marcos,

WTF is the deal with US states banning masks? Are they going to ban washing your hands next?

marcos,

As if a mere post would be enough…

marcos,

No, we didn’t. It wasn’t remotely close.

marcos,

After the Jedi were wiped, and both were replaced by people that didn’t give a shit about philosophical purity and just tried to help people directly.

marcos,

Wait, are we talking about “mirror” from what side?

marcos,

It is a good one. It was at least amusing.

But it would probably go better if there weren’t 20 other jokes sharing the same 4 panels.

marcos,

Wait, Disco time travels again?

marcos,

I guess so. I doubt it would be the weirdest thing on the series.

They blasted everyone around too anyway, so there may not have been anybody to explain it to.

marcos,

I started with some articles on string theory

Yeah, that’s a mistake.

Unless you understand the working theories out there, you gain nothing by going deep into speculative ideas.

marcos,

AFAIK, every single idea from string theory that could be tested was rejected. And the theory was made more complex, less predictive so that it could still work without the testable idea.

marcos, (edited )

See? It’s cyclic! People are even confirming it!

It’s certain people, society collapses every 11 years! Learn how to protect yourself here!

marcos,

All the noise I see is from people insisting that Rust developers are noisy, and their favorite language is much better types-don’t-solve-bugs-undefined-behavior-is-fine-and-memory-errors-are-not-a-problem.

Actual Rust developers have been silent for years.

marcos,

Looks like a real educational problem.

marcos,

That second one is absolutely disgusting.

It’s not a reason to get mad, though.

marcos,

Yes. The future serial killer is clearly the person that designed this shit. The one waving is just a useful idiot.

marcos,

It doesn’t work when nobody lives around either.

The only way this can work is if both all cars are from the 30s, only able to move at 50 km/h, and nobody lives around.

marcos,

Imagine a roundabout where most of the traffic flows straight on only one of the streets. Things would improve a lot of you gave that street the right of way and cut a shortcut on the middle of the roundabout, wouldn’t them?

(/s by the way, but a lot of transit engineers to really believe in this. Unironically.)

marcos,

I was not joking when I said a lot of transit engineers believe on it.

That one is one of the least bad I’ve seen. Try imagine it on the cross of two roads (actual high-speed roads, country-side). I’ve seen many of those.

marcos,

That second picture of yours is just a normal roundabout. Try making one of the roads pass directly through it. And don’t change the signaling.

I’ve noticed that the tram line cuts the traffic in 3 points. What is the speed of that street? Anyway, the tram line is clearly signed in a way that can be noticed on the photo. And every car there is making a weird curve, nobody is speeding anyway.

marcos,

The court is useless, and it’s by design.

Yeah, people repeating it for the world to hear is good, not bad. But a useful version of that court isn’t something viable.

marcos,

You can’t have Courage in a cartoon and not scare it to death.

marcos,

Yeah, I would rather not ask either.

Don’t ask what all that weight does to the running surfaces either. Some things it’s better to just not know.

marcos,

“Mercury” and “arc” on the same sentence do really, really not make one imagine something that perfectly fine to use or be around in operation.

marcos,

Ah, come-on, why do you think Eliza could do that 60 years ago?

(It couldn’t. It’s at most 40 years old technology, and way more likely just 30. Even though you could program Eliza to do something like this, it would be way too specific for any use.)

marcos,

Application specific buffers are the first thing I disable on emacs. The OS one isn’t just integrated with every other normal piece of software, it’s also more powerful and easier to use.

… at least on my Linux, YMMV.
