe)

Looks like the image I found cropped out the signature, seems to be jeremykaye.tumblr.com

Garbage collection is still allowed, and technically JIT languages are still compiled so it really isn’t that restrictive

every single language (except Vlang of course) is memory safe if you program it perfectly.

Very, very few humans are capable of doing that, especially with C.

Are these families somehow more meritorious than the rest of the population?

lacking multi-generational connections is still a pretty rosy picture of disadvantage. Statistically “unmeritorious” parents are far more likely to have their child suffer from malnutrition due to lack of money and neglect due to the parents working 2 jobs or having substance abuse issues. If the country has private schools, they won’t have access to them and due to living in a low-wealth area their public schools will have a disproportionately high amount of other neglected and abused kids which makes everything harder.

did you know the USA is not as bad as north korea? checkmat e librals

pretty simple. [the video site] sees how popular tiktok is and wants to get a slice of that “short format” pie. It incentivizes content creators to make content that fits the format by promoting it on the algorithm. If there is a shortage of content in that format (and for that type of audience), anything semi-decent will do, eg. highlights from longer videos. As the algorithm needs to fill that quota of videos somehow

…which ironically makes for a perfect parallel with “C/C++”
