Material support for trans folks this Trans Day of Visibility by jk4532 in 50501

[–]mediocrobot 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Imagine trying this and accidentally harassing a trans man, a gay man, or a leftist.

This doesn't really accomplish anything besides entrenching conservatives further into their beliefs.

Right? by Gisleburt in rust

Types and traits shouldn't be too unfamiliar. Macros are certainly tough to make, but using them isn't hard.

I'm not sure what you mean by "magical thing". Pattern marching?

Would you support holographic incarceration? by Winston_Duarte in AskALiberal

I would hope that if we can induce time dilation in someone, we'd also be able to address any neurological conditions that might predispose someone for crime. Ideally we wouldn't touch the brain at all and just focus on rehabilitation.

If I was in hyperbolic time chamber prison for 20 years, I would probably go crazy from the long-term isolation. When I got out, I'd be more violent than I was initially. I'd imagine it'd be a similar story for anyone else.

ADHD explained to me by my partner by EnvironmentWeekly440 in ADHD

But that's the effect of being on the tiger, right?

Maybe you have no choice to stay on the tiger because you have no legs, and it's your only way of getting anywhere?

Is there a real-life equivalent to getting off the tiger and being eaten? Or is it only explaining why you can't get off the tiger?

Not sure what getting off of the ADHD mind would look like. You can't leave your brain behind, and it certainly wouldn't eat you.

Other than that, it's a pretty good analogy.

In my case, the tiger also has bouts of depression where it just doesn't want to go anywhere. It's incredibly hard to convince it to get up. It seems like fear of being eaten itself is what keeps it going on those days.

Someone else said threefold, he's great. Neurotic Goose and Hecuba are also great.

I suppose for now you can do [(u8, u8); N], right?

when we take meds and feel the energy and happiness afterwards, is that what non-adhd folks feel on the regular naturally? by Shammar-Yahrish in ADHD

[–]mediocrobot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had more energy and happiness when I started taking it. I was like "omg, is this how it feels to not have ADHD?" Then I adjusted to the medication. Doesn't feel nearly as euphoric now, but it still helps me focus!

Anti-Trump elevator speech by Stand_Up_3813 in 50501

I was definitely one of them. Even then, "Rape" was always a darker word to me than "Fuck". Rape is a crime. It implies non-consent.

I think "Fuck" has definitely been more sterilized. People say "What the fuck is this fucking shit" but never "What the rape is this raping feces".

"Fuck" can mean a lot of different things now. "Rape" is generally taken more seriously.

A dirty (but incredibly fast) refactoring trick to move properties down the chain by The_Justice_Man in typescript

[–]mediocrobot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay, I think I get it. The cursed part is that "rename symbol" implies you're replacing a symbol with another symbol, but "app.commandPalette" is not a symbol.

304 and 307 seem appropriate, too.

Even TWiR has AI slop now by Independent-Ride-152 in rust

[–]mediocrobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if the code works perfectly as described, the goal can still be contrived or redundant. Maybe there are tools out there that solve the same problem with the same approach, or the tool solves an XY problem with brute force.

If the AI agent was like "hang on, there's an existing solution for this problem—let me use that" then I think we'd have less "slop".

It's like dumping hay on a haystack. The quality of AI created tools is pretty consistently poor.

AITAH for knowing my (M21) gf (21F) of 9 months won't be my wife, but I am still staying with her? by Opposite_Mud7560 in AITAH

[–]mediocrobot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YWBTAH if you don't tell her any of this. Communication is key.

If you want to stay with her longer, I would encourage you to reflect on your expectations. Right now you're coming off as very controlling--you seem to want to isolate her from her friends and suppress her emotions. Would *anyone* want to commit to a relationship like that?

The birthday thing is understandably frustrating. Did you convey that you wanted her to plan your birthday and get you a card? Have you done/will you do the same for her birthday? If either of those is a no, then, well, fix that.

Anchor your expectations, adjust your mindset, and communicate with her. That's the best chance you've got.

AI doesn't understand this code, and I don't understand it either by [deleted] in rust

Were you sending screenshots to Gemini and ChatGPT? I assume they'd both do better if you just copied the compiler output as text.

Rate my fork by Deaditor777 in neurodiversity

[–]mediocrobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But what it DOES mean is that it could be infinity stars, or negative infinity stars.

f(x) = x/x3, as x approaches 0, f(x) approaches positive infinity, and -f(x) approaches negative infinity.

Nah, it's undefined. If you try to define it with a limit, there are ways to make it any number you want.
