Whaaah, the dev took away my ability to exploit a bug and balanced a boss, worse game ever, -100/10

• those children

The art has more of a SMBC vibe than peanuts imo

Relevant paragraph:

PQC readiness “is mostly actuarial/risk management—even if the chance of building a CRQC by, say, 2030 is very low (say 5 percent), the downside risk is huge,” he explained. “Combine that with very long transition engineering times, and you should have started already.”

Also, relevant paragraph from the wiki page for integer factorization records:

The largest number reliably factored by Shor’s algorithm, rather than some other quantum method, is 21 which was factored in 2012.[26][27] The number 15 had previously been factored by several labs and subsequent attempts to factorise 35 failed.[27

And a relevant excerpt from this study looking at “factored” primes above 21

Large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computers capable of implementing Shor’s algorithm are not yet available, preventing relevant benchmarking experiments. Recently, several authors have attempted quantum factorizations via reductions to SAT or similar NP-hard problems. While this approach may shed light on algorithmic approaches for quantum solutions to NP-hard problems, in this paper we study and question its practicality. We find no evidence that this is a viable path toward factoring large numbers, even for scalable fault-tolerant quantum computers, as well as for various quantum annealing or other special purpose quantum hardware.

I’ll be concerned when we start seeing primes being factored when they’re not using compiled Shor algorithm primes. So far, most of the big “factorization records” cheat and use primes with only the LSBs differing, and aren’t remotely close to anything used in a real RSA prime. There was a good discussion of it on Security Now episode 1034 for those who are interested.

It could also just be that your parents are polyamorous and don’t know how to have that conversation with you. I have friends who have lots of short and long term partners that aren’t in the business world at all, they’re just poly. And honestly, poly is nice cuz you can get your needs met even if your primary partner isn’t into that.

purity test" implies attention to detail which is the opposite of what i’m arguing. i’m advocating for a “stink test.”

regardless of if the comics were fine, later in life he was a jackass so who cares?

I see a big difference between an artist that posts derogatory art and artists who are shitheads in real life. There’s an argument to be made about separating the art from the artist when the overall corpus of the art is not offensive that doesn’t exist for offensive art.

I’m all for banning offensive art, but you’re advocating for purity tests for the artists, which is too far imo

posting it today platforms who he is today.

A corpse? /j

But on topic, I don’t recall the dilbert comics being offensive, even if adams was a fucking loon. Willing to be proved wrong since I stopped caring when PHB became the main focus of the strip.

There’s nothing to be gained by forcing people to act in ways that they do not wish to act, or to think in ways that they do not wish to think.

In context of the conversation, you’re saying there’s nothing to be gained by banning comics from racist artists.

The way you’re using that quote is basically saying, “Agree with me, and think the way I tell you to think, or you’re a bad person”.

You sure? Because in response to your statement saying you don’t have an opinion (ie, you’re doing nothing), it means that you’re allowing bad to happen due to apathy (that’s assuming you see yourself as a good person, if you’re not, disregard).

That is evil, and people of good conscience should not agree with you.

One of these days I’m going to create /c/selfawarewolves…

Twist yourself up like a pretzel all you want, but at least listen to what you’re saying and think about it for more than 5 seconds. Because you’re supporting people who spread bigotry by arguing against banning them, and trying to take the moral high ground.

Apathy is an oppressor’s greatest weapon.

You may not think you’re supporting them, but silence is complicity. And if you’re complicit with it, you tacitly support it, otherwise you’d have an opinion on it.

Those that get it done for medical reasons being called mutilation would be offensive.

Right, because they weren’t mutilated, they had to have a procedure done for a medical reason.

Any non-medically necessary surgery to a child’s genitals is mutilation. They have no way to consent, and anything short of a medical necessity is the parent making massive changes to their child’s life based on their preferences. To make the point crystal clear:

• If I have a kid and the arm ends up gangrenous, we would remove it as it would be medically necessary for the child’s well-being
• If I have a kid and think it’s cool to have one arm, I would be trying to mutilate my child by removing it for no reason

How is performing a medically unnecessary surgery on a child’s genitals not mutilation? Again, you’re changing their body surgically without their consent for no reason aside from ignorant beliefs.

Thankfully I’m not breaking anything, Benjamin

Yes, that would be correct. I’m in a poly throuple, so I also have partners outside of my relationship.

Yeah, it really depends on the person. I’m fairly average, but one of my partners struggles to go down super far just because of a small mouth/gag reflex. My wife on the other hand will bury it to the hilt like she’s trying to hold Excalibur

What would you call 10,000 km? Sometimes you let the original unit for a reason.

And Congress can impeach the president. Just because they can doesn’t mean they will or have any desire to, unfortunately.

Nothing ever happens, everything is made up

Unfortunately America wouldn’t let an American appear at The Hague. Like I’m sure they’d send special forces to recover them before that.

Gdub signed the Hague Invasion Act back in 2002, so we’ve already got laws on the books to do it.

It’s cute you think we wouldn’t send the military to stop it. Gdub signed the Hague Invasion Act back in 2002

Oh, don’t worry. Gdub signed the Hague Invasion Act back in 2002, so we already have a legal justification to invade the Hague if they get uppity and checks notes hold these evil fucks accountable for their crimes.
