  • I checked out the linktree link on there and it had some docs about how PSL supports AES and another actually pretty high effort critique from an anonymous substack. That one was actually a good read and had some points about the party not getting very good results for the amount of funding it has, not implementing DemCent correctly, and a few other things. I don't think their criticisms are fully accurate (they say that PSL has been ineffective with its protests and election campaigns, but they are the biggest cadre org in the US which is itself useful) but it's worth reading.

  • Hitting David Duke with the "yikes" millennial stare and a thumbs down after he says he thinks the Holocaust isn't real but wishes it was.

  • I mean, I was in the other thread where you were talking about this and replied to one of your comments with a FAQ site. COVID is still a thing and it's very reasonable to continue taking precautions.

  • Both can be true though, although the whole idea of a "dictator" as a type of political leader can be more of a hindrance of one's analysis than a useful category.

  • Tailism

  • My original Python implementation did it the "check every other object" way, but the way I'm doing it now is by breaking up the play area into zones and having each object only check for collisions inside its current + adjacent zones. I implemented that in Python and it got me a pretty big speedup, although I didn't properly quantify the speed increase at the time.

    Yo, cool! Then you did pretty much what I was suggesting. There might be some further optimizations to this based on changing what data structures you use, but you have the core idea down.

  • If he sells it while the Ukrainian family was renting it he will have exploited them. He gets the whole value of the sale for free.

  • The NSDAP also was as American as apple pie in some ways.

  • Do you have a nested loop through all collision objects in your collision system?

    You know, something like:

     py
        
    
    for object1 in objects:
       for object2 in objects:
          if object1.collides(object2):
             #do collision logic
    
      

    Because this would explain why you're only doing 20x better in terms of capacity. The Rust code is probably running roughly 400x faster, but each additional object in your system costs more than the last (because it means every single other object now has to check collision with one more thing). In total that comes out to meaning that speeding up the calculation by a factor of k only multiplies your capacity by a factor of sqrt(k). This is because it's an O(n^2) algorithm.

    If you wanna learn how you can take that 1000 and make it 20,000 without multithreading, you could check out Sebastian Lague's videos where he makes a fluid simulation. There's one where he makes a particle based simulation and he starts it off by simulating forces between all particles, but he optimizes it later by splitting up his simulation into square tiles. A particle then only needs to apply force to particles in its own tile and adjacent tiles, but no farther than that.

  • Is there a resource where I can learn about how to do something like this with my inheritance?

  • IMO the fair amount doesn't cover taxes. Property taxes in the US are mostly a measure to cool down the rate at which landowners accumulate wealth from land value rising. Since the renter isn't getting equity in your scenario, if the renter is paying the property taxes then the landlord is profiting from the system where every other landlord hoards housing to increase its price.

    Another way to look at it is that if the property tax didn't exist at all in this scenario, the landlord would still be accumulating wealth without working at the expense of the people who have to buy the house later, i.e. they're exploiting them (or, more likely, the future tenants who will pay off the future landlord's mortgage). Even with the property tax existing the house is going to gain more value than what the owner loses to property tax, but that's somewhat outweighed by inflation.

    Inside of me there are two wolves. One is saying that this is perfectly ironic wording. The other wolf is telling the first to read Masses, Elites, and Rebels: The Theory of Brainwashing

  • The good Vladimir Ilyich John Brown General Muk Muk would shoot everyone here stab everyone in Harper's Ferry walk everyone involved here into the desert.

  • For the ones that were given after his 2007 case, i.e. when he was already known as an infamous sex criminal, I could also imagine that they were from people having mental episodes. There's a lot of traumatized people who might project experiences they had onto someone they're seeing on TV or that they read about. I'm not an expert but I think that kind of thing can happen during a psychotic episode.
