You stole candles out of a menorah to cook an opiate substitute you shot up your hospitalized half dead husband with... who was hospitalized because of shooting opiates...

I'm definitely not snoopy and while "zionism" can mean a lot of things I'll take it to mean the political faction that's currently engaged in a genocide against the palestinians and those cunts can go die in a fire.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

Let me plug Ad Nauseum to you then. Pretty sure it uses ublock origin under the hood, only it simulates link clicks after hiding ads so you can kick advertisers in the shins a little bit with each and every page load. Probably costs you something in CPU utilization but the sense of satisfaction that you're taking money from abusive advertising cunts without looking at their shit more than justifies it for me.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2018-04-11 at 3:04 PM UTC in Lanny post your server specs and setup
Originally posted by GasTheKikesRaceWarNow Hay Lanny how do you deploy?
Are you big on tests? CI?
It's a pretty straight forward SSH script. The server schleps the latest code into a local repo, runs the build process, and drops the built files into a deployment location and bounces the app server. As mentioned it's not super elegant, it's probably the biggest piece of bad design in the codebase at the moment, the frontend code goes through its own build process but has to rely on some values that come from the forum's settings file (namely which forum extensions are installed), meaning the build process has to happen in the context of an actual installation so code has to be built in the context of the place it's going to be deployed. Fixing that is definitely on the todo list.
I do have tests but they're not comprehensive, I try to write a test or two for each new feature but I'm not trying to get to some coverage number or anything, I just got tired of having to exercise 10 to 20 different workflows every time I changed something so the idea is more "automated smoke test" than "verify every behavior". Also there's nothing I hate more than a huge test suite that takes an hour to run and fails intermittently so the idea is more sanity checking than some promise of correctness.
I do have a "CI" setup though Travis: https://travis-ci.org/RyanJenkins/ISS but people take CI to mean different things. Travis just tests code as it gets pushed to the repo, it doesn't auto deploy or anything.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Damn, you really don't expect this kind of thing. What percent of the college population do you think even knows who Schopenhauer was, let alone has read some of his work? It seems he has a genuine interest in and passion for philosophy.
I also saw him walking hand in hand with his girlfriend one day and she looked very well dressed and pretty. Very nice.
A student taking a philosophy class at a university has read a famous academic philosopher? Shocking!

2018-04-07 at 11:07 PM UTC in Lanny post your server specs and setupIt's a pretty standard two server setup with one running the DB and one running the web server. Both are virtualized with the same "hardware" on each, exclusive control of 2 cores out of an E5, 2GB RAM, 60GB of SSD storage. The DB is postgres and that's pretty much the only thing that runs on that server. The other one runs nginx in front of uwsgi. The deploy process is a little janky because the builds happen on the web server but it works out fine.

Originally posted by Enter yeah, and nothing has ever had a more profound effect on my life than oxygen, but i'm not constantly debating with people on the internet about the makeup of that element
you know what i fucking mean nigga
I mean if you want a real answer then the reason I study and care about things like political theory (and I use "study" and "care" very loosely here) is mostly that it's fun to bullshit about. I know I'm never going to live in a communist state, and that no amount of critique here or in any other venue is going to change anything but at least it can be stimulating conversation.
But I do at least believe the things I say (except when sarcastically communist-posting), even if I don't think it will change anything, and on some level it's easier to accept and deal with issues in our society when you look at them as product of a coherent system instead of random acts of god or physical laws or something.
Originally posted by Sophie The shit you attribute to capitalism is actually what you get when you have capitalism + government.
It's not capitalism's fault governments exist and corrupt everything they touch.
Well that's exactly my point. It's not communism's fault that dictatorships of the proletariat often operate on immense and violent political repression and fail to transform into real communisms either. You're making the exact same argument as the "not real communism crap" you mentioned earlier.
I'm down on capitalism as a modern institution a lot but I do appreciate that there's a beautiful model of decentralized resource allocation in free markets, and I think in contexts that aren't nation state economies it's optimal. A very non-serious but I think interesting example artificial economies like those in video games where there are no real externalities and systematic restraint of extra-economic activities (e.g. you can't establish a monopoly, or there are mechanics to mitigate monopolies) it produces really interesting and efficient economic configurations.
The problem is this isn't how real capitalisms work. Externalities do exist, monopolies can be formed, market participants act irrationally all the time and aren't purely self interested.And even if all you were saying were correct, i would still rather live in a real world capitalist country than a real world communist country because we all know how the USSR and Mao's China turned out to be. Oh and Venezuela don't forget glorious communism in Venezuela. If you want about to talk about empirical evidence.
I mean I agree that I would much rather live in a western "democratic" capitalism than the USSR. I see the point you're making here, and it's true, it's better to live places that happen to call themselves capitalisms than those that call themselves communisms. But the USSR was never a communism, not even a deformed or poorly functioning one, it satisfied none of the criteria that define communist states. I think it's reasonable to argue that the USSR is further from a true communism than, say, the USA is from a true* capitalist economy. But even if it's not, you'll notice I never criticized some failing of an actual system that's casually called capitalism as a fundamental issue with capitalism. You were the one that made a claim about how communist societies are organized that was simply untrue, even with respect to "real world communism" as there was no real world system being talked about in which "the party" exists.
* taking true to mean the ancap formation of capitalism I assume you're defending here.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Oh no no no, the drunk moderation isn't going anywhere. This is not up for discussion.

2016-12-18 at 1:54 AM UTC in Anybody do work in research?As usual malice goes and makes things oh so dramatic but there is a kernel of truth there.
I did some research with biomedical imaging and mesh construction when I was an undergrad, I've been considering grad school because research was very rewarding work on a personal level. I wasn't really "keeping up" with research in the field, I was more trying to survey the field and look for prior work on the subject I was looking at, so trawling through JSTOR and back issues of ACM/IEEE. I probably skimmed a hundred plus papers over a semester although there ended up being like 5 or 6 that I really needed and dug into in depth.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by Malice It's really interesting. It seems I'm at the point where the anxiolytic and dissociative effects don't necessarily calm me down, but may actually make me far more capable of actually killing people due to lowering inhibition. I just have a constant urge to kill everyone around me. It's literally almost non-stop, every single day.
I love ya malice but this kind of posting has got to stop. It's so fucking cringey, like something my 13 year old cousin would say and I'd have to resist the urge to curl up in a ball of embarrassment-by-proxy after hearing.

What a journey, man. What a crazy crazy ride when the answer was there all along.
Socrates: What is the nature of justice?
Cephalus: Telling the truth, and paying one's debts!
Polemarchus: To pay one what one is due!
Thrasymachus: The will of rulers!
Glaucon : The will of the mighty!
