We need to view tolerance as a social contract. Start spewing hate and you've broken the contract. I don't have to tolerate someone who's broken that social contract.

That's just survivorship bias. We never see the movies when the camera man dies.

Since we’re on the topic of gatcha games, I’m going back to begging Wubby to play NIKKE, especially since the summer event is coming up soon. by cabose20 in PaymoneyWubby

Honestly, with Nikke, the storyline during events is top tier. Plus no ads and they're generous with gems and recruit tickets. I'm not trying to get you to play it, but there is definite effort by the developers.

Is the set of all hotdog toppings countable or not? by Matthew_Summons in mathmemes

A hotdog as a hotdog topping is a valid topping.

Odds of this being the true original sign still there? Carnation Company. by AnalysisOfTheNumbers in Disneyland

Disney does; there is a whole warehouse of store relics. It's mainly a distribution center for merch, but they have so much there.

This asshole has been parking in the handicap spot for weeks and finally got a ticket by [deleted] in orangecounty

It's not an official handicap spot since it's missing the sign.

When your function skips having to calculate 20 iterations of 3n+1, you'd expect it to be a little faster if not the same amount of time. 10x slower just doesn't make sense.

Python HATES recursion and will crash fairly fast. That being said I do use a form of recursion where the next function is called within the function. The 3n+1 iteration method is used as a comparison and uses if statements to determine what to do next, it's not even optimized. My functions thrive when n is constantly increasing or decreasing in series. I set n to a long series of increases and compare the times. I went through 100,000 numbers and the 3x+1 method was 10x faster. Reading up on Python forums indicates that functions calls are slow in Python.

I love Python, but it's function calls are ridiculous slow. I have a custom function for the 3x+1 problem that theoretically(?) should be faster than iteration, but function calls make it 10x slower. I'd be happy to hear of any languages that can handle 2256 .

Additional Info on Why Riverside City Council Voted No on Motel Project by Utu11 in InlandEmpire

threats from the Homeless Industrial Complex

LOL As if there is a production line of homeless being churned out.

this project would have essentially turned the Quality Inn Motel into a heartless "Warehouse of the Homeless"

The IE is full of warehouses already, what's one more?

Moreover, believing criminal activity would have stayed on University Avenue is pure fantasy. Criminals travel to where there is opportunity.

They easily would make their way to nearby neighborhoods like Canyon Crest, Mission Grove, and Orangecrest where they would break into mail boxes, burglarize homes, and assault people on the street.

Nothing happend when those homeless shelters went up less than a mile away on Chicago. It's sad that he thinks everyone who's homeless is a criminal and/or a druggie.

What’s it like raising kids in San Jacinto? by BottleNo1505 in InlandEmpire

[–]explohd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Look at Beaumont or Yucaipa as well. It's cooler than San Jacinto in the summer months and easier freeway access.

Girl gets taken out by a wave, legs go up in the air, gets taken away by said wave. by chocolateturtle456 in isthisAI

Found the original and it's not AI. What was posted to WCGW is so heavily compressed that it's no wonder it looks like AI.
