    I agree completely. All the problems in this world could be solved, if only there were MORE GUNS.

  5. Re:No bias here. on Gerrymandering by Computer · · Score: 1

    This is blatantly obvious:

    The lying teabagging Republicans just hate it when it's someone ELSE doing the gerrymandering. It's OK when they do it.

    You don't have a counter argument to this, so you don't even address it, so you call me a troll and hope I go away.

    I see that treasonous Republicans can avoid answering a simple question by throwing out the word "lefty".

    BTW, I get +2 because I'm damn insightful.

    There should be certain geometric shapes that are allowed, and districts can only be shaped like those functions.

    Examples:

    circle
    square,
    triangle where no angle 45 degrees
    quadrangle where no angle 75 degrees

    and that's it. Make it fit, with adjustments allowed for any coastal area that won't fit within a district.

    So, you're saying that the treasonous Republicans are upset only because they didn't get to be the last ones to gerrymander?

    Note that it wasn't you that I flamed, but one of your users. Twas following him, because he was in my opt-in list.

    However, I am considering some restraint when it comes to flaming someone in a third-party user journal. Unless the incident is particularly grievous, I will probably not post in a user journal, unless it is owned by the person who opted-in to my flamage list. This is not due to any particular consideration to your journal in particular though. I am just acknowleging that you have a point, and in the interest of fairness, I must let everyone who wishes to help improve my technique do so.

    There you go with the false dichotomy, which is typical for a lying conservative.

    I'm not breaking your rules at all. You've blocked me out of your forum. There you go.

    You're just mad because if you game the system that way, you've got another problem. In other words, a conservative isn't happy until he can have his cake and eat it too.

    Also, there's no rules for you to follow, yet another lie of yours that I've exposed. When you click the foes button, I click my friend button and I follow you. When you click the neutral button, I don't follow you. When you click the friend button, I click my friend button and don't follow you. Those are my rules, not yours.

    I am a strictly a tit-for-tat fellow. More tit than tat, possibly, but that probably because I'm actually a guy.

    My freaks list is the "opt-in". I follow them around and abusively point out their lies in the manner of Ann Coulter.

    Don't know about your journal problem. Seems like you've got a real dilemma here.

    I don't have any enemies either. Spreadin' the love around.

    Unfortunately, my rule about the opt-in for my freaks list cannot be broken. I'll be watching, and if you say something wrong, I'll do my best Ann Coulter (if she were a liberal) impression for you.

  15. High school teechur on The Most Incorrect Assumptions In Computing? · · Score: 1

    My computer teacher in high school demotivated the class twice in one day. First, he told the class that he read some projections, and that within 8 years the number of computer programmers needed would fall to 25% of the current level. That was in 1983, and we all know what happened.

    Then, he followed it up with a quote from Dykstra saying that BASIC programming damages a programmer's ability to think permanently. Since that was a BASIC programming class, it went over like a lead balloon.

    My high school was full of these soothsayers. In senior government class (1986) the teacher was constantly saying that the communists were going to take over and destroy the country. One day he walked over to the big poster depicting the 1984 voting ballot. Reagan, Mondale, and a whole bunch of little parties. He said "By 1990, all these little parties are going to take over this country." His pointer stick was waving in the vicinity of the Worker's World party. Not really a computer story, but it's a stupid prediction anyways.

    In the future, you will receive a monthly check from the garbage company. Instead of separating the recyclables they will go into the same bin as the other garbage. If you can't use something, and can't sell it, the value of the raw materials can be recovered easily, based on weight. Garbage companies will buy everyone's garbage, use nanotech to separate out each element, and sell the raw materials to the highest bidder.
