"what can you do", right ? the fact they're in the mud d oesn't mean they should get out, wash up, move to town (if it'll take 'em). the fact they're in the mud simply means all them high falootin' town things will have LOCAL EQUIVALENTS!!!! |

i don't think it's just as good in-universe; it's better. keeping it real, you know, not like those jaded monied assholes who aren't Feeding the World with their inexplicable windfalls like they would. besides, their bower's stacked with comfortable consumer plastics, the best mudpies that could be --mudpies necessary, in fact, for existence. the town folk can't even tap screens to digest dinner, they sit around and TALK, like, to real faces, who |

so apparently in php, != is a legitimate op in if expressions. = however, IS NOT. == MUST be used. |

who the fuck comes up with this shit |

hanbot, i suppose frances mcdormand is the consummate icon of this outlook. not just in fargo, remember that scene when she is unhappy with the level of service the soviet embassy is providing ? "I AM AN AMERICAN CITIZEN!!! GIB MONYZ!!!" |
| 11:58 |
mircea_popescu |
if it weren't for all their self-loathing, she'd be a lot more popular i guess. |

hanbot doesn't remember this scene, but the theme's recognizable generally. |

mircea_popescu: the = vs == is because of the confusion assignment vs comparison |
| 12:45 |
diana_coman |
sure, inconsistent and annoying, there's no argument there. |
| 12:46 |
mircea_popescu |
assignment in if clauses is probably the dumbest c-ism ever |
| 12:46 |
mircea_popescu |
just denotes this utterly incorrect pile of mental processes, kids who cram before exams tend to think this way. |
| 12:46 |
mircea_popescu |
but irl, the time to fatten the pig and the time to cut open the pig never overlap. |
| 12:48 |
diana_coman |
sure, no argument there either; it is how the whole pile ends up that big and stinky and intricate, after all. |

http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/trilema/2020-01-05#1956629 - this is very much so as far as I have seen/heard it/even had it explained to me in as much detail as I could listen to, over and over again. |
