    Technically, this isn’t even a case of religion going crazy. The flat Earth conspiracy actually started out in the German Nazi party and were eventually pushed out because even the Nazis thought they were too crazy.

    Notice how many of them mention a vague “they” as the ones maintaining the conspiracy. That’s them referring to Jewish people. While this is notmal for most conspiracy theories, few directly originated from the Nazis.

    If you want more detail, there’s a couple episodes of Behind the Bastards explaining it. I recommend giving them a listen








  • I honestly don’t get all the love for the show. It was the stereotypical sitcom that was super generic and not all that funny. I was always completely bored by it.

    And the salamander didn’t say anything bad about it. It said there’s better shows. Are you going to try and claim that Friends is better than Breaking Bad or the first 8 seasons of Game of Thrones?













  • Well you’re not wrong, but man, you’re hating the screwdriver because you work in a bolt factory.

    Like I said, the problem with OOP advocates is that most of them are calling for bolts to be destroyed in this analogy. If they weren’t so fanatical about it we wouldn’t be havining this conversation.

    what’s that code that has thousands of variables that cannot be organised?

    It’s not a random example. I can’t go into detail, but it’s the code I work on on a daily basis. It’s a physics model for industrial equipment. Highly customizable for customers, and I need to know exactly where various sub assemblies are located and be able to move them in various configurations.

    And scripts doesn’t “fix” the problem. It’s more that using functions is infeasible due to the difficulty in cramming everything into input arrays, so scripts end up being orders of magnitude more efficient to work with. The scripts are all called from a function, which does allow us to interface with other groups or our own custom GUI.
