    LLVM won't compile Fortran 200x. Intel does provide a Fortran compiler, but it's buggy as shit and poorly supported. GFortran is a high-quality product and an absolute god-send for many in the high-performance computing community.

  8. Electrically-coupled counterweight on Engineers Develop 'Ultrarope' For World's Highest Elevator · · Score: 1

    Many posts suggest doing away with the cable by putting the motor on the elevator car; but this overlooks the fact that the elevator needs to be connected to a counterweight for efficiency reasons.

    However, here's a thought: you put motors on the elevator *and* the counterweight. As the elevator goes up, the counterweight goes down and uses its motors as generators to partly power the elevator's motors. And vice versa.

    Sure, you're not going to break even due to electrical losses; but it'll be a damn sight better than no counterweight.

    And how do you handle the counterweight? What's that? You don't actually understand how an elevator works?

    Not a hard pick for me, given that Sarkeesian is (i) a fraud who has no interest in gaming for its own sake, (ii) a serial plagiarist, and (iii) simply in it for the money.

  12. Re:"Leftover" high energy electrons on Decades-old Scientific Paper May Hold Clues To Dark Matter · · Score: 1

    Just like you say -- the electrons were in a storage vessel, left over from another experiment. Except, the vessel was probably a storage ring -- kind of like a particle accelerator, but without the stuff to boost particles to higher speeds.

    "Views on the ethics of infidelity. Which she maintained is inherently wrong even if the person who was cheated on never finds out, because (aside from willfully endangering their partner by way of increased STD risk) if the unfaithful party then has sex with their partner, they are doing so under false pretenses, and therefore without their partner’s consent. That is, sex with a partner who doesn’t know you’ve cheated on them is sex without consent."

    Zoe has, by her own confession, committed rape. In the SJW handbook, that's doubleplusungood. Hence the strong reaction from the community.

    Are we talking about the same Zoe Quinn? The Zoe Quinn who shut down a gamejam specifically targetted at helping women coders, because she perceived it as in competition with her own fundraising efforts?

    Mod parent up big time. Her boyfriend has posted significant amounts of evidence supporting his claims, and Zoe has not refuted them.

  25. Zoe Quinn is a self-confessed rapist on Combating Recent, Ugly Incidents of Misogyny In Gamer Culture · · Score: 1, Troll

    Having agreed with her boyfriend that part of informed consent requires sexual fidelity, she proceeded to sleep around. When she subsequently fucked her boyfriend it was therefore without his informed consent, and thus -- by modern SJW standards -- rape.

    Zoe Quinn is a rapist. There is no way around this.
