    What is the best programming tool?

    I don't think making your own libraries is advanced coding just good organization. VS practically makes them for you anyway, and you can include them in other code easily. But if we are talking about native coding VS just simple class libraries maybe that's the difference.

    What is the best programming tool?

    Why not just use Microsoft Visual Studio? It's free, supports multiple languages and can make cross platform applications so that you can use them on your phone, desktop etc... Also since it's so widely used you will find a lot of helpful examples online. Bing search engine is especially...

    What does it mean to be very intelligent?

    Most of m skills are in being able to feel and picture things so that I can solve physical problems in the world, in my head. I suck at multi-tasking and learning data. I get a intuitive and fundamental understanding of things but lack the ability to remember details. For example, I can never...

    Dear Worms. SUPPORT FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!

    People try to rationalize their bad behavior all the time. In fact, humans are rather good at it. They use logic but bad data. They accept data that supports the logical result they wish to see. So they have good logic but bad reasoning skills.

    I don't know what it's like now but the admins used to rely less on very explicit rules and more on intuition and reason.

    Dear Worms. SUPPORT FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!

    Speech does have power but that power can be opposed by opposite speech. If you take away a person's ability to speak, if you push them into hiding, they only fester with their bad ideas unopposed. Then not having speech as an outlet to seek redress, they seek more violent means.

    Dear Worms. SUPPORT FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!!

    Freedom of speech is necessary for a functioning democracy. There should be no laws prohibiting or forcing speech. However, there is and should always be social consequences. Example of those consequences should primarily be verbal opposition to your speech. However, the more obvious...

    Sick Of All The Racist Forums.

    Racism in it's literal meaning is just arrogance based on race or ethnicity. I dislike arrogance but it's a human condition we all have to deal with in people in time to time. People are allowed to think they are better. I also have a problem with stereotyping, hate, and prejudice. This is...

    I think we just need to keep male and female definitions associated with biological sex and not get into prescribed identities at all. Their gender views are and should remain a personal private matter that the rest of society should not have to engage in. Our society is designed around the...

    Is transgenderism harmful to healthy gender archetypes?

    It is a scientifically provable claim that in general men are more aggressive. This is related to testosterone. Hormones are a real thing and growing up with certain hormones can also shape the brain differently than if you had different hormones. You don't need to come at it from a neutral...

    So about Musk..

    Holding onto Twitter wasnt feasible. It wasn't making a profit and was living off investor money and hype in the stock market. Once it went private, it had to be cut to be lean as possible. It's the only way this pig can win the race. Edit: the only way this fat bird will fly

    Why are so few INTPs on this forum.

    New people walking the same path thinking it's new. But for me, Im kind of reduced to reading the back cover of the book and thinking I know how it's going to end. Why we don't have any new immigrants? Probably because people go were the party is. Or maybe the food isn't spicy enough.

    Should I take the third jab?

    There are irritants in there to cause your body to react more causing a higher immune response. This results in more antibodies. I think the irritants should have cleared from your body by now. With it being so long, it's probably just damage to the inside of your blood vessels. The body...

    Should I take the third jab?

    [ Yes, but as I was saying, the vaccine doesn't do a good job of teaching your body to produce new antibodies. It does some but not a lot. I think part of that is because your body is learning to make an antibody for the spike protein, not the virus itself. More mutations aren't bad. If...

    Should I take the third jab?

    Most vaccines train your body to reproduce the antibodies so that you have a much longer immunity to the virus. The antibodies don't stay in your blood forever so your body has to reproduce them. The covid vaccine does not train your body to build new antibodies very well so you need to get...
