- Comment on If you were to generated a completely random sequence of sounds, how long would it take to produce music or a voice? 2 days ago:
Well how fast are your producing it? Is it analog or digital? What is the interval of music / voice that is required? Are you normalizing it? Or are there variations in magnitude as well as frequency? Once you have these params then you should be able to create a closed form method and figure it out with statistics. (Now actually finding all those things out is probably difficult, what kind of random generator are you talking about? If it literally spits out a random wave for each tiny time interval then you could be there a while, if your adding random frequencies then it could be technically done very soon for certain definitions of music)

- Comment on Why does everyone here think they're autistic or ADHD? The memes all describe normal human foibles. 3 months ago:
- Reduced stigma led to more diagnosis and less hiding
- decreased socialization and internet escapism increased the percentage of the population exhibiting these symptoms and aided in self diagnosis
- people like to make groups to simplify their world and feel a sense of belonging, see: astrology, personality quizzes, omegaverse, sports
Its a big complicated mess with no clear answer. We all do exhibit these feelings to a certain extent, the magnitude and ceiling for our ability to cope and adapt to them however feeds our definitions, yet everyone can look at this and feel a little but of ourselves.

Use bath towel, then that bath towel becomes bath mat for next shower, when I have no more towels wash them while impatiently waiting to shower.

- Comment on The non-profit helping people from all over the world to become successful game developers 5 months ago:
Friendly reminder that not everything needs to be funneled through the lens of the geopolitical, capitalist, and technological quagmire of our times. People need things to live for, to dream for, to imagine. Even people who are fighting everyday for a better world need some time doing recreation. If it is the requirement of utopia to give up on frivolous yet joyful endeavors then what do you strive for?

I mean they could always use VMs or docker vs locking the actual base level OS

Not to mention it was a rag tag game dev studio who through that hype had their dream come true, did they’re best to deliver it, and have continued to work on it for over a decade now. People are human; and they’ve more than shown it wasn’t ever intended as a grift.

- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 9 months ago:
Depends on how much grease you have— always stored bacon grease in glass jars to use later for greasing pans and given bacony flavor. Secondly, grease pours easily and is liquid when hot, but because it’s hot you can’t pour it into the trash, or wipe it clean with paper towels as mentioned. You have to let it cool which means it becomes more of a mess.
- Comment on The Steam controller was ahead of its time 9 months ago:
I got a $50 GameStop gift card in 2015 as part of some hackathon I went to— which was cool since as a kid didn’t have a credit card or anything; and bought the steam controller with it, would play CS:GO with it between class. Still my favorite controller and one of the only ones that lets you change the turn on sound too.
- Comment on Why does it feel like protesting isn't as "extreme" as it used to be? 9 months ago:
Successful protests have clear policy objectives; also work from home and the lack of large factories that can be shut down by walk outs means that the collective bargaining is slightly weaker in places like USA.

People make connections with objects, same reason why people start hating certain art pieces when they’re told they were made by hitler. It’s perfectly normal— also good for the environment.

- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 1 year ago:
Hitler was not left leaning. He was supported by the old guard and the industrialists like Krupp until he out grew them and then turned on them. At the end of the day he was an autocrat, a totalitarian. Think was Gaddafi liberal? How about Suddam? They both had extensive social programs, but they were not left leaning. In the Weimar Republic it was the right wing courts that tried to censor and throw people in jail, and often let the right wing activists off the hook for similar offenses. Left and right wing groups can both censor and throw people in jail, ie USSR, but generally this is in service of totalitarianism, the ideology at that point is just a husk to keep people in line while people vye for control.
- Comment on The price breakdown of my flight is kinda funny, 80% taxes and fees 1 year ago:
Wait so if you go to the airport without planning for a flight in advance it’s cheaper? I mean seems kinda like a very cross your fingers way of traveling. However could be fun if cost reduction is significant and going on a common flight route.
- Comment on Is there a theoretical limit to profit? 1 year ago:
Well profit can be defined as money_in - money_out therefore the maximum profit is the least amount of money_out with the maximum amount of money_in. So let’s assume that the minimum amount of money_out is 0. So it becomes a question of what is the maximum of money_in well currencies are generally just numbers. So we need to know the total amount of matter in the universe and the value that an organization of that total amount can represent. If the universe is infinite then infinite profit, if not then there is some number. However, at this point we delve into the zone of philosophy as we might need to take some of that matter out to have some witnesses. But still might not buy you a house in 2024.

Dude I think you need a hug. No one chooses to live or die. But I’m glad I’m alive. Billions of years of physics have made us self perpetuating machines. There’s nothing wrong with not having kids. By the same token there’s nothing wrong with having kids. I’ve been through some pain in my life, less so than others I’m sure, but if I had to endure a thousand years of torture for five more minutes of petting my dog I would.
Both pain and pleasure are all temporary; but if we consider that our lives are on average less violent and longer than those who came before us; it seems that the good parts of life are winning. No all wrongs are righted, there are new evils and old evils.
Would you deny the hunter gatherer the joys of seeing their children’s first steps though in contrast we know their life will be short, uncomfortable, and painful? If not then I do not see how one can justify denying a modern family the same. We can argue about population control, but on a macro level it is not wrong to have children.
