It’s unknown.

It can equally be possible, impossible or not worth it.

Interstellar rocks crashing at you with velocity of 0.1c might hurt a lot.

I would not like my government spending 99% of everybodies income for 100 generations, just to send one human to proxima centauri.

Growth and efficiency gains are not guaranteed, and will eventually stop. (If you take the mass of universe, put it into mc^2, and assume 5% energy consumption increase per year you get 2k years to consume whole universe worth of energy)

We can’t just assume that humans will reach Proxima Centauri.

To solve the issue we must answer several questions: What’s the alternative? How much it would cost for whole class and members of classmate families?

Yup. Java 1.8 is humongous leap to the right direction.

I’m stll waiting for the revival of the cousin, underhanded c contest.

Why court system is relevant for the currency?

I assume British courts can enforce contracts that deal in dollars.

Eg. Some brand used in a movie.

Usually brands pay for that screen time, but it’s not very obvious that it’s payed advertising.

Real men would dig Route 66 canal instead of Panama.

No idea. Read only is good enough.

Reasons why:

Corporation does not care about life per se, it looks at impact on profit.

Corporation has option to sue offender into oblivion (by thoroughly writing contracts)

Parent is perfectly right.

> cultural shift toward being selfish

I enjoy ice cream so damn all other opinions :)

Or more education.

I think you are missing the forest for the trees.

I do understand that it was not the first first salvo.

And that blockading policy and financing of anything but fatah and bunch of other stuff influenced today situation.

But you must admit that oct 7 was unusual escalation. Which now are used as the reason for current idf actions.

If there is a lot of malnutrition, population numbers will change without migration.

> Once one side of a war becomes dominant, it just ends.

Sorry for being pedanto, but other side must stop resisting for war to end. Guerrilla warfare is quite usual when there is great power imbalance.

I think the parent meant there were no shooting before the genocide started. Jewish resistances were reactive to nazi actions.

I.e. there was not even a possibility that nazis were defending. While somebody from Palestine side did fire the opening salvo on oct7.

Not sure I get your point.

Try the same, but opposite argument.

Something like: Would you wear a t-shirt saying “Palestine is treated unfairly” to oct7 memorial or airport/border crossing?

> and that many people who express that sentiment wouldn't be expressing it if the powers were flipped

That is definitely not true.

Are you really of this opinion or are you trying to incite replies? :)

Link was used to establish that this concept is usually called “gender”. (I felt there was a dispute on that; might be my projection)

Regarding anecdotes:

In my native language all objects have grammatical gender (feminine and masculine).

If I would write a children book natively, about objects that come to life, I would automatically assign their social gender based on grammatical gender.

Because language hints it that way. Pronouns, adjectives, participles, all must be adjusted based on objects gender (exactly like it would be done when talking about a person).

I enjoyed Project Hail Mary a lot. Would you recommend me “the Abyss”?

I’m pedantic: s/rational/romantic|idealist|not-cycical-person/

Except for all the languages that actually call the grammatical concept: gender

Edit: see German example: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammatical_gender_in_German

Lot of languages assign gender to objects.

One should control for foreign language knowledge.

People who hold them, sued Bob Ross’s son for using “Ross” i.e. his last name.

Slimy people.

My view of Uncle Bob is that his advise is attempt improve the average situation, even if taken literally as a gospell.

It’s better that everybody do route tdd, than no tests at all. It’s better to have all methods exactly 3 lines of code, than all methods being 3 pages long.

Uncle bob preaches better baseline, experience will teach all the nuance.

Disclaimer: I dont do tdd. But it’s nice method of work to know.

Let’s do that. Still, this hash table, would be doing reasoning?

I bet it was “bash” (with sed and rsync)

Hypothetically.

Imagine a simple, but humongous hash table, that maps every possible prompt of 20000 letters to the most appropriate answer in current time.

(How? Let’s say outsourcing to east asia or aliens…)

Would you say such mechanism is doing reasoning?

On the other hand: nobody can formally refute that a stone is reasoning/thinking.

Lack of definition seems to be ideal substrate for marketing and hype.
