Brazil and Venezuela on the same side, but all of South America on the other side. The US is divided East/West instead of North/South. The contested territories on Africa remain contested despite everybody around them agreeing. India and China are on the same side, Russia is mostly on the other, and Siberia is cut on the very accessible planes instead of big rivers and hills...

I honestly have no idea where the author was going with this.

The amount of people on the internet seriously complaining that both Rust error handling sucks and that .unwrap(); is too verbose is just staggering.

The horseshoe is absolutely real. Social democracy (like the stuff that candidate proposes) is on the middle, and both sides go out into a corrupt authoritarian government where the elites own everything.

Even if you want it to be human readable, you don't need to include the name into every field and use balanced separators.

Any CSV variant would be an improvement already.

What is the cause for spacetime or quantummechanics? Idk but somehow they don’t make it on the list of fundamental forces.

Well, they are not forces.

Of all the games that I would expect to have a global ranking, that is the absolute last.

Well, that conveyor belt looks like it's very slow, so yeah why not pass the time reading some comics on your phone?

Still, it's useless to try to get a board of the right size by nailing together boards you've cut wrong. You throw it out and try to make a better cut on the next one.

For you and anybody else wondering, the GP is a joke and should not be taken seriously.

The reason there isn't a resistor with the value on the meme is because real resistors have error tolerances and are never the exact value on their marks. If you go assembling a card-castle of resistors with the wrong value so that the labels add up to the value you want, you will still have a resistor of the wrong value.

at least in the disciplines that develop weapons

So interested they declared quantum physics an anti-Arian idea that should be exterminated and forced almost everybody with any knowledge that could help in making a nuclear weapon out of the country...

China currently is not communist either.

They stopped killing academics at around the same time they stopped being communist.

As they say... donate a kidney and you are a hero, donate three and somehow you are a monster.

 

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

 

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?

 

The links like [email protected].

I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/[email protected]).

Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

What is the recommended way to use those?
