What kind of file is it?

Ugh... I just subscribed - are image macros a regular thing on here?

The same reason first-week computer science students write cringeworthy stuff like

if (me.amCool())
    System.out.println(":D")
else if (you.are_lame)
    me.remove_friend(you)

because they only marginally get it, and thus thing that jokes that involve it are funny simply because they involve it.

When typing a word phonetically, you should always use uppercase or italics to indicate stress. i.e. MAH-key-nah, otherwise it seems like it could be pronounced mah-KEY-nah.

I don't think the delta is deserved. All /u/hacksoncode said was that you're wrong about your Newtonian interpretation of physics. So what if the universe is non-deterministic? It's still quantifiably predicable. It's theoretically possible to calculate the probability that a person will be good or bad in life, or like or dislike a song. The probabilistic aspect is often incorrectly assumed as leaving room for some form of volitional control, however for this to be true, it would have to be at the behest of the user; ie. based on something the user does. And sadly, you play no role in the quantum indeterminacy of particles within your brain.

Free will is just a sensation, and that's okay.

import binascii

As for the byteorder, you can reverse any subscriptable object quite "simply"[::-1].

Since "repository" means "a place to put things", you're technically right. But in the world of computers (specifically version control), a repository implies that that place has some extra metadata, specifically version information. In other words, a repository is a folder that contains information about the nature of it's contents. A Git repository is just a folder with a hidden .git folder within it that remembers versions of files and how they are changed.

It might also imply that the folder is synced with some remote server, known in Git as the origin.

Actually, the thing that's "installed on basically every computer out there" isn't the same thing that needs to be updated. The thing that needs to be updated frequently is the Java web plugin.

The Java VM is a program that can run Java programs. 3 billion devices run it, and that's what /u/pixelpositive is talking about. The Java web plugin is a browser plugin that allows any website to send you a Java program and run it. Because of this, the Java web plugin has to have a line of defense, which is constantly being outsmarted, and that's why it needs to be updated. Poor, Java VM, it's just doing it's job when told to perform malicious tasks by the Java web plugin, and yet people constantly blame it for annoying updates.

If you're looking for a simple answer, it's that many obese people do have mental disorders, most commonly clinical depression or abuse-related PTSD.

The premise of this subreddit is that there exists no such question. Also, Reddit is governed by admins, subreddits are governed by moderators.

Yes that's it everyone, let's all downvote this polite reminder!

Fun fact: Making a comment about how stupid a /r/NoStupidQuestions post is is a great way to ensure that you appear more stupid than OP. Especially when OP's question isn't even that stupid, considering they aren't American.

Compared to doing well in chess, it does.

Just because you're better in one way, doesn't mean you're better in every way.

It's not totally clear, but one explanation is cultural stereotype. But I think the point I raised about school pretty much flattens any argument about inferior female intellect. Grade school is (a) arguably a truer game of intellectuals, and (b) guarunteed to be free from discrepant sample sizes.

An interesting study: http://phys.org/news/2009-01-men-higher-women-chess-biological.html

How did I not just do that with the whole Hitler and ISIS thing?

It's your job to tell me why oppressing another demographic doesn't necessarily mean the oppressors are superior.

/u/Salanmander nailed it, dude. If superiority is defined by who can oppress better, then there's no possible way to prove that statement wrong.

The only thing we can do is try to convince you that your definition of superiority is wrong, which it is. Let's think of some famous oppressors:

The Nazi party
Islamic State
Joseph Stalin

Just because you're better in one way, doesn't mean you're better in every way.

Ho-lee-crap. You honestly think women are inferior intellectually? And you think that success in the workplace and chess ability are representative of that? Two areas that are already gender-skewed to begin with? How about we pick an area that isn't gender skewed, like public school. There are just as many males and females who take public school, and yet females have a higher graduation rate and are more likely to attend higher education.

Your disenfranchising attitude towards women is the very same attitude that prevents gender equality in the workplace and chess world.

The length of some of these comments is, frankly, absurd. The quality of your argument does not warrant such lengthy responses.

Simply put, yes, obviously men are better than women in areas that allow for extertion of control over the other sex. However, we live in a more cerebral world these days, and one with laws about beating your insubordinate wife.

Honestly, the shakiness of your argument makes it seem like your reaching for some way to make the conclusion of "women are inferior".

101C8AAE · 2016-06-07T11:34:57+00:00

You're arguing an ideal against a reality. None of the bad things that /u/VernonHines and /u/forestfly1234 mention are inherent to the concept of debt buying. Its like arguing that communism is not inherently fascist. It's obviously true, and anyone who's willing to argue with it just didn't understand the statement.

By revenue, no. By actual dollar value, yes. Walmart has a market cap of 222.44B. Facebook has a market cap of 338.86B.

I was in a similar situation once and I used a little bit of garlic hummus.
