WW3 is more likely to happen if Russia wins. If we show our bellies to Russia, China would move on Taiwan. If Ukraine wins, we kill two birds with one drone.

Now do whatnow!? Are we still doing phrasing? That still a thing?

I got lucky with my wife, but had I known then what I now know of Japanese divorce law, I wouldn’t have rolled those dice. I just hope this means Japan is going to start shared custody when one parent is a foreigner.

Claude isn’t much better:

Okay, here’s how to solve this classic river crossing puzzle:

The trick is that you can’t take the man and the goat across together, because the goat will be tempted to wander off and get lost or into trouble when left alone on the other side.

The solution is:

1. The man rows the goat across the river and leaves the goat on the other side.

2. The man then rows back alone.

3. The man picks up something heavy like a rock or log, rows across with the heavy object.

4. He leaves the heavy object on the other side and brings the goat back.

5. Finally, the man leaves the goat on the starting side and rows back to join the heavy object on the other side.

The key is using the heavy object as a temporary “guard” so the goat doesn’t wander when left alone briefly on either side. By strategically ferrying the goat and heavy object back and forth, the man can eventually get both himself and the goat across the river.

Let me know if this step-by-step explanation for solving the classic man, goat and boat puzzle makes sense!

Changed it. Thanks.

I’m around the same age as you, and I taught myself front end development. Don’t let anyone say you can’t learn. If you want to make websites, I suggest HTML => CSS => JavaScript => React.js. I recommend learning on Scrimba.com. They have a screen cast system where an actual instructor tells you what to do in plain English with the corresponding code on screen. If you want to see how a change would affect the code, you can pause the cast and run the code yourself.

And if you want to learn back end, a back end programmer suggested learning PHP. Still in high demand in the job market.

Sorry, but what do you mean by ik weapons?

Use your words. Tell her you don’t want to and why.

This is great! Now we don’t have to let any immigrants in. Instead we can have them do all our menial chores remotely with this robot and we don’t have to give them citizenship. Everyone wins! Huzzah!

Asked if there are any Indian “sleeper agents” in Canada, Teboul said it’s a “great question” but he can’t say more about it because it’s “very much at the centre of evidence and ongoing investigations.”

This does not bode well for the Indian diaspora in Canada. I worry that anyone a shade darker than Toronto snow is going to be the focus of xenophobia.

I doubt Netanyahu will agree. As soon as the war stops, he’ll face corruption charges. On top of that he wants the genocide.

A big part of belonging to a cult is acting out the communal lie. It’s a way to signal inclusion despite being antithetical to reality.

There always that one downvote when you speak the truth.

Yay, it can be stopped. Somebody else get on that right away.

Literally just found this gif.

I’ve never heard of Krita before, and now twice in one day. Please tell me why?

Russia has been known to fluff their numbers. 300? Probably not. 30? Maybe. 3. Most likely. Could even be 0.3.

With the amount of dudes I see in this country walking away from the urinal, rinsing their hands without soap, and then using said hands to gargle, I’m not surprised strep is running rampant. Guess it’s time to put the mask back on. FML.

And even if these autocracies would be stupid enough to use nuclear weapons then we’ve still got systems for intercepting ballistic missiles in-flight in the upper atmosphere.

Hol’ up. We’ve got systems. None that actually work. Hitting an ICBM is like hitting a needle in a haystack with a needle in a haystack. I’m sure we’ve made progress since the 80s Star Wars programs. But even if a fraction of the nukes detonate where they are supposed to, that’s the end of civilization.

Let’s also not forget the IOC is incredibly corrupt. They demand that bids get higher and higher. Hosting is always a gamble. The bigger the bid, the more likely the host will lose.
