Well if you need something to work with Fortran…
Well if you need something to work with Fortran…
The whitespace doesn’t bother me at all, but holy hell! Any time I’m trying to understand a Python program/library that’s anything above a couple thousand lines of code, I instantly feel a burning hate for dynamic typing.
I love Python for scripting- in large part because of dynamic typing. IMO it’s just not a language made for building large infrastructures.
Sorry, but I honestly don’t get it. I I were to point out the crown jewel of open source, it’s gcc. gcc is the backbone and survival condition for so much modern industry that it’s not even remotely funny.
Take away gcc, and the world will likely burn for a substantial amount of time until people start making in-house or proprietary alternatives.
Being a phd. myself, I would say it seems likely that the person in question wasn’t aware of the research/sweeps that had been done, and was searching through literature with the express purpose of finding out what kind of work had been done on the subject, when they came across this data.
The way I usually find out about a research campaign is by reading articles from said campaign. It’s very rare that I’ll need to reach out to the authors to ask for more data than what is available in their publications.
If there’s any American reading this: Please vote. The world needs you and all your friends to vote. I’m begging you, please get out and vote.
I didn’t say that. I’m pointing out that we spent shitloads of money that could have gone to out own schools and healthcare, and a dozens of young soldiers lives (I’m not American), and we were clearly told by both the local population and a bunch of other countries to fuck off.
So yes. I’ll say it. Fuck em. We don’t owe them shit. We came down there, suppressed the Taliban, built s schools and hospitals, and secured elections, and when we left, the Afghan army, which we had trained and supplied, folded immediately.
We can’t be held responsible for them not revolting against a suppressive regime. We gave them all the tools to keep the taliban out, but they chose to fold. That’s on them.
It’s tragic, but that’s how it is. If they’re not willing to fight for their own rights, they won’t get to enjoy them.
I’ve heard this explanation before as well, that essentially nobody felt any loyalty to the national government. You could kind of tell why when the whole government just evacuated the country when the west left.
Are you suggesting that a new coalition goes back to Afghanistan to throw out the Taliban again? Remember how popular that was last time?
It just doesn’t stop baffling me how quickly the Afghan army folded to these people and accepted this as their future… just tragic all around
I’ve been wondering for a while: What is preventing a bunch of not-drowning-in-corruption countries from just not recognising FIFA any more, saying they’re sick of the blatant corruption, and starting their own international association? I would think you could get a lot of the major football nations to support something like that, because it looks like it’s mostly Quatar, Saudi-Arabia and the likes which benefit from the current system…
When I see this kind of videos I honestly have a kind of hard time imagining how they’re not just punching through Russian lines left and right… I mean, I just can’t imagine anything withstanding that kind of assault short of heavy air and/or artillery support coming in. Here’s to hoping Russias artillery and air advantage deteriorate to a point where these kind of assaults can be exploited and turned in to major breaches some time soon.
Totally justifiable IMO. In my day-to-day life its much more important that my shit works when I need it to than that I get whatever potentially something-breaking latest hotfix patch for everything on my system. Put simply: My OS, and the packages I use, work. If I don’t update, I’m sure it will also keep working. When I have time for an update to break something, or want to pull in some new feature or patch, I’ll run an update.
Don’t do that in Norway either - just bad luck if the holidays happen to land on a weekend. On the other hand, we have five weeks of paid vacation, and holidays are not counted into those, I’m not sure how that’s done in other countries?
I mean, it’s no secret that a bunch of countries are running massive disinformation campaigns in order to divide the populations of western countries. Attempting to destabilise another country by propping up certain political factions is a tactic that has been employed across the world for at least the past century (see: Lenin, and how he got in power).
Of course, we are responsible for ensuring that we do not become fascist states, but acting like theres no outside influence propping up the fascists is naive at best.
I guess, but the again, pretty much any sentient creature could tell you that drinking the marshy water with dead stuff in it is a bad idea. That’s a pretty basic survival instinct that I think we had figured out well before we had modern science.
Right… Im not even able to keep track of the months anymore…
I’m assuming South Korea has an impressive production capacity for 155 shells, given the nature of NK, and the kind of war they’ve been preparing for. In that case, direct support from South Korea could mean a pretty solid increase in access to 155mm, which seems to be what is determining the course of the war in Ukraine!
I’m honestly just thinking that at some point they must have pushed it too far. The media is calling this a “retaliation strike” but fail to mention that the missile exchanges with Iran started when Israel “assassinated” a Hamas top in Iran using a bomb last year, with a bunch of collateral casualties.
Like… what does it take to convince all their neighbours to start a ground war in Israel, and for the west to simultaneously look the other way? It looks like they’re trying their best to find out.
I feel like it has something to do with the fact that there’s less content, so when you post something, it’s actually going to be seen by people.
I didn’t post or comment anything the last couple years on Reddit, largely because it increasingly felt like shouting into the void.
Wow, you really must be an actual idiot. I’m honestly kind of impressed.
