I don’t think that’s true; before computers people would get used to one way or another and it would have 0 impact on their ability to compare.

Not ignoring their point – I agree with the explanation for 6/1, but that’s not relevant here. Genuinely am not sure if they were from an area where they say “1” instead of “1st.”

Who is “we”? Americans? I usually hear Americans say “June 1st,” not “June 1.”

That’s not a good explanation for the question, because the convention was established before computers.

In terms of ability to draw a horse though, I’m more like the right side and AI is more like the left lol

So tempted to send this to my gf but I’m going to get roasted alive. 🏳️‍🌈

dismissing the claim is merely an action that occurs in the eye of the beholder. Your dismissing a claim does not actually challenge the claim or affect the one who holds it, so why even?

Well you could have asked this person to explain instead of just saying “no it’s not.” Also, as far as I’m aware, there’s no reason for positive claims ought to have the burden of proof instead of a negative claim. Any positive claim can be turned into a negative claim by phrasing it in the negative anyway, and positing the non-existence of something still carries the burden of proof.

Anyway, veganism generally has a clear rationale behind it that is widely known, but rarely do I see people seriously arguing that omnivorism is as ethical as veganism. So – burden of proof lies on you I’d say.

Right back at you

How are you going to get vitamin B12 while being vegan? As far as I know it’s not possible.

oh but it is

Only because 6502 has no BIT immediate – only BIT zero page and BIT absolute. But the contemporary z80 and gameboy cpu too have dedicated bit instructions, e.g. BIT c,6 (set z flag to bit 6 of register c).

Unlikely. Most of the time on modern hardware, you’re going to be cache-limited, not cycle-limited. Checking one bit in a register is insanely fast.

Use bit-fields:

struct {
  bool a : 1;
  bool b : 1;
  bool c : 1;
  //...
};

Edit: careful not to use a 1-bit signed int, since the only values are 0 and -1, not 0 and 1. This tripped me up once.

Necromancy gets a bad name.

They said “as benign as it gets” which is not the same thing as “benign.” To give evidence to the contrary, you must find a more benign billionaire than Bill Gates.

Wealth concentration is bad, so multiple billionaires is better than one super-duper-billionaire.

People on lemmy know that “A is better than B” means “A is good.” You have to learn to speak the language.

He absolutely can be compared to Musk – he’s better than musk.

I think perhaps the place we might agree is: rename marriage to civil union in law (and therefore there is no legal “marriage”.) Colloquially we’ll still call it marriage anyway and nobody can really stop that.
