  • I mean, I like Longlegs, even though a lot of people were upset by the 3rd act. I think this movie is outside of that "guilty pleasure" area. The Monkey knows what it is and does it well.

  • Sam Raimi's version of Spider-Man. He's an agent of the common man, and obviously someone with super powers would be amazing. However he isn't so powerful that he couldn't be subdued if he were to become evil. The only problem is I don't live in NYC...

  • Biggest con of KDE + Krohnkite (to me) is no text-based config. I really have no desire to pour through the GUI to set up all my keybinds. I've tried this setup before, and honestly I mostly like it. However anytime I want to change something I just hate having to click through a menu with my mouse. The search bar helps, but often you'll spend a lot of time guessing what the devs decided to name a setting. I went back to Sway and have no regrets. Though I'll admit I wish there was something that was basically Sway with the benefits you mentioned here.

  • Middle-class white person grows up to do middle-class white people things. PhD portion of the story seemed promising but fell short of expectations. At least the lead couple is kind of funny. 2/5 stars

  • Whole wheat toast topped with peanut butter, sorghum syrup, and bananas. The toast has fiber and the peanut butter has protein. The bananas and the tiniest drop of sorghum add enough sweetness to round out the flabor but contain less added sugar than most cereal.

  • OK, but not everyone produces technical debt at the same rate and not everyone takes responsibility for what they produce, so the point is still relevant.

  • I don't really see how what you detailed in your summary connects to your thesis. How are things like more registers and less cycles for branches related to using RISC over CISC? It reads more like the microarchitecture of the MIPS is better rather than the approach of the ISA.

  • I think the real reason you haven't dated a girl is you've never gotten to know any. You wouldn't think like this otherwise. A majority of couples I know have equal relationships with emotionally vulnerable guys. Your last statement on touching grass fits the bill.

  • The IEEE standard actually does not dictate a rounding policy

  • I guess your battery isn't overheating?

  • I personally recommend Multi Launcher, which is KISS with just a few more features that stay out of your way if you don't want them

  • In Columbus, you would be considered just a normal guy. You could easily find a community there.

  • Cleaning also takes less time, especially if you include all the planning that goes into cooking. Then if you consider the amount of time it'd take for the same meal to be made by other members of the household, you start to see that cleaning is actually a bargain. You also have to remember that even when you enjoy cooking, it is stil exhausting. They have less energy to clean than those who didn't cook.

    Obviously there is a limit. If the cook is making an excessive mess due to doing some particularly fancy cooking out of ambition, they should probably help out. But if you regularly reap the benefits of someone else's skill in the kitchen, yes, you should help clean.

  • Oh, I'm aware of the irony of reviewing this as an adult male, haha.

  • The idea was solid, but execution was poor. Super fast pacing, storyline is very predictable and basically all development of the characters is told not shown. They basically choose to have the main conflict be magically resolved instead of writing a resolution. What really shines is the animation. The humor is pretty solid too. There's a better version of this movie, but it's not the version we got.

  • The amount of CPU time compiling code is usually negligible compared to CPU time at runtime. Your comparison only really works if you are comparing against something like Rust, where less bugs are introduced due to certain guarantees by the language.

    Regarding "language constructs" it really depends on what you mean. For example using numpy in python is kind of cheating because numpy is implemented in C. However using something like the algorithm libraries in Rust woulf be considered fair game since they are likely written in Rust itself.

  • Addiction was simply an example of why a homeless person might not be able to handle money reponsibly. It was not an assumption about what made them homeless, nor was it a judgement on their character. I don't disagree with anything your saying, so I don't see the problem. And I don't refuse giving any aid. I just think giving to an organization is more likely to help a person than giving to them directly. Maybe if I was handing out in volumes of $1k it'd be enough to change soneone's like, but obvioualy most can't afford to do that.

  • Acknowledging crippling dependence != judgement

    Do you know how addiction works?

  • I am not responding to all this but I cannot let this slide:

    So this is another disengenous oversimplification. You will take the position that a homeless person can sustain a hard drug addiction from panhandling, yet they would not be able to afford a motel room for the night, or an extended stay, and begin their climb back into society. This is purely a moral judgement on your part.

    You acknowledge that dependence is a need (which I agree with!) but you think that an addict will magically overcome their addiction when handed the money they could use to sustain the addiction? The justification you're using for handing them money (i.e. relieving withdrawal) is the same reason I don't expect an addict to buy a night at the motel over their drugs. The reasons are biological not moral. You must be operating on another definition of moral or something.

  • That’s kind of an impossible question to answer because the “they” is unknowable in your question.

    Exactly. The easiest thing to do is ask them what they want. Personally when they ask for money, I tell them I don't hand out money and ask them if there's something else they need. It is a good way to actually have a conversation with them and get them something they need.

    I also want to be clear, I'm not going to judge anyone for giving money to someone in need. It is better than not trying to help at all. I just personally believe it is better not to give homeless persons money.
