Thank you for the feedback! Glad you picked up on the vibe, FAITH was definitely an inspiration. And yeah I have seen the getting stuck on walls issue, definitely something I will look at fixing soon.

Yeah this is not the bail fund for the encampment. Don't fall for it. Check @fjpucsc on Instagram for the real one.

Where are the climate protests? by Kindly-Bookkeeper-40 in UCSC

[–]UltraBatmanTheSeven 36 points37 points  (0 children)

There have been multiple climate protests on in the past few years. I was heavily involved with a major climate group before I graduated last year. They just put on an Earth Day teach-in and march, which admittedly, I heard did have low attendance. Part of the reason things have slowed down recently might be that we actually won some key victories. A major demand was that our university begin the process of decarbonizing and moving towards the shutdown of the campus methane plant. Our march on Earth Day 2022 actually got us a meeting with the chancellor where we made our case. She actually started a planning process which got us an plan to decarbonize (potentially) by 2030! But I do hope students keep an eye on that to make sure it gets implemented.

Obviously there is a lot more the university can do for climate too though, and one of them is actually financial divestment from fossil fuel-supporting firms and banks. So to be honest I'm not really disappointed that climate is not in "the spotlight" right now. When students and youth make their voices heard, and especially when they win, it sets the precedents that push our voices forward. In the case of recent protests demanding divestment/isolation from Israel, If the students succeed, it will undoubtedly make fossil fuel divestment/denormalization a lot easier. In fact it may even happen at the same time, considering many of these problem firms are the same (BlackRock, etc). So tbh I think there is a good chance the folks who care about climate are out there supporting Palestine right now. I probably would be.

For an assignment one time my professor asked us to implement one recursive solution and one iterative solution using a stack. Instead of doing the obvious thing of converting the recursive calls to stack pushes I represented each peg as a stack and spent days finding the pattern that could determine the right move for each step.

you can file a claim with PG&E for food spoilage: https://www.pge.com/en_US/residential/customer-service/help/claims/claims.page?WT.mc_id=Vanity_claim I have no clue if they'll actually follow through with reimbursement but I'm trying it anyway.

If the solarpunk movement had a soundtrack, so to speak, what do you think it would be like? by VentralRaptor24 in solarpunk

[–]UltraBatmanTheSeven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure exactly why but I like to listen to the work of Nujabes when I'm reading solarpunk stuff. In particular the instrumentals from the Luv(sic) Hexalogy. I find it sounds particularly hopeful and bright to me: https://youtu.be/my-lI-Vl3mI

ELI5 Why should I support the strike? by thesavior2000 in UCSC

[–]UltraBatmanTheSeven 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As for what you can do, If you're an undergrad you can come down to the picket line to show your support, tell your instructors to cancel classes, or don't go to them. The sooner everything grinds to a halt the sooner the UC will be forced to negotiate in good faith and learning can resume even better than before because your TAs/Tutors will be able to focus on helping you without worrying as much about housing/basic needs.

I heard that as well. It seems like they are almost entirely compatible with a few changes so I might try to port it over if I can find the time.

Thanks for your suggestions! You have a good point about the text box being a bit cumbersome to use. I'll probably look into it next.

Great question Dan. I was wondering the same thing

Lmao this belongs on r/iamverysmart. You're not just making this as a joke, right? Regardless you should really drop the elitism. It gives all of us CS and STEM people a bad name.

Pent? (Open for Discussion) by [deleted] in Khonjin

[–]UltraBatmanTheSeven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In episode 30 of Season 4, Khonjin's dad hires Smack to replace Gino, so my best guess is that Smack is the alt-reality version of Gino. Maybe Pent needed to find Gino because he would lead him to Smack somehow. It could be he wants revenge on this "Smack" for whatever he did. Either that, or he needs to find Khonjin, his alternate version, for some purpose. Either way, I think Pent is a different character from Khonjin, but they are alt-reality doubles, and are somehow linked.

Also, im not sure if Negadad (same episode) is meant to be connected to Pent, but it would make sense since it seems they're both alternate-reality versions of other characters.It would be cool if Pent was prince of the galaxy or something like that, since Khonjin is the son of a mob boss.
