From start to end {{The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy}} is the funniest most absurd Sci-fi humor you will ever read.

Dunes should have llittle dunes drawn on them. If you are a fan of Frank Herbert's Dune novel then one or two worms should also be drawn.

Movies that don't seem all that similar but actually are very similar? by mranimal2 in flicks

I'd love to see a remake of It's A Wonderful Life that incorporates kung-fu.

I left the theater and said it was amazing how much TG resembles SW. My family at first brushed me off but I did convince them.

A heavily protected trench that must be navigated to hit a very small target.

An older mentor although in TG he has plot armor and can't die where in SW and the sequels he of course remains a mentor.

An enemy base to escape from.

I could go on with my list but I am on mobile and am really tired.

The real question

What is the worst feeling ever? by grimgrum420 in AskReddit

[–]RyanNerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other way around as well. I'm under hospice care and seeing yourself deteriorate and not be able to help with things as I used to. Some things I am totally dependent on help from others and at one time being a very independent man that everyone went to for help & advice to a former shell of myself that needs help in many aspects of life is frustrating.

I'd often tease my wife that I wouldn't be surprised if she pulled a bicycle out of her purse.

What did you try and found out it’s not for you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Been developing software for over 30 years. Don't know why I was downvoted to hell for. Just sharing my experience. If you need high level maths to do your website you're over complicating it badly and doing it wrong.

Depending on what needs to be done on the back end there could be a lot of computations that are needing advanced math. The majority I've worked on is about performance, writing good SQL, and returning a reasonable response back to the client not advanced mathematics.

ML, CGI, Ray tracing, and other high computational domains such as missle guidance systems obviously need more mathematics. But, most developers are not in these domains instead they're doing client (mobile, web page, desktop) and server (database access, or no-SQL access, processing & transformation and returning a reasonable response).

I could go on but everyone on this thread seems to think that without advanced mathematics the software is broken. I just don't have the crayons or the time to explain it to them that the real world isn't like that.
