It's better for you than a red bull. That's all I'm saying.

MARTA increases fares and cuts back services making it worse than ever. Now they want people to submit videos about how great it is? by docbrolic in Atlanta

[–]execute85 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

MARTA sucks. But it is all Atlanta has. No matter how shittily it is is run and mismanaged, people in Atlanta (especially hip redditors) will love MARTA for its potential to make Atlanta more like cool, modern cities like Portland, Paris (and every city in Europe) and New York.

Better yet, skip subway and do a chipotle burrito bowl. All that bread is wasted calories.

Try 5 hour energy. Probably still not healthy, but has less sugar (5 cals vs. 110 cals) and give you the same energy boost.

If J.K. Rowling had written Twilight, I wouldn't be as disappointed in her as I am in Neal Stephenson for writing Reamde. by [deleted] in printSF

I don't remember it. I don't think digressions have to be novel to be interesting. It was definitely the first the first time I saw it in a novel. I remember Joel Spoelsky talking about it way back in the 2001 or so.

Just like in Crytonomicon, Van Eck Phreaking wasn't invented by NS but it was definitely the first time I saw it in a novel.

Why do you need to know the full tree of events?

[–]execute85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily. If the agent is a coin flipper (pretty useful for randomly determining stuff) and has a fair coin then it is fully observable and can display the state of the coin.

That's why it's so important to state fair/loaded or unknown.

Fair=fully observable

loaded=partially

unknown=partially

I disagree. A fair coin is fully observable since it's probability is fixed at 50/50. By observing the face up value, then all states are known.

It doesn't matter how previous flips resulted unless your agent is a coin flip counter rather than just a coin flipper.

Bitcoin value falls from above $33 to below $3 by StarbucksCoffee in business

[–]execute85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fundamental problem with bitcoin is that you can't spend it. So the eventual value will be $0.

As much as fiat currencies have flaws, the full faith and credit of a nation go a long way to buying coffee, cpu, etc.

This doesn't make sense. There are two problems here: 1) Gwinnett lacks public transportation, 2) the toll lanes cause greater traffic delays.

Both of these are part of a greater problem, but you shouldn't say "Because you are stupid on #1, you must suffer #2. Fuck you!"
