    Do you believe the elections are even more of a sham when the Democrats do this, or are you a fucking pretender?

    The real real news:

    The Democrats now only control...

    ... 24% of State legislature seats.
    ... 32% of Governor seats.
    ... 44% of House seats.
    ... 46% of Senate seats.

    The Democrats have less than 1 out of 4 State legislatures now, and less than 1 out of 3 Governorships.

    The Democrats got wiped out nation-wide at every level.

    Thats the real news. Your welcome.

    Not only would there need to be thousands of Russian agents going from place to place hacking the machines, the agents would also need to be on the voter rolls, and they would have to have a hack for several dozen different types and versions of these machines.

    In other words, we all knew immediately that the Russians didnt hack out elections. Some people are choosing to ignore their own knowledge on purpose. Choosing to be fake. Pretending.

    This could be coincidence, pure statistical noise, or correlated with some other factor that makes both the above true. We'll probably never know.

    We knew almost immediately after the claim that the machines were hacked. You've been pretending that we dont ever since.

    And if you're voting for the lesser of two evils, then how is it hypocrisy to complain that the lesser evil is still evil?

    The sad thing is that a Nation State did try to influence the American election, but it is most unfortunate that the Nation State guilty of this offense against Americans is America.

    Now its quite a broad brush to say that "our government" tried to influence the election, when really it was just certain influential members of it. There is a faction of our government that even thinks that its OK to use the IRS to influence elections, and this factions also has some editorial control over significant portions of the main stream media who are themselves more than eager to allow it.

    Sometimes the main stream media makes a mistake and has an actual journalist on. The outcome is not good for the bottom line narrative.

    The Democrat party was just wiped out. They didnt just miss the Presidency, and any House/Senate control. They got wiped out in State Houses and Governors Mansions country-wide also. The main stream media is not talking about how the Democrats just got wiped out because the Pelosi's and the Cumming's don't want a party revolution. Most of the survivors are the dirtiest of them all, they are not giving up control of the party, and they have all the influence necessary to make sure of it.

    There is a reason the abstraction is similar to how hardware handles memory.

    Busting a hand-crafted software stack is far less problematic than busting the hardware stack that the cpu's call and return instructions directly use, and rapidly using a lot of stack brings in cache issues on many of the instructions compilers had expect to be low latency, significantly hurting performance.

    The fact is that recursion does not perform well on general purpose silicon. The performance degradation can be so significant that modern compilers are advertised to be able to perform an optimization that removes the recursion in some cases ("tail call optimization.")

    At least restrict your recursions to the cases of trees rather than lists.

  22. Hell we've been drone-bombing, killing innocent civilians, in most of the countries affected by trumps immigration order.

    Few said anything when the previous president, a Democrat, was actually killing the people from these same countries.

    The irrationality and hypocrisy of it all tells us whats actually important to Democrats, and its neither immigration nor the lives of innocent people. Its those evil Republicans that are actually important to Democrats. If Republicans disappeared the Democrats would stand for nothing at all.

  23. Granted, Ivey and Cheng had some knowledge that the casino was not privy to, specifically the asymmetrical pattern on the cards.

    I find it dubious to assume that the house didn't know about the flaw in the cards. This is the type of flaw that they are filtering against when they receive a shipment of cards. Everything gets inspected. A mistake was made that led to the cards being allowed out on the floor, and that happened well before Ivy requested a particular color deck setup. Normally the color of the setups in a casino are on a daily rotation and they have spare colors if a setup has to be pulled. My guess is the casino knew that there was a problem with that set of setups leaving them out of daily rotation, but still kept them there as a spare set of colors, which Ivy had the make a special request for.

    Probably an internal 'norm' of secrecy led to this. It was noticed at some point by someone in the table games department, but there are only a small handful of people in gaming that are going to ever learn of it. Table games pulled them out of rotation on purpose, but didnt do the right thing, leading to an accommodating pitboss who wasnt privy to the secretive reason why those colors werent in daily rotation.
