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

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.

It’s a popular strategy for Fascists.

the Nazis and the OG Fascists did it, and so did the communist Chinese.

So do the Democrats…

I hope they fix their system, but I have no idea how they could.

Have you seen a mathematician claim that? Because there’s entire algebra they created just so it becomes a fraction.

And it denotes an operation that gives you that fraction in operational algebra…

Instead of making it clear that d is an operator, not a value, and thus the entire thing becomes an operator, physicists keep claiming that there’s no fraction involved. I guess they like confusing people.

About the title; my condolences.

The hell of one idea that just won’t die. It was created out of thin air by sheer force of racist speculation, and known to be wrong for close to a century. Yet people still keep repeating it.

Oh, excel is a bad tool. There’s no argument about it.

Just look at the meme about dates somebody posted just around the same time as this. Excel has that kind of shit about everything. It does solve a good problem, but the tool is a piece of crap.

Lots of "maybe"s, I see…

On which of those application types there are developers that write most of one of the halves, but do not touch the other half?

(Oh, yeah, on the phone apps, but only the ones that are a web site cached on the phone.)

The entire meme is about web-dev. That split between backend and frontend isn’t anywhere else. (And is stupid for the web too, but well, that’s what web-dev do.)

maybe that’s all the customer needs

The food truck is often better than the restaurant experience in every dimension… The same is valid for the app analogies.

How many people worked on it is not a dimension that counts.

It’s a nicer syntax for inline styles.

If you want to use inline styles everywhere, it’s great.

I guess some people write code, and some people also read and maintain it.

It was already around the peak of the US empire, yeah. You may be biased.

That excerpt does nothing even similar to claiming the definition makes things clear.

I have no idea what l is, but given the context of axiomatization of arithmetic, I’m almost sure the author picked a fair and precise example.
