Sure, but it works, and that’s what we build upon. And then people build upon that. If we really wanted, we could say simple loop is building upon the work that humans did when we simply invented/discovered counting.

we were specifically taught in school to not write something that’s already been written, we all build upon each other’s work, literally going back thousands of years when you consider the importance of the math that underpins all of it.

That’s mainly what all of the researchers who turned the papers into a functioning jupyter or colab notebook knew how to do, and at the time python was the main language used in notebooks (I think it still is), so if you wanted to share it widely, you had to do it in python because you knew the people who were going to use it and improve also used notebooks heavily. Also, they want it to be as reproduce-able as possible for the peer review process, so they want to use the widely known language, which I believe python was like #1 or #2 in the world at that time (2017/2018).

Then as an added bonus, us programmers who somehow found our way into those slack/discord channels knew enough python to help them out when they needed it here and there. This was essentially before open ai or anything like that existed, particularly in its current iteration.

From there, web languages were added as a wrapper, so it’s easier to use for everyone than a notebook, where you had to click through each cell and maybe debug something now and then to get it to work right.

Thanks man, this is a great answer, I guess Ill have to give it a go. I love to use hard to find art software to and mosh it all together, so that’s always been the big hold up with linux for me, plus win11 ltsc iot is pretty awesome, it didn’t even come with the snipping tool, much less ai, but I know eventually I need to switch. I did recently set up an openmediavault server, which was at times frustrating (due to what turned out to be a bad external hdd case…), but also rewarding. It’s been running really well ever since.

manjaro kde was awesome last time I tried it, so Ill prolly give that a go again.

Thanks again!

yeh, but will my sea worthy version photoshop run on it? 🏴‍☠️

Hey at least they are getting a heads up, valve nerfed bunny hopping with the cs 1.6 patch out of the fucking blue, and it really decimated the tfc communities skills, as many of the best left the game.

The new Beverly Hills Cop: AxelF It’s ok, better than I thought it would be but it’s nothing to write home about. It basically copies it’s old format though.

Godzilla x Kong: Terrible. Couldn’t even finish it and I can be a sucker for this kind of stuff.

Just explain to the students that it’s like a calculator except the answers might be wrong.

You’re right of course, but we are talking about two different things.

Had the bolsheviks ensconced themselves within the flames of Jesus H Christ they would still be here today. It was right in front of them, but alas they were too short sighted to understand the power of emotion.

Absolutely “governments” have always been in control. How do you think they get the gold out of the ground? An elite hires people to do that work. The elites are the government in these ancient times, and they always controlled the mines. That is literally the very first thing they go for, and we have plenty of evidence for this. The precise locations of these mines was not unknown to these peoples by any stretch of the imagination.

Further, these gold mines were not simple operations, they required skill and aptitude to extract and form the metal into it’s required physical form, indeed just the process of what the physical form should be is itself a complicated political process. It’s also a myth that this is something recent, we simply don’t have the archaeological or written evidence to know what they did, but that doesn’t mean that local elites weren’t controlling the monetary supply through various rhetorical, political and/or physically coercive means just as their distant Sumerian progeny would end up doing. We have evidence of direct economic control going back almost to the very beginning of civilization.

Yep, these people are fucking crazy. At least it’s consistent though, I guess.

I certainly wouldn’t ask an internet forum. Any answer other than advising you to seek the help of a professional is the wrong one.

plus as a park ranger you gotta be a fucking cop. no thanks, never. ACAB.

yes but ultimately perception is reality.

photoshop.

shit, gimp is like photoshop from 2003.

Missouri?!?

But there in lies the problem, money is solely the domain of government, and anyone who thinks it isn’t is extremely ignorant and naive of how money actually works. The crypto bros have been lying to you, and while the cypher punks meant well, they are woefully ignorant about things like history and jurisprudence.

There is a path forward with crypto currency, but it isn’t through private endeavor. Otherwise we would be trading in wampum shells.

Well on the bright side, you helped an animal and that is awesome! Yall brazillians in general are pretty awesome peoples.
