While I admire your effort in trying to explain, he is unfortunately incapable of understanding, so your effort will always be wasted. The sooner the world gives up on SJWs and just completely ignores them, the sooner we can get back to moving the world forward.
That's the fundamental problem with the SJW ideology - it's never enough. You could kill every white man alive, and the SJW's would still be unsatisfied.
Actually, when I saw the title, I predicted that the thread would be full of self-righteous virtue-signaling SJW assholes like yourself. So far, my prediction has been spot on.
free speech actually means. Your beloved First Amendment
Wow, not even one sentence in and an Antifa fanboy already confuses the concept of freedom of speech with the specific codification in US law - as a means of dismissing the concept in general. That was quick. Expected, but quick.
Actually, this may be a stretch, but I believe that the 2015 reddit crackdown on "hate subs" not only didn't have the intended effect, it contributed a LOT to Donald Trump's election./r/the_donald arose when all of the people who had their communities destroyed had nowhere else to go, and attracted a lot of other people who would never post to/r/coontown or even read it, but were outraged that reddit decided they didn't get to exist any more. I don't agree with any of those subs, but I'm far more disgusted by reddit's high and mighty moralizing and self-righteousness than anything anybody's ever posted on any of them.
Nope, plain old MIX. I'm still working on volume 3, which is still written using "old" MIX. I do plan to pick up a copy of volume 4A when I finish this one, and I'll learn MMIX then, but for now I'm programming like it's 1969.
Definitely do finish reading the whole book before you go see the movie - the book takes place in two separate timelines, switching back and forth between the group as kids and the groups as adults the whole time, so the last 50 pages or so wraps up both timelines sort of "concurrently". They chose not to do the movie that way - this movie is just the kid's timeline, and part 2 will be the adult's timeline, so if you go see the movie you'll end up seeing pretty close to the very end of the book.
Haha - well, ok, you got me. I'm expending some effort into each problem, although for most of the 30+ rated problems, I'm proud of myself if I can just understand the question.
I'm in my third year of my multi-year effort to read and work every problem in TAOCP. It's not easy, but I will say that it is rewarding. How practical it is is definitely up for debate, though - I've become an expert at MIX, an assembler language that's never been used anywhere except those books, and is more similar to the IBM instruction sets from the 60s than the x86 instruction set.
I think you're right, and that's part of it, but I also think that the corporate drive for efficiency is contributing as well. In order to get approval to do anything in a modern corporation, you must first outline exactly what you're going to do, exactly how long it's going to take, and exactly how much it's going to cost. The irony is, faced with such an insurmountable obstacle, most of us are forced to just sit back and do essentially nothing (that is, find some busy-make-work to do) rather than actually try to produce some value in a creative way.

Well, in my case, I've been living inside a computer since 1982. Don't know about the rest of you...

I see SJW thrown around so often I just interpret as "person I disagree with"
No, the term you're thinking of here is "nazi".

... or change the law.

And don't forget - once we've gotten used to banning "hate speech" it's trivial to shift one step over and start banning "unpatriotic speech".
I've noticed the same thing - moderated forums ALWAYS end up skewing left-wing. Unmoderated forums ALWAYS end up skewing right-wing.
Only because it's too cold to go outside. If you had a Texas, you'd be exploding, too.
The only ones who are to blame for Trump being elected are people voting for Trump.
That's true. And the people who voted for Trump voted for Trump because they were sick and tired of self-righteous jerks like you.

who gets to define who the trolls are
Leftists, apparently.

I tested it on your home router, too. Confirmed.

I definitely miss the internet of the 90's. Well, not the speeds, but the people.
And a LOT more things are going to suddenly become "illegal".
That's the same combination I have on my luggage!
If only once side gets these kinds of parasites attached to it, perhaps its time to take the hint that that side has a problem.
So you admit that liberals are the problem in America, then?

that mostly favored Republican candidate for President Donald Trump
Yes, of course it did. Even if it didn't. It still did. It has to. Trump is evil, he can do no right.

Yes, but in fairness, it's well-near impossible _not_ to trigger SJW's somehow, some way, no matter what you say.
