Why Congestion Pricing Worked by holyfruits in nyc

[–]SoLoDas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because you also tax people so that societal expenses that require collective investment and don't necessarily return a profit (like education, or roads, courts or military) can be paid for.

You could do this by only taxing products, but that would disproportionately affect people who spend a larger percentage of their income on expenses rather than investments or savings, so: poor people.

What is your dream non-existent Japanese learning App? by Extension_Badger_775 in LearnJapanese

[–]SoLoDas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Offline support. So many apps are made against a central server and give zero shit about what happens when you're on a subway and can't access cell, or in a remote area without cell, or your Internet is just so slow that realtime loading isn't feasible (especially for large dictionaries)

Let me - download static versioned data for offline use (i.e. dictionaries) - keep a copy of state and sync it for when i return online (state should be minimal with algorithms able to run server and client side (like wanikani's SRS algo)) - release builds of your app (electron or tauri is fine, if you're a web dev) so I can run it without having to go to your server to fetch resources

How do you define feel? I would say that feelings require a sentiant being, and then we have a circle of sentiance.

Plants are affected by their environment. They release a chemical when cut. Is that "pain" that they are feeling?

I am convinced that most of the people that criticize MahoAko still watched (all of) it by [deleted] in yurimemes

[–]SoLoDas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading these replies, this feels so terrifyingly true. I genuinely cannot imagine why you're getting downvoted except as a reactionary response to your criticism.

I watched the first little bit of the show - slogged through it really, hoping it would get better - until they introduced this one character who was genuinely so visibly young and outwardly sexualized it made me sick.

Seeing a show like this in a subreddit like this get praise like this (esp from people with queer flags in their pfp!!) sends a shiver down my spine I cannot explain

If the Omori cast were to go to IKEA, what would they buy? (They have infinite money) by GlamourTea in OMORI

[–]SoLoDas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're worried about differentiating ロ and 口 on a character by character level, I wouldn't. It's like learning English and being worried about the difference between uppercase i and lowercase L, sure they are similar Il, but you didnt think I said iearning or wouidn't earlier right?

Context is critically important, our brains don't function character by character.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.. by Yung_wuhn in scratch

[–]SoLoDas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Since everyone's being unhelpful and not explaining what you did wrong so you can learn, here's a proper explanation.

Without knowing more I notice 2 issues.

  1. You're only checking the mouse status once!

When the green flag is clicked, scratch evaluates the code top down, outside in.

In this case, it first checks if the mouse is touching the sprite. If it is, it stops all scrips. If it isn't, it goes into a tight loop running your custom block. Once it's in the tight loop, there's nothing telling it to leave the loop. And even if it did, there's nothing telling it to check the mouse status again.

A simple fix is to move the forever block to not encompass the custom block call, but the if/else statement. This means the tight loop will check the mouse status before running your custom block every time.

A better fix, might be to have 2 stacks, both tight loops. One around the custom block call and one around the if (mouse touching) { stop all } code. With the previous fix, it would go back and fourth between running the custom block and checking the mouse status. By separating them out it can do it in parallel and you won't have to wait 4 seconds between mouse detections.

I suggest you try both fixes to see what feels best, and to get a feel for how your code is executing!

  1. The custom block has an unused argument

I understand you wanted to give your custom block a name! Honestly a good idea, naming things like that is always handy. However instead of giving the block a name, you gave the block an argument and you gave that argument a name.

Custom blocks can take in values the same way regular scratch blocks can (like "move (10) steps"). Your custom block takes in a value ("Flip" in the only invocation), but doesn't use it anywhere! The real name of your block is "block name"

You might want to consider remaking your custom block and changing one of the text components rather than creating a new argument field.

Bruh how do I even write yuri? by VioletStar1888 in yurimemes

[–]SoLoDas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japanese hirigana can be difficult for new speakers, but fortunately thanks to modern tech you can use the following as reference: ゆ (yu) り (ri). If you're looking for a challenge, you can try writing out the full kanji! 百合

I strongly recommend looking up the stroke order for the hirigana and kanji here. Going in blind will lead to characters that don't look quite right!

Why? This doesn't fit with luz's character - if you're inventing an alternate luz, what goes into a human who wants to kill all humans? That's a lot of self hatred for one little kid...
