We keep us safe. Defense against bad actors is everyone’s resposibility. The kid who runs off with the ball doesn’t get invited to play anymore. I don’t know where the idea anarchists are pascifist comes from, but the answer is shoot back. No Gods, no masters.

I was a socdem once. My elders told me I would move right when I paid taxes. Now, I’m “friends” with a kangaroo until the revolution or something. From what I understand, the kangaroo believes in a classful, stateful communism.

Babies are great. Learning about healthcare is great. Supporting education is great. Looks progressive enough.

Reading over Fulbright, it looks like it is for graduate studies. The outreach to people in need of $5,000, who are pursuing graduate studies, seems oriented toward a specific class. I’ve never been rich, but have heard stories about nannies. I’m sure raising kids is easier with money.

Republican or Democrat, the policy seems to favor rich over poor with the graduate studies requirement. Government handouts for the rich are nothing new. Seems a progressive policy if you can raise children while pursuing graduate studies. Probably still money ahead just going with a vasectomy.

I write software collectively. Sometimes code needs to be fixed. Let’s say Fred wrote some code that needs to be fixed. I fix it and create a merge request. My reviewer, Mark, looks over my merge request and allows it into the collective repository. Fred, being too attached to her code, comes over yelling. Fred has not learned that software is a collective experience.

We collectively own the technology and creative works. Under capitalism, we must individually own that work to make money.

I suppose the issue is the private ownership of the algorithm. Lemmy is a way to distribute ownership even though I think each instance is privately owned. It might be worthwhile to create a platform abstracting the data from the algorithm allowing the end user a choice of recommendation algorithm.

There is no money in it. Enclosure of the recommendation algorithm is profitable.

If there are recommendation systems, maybe an open API for requests is required. Thereby a user can choose an algorithm. I would go as far as open sourcing it all.

I agree that the current form puts too much power in the hands of a few.

We should only consume domestic media. Good thing the Bible is domestic media. \s

How is there less risk to Americans on a platform like X(itter) instead of TikTok?

Nice to see nerdcore on Lemmy. There’s so much out there, but here’s some variety from the subgenre hackercore.

I’ve been thinking about the self-immolation of Aaron Bushnell. The extreme form of protest rattled people that oppose the genocide. Genocide supporters used the act as a way to point at service members that don’t support genocide. The people that needed the message of his protest do not care. I contend Aaron Bushnell could have done more by continuing life.

I am not you. I do not know your story. I do know you brighten up my Lemmy feed with your posts. Your message reaches me.

I have a gallows sense of humor about the current systemic issues. I have been watching a police officer patrol the neighborhood in a SUV with a massive rack of lights on top. Welcome to the future, I suppose.

Politically, “power to” is important to me. I feel empowered knowing that I have the “power to” end my life, but have chosen not to, because we are stronger together in the fight against over-policing and the heirarchical power structures that use forms of violence to restrict our “power to” do things.

I medicate with music. Since you are already in a dark place, here is music I medicate with to feel empowered when I am reaching the end of my rope. It is not what you would get from a crisis line.

This life is fucked, this life is shit We never even asked for it So with that I’ll do what I please Spray my brains all over the trees Only thing waiting on the other side Is six feet of dirt, there’s no surprise to hide

• Give Up / Vas a Morir by Akil Godsey of End It

And if I die as a partisan, oh bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao and if I die as a partisan then you must bury me.

• Critique of the Gotha Programme (1875) by Karl Marx

I do have disdain for the phases laid out by Marx, but this slogan is wisdom.

You are right. The video shows a dermal electroencephalogram (EEG). The article talks about the “60 Minutes” video using an array being an inspiration. Both an array or EEG are tech from the 2010’s. I am enthralled by the tech/research and wish it paid better.

Seems valid enough. The rhyming with USSR is some Putin and Stalin. DOGE is consolidating power under some leader from independent agencies.

Further, assuming intelligence is measurable by an IQ test.

I have never heard this version. Still addresses elimination of heirarchy. Happy New Year and thank you.

“No gods, no masters” also applies to demagogues like Pinker or Dawkins. Disconnecting an idea from the people associated with bringing it into your life can be difficult.

New feature with terrible syntax. There are features of every language I choose not to use. As a C++ developer, I would choose not to use this syntax, so that my team can write better designed code. However, I am an oddball on my team for loving trailing return types. In peer review, the schlong operator i.e. ---> would only be used where it makes sense which should be nowhere.

Peer reviewing this seriously would require knowing more context. Instinct tells me MyClass**** is probably allocated from the heap. A possible reason for so many levels of indirection are jagged arrays. Maybe the function only gets the first element of each level of the arrays. The function name doesn’t make that clear. This is poorly designed. Please re-design/re-write. I will happily review those changes. I expect unit tests to show example use cases.

I would suggest using a stack allocated array with sentinels for missing values to improve cache coherency. Without context, I assume looping over the jagged structure will be common. Loading more into cache should improve efficiency in loops, but benchmarks are required.

Wait… I should join the crowd. So I say, “down with C++” and up with some safe alternative. Maybe rust: https://github.com/Speykious/cve-rs.

Lenin consolidated hierarchical power. Lenin’s Testament may have been an apology.

My speculation is there will be a cooling off period for voting. I’m often wrong.

How is this not equivalent to “don’t use shovels, dig with your hands”? Gatekeeping technology… so anarchist. /s

Propaganda of the Deed doesn’t work. However the spectacle has created some level of class consciousness. The organizing we are seeing seems to be around memes. Hopefully this momentum doesn’t end. People are still talking about Harambe and how Epstein didn’t kill himself. Dropping it is unlikely. Sorry it makes you uncomfortable.
