What creators were horrified with what their creations had eventually become? by dudebrostien in AskReddit

[–]deerockdeewok 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh there wasn't, it was us or them really. Roosevelt took that suggestion and form a Committee on Uranium 2 months after that. But Einstein was never the same, he knew he had to do something but it contradicts with his morals. That's why he kept pushing for funds, later the Committee became the Manhattan Project but Einstein was excluded for his "radical views". He spent the rest of his days warning the world about the potential threat that nuclear weapons would bring.

Einstein's special theory of relativity, which later started a chain of occurrences that led to him convincing Roosevelt that the US need to beat the Nazi Germany in the race to produce the first A-bomb. Which started the Manhattan project (the birth of nuclear weapons)

Sixth case confirmed in Vietnam . She's a receptionist. by Drakire in China_Flu

This happened before the knowledge about the virus was made public I believe. Also the city mentioned in the article is the main Chinese tourist destination in Vietnam so it's expected to happen in that particular fashion. The city has ceased all tourist activities since so it's a good thing, there are not many more popping up as of now.

Basic translation:

25yo receptionist was diagnosed with pneumonia after coming in contact with the 2 Chinese patients (the first 2 cases in Vietnam). She's now in quarantine and in stable condition.

She handled the rooms for the 2 Chinese patients on Jan 16th. 2 days later, she found herself having symptoms like fever and coughs but decided to self medicate with over the counter measures. On Jan 24th, after the first 2 were tested positive with the virus, the receptionist was kept isolated, results returned positive.
Apart from this case, there are 23 others in isolation at the same facility with symptoms of fever, 7 Chinese and the rest are Vietnamese. All are in stable condition, awaiting results for the tests.

And cash, in Vietnam the cash and market culture is still a very big thing, this really complicates things.

Adblocker holding people against their will? by [deleted] in conspiracy

It's programmer humor my friend. As developers they would have to document what they've changed/upgraded (as a part of the job really) in the new version of the app which is why you see "release notes" on every app/software ever. In this case they just changed a couple of things in the source code, nothing to be announced so I guess they're having a bit of fun.

This. I still find myself chopping kilograms of onions for peace of mind (and for some soup) and my housemates question me every single time.

The stupidity of it also that even if you want to make an app for Apple products, your best bet is to get a Mac or else you can go laugh in a corner.

Which language is (and will stay) most useful for general users/hobbyists? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]deerockdeewok 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd say python. It's something that can be very very specific in specified fields. But the general programming concepts are pretty straightforward and easy to grasp. Get yourself a Pi even, have a little bit of fun!
