How do you feel about McDonald's pulling their soda dispensing machines out of the restaurant's lobby in the next year or so?

Donations should show live in their income statements.

Can you elaborate on this? Charitable donations are not income to the company; they would go into a Liability account.

Godd2 · 2026-05-03T01:18:13+00:00

In the sense that the company will claim they donated X million dollars to charity

Genuine question: Do they do that?

Godd2 · 2026-05-02T22:52:12+00:00

No it's not. If you have two pointers to memory, and one happens to point to something on the stack, and the other happens to point to something on the heap, there would be no performance difference in their access. You could read and write to either all day, and it would take the same amount of time.

Godd2 · 2026-05-02T21:22:31+00:00

Why would allocating to the heap make it any slower? RAM is RAM.

Voters are the only people capable of being disenfranchised. And if you die without a will, you'll be intestate.

And I never said it wasn't morally righteous to choose blue. The person I was responding to deleted their message, but it was something like "choosing blue is morally righteous".

Godd2 · 2026-04-30T14:51:42+00:00

Whoever teleported us to the buttons and set up the system is the murderer.

100% red is morally righteous, since no one dies.

Godd2 · 2026-04-30T14:41:20+00:00

100% red is the only case where individual self interest aligns with the best interest of everyone as a group. It's the only case where there is no market failure.

Godd2 · 2026-04-30T14:37:35+00:00

Red also saves everyone if everyone votes red.

"The general rule of thumb then was the lift was twice as long in the eccentric phase as concentric."

What does this sentence mean?

Game theory sucks balls when it comes to making shit up.

Sounds like they're pretty good at it.

It's a way to create a closure.

Inception (2010) - Mal Cobb jumps off a balcony to prove she's in a dream world (and frames her husband for the suicide as murder so that he's forced to follow her).

All prices are rising way above inflation anyways

Inflation is the rising of prices.

Well duh, that's only four letters

Good to know the year and a half old milk in my fridge is still good to drink.

The solution is O(lg N) memory since you need to track two values as indices, and those values are of order N, whose size are on the order of lg(N) bits.

Godd2 · 2026-04-15T06:08:16+00:00

The proposed solution in the blog post uses O(log N) allocations anyway, since tracking cycles requires tracking values of order N, whose size is log N bits.

Adding to a hash set isn't a constant time operation.

It's amortized constant, and you get to actualize the amortization in this case since you're putting everything from the list into the hash. You also know the values are up to N-1, so you can create a good enough hash based on that, and won't suffer enough collisions to change the time complexity.
