Trailblazing Braille Taser

FWIW, I would never ask someone about an injury during a job interview. I’m just a stranger on the internet, though, so who knows.

The Orville was actually pretty good. This may be heresy, but it felt more like Star Trek to me than some of the nu-Trek shows coming out. And for the record I can’t stand Family Guy.

… I’m not really sure about that one, never mind.

Holy shit

Godly excrement exists. QED.

I wrote my comment not to antagonize you but to point out that you’re asking the wrong questions. I failed to articulate that, and I’m sorry for being harsh.

Your prior comment indicated that you have used hash tables in Java, which were very fast. You said that your program accessed the hash tables, but did not “search” the table. These operations are the same thing, which led me to believe you’re out of your depth.

This last comment asks me how much this paper’s contribution speeds up an average program. You’re asking the wrong question, and you seem to be implying the work was useless if it doesn’t have an immediate practical impact. This is a theoretical breakthrough far over my head. I scanned the paper, but I’m unsurprised they haven’t quantified the real-world impact yet. It’s entirely possible that despite finding an asymptotic improvement, the constant factors (elided by the big O analysis) are so large as to be impractical… or maybe not! I think we need to stay tuned.

Again, sorry for being blunt. We all have to start somewhere. My advice is to be mindful of where the edge of your expertise lies and try to err on the side of not devaluing others’ work.

Everyone prepare for your minds to be blown:

Sorry to be blunt, but you don’t know what you’re talking about.

There’s no emoticon for what I’m feeling!

Let’s agree to disagree

You just gotta accept that people are going to say thought-terminating cliches to you. You only live once, man, and you gotta do what you gotta do. Que sera sera.

You only feel the ones that you can feel. The goddamn ninja mosquitoes permeate the air we breathe. They’re constantly feeding on us — sapping our life force — and we never even notice.

Thank you for honoring the ancient memes. I pray that Katy, t3h PeNgU1N oF d00m, accepts this offering.

This stupid antique computer is the reason my iOS keyboard autocorrects “emacs” to “eMacs”

Well you see, that’s the hilarious part. You won’t have those spiders anymore, the astronaut will. Floating in his tin can. Far above the moon. Planet earth is blue and there’s nothing he can do. 🎸🎸🎸👏👏

False. Attack their groin. The groin is the weakest part of the body.

Is this a joke about bugs?

To be clear, I’m not saying she should go free! She’s clearly a danger to others. I just don’t see any value in further punishment — if anything, she needs therapy and rehabilitation, if that’s even possible.

If you meant evil in a spiritual sense, then I’d be very curious to hear your thoughts on why classifying people or actions as evil is necessary.

I deeply disagree. I think most healthy parents would probably die for their kids. There’s no price that would make me consider poisoning a baby. Ultimately, the payoff was A$60k which is about $37k USD — not exactly a life changing amount.
