My point was that wasting energy raging about this stuff isn’t going to make it go away.

Good thing we never found ways to waste energy on shit like NFTs before generative models showed up.

If even a fraction of the rage AI generated content produces could be harnessed as useful energy, it could power all of humanity’s needs till the end of time.

Oh look more moralizing. The difference between me and you is that I’m not trying to have some moral high ground here. I just want the war to stop. You’re the one who keeps trying to make it out like the war is all Russia’s fault. Meanwhile, NATO scum is the reason the war continues. You should put your money where your mouth is, and go sign up for the foreign legion. Go fight some Russians and defend Ukraine since you believe in it so much. But we both know you just want other people to die for your ideals because all you fascists are cowards deep down.

All Russia has to do to stop a war is getting the fuck out of Ukraine, and the killing stops.

I love how you trolls keep repeating it as if it’s going to happen if you just say it enough times. What part of the fact that Russia won the war are you still struggling to comprehend?

Oh look, the same clown who’s cheering for Ukrainians to keep dying in a senseless war pretends to give a fuck about people in Sudan. You ain’t fooling anybody.

aww it’s so adorable that you think it was for your benefit

I’d be so insulted if I had a shred of respect for you opinions

fighting to the last Ukrainian wasn’t just a slogan

I find a good approach to getting better at programming is to reflect on the projects you’ve done and try to identify patterns that got you into trouble. Then you can try doing things differently next time, and eventually you end up settling on a style that works for you. At the end of the day it’s really just practice. The one key thing I’ve learned to focus on is reducing the operating context I need to have when reading the code. Once the context becomes too big to keep in your head, then trouble starts. So breaking things up aggressively into small components you can reason about in isolation tends to be the best way to write reliable code you can maintain over time.

I’ve noticed that debugging tends to be more important in imperative languages than functional ones. With imperative style, you have a lot of implicit state that you need to know to figure out what actually happened. So, you end up having to go through the steps of building that state up before you can start figuring out what went wrong. On the other hand, the state is passed around explicitly with the functional paradigm, and you can typically figure out the problem by looking at the exact spot where the error occurred.

My typical debugging workflow with Clojure is to just read the stack trace, go to the last function in it, and then see what it’s doing wrong. Very rarely do I find the need to start digging deeper. I think another aspect of it is having an interactive development workflow. When you’re running code as you’re developing it, you see problems pop up as you go and you can fix them before you move to the next step. This way you don’t end up in situations where you wrote a whole bunch of code that you haven’t run, and now you’re not sure if it all works the way you expected.

Maybe should read the wiki links you’re spamming? 😂

What I’m talking about, is that Ukraine is a big wide open steppe through which majority of the invading forces attack. The fact that you can’t understand this really is phenomenal.

And obviously you’re pretending that neither has the technology changed, and obviously 1000km of steppe is the best possible approach, since aircraft, drones, satellites and tactical missiles of nukes are not an option

And obviously you’re ignorant of how actual warfare works given then you think you can win a war without ground invasion. You’re like a poster child for the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Again, the whole reason the war is still going is because NATO stopped negotiations that could’ve ended it two months in. It’s western fascists such as yourself who are ensuring the killing goes on. The blood is on your hands.

Funny how all the bravest Ukrainian patriots live in western countries now.

Sure, anarcho-syndicalism seems very compatible with Marxism for example. The main disagreement tends to be around what is actually to be done about the dictatorship of capital that we all live under in the west.

The whole context for this thread is you claiming that an actually existing socialist state is not really socialist because it doesn’t pass your purity test.

so brave

Behold the power of western intellect.

Nobody is talking about any dark rooms, just go look at what PSL is doing very much in the open. If you look at any successful revolution it has always started by building support networks and organizing communities. It’s kind of wild that you are not aware of this. The difference with communists is that we understand that an organized dictatorship of capital requires organization and education to fight against. So, along with building out support networks we also focus on political education, organization, and long term goals.

China already said they wouldn’t do this, Europe is just not that important of a market for them at this point. This was a really good perspective on it https://youtu.be/RQ3YjZAzqxA

Everything anarchists do in tangible terms helps maintain liberal capitalist rule. That’s the reality of the situation. Hence why anarchists are just LARPing without any tangible plan of action. Anarchists love moaning about being brutally repressed, but refused to take any action against the repression.
