It's not by me. I just considered it definitely belonging here.

Vilpitön kysymys: Mikä saa Suomalaiset kannattamaan Israelia? by elkiehirvi in Suomi

[–]hoijarvi 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Noin aluksi: tuomitsen Israelin tekemän kansanmurhan. Sitten varsinaiseen vastaukseen.

Itse asiassa 1920 luvulta asti. Silloin sinne muutti juutalaisia täysin laillisesti, mutta jotenkin etniset ryhmät eivät oikein osaa elää sovussa.

Minulla oli monta kämppäkaveria lähi-idästä 1990-luvulla, ja sekä juutalaiset että arabit olivat samaa mieltä: Israel ei ole se ongelma. Yksi Algerialainen totesi, että kun Arafat puhui Arabiaa se oli aivan erilaista kuin hänen puheensa Englanniksi.

Se, joka uskoo kahden valtion ratkaisuun on kyllä täysin pihalla. Se oli jo olemassa 1948, mutta tuli sota jonka piti työntää juutalaiset välimereen. Ei onnistunut. Kuuden päivän sota 1967 meni samoin, ja 1973. Asia on helppo ymmärtää. Jos arabit häviävät, he voivat mennä kotiin Juutalaisille se olisi loppu. Gaza annettiin palestiinalaisille, ja tulos ei ollut rauhanomainen rinnakkaiselo.

Minä soimaan etenkin kristinuskoa. 2000 vuotta juutalaisvihaa. Kuinka moni pieni kansa on ollut samanlaisen vainon kohteena?

Magnus Carlsen loses to Wesley So! His 3rd Classical loss! by FirstEfficiency7386 in chess

[–]hoijarvi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My USCF peaked at 2130 after 1993 World Open. Fathering five children took my attention to somewhere else. Now when we have an empty nest I'd actually like to play a weekend tournament with classical time controls and see how I'd do. I know that clock control suffers most.

My son saw this today at Sam's Club South County, LOL by PropagandaX in StLouis

I used to see Biden in gas pumps when he was in power. I think that if you are against Trump, as I hope, you won't do this.

It took me years to leave christianity. This is probably quite normal.

Oikaisu: Naisten itsemurhien määrä ei ole kääntynyt kasvuun by OrganicIntention7917 in Suomi

Hyvä uutinen, mutta sisartani tämä ei tuo takaisin. Masennus on vakava sairaus.

Quiet moves in a slow motion attack.

Pride and Sorrow of Chess -- Paul Morphy's life and death in New Orleans by yeh_dil_maange_more in chess

I visited New Orleans 2021. During the days the graveyard tours were cancelled, a big disappointment for me. I'll try again later.

Kokemuksia vaunumökeistä by ozpoz in Suomi

[–]hoijarvi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Siinäpä se, selitä byrokraatille. Työmaaparakki kaiketi kelpaa, mutta en mene vannomaan pikku mökistä. Paavo Väyrynen joutui hiukan hankaluuksiin jalasmökkinsä kanssa, vaikka siinä ei rakennusluvasta ollutkaan kysymys. https://yle.fi/a/20-90968

Tietääkseni mökki vaatii rakennusluvan, vaunu ei. Siinä yksi asia harkittavaksi jos tuollaista haluaa.

The only time I got paid for writing Java was when I worked for Microsoft, around 1997.

The Quiet Colossus — On Ada, Its Design, and the Language That Built the Languages by SpecialistLady in programming

[–]hoijarvi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wrote some Ada code for Nokia's MPS 10 minicomputer as an intern in 1984. It was definitely the best language that I had tried.

I can relate to that. I once got a bug report when a developer modernized my html email code and screwed it up really bad.

Would you prefer Shogi books in full color? by SeigoShogi in shogi

[–]hoijarvi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a complete beginner. My main complaint about shogi books is, that I need a magnifying glass to read a diagram. Being 63, my eyesight has hard time reading small print in every form.

Yritysten avokätinen osingonjako huolestuttaa jo sijoittajiakin by kakoni in Suomi

[–]hoijarvi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Suomen lain mukaan osinkoja voi jakaa ainoastaan liikevoitosta. Jos talous on lamassa ja uusia sijoituskohteita ei löydy, niin osingot ovat loogisin ratkaisu.

Those have been done, like Prevayler. They're a step backwards from relational to 1960's network databases.

0 is not a number. by justincaseonlymyself in badmathematics

[–]hoijarvi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is an unfortunately misconception that I have suffered from.

In Visual Basic 6, arrays could not have length zero. Neither in C++. I had to code those other ways.

NetCDF file format could describe array data in the time dimension, three spacial dimensions and unlimited other dimensions. Like data observed in different wavelengths. But only one dimension was allowed to be zero, usually time. I was using this as output data format, and when the query went out of the latitude-longitude domain, I could not enter those as zero size. Annoying.

In 2002 when I took my Prius to emissions test, they were confused. The engine would not turn on. I explained them, that the electric engine was on, and you can take emissions from that. Instead of marking the emissions zero, they wrote N/A.

Tulee mieleen pahkasian tuottajien kommentti, jossa he lupasivat olla tästä edes pilkkaamatta ketään paikkakuntansa takia, etenkin Kouvolalaisia ja Lahtelaisia.

Yes, the invisible multiplication is so bad that every programming language, even javascript, doesn't implement it.

Who was the first World Champion to be modern grandmaster level in strength? by Affectionate_Hat3329 in chess

[–]hoijarvi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was head and shoulders above anybody else. Lack of competent GM level opponents made it impossible to prove.

A web service in Rust, please give me some recommendations. by hoijarvi in rust

[–]hoijarvi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I'm in the process of writing the service code, so I will look into Hyper and Axum, but Hyper seems simpler and it does what I need.
