It’s like I’m taking to a wall. I completely agree with you that this article is egregious. I’m simply pointing out that your talking points were completely invalid when it comes to this, and bringing up reproducibility and non peer reviewed articles retracts from the point that this article followed those rules and was still published. Blame the reviewers, blame the editor, blame the fame hungry scientists, but bringing up totally unrelated problems with science pubs makes you sound like an idiot, which clearly you are. Go ahead and reply again l. I will not bother reading it.

I did read that article the first time you linked it. Can you go back and read my reply again? I agreed that there is a problem with reproducibility, but that has nothing to do with a paper where no experiments were done.

This article was supposedly reviewed. The reviewers are listed on the article’s web page. This publisher is normally reputable, so I’d tend to believe it, even though the image was obviously not properly scrutinized. The article was also retracted after 3 days. I’m not saying there are no problems with science publications, but the things you are saying are not true for this one case. Also this is a secondary source, so there is no original data here, just an article citing a lot of primary sources to summarize the topic. So, the replication issue doesn’t even apply to this paper. Again all valid issues in general, but not so much here…

Showed this to the wife, and then asked her if she knows about 40k. She said she’s knows about Warhammer and is 40k better quality…

It’s definitely satire. 2 million lines of code is an absurd under-exageration. This post had me looking up the number of possible chess games, because if you coded chess like above you would have to have an if statement for every outcome, and it’s 10^120 different possible games.

I need to know as well. This is the kind of shit my wife and I do daily. Haha

As a dad, I think I finally understand “squad goals”

If wasting the end pieces of sliced bread upsets you, I’ve got some devastating news…

Yeah pendulum clocks are the kind of thing where you get a feel for how fast or slow they are between resetting the weight and you make small adjustments to the pendulum when you reset. So many factors involved in the physics that it’s never going to be a set it and forget it thing. It does require fewer adjustments once you hone in though

Already some good suggestions about making the litterbox way cleaner than your human senses would be able to appreciate. But I was just wondering if your cat is a tortoise shell? Seems to be a common behavior in those quirky girls.

Haha I love the kind hearted vandalism

Nice! You’re on a roll!

Not incomprehensible at all, I feel your pain. I know it sounds scary, but the only way to grow is for a peice of both of you to die. It shouldn’t be scary though, pieces of us die all they time and only then can another better piece be reborn. You two are close, so if you allow your current self to die, his will too and that’s what you are most worried about. But if it happens you will both be reborn. It will hurt, but your tears of pain will become tears of joy once you let your old ego go. You are not your ego, you are you. I’m sorry I can’t give you specific advice on exactly what to do, but you know in your heart what is best for you right now and that is all you should worry about. It will be you alone that makes the journey, and you will leave him in a way no matter how close you stay to him in the physical world. But in that time, you will be able to objectively decide if the new you wants to be with the new him. And then your relationship will be stronger than ever.

Haha took me a second before I focused on the black letters. Then I let out a hearty laugh.

Damn. Bottom left panel really hits home…

It’s not the absolute cheapest, but I recommend trying out commander if you have not already done so. The value of the preconstructed decks is very high as they come with a bunch of useful rares. Some of these decks are as low as $20 on Amazon. Additionally, almost every card ever made is allowed to be played, and nothing ever rotates out like in standard format. It’s a casual format so if you don’t have a lot to spend on perfecting a deck, many people have several tiers of decks for more fair matchups. If it’s just you and your friends, most of the preconstructed commander decks are well matched. Also there are 100 unique cards in each deck, so there is a ton of variety even in one deck and it will take many games before you even see all the cards you have.
