I’m finally coming around to this after decades of being steered away from it by The Simpsons (https://youtu.be/CQod276-7Mo?si=F5_Suzq41QAK_Wtg).

But they’re not even that passionate about this. Shitty game companies continue to be rewarded by players.

Guess they need to watch food network a second time.

Panko bread dough is placed between two metal surfaces, and is cooked by running an electric current through it. This avoids any crust forming, causing it to be very uniform.

I imagine you could do the same with brownies.

No, sorry. Ethically, this technology can only be used for torture.

Then, you could take those comments, and have the compiler use them to ensure you’re using the right variable in the right place. Oh wait, we just invented a type system.

One of my favorite lines in the game is (paraphrasing):

The problem with the bugs is that they’re relentless expansionists. We’ve found them on almost every planet in their territory that we’ve colonized.

It’s also pretty clear that we’ve been farming the bugs for space oil.

The only selling point of blockchain is that it’s trustless. This becomes a less-useful property when it comes to things in the real world, as you tend to need to trust at least one party.

For example, anything they achieved there with blockchain, they could have achieved with a simple government-run web service and a traditional database.

That is not a use for blockchain.

Say I want to say that I created an image. I could post that image’s hash to a block chain, and point to it as something anyone can check.

But you already have to trust me for that to be valuable. So I can just host that hash in any of a myriad of conventional methods that are simpler, more performant, and less wasteful.

I’m not sure we even bother to suggest they don’t use them on civilians.

You missed the best parts of his line. The full quote is:

I used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’ and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary to me. It’ll happen to you!"

That’s not even minimum wage in Seattle.

Not really, no. Who’s going to honor the deed? There’s your central authority that can control it.

I hope that anyone who thinks they’re a Rick spends a lot of time in therapy and on self-reflection, working to change that.

The electricity from the fans also ends up as heat.

Python with numpy/matplotlib/scipy.

Yeah, the few at the top bring in revenue, but most don’t. Speculating on future revenue is not helpful.

If you’d read the links I shared, you’d see the revenue figures include alumni donations, and they’re still a net negative for the majority of schools.

Do you have a source that sports are a net financial positive for schools?

Here’s an article about students being charged thousands of dollars each per year for sports programs: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/education/hidden-figures-college-students-may-be-paying-thousands-athletic-fees-n1145171

Here’s an article showing that only 25/65 Division I schools had a net positive revenue from sports: https://www.bestcolleges.com/news/analysis/2020/11/20/do-college-sports-make-money/, with those losing money losing a lot more than the ones making money.

Another: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/analysis-who-is-winning-in-the-high-revenue-world-of-college-sports

Just search for “college sports net revenue” and I’d be surprised if you find much, if anything, that agrees with you.

Looks like xmlrpc. The website for this spec no longer exists, so I definitely see a motivation to stop using it, lol.

I also appreciate that you’re supposed to learn Django 19 years before you learn Python.
