  1. I wasn't aware everyone not in the middle class was in a gang.

  2. "How to be completely disingenuous" by angel'o'sphere. A funny read!

  3. The spin is in who is getting killed. Are mugging victims being killed at a higher rate than in Europe or are homicide rates skewed by large amounts of gang violence? From what I have heard and read the stats seem to indicate the latter.

    If that were the case then it would make little difference to the average person.

    You are being mocked by children. That you think you are being gaslighted by an illuminati of "kekistanies" is, frankly, pathetic. You can't honestly believe that a group of mostly pre-20s are actually some secret cabal of nazis? Right...?

    I care when they start trying to shove IE6 levels of stupidity into the browser-wars.

  6. You were called out for that exact falsehood 8 days ago and shown to be completely fabricating your "facts" (here). Yet here you are making the exact same lie again.

    Do you honestly wonder why people consider you a troll? This is a common pattern of behaviour from you. Make bullshit claim, get proved wrong, disappear, show up elsewhere making the exact same claim. If Gab bans left leaning people then you can prove it or at the very least find a non made-up claim about it.

    I don't know anything about Gab nor do I care to and I assume a lot of other people don't either. I assume that is why you feel safe making such brazen lies.

    If Python coders cared about a nesting control character they would use tab. They don't. They use not only the wrong paradigm but also the wrong character. My best guess is because they don't actually know what they want.

    If something is documented properly then actually implementing it will generally take a minority of the time.

    The waterfall delusion. That can just as easily lead to things taking longer and work being of poorer quality as the developer tries to mold reality to the "design".

    Punctuation has been in use for thousands of years; it appears to be a proven solution. Your obsession with "positioning text" is nothing more than apologetics for an obviously flawed system. I do not care in the slightest how my code is positioned- I care what it means. Punctuation is a far more efficient and nuanced method of indicating intent.

    Being popular does not indicate correctness nor quality. That would be referred to as the bandwagon fallacy. But at least we can both agree that Python is equally as good as PHP.

    Which markup language are you talking about, exactly? I hope you are aware that markup is a class of language and does not refer to any specific one language. In XML-type languages you are simply using the tags as parentheses. Tex makes significant use of actual parentheses. Adding new "control characters" does not do anything that parentheses don't already do better. You are just using "magic control char" as opening paren and \n as closing paren. I assure you that C is Turing complete and does not need any special separate characters.

    But we already have parentheses. Why do we need more characters to be "analogous" to them? White space is a bad solution to a problem that we solved with punctuation.

    "Actively blocks" but you can only find an example from a place other than the one you were making a claim about. I have always wondered if your massive disingenuousness starts at your brain or your mouth. Do you actually believe you had a point there?

    To a certain extent maybe. Keep in mind that a lot of these "intro to programming" tasks are things that no one would bat an eye at lifting whole-sale from wikipedia or stackoverflow in the professional world. I don't mean in a "I don't understand how to write this" type of way. I mean in a "I know this is a solved problem and it is quicker to google it than to write it myself with all these people screaming in the background".

    Though I agree that lot of the people caught cheating in these things will never be good programmers I do not believe that everybody caught cheating is a bad programmer.
