It acts however it’s trained to act. Just think, the ceos wouldn’t have to ‘work’ anymore.

He either he hates Ukraine or the Ukrainian people. “The Ukraine” is how Russia refers to the region

Having been on a small town board, the truth is roads are funded at the state level (may vary by state) with funds distributed to the county governments, who maintain the county highways. The towns and cities get some amount from the county and more from the state to be used for anything highway related.

If this were not the case, and all else being equal many rural towns would go under. Private transportation is currently being subsidized at rates sometimes much higher than the property tax income the towns bring in. It’s unsustainable and barely working like everything else, it’s like long term vision is irrelevant and only short term gains are even considered…

Non-normality confirmed, again…

They’ll kill them all regardless, what shame.

China won Big-time

Not yet anyway, hold America’s beer…

We don’t have room to make these jokes, anymore.

True enough

MAGA is the enemy.

IIRC…Creators say it doesn’t matter, either pronunciation is fine.

In a republic the executive is answerable to the law. We’re neither a democracy or republic.

It’s a sickness, they can’t stop themselves.

I feel like if one tried to follow all of these “rules” at all times nothing would get done, at all.

I learned everything I know about c# by looking it up on Google, copy and paste is king. Just keep working with it until you can make sense out of the code you’re copying. An llm would work similar but might feed you bs, everything you’ll want to know is on stack overflow. You’re unlikely to have an original, unasked question…I never have.

The first difference that I would point out is c# use of static typing, where python is dynamic. This author is using the var keyword to avoid specifying a type for variables. The type is, instead infered by the code that follows the equals sign.

The next main difference is the use of whitespace. Python is very whitespace aware, it uses indentation and line breaks to organize code. C# is whitespace agnostic in most cases and separates blocks of code using curly braces {…}, statements must end with a semicolon;

In C# collections are organized by how the data is accessed and whether elements can be added or removed. Arrays are initialized with a set of items and can’t be made longer, a List can be added to and can be removed. The key point is that all items in a collection are of the same type.

Complex objects (that have properties and methods) can be structs, classes, or records but they all basically do the same thing and interact in the samish way. You have to use the new keyword to make a new instance.

Classes and records can inherit from another where as structs cannot. Properties must have a type, methods must return a type or void. Method parameters must be typed, when calling a method the provided parameters must be of the proper type.

An interface describes requirements an implementing class, record or stuct must meet (i.e. properties and methods). You can’t make a new interface, it’s more of a qualification.

I hope this helps some

I find articles on the onion to be funny in some way. This was just naked approval of the status quo.

I think “describing it as if it were normal” only helps the people who support this arrangement because it gets normalized. That’s where the accusation of conservatism came from, that and the way they tried to shut me down with insults.

Edit: given that there are likely to be a lot of people that agree with this argument unironically, doesn’t it seem irresponsible to play some game where you pretend like you support it? Without ever coming out against it at the end?

Really, it’s just naked approval, with any disapproval left as an exercise to be performed by the reader.

Ii is the real state of the world, but I don’t see any disapproval in the text.

Who would build any sort of factory if they did not know that many people would be available to take the jobs at low-pay rates

Much of the hunger lirerarure talks about how it is important to assure that people are well fed so that they can be more productive. That is nonsense

No one works harder than hungry people.

[…]well-nourished people are far less willing to do that work

For those of us at rhe high end of the social ladder, ending hunger globally would be a disaster.

I guess the irony is lost on me. Nothing here indicates that it’s wrong or should change. Also, you’re a huge asshole.

Edit: in fact I know people (conservatives) who are totally fine with this arrangement. They are huge assholes too, huh isn’t that weird.
