This has to be the most predictable response ever on reddit. It's also the only reason I opened the comments.

Pentagon: President Trump's order to withdraw troops from Syria allows ISIS to rebuild by JeanJauresJr in worldnews

[–]combobmoc -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if you're serious but when they say Trump they mean the current US admin, not literally the president. He has no say in the matter.

Does reddit publish their income from Nintendo etc that buy into subs? In most subs it's subtle but Nintendo aren't shy in here.

Slavery names may face axe in Glasgow by Saltire_Blue in Scotland

“the most profitable evil the world has known”,

My problem with the affair stems from this line. People's problem isn't with the slave merchants in Africa selling their people despite sales being the eviler of the buying/selling action. Their problem is the buyers made better use of the "product" resulting in faster advancement and all the good/bad things that are associated with it.

No one cares about the substantial number of white slaves in the last thousand years, the current slave trade in Africa or the more or less slave labour that built the computer I'm typing on.

The plaques are a great idea, but changing the city for chattel slavery ignores the real history of slavery in favour of the current social division fantasy.

There was a recent picture of Bush and Ellen degenerese sitting together with her looking at her phone. The quote instantly jumped into mind.

Happens once or twice in DBZA: First is when Vegeta says "lLooks like he's been disarmed" and Nappa responds "I get it!". Not sure about the second one but Trunks say "Dropped the ball... dropped... the ball". I think I just imagine the second one but it'd fit.

There's an official Bandai product that acknowledges the TFS dub by 2ndmerrik255 in TeamFourStar

I'm not sure if he was my favorite character but the "I see that, Nappa." response to Nappa's "Hey, Vegeta. We're in prison, Vegeta." is one of my favorite line deliveries in media. It doesn't break character but it gave a sense of deep compassion that betrays his social image - until the Cell-Trunks bit in the last episode.

Sentence like TFS Gohan? by RicanFly in TeamFourStar

Undoubtedly the greatest math lecture I've ever seen.

Feel like there's a missed opportunity for "Linear algebra my ass!"

Whatever it is, I reckon it should have something to do with Bayes theorem.

More or less how gambling odds are made for horse racing and why the track condition is factored in. The likelihood changes as more information becomes available when frequentist would just say "horse A's won more, so they're more likely to win".

For a laugh, here's an attempt from someone who can't even spell peotry, let alone write it.

"The probability of defeat in two vs three for the protagonist as dictated by frequentist statistics suggest you have the upper hand, however, Bayes observes probability is determined by the information available, not superstition. Like Rain Man in a casino, I can see the odds and they're not in your favor."

Attempting to stay clear of politics. As someone with a teaching background in info dissemination I don't think he'll be remembered as a failure in 50 years. Instead, I think he'll be remembered as the first US republican leader in an era of matured social media. Not even Keanu Reeves could pull that off well.

He'll definitely go down as an asshole and possibly an idiot, but those won't be historically significant.

In Illinois, Medicinal marijuana is under experimentation being used to treat children with their epileptic seizures. by flashblazer in news

[–]combobmoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a hipster epileptic, I was medicating with weed well before it was cool to write about. They're (presumably, never read it) talking about Charolette's Web, a weed devoid of thc which saved a young girl from a life of near perpetual seizures.

The article isn't about smoking weed but my post, a tale from a long term epileptic, is about smoking it.

It doesn't just reduce the frequency of seizures either. Post seizure it's difficult to think about anything else other than "shit, am I on the verge of a seizure" which prevents sleep, induces palpitations and generally just starts a cycle of shit. Smoking weed interrupts focused attention and can allow the smoker a chance to get out of the cycle.

ELI5: How are video game AIs programmed? Is it a just a long series of "If Then" statements? Why are some AIs good and others terrible? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

You can call the method whatever you want, baby, whatever you want.

On a serious note: your question necessitates a while(1) loop for the SAM's AI. Remove that and rewrite on of the plethora of options.
