  • More code = more better

    Jump

  • The implementation is not very exciting, I capture a variable in python. It could have been done more cleanly.

    The proof is this. But, I could have made mistakes, it was many years ago.

    Note that in python you'll never be able to run is_even(5) the stack cannot handle it

    Edit: daaaamn, that variable is ugly as hell. I would never do things like that now.

  • For a time on Reddit (some years ago when I still used it) there was a trend of finding the worst way of implementing is_even(x: int) -> bool. My contribution to that was a function that ran Ackerman(x,x) flipping a Boolean at every iteration, and check if it was true or false at the end.

    It works btw, I will find the proof later

  • What's the most repairable "thing" you own?

    Jump

  • my cheap ass salvaged speakers. I got them from a friend who got them from her father who got them from a school janitor who got them from a school that was throwing them out. Each of those step did some "repair", until they got to me and my roommate, and we undid every previous "repair". we are still using them

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

  • How I understood it was: at the beginning of the movie the guy says that he likes to remember things his way, not how they actually happened, that suggests that his story is unreliable. He kills is wife because she was cheating and gets caught and sentenced to death. He then hallucinates a delusion where he actually is an entirely different guy (he turns into another person while in the cell and gets released) with some parallels with the true story. This guy is cooler, a prodigy mechanic, a womanizer, and his rival is an insane mobster. In his delusion he kills a pimp who worked for the mobster and that's how the police find him and chase after him. In the final scene he is running away driving in the night, but from his point of view we see the sparks from the electric chair, suggesting he never left the cell.

  • There's also Control 2 though 🥺

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

    Jump

  • I watched lost highways at movie night a couple of weeks ago. It was my first Lynch movie.

    I despise it when the plot twist in a movie is that the guy imagined everything. And the movie was comically slow. I'm one who enjoys the process of cobbling together self referential details to get to the broader picture. And yet the disappointment of finding out it was all a delusion ruined the entire thing.

    I didn't like it, wouldn't recommend. Sooner or later I'll watch another Lynch movie, maybe I'll change my mind.

    I just wanted to vent

  • Also considering that the movie does actually explain how things work

  • It's the kind of wording that "electrochemistry" and "Physical instrument" use in Disco Elysium

  • No it won’t

  • It might be real, just bad. The stitches might just be holding the folded rim of the leather, while the bolts might be holding the leather onto the metal. Still, the bolts look small for the purpose.

  • I wasn't entirely earnest. A more precise question would be "why the fuck an EDC tactical wallet"

  • they are focused

  • Call them Mr Boombaspis

  • No it won’t

  • What is that? It looks interesting but it also might be an AI image of something that doesn't exists

    Edit: what the fuck is an EDC tactical wallet? I thought it was some kind of rugged electronic thing

  • C'mon they could have at least placed it in place of the menu key instead of rctrl... It's like they want you to hit it by accident

  • Lemmy be like

    Jump

  • Mine was born in 1939, definitely in "gaga gugu" age at the time, and she's considered old as grandmas go. When talking to someone somewhere around my age (the likes of which I'm more likely to have a conversation, especially about cooking), I can expect their grandma to be less than a decade older than mine. So still very young at the time.

  • The post is about when you are a tech savvy person, and go to a relative's house for the holiday and see some piece of tech with default configuration. Often tech companies (especially TV companies) enable buzzword technology to trick non tech savvy people into believing there was an improvement where there actually wasn't. Often, inspection with a more educated eye reveals that the result actually looks bad and ruins the original media (unless it was already terrible).

    In this case the gripe is with frame smoothing technologies, which look smeared and ruin details and timing of movies. But to someone who doesn't know better it looks like "whoa, it really is smoother, I'm gonna smooth all the smoothing with my new extra smooth smoother; the smoothness salesman sold me real smooth on this" (I'm calling out the dishonest seller, not the consumer with this).

    So when the tech savvy person sees the swindled relative, they try to fix up the situation disabling the bullshit, but every brand gives it a different patented bullshit name.

    It's worth noting that inevitably, as soon as you leave the house the relatives will:

    • Not notice a thin
    • Call you because the TV "doesn't do the thing it did before anymore" and you have to explain that you did it and why it's better until they ask you to put it back
    • Spend too much time trying to pot back the thing on their own, making even worse choices along the way

    To actually help them you should have been involved in the choice of device, but if you ever got involved in a choice you would automatically become the designated tech purchase advisor forever and ever.

  • The Sensory Biology of Plants

    Jump

  • Wouldn't it be cool tho? You could go up to a tree that's super old and ask it about the world, and it would take an entire day to spell a word in a language you don't understand. And house plants would be chit chatting and making all kinds of noise inaudible to us, kinda like WiFi, but with sound instead of light. It's like a fantasy setting
