    Being drunk doesn’t give them special rights. Commiting a crime also automatically implies consent to being filmed. And I doubt anybody around them gave consent to being part of this.
    So unless this was some kind of special function where this type of thing was expected, I would have to say that filming them is fair game.




  • Dude, there are at least 4 different “for” loop syntaxes in Js/Ts alone:

    for (let num = 1; num <= 5; num++) {}.

    for (const num of numbers) {}.

    for (const num in numbers) {}.

    this.numbers].forEach(num => {});

    Also don’t forget ngFor and @for in html, and then the @for in sass/scss.

    That’s 7 different for loops and I haven’t included the non-for loops, or even left Angular.

    Once we include some scripting like I did just this week:

    bash: for i in {1…5}: do … done

    dos: for /L %%i in (1,1,5) do ()

    Then you can just stfu if I feel the need to remind myself of the exact syntax for one of the 3 or 4 different for loop options in c#.


  • As a senior programmer I can’t write a for loop without the internet.
    I can’t remember the last time I saw a job listing that didn’t expect me to be an expert in at least 5 languages. The best part is that halfway through the interview you learn that they are no longer using half the languages listed, and are “transitioning” towards 2 others that aren’t even listed. You want me to whip out examples written in Fortran, C++, Rust, JS, and some random word you claim is a language in 2 hrs without the internet? Bitch, I don’t even think I could get prewritten “Hello World” examples compiled in 5 different languages in 2 hrs, much less on machine that I have never seen before.

    Your meta analysis link is about mood, and not energy levels.  I know in layman’s terms most people conflate the two, but this is a scientific paper so they’re not the same.  And your other link is an article by someone mixing medical terms with layman’s terms to come up with something incorrect. This is why people are losing trust in science, it’s because of stuff like this where people misinterpret scientific results to try to get as many views as possible.
    You know people can easily do this experiment for themselves right?  In fact, I do it most days at about 2:30.  As my blood sugar drops after lunch and I start to get tired and unfocused I will often have a piece of fruit or small piece of candy.  Do you really need a scientific paper to see there is something askew with what you are saying?  If so, here is your scientific paper:

    https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3820066/.

    The sugar snack condition was associated with significantly higher tension after 1 hr, and a pattern of initially increased energy and reduced tiredness, followed 1 hr later by increased tiredness and reduced energy.

    That’s only sort of correct. It’s only true if you narrowly define hyperactivity as some very specific condition. The studies clearly say that people can experience a “sugar rush” after consuming sugar. The problem is that “sugar rush” is exactly what most people mean when they say hyperactivity. Hyperactivity as in activity that becomes hyper. Hyper as in “above or excessive”, activity as in “doing stuff”. So, “doing excessive stuff”.



  • There are plenty of things that you deal with on a daily basis that are significantly more dangerous than asbestos. And if it had been treated like the hazardous material that it is as soon as we knew it was hazardous, then it would still be used just like all the other hazardous shit we deal with daily. However, as is the usual story, companies not only hid what they knew, but outright lied about its dangers. They called it a miracle material with no downsides. And it is amazingly good at what it does, so it was put in fucking everything, much like AI is today. And so people died for profit. A lot of people.

    I admit at first we all felt like filthy communists, but the rush you get from the sound of the steel wheels sliding on steel rails followed by the sound of a train obliterating a Nissan at over 90 mph is god damn addictive. Occasionally, we’ll catch a lifted pickup that has stalled on the tracks (ironically it’s almost always a Dodge Ram) and man those dumbasses universally want to blame the train, so we all get to “Stand out ground” and riddle that truck with so many bullets that it doubles in weight. Hell, that’s how I met my bff Harlan. He was working off his community service time for his 3rd DUI right there next to the track picking up litter. Next thing you know him, me, and the train engineer are seeing who can spin the rear tire of some upside down Dodge the fastest. Harlan is a damn good shot, but since he was serving community time he wasn’t allowed to carry anything bigger than a 9mm, so he definitely lost that one.

    Me and the wife like to drive down from Tallahassee real early so we can spend the entire day riding the Brightline. They got a special car for those of us that buy the all-day passes. Its like tailgating at the ball game, people bring their coolers and sometimes a small grill. We always have a couple spotters watching for cars on the track ahead of us. If the cars linger on the track too long then we all start the war chant. It started out as BL! BL! BL! SMASH!, but now it has kind of morphed into BALLER! BALLER! BALLER! SMASH!
    It’s like driving in a demolition derby but at like 125 mph and you don’t have to spend any time or money getting a hoopty running.


  • I get that, but my point was that some of the most corrupt, greedy, and murderous people in the history of the US managed to build an entire city out of nothing, in the middle of the desert, well away from anywhere. In a place that no same person would ever want to be for any reason, and they turned it into a destination for people from around the globe.
    It wasn’t greed, corruption, or money laundering that bankrupted his casinos. It was unmitigated, weapons grade, stupidity and incompetence.
