  • Whats your hot take on something that doesnt matter at all?

    Jump

  • I think you mean tuples, because (1) == 1, but (1, ) == tuple([1]).

  • Whats your hot take on something that doesnt matter at all?

    Jump

  • Many programming languages allow "trailing commas":

     
        
my_list = [ 1, 2, 3, ]

    This is wonderful because you can treat the last element like the previous ones instead of having to make an exception. I use it all the time, even when it provides no benefit, and I think we should even start allowing it in natural language.

  • What the most memorable moment from any video game?

    Jump

  • Hey, you're finally awake.

  • What the most memorable moment from any video game?

    Jump

  • "It's a good life we lead, Luigi."

    "The best. May it never change."

    "And may it never change us."

    Goosebumps every time. I'll never forgive Bowser for what happened.

  • Does it get windy in New York City?

    Jump

  • Don't know, I've never been to the US.

  • What's your favourite menu music in a game?

    Jump

  • The life is strange start menu music makes me feel things.

  • What the fuck is existence? What even is the truth? How does one know their parents are even real, and not just another actor in an IRL "Truman Show". Isn't history just another story?

    Jump

  • Not taking a risk is a risk. That's how I see it.

    Jump

  • Yes, opportunity cost is also a cost.

  • 4th dimension doesn't exist because even 1D or 2D themselves are not real.

    Jump

  • 1D and 2D are just mathematical abstractions.

    So are all dimensions. The number of dimensions is just an attribute of a vector space, and vector spaces are just models we humans define to describe natural phenomenona. You can claim that some of these models are more useful than others. But at no point does it make sense to claim that a model "exists" or not. There would be no meaning to such a statement, it would contain no information. Not wrong, just nonsensical.

  • Would you trust an open source software maintained by a developer who you disagree with politically (or otherwise don't like the developer)?

    Jump

  • I'd see it as a seal of quality if the developer is a crank.

  • ill be at your house in 10 minutes. how will you entertain me?

    Jump

  • Cheap ramen and splitscreen minecraft bro

  • It's weird that we "take a shit". I don't know what other people are doing, but i definitely leave a shit, not take it

    Jump

  • I don't know what kinds of allegations you're trying to insinuate here. This isn't about me anyway.

  • It's weird that we "take a shit". I don't know what other people are doing, but i definitely leave a shit, not take it

    Jump

  • That's irrelevant. But if someone leaves it, someone else will have to take it, is what I'm saying. Like in general.

  • It's weird that we "take a shit". I don't know what other people are doing, but i definitely leave a shit, not take it

    Jump

  • So what do you think happens to all the shit you leave around? Someone's gotta take it.

  • Why is it so common to be interested in true crime when at the same time you're disturbed by it?

    Jump

  • And if you had a dangerous person in your tribe, you better also paid very close attention to their behavior.

  • Can I block Tiktok purely by DNS?

    Jump

  • Not sure if this is relevant for your case, but make sure you're also blocking subdomains of the specified domains. Adguard for example allows doing that easily via regex-like rules.

  • Epstein puts my morality into perspective

    Jump

  • Like you said, society's version of morality. So it can be a very important distinction because your own version of morality might differ. Not being aware of this distinction is dangerous because it stops people from developing their own moral compass. This own morality is more firm and can be relied on in the absence of shame, or even when society encourages behavior one finds immoral.

    I'm even gonna go on a wilder speculation here and claim that one of the driving factors behind humanity's worst atrocities was that large portions of society who had the potential in them for a firm morality rooted in empathy and love never developed this potential.

    On a less import note, not being aware of this distinction can breed a lot of resentment and unhappiness, if someone is constantly compelled to follow rules that they, deep down, consider to be bullshit.

    Of course that doesn't mean I encourage people to just disregard society's version of morality and lightly assume that they know better.

    Edit: just noticed your username, I hope that furriosa is doing well <3

  • Epstein puts my morality into perspective

    Jump

  • Are you really feeling guilty about not tipping because of the moral implications, or do you just feel socially shamed? Important distinction.

  • I have autism but im not 100% sure what to do with my life?

    Jump

  • You will ultimately have to answer this yourself, but here are some personal thoughts that might help you:

    • hobbies are nice, but I wouldn't force one just for the sake of having one
    • cooking, diet and exercise are always good picks to spend time and energy on
    • you'll probably have at least four decades of working full time in your life, so I wouldn't rush getting into a job if you're not financially dependent on it. There's also part time jobs and internships.
    • if you're in a country with cheap or free college, there's a lot to gain and little to lose by just trying it out
    • depending on how good your social skills are, having an autism-friendly environment can be a massive improvement to your life quality. Some choices will be more effective for finding this environment than others. For example, you might have an easier time making friends if you're studying CS and getting into DnD than if you're working in sales and getting into football. That's of course a broad generalization and again something you have to figure out yourself, but it's helpful to be aware of this as a factor for your life quality.
    • most importantly, what interests you? Maybe you even have an interest where grinding the basics comes naturally to you, not just the superficial fun parts? Which fields interest you can also be a factor when deciding whether you want to go to college.
