have you met many quants? a large number of them are like that, in much the same way that crypto currency people are (in fact, i think the crypto people are like that because they are poorly copying the quants).

usually the bits here are somewhat over the top, but this is a very modest proposal.

i’m so tired of libs (especially “leftists”) saying things like this are a win, or even that this is a “pretty significant shift in the status quo” (literally quoting one of them) because they might consider restricting arm transfers. another one i saw mentioned potential domestic military raids as a reason not to vote for Trump. the american left is fucking cooked. willing to vote for a genocide to save themselves is pure cowardice.

the process, in brief, goes something like this:

1. you write something (if this is the first time through this sequence for this work, it will definitely be bad. that’s ok and expected)
2. analyze that, which will reveal some significant flaws
3. figure out some ways that may help with those flaws
4. go back to step one with your improved understanding

this can be very frustrating to begin with, but after a few tries you will start to see some improvement, and maybe even something you actually like.

yeah, i do

unfotunately, you have once again overestimated the morons. i know at least one who responded to this with “she’s being quoted out of context”.

this is how you get no-call/no-shows

i think the way they want it to be understood is “if elected, i will so thoroughly address all of the issues you care about that you don’t have to vote on them again”, which is kind of reasonable until you try working out how that would happen

clearly foreign adversaries are trying to sap and impurify our precious bodily fluids

i know at one point they were quite proud to have a federal (DHS i think?) cybersecurity department on there. like, there was an announcement. this was a couple years ago, so i guess stuff may have changed since then, but i don’t trust like that.

from what that link says, it sounds like the rule was made mostly to get around employers saying “this part of your paycheck is a bonus, not a wage, so it’s exempt from the time and a half rule”

so, start with:

x = 0.999…

now multiply each side by 10

10x = 9.9999…

now we subtract x from the left side, and 0.999… from the right, which is fine because they are equal:

9x = 9

and from there it should be fairly obvious that x is also equal to 1, which means 0.999… is also equal to 1

that’s an ergonomic nightmare. the keyboard is too high and the screen is too low. if you use that for more than a couple minutes at a time your shoulders will hate you.

our possessions tie us to our past, and it’s to our benefit to choose those ties carefully. how does having those big troves of things you will never look at again make you feel?

i mean, the way the supreme court has operated historically (and especially in the last few years) means they can delete basically any law they don’t like, but you are correct that the decriminalisation of homosexuality is only based on a court verdict. many states never removed the relevant laws from their books, so they could in theory be enforced again if the court changes their precedent.
