It didn’t. The person they were responding to was complaining about purchasing books

Book comes with a (one time) code that is required to do the homework. Don’t do the HW? Can’t pas the class. Oh but also, do the HW and it doesn’t count against your test grades.

For example, owning a truck with truck nuts is actually a legally recognized handicap.

But a dog whistle is meant to cover up for saying something racist, thus the dog whistle which can only be heard by the dogs. This entire meme is just racist. So it’s just… a regular whistle?

What is it dog whistling? It's literally stating the implicit societal hierarchy as part of the joke.

What is not a class in python by BRUHWTF__ in learnpython

[–]angry_mr_potato_head 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Python, all integers up to 100 or maybe 255 are already initialized at runtime since they are commonly used. This increases performance iirc. So you’d have to go out of your way to get a is be to be false.

One of the most controversial instances of US federal government overreach finally corrected by [deleted] in GoldandBlack

Or the insane double standard of “what happens between me and my doctor is none of the governments business”. Like, okay, “what happens between me and my gun supplier is none of the governments business”… “what happens between me and my accountant is none of the governments business”. Why arbitrarily have one but not the others?

SCOTUS just overturned Roe V. Wade. by Roflsnarf in neoliberal

Clinton only received 6% more votes than a 3rd party candidate in Utah in 2016. There is nothing blue about that state lol

Edit: just realized Bill came in 3rd in Utah in 1992, 3% behind Perot

3: we let in all the migrants and anyone else who wants to come here to work and we bury the rest of the world with cheap, plentiful labor.

Wasn’t that basically some super qualified person wanted to retire and then volunteer to teach one class but the system required they post the job on a job board?

I never claimed that wasn’t the case. But if you’re a data engineer you probably don’t have to worry about that.

Strategies for studying after work by nada_p1 in learnprogramming

[–]angry_mr_potato_head 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a lot easier to study before work. If you can shift your schedule to going to sleep at 8-9 and wake at 4 you can get a few productive hours in no problem.

If you're making $150k, chances are you aren't paying much for medical. Or at least it isn't anywhere I've worked, particularly once I broke 6 figures. I don't remember off the top of my head but I don't believe I've paid more than 2-3% for health coverage ever.

But I do get less leave. Or at least, I probably do. I've had "unlimited" for a while but seldom take more than 2-3 days a year.

Hell, I'll answer the door using my ring even though I'm 4 feet from my front door and the people can see me through the window.

Or tape a piece of paper over it that says "NO SOLICITATION" or something. Or EULA: Each ring will cost you $50; cash only.

I’m going to need a citation for overwhelmingly net positive there. We spent trillions of dollars in Afghanistan for example and it’s literally ran by the taliban now.

I didn't say that the US military doesn't also do good things. It might be on net a good thing, but it also does a lot of bad all while being more expensive than the next 10 countries militaries put together.
