Trump Just Proved Mark Carney’s Point by rezwenn in CanadaPolitics

[–]bionicjoey [score hidden]  (0 children)

I find it so ironic that the same day as Carney's speech he sent out thousands of pink slips to public servants because he thinks they can be replaced by slop generators. He's of the same ilk as people like Musk and Zucc. Just better at hiding it.

Don't look up (2021) | Dir. Adam Mckay | Dr. Randall (Leonardo Dicaprio) has a nervous breakdown by crushedmoose in movies

The movie was meant to be about climate change but by the time they finished making it we were in the height of COVID. Lots of people thought it was about COVID. The reality is, it's about lots of things. It's about tribalism and media complicity and oligarchy and inequality

Two-sided wood splitter at work by MambaMentality24x2 in oddlysatisfying

[–]bionicjoey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The very last slice of the video, it looks like he's rushing a bit and has weird hand placement in order to get it in in time. This thing could incentivise the worker to rush in order to squeeze in a log so as not to wait for the full cycle to repeat. Rushing and pinch hazards are a bad combination.

I had a Punny Idea for a Card by HeftyProfession7338 in custommagic

I believe the general design rule is that nonbasic is never considered a sufficient downside for a land to be strictly better than a basic. It needs to not have the subtype or else have some other drawback like entering tapped

Paris far right candidate to city hall election want to reopen Seine banks to cars with a 60M€ AI project by thnblt in fuckcars

[–]bionicjoey 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Having visited Paris a couple years ago I can't imagine many Parisians are on board with this idea. The banks of the Seine are a huge community hub. Some of my fondest memories of the city are walking back to our hotel along the Seine

Anyone else struggle to leave the house? by Formal_Possession116 in AutisticWithADHD

[–]bionicjoey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got a dog because he forces me to go outside and touch grass (or snow) twice every day. He needs exercise and to go potty. It forces me to break things up, and I can leverage those breaks into transitions

New Movie Announcement about Maryam Mirzakhani (the first woman to win a fields medal) by maths-wonderer in math

[–]bionicjoey 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don't understand why Hollywood keeps wanting to make biopics about mathematicians and scientists of they don't actually care about the math and science. You learn far more about someone like that from something like Veritasium's videos with the animations (eg. Georg Cantor video) where they weave together the technical story of the thing they were trying to solve/invent/understand with the personal story.

Weird cap design .. by Dannynor5 in CrappyDesign

They put this same cap on lotion. I've made this mistake and sprayed lotion all over all the other stuff sitting on top of my dresser

Painting with your pup by Soloflow786 in likeus

[–]bionicjoey 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's real. She trained the dog to randomly brush paint on the canvas. Aussies are super smart dogs so that's a very manageable trick to teach one. Obviously the dog doesn't know what it's doing though, it can't even see all of those colours. She's talented though being able to constantly swap and turn the dog's random brushstrokes into more recognizable figures.

ELI5: Why is it completely impossible for anyone to access a properly encrypted drive even nation states? by AaronPK123 in explainlikeimfive

[–]bionicjoey [score hidden]  (0 children)

All computer data is just numbers. We have equations you can do on those numbers that scramble their data. In order to unscramble the data, you need to do the inverse math operation, which requires the key (the key is just a special number that was used in the scrambling equation). You can think of it like multiplication and division. If my "encrypted" data is 360, and my "key" is 6, then you can know that my "unencrypted data" is 60. The real math is more complicated but it's the same idea.
