Great, Cory Booker, AKA Black Clinton. He’ll be a shoo-in. Wait, I have a great idea! Why not #DraftMichelleObama? I can go all night with these blockbuster solutions!

Well no, we don’t need to remember that she won the popular vote, because this was always a race to 270. She knew it. Trump knew it (though he perhaps thought it was some other number like 290, or 315, because he’s a dolt). Everyone knew it.

I’ve been ridiculously surprised, actually, at how much I ended up liking the whole “motorcycle update” in general. I wasn’t expecting to be into any of it, and it’s actually really, really good.

He would be doing himself zero favors by being an open Democrat.

No one cares about that. She’s white.

Because it’s a trope in COD games, and they keep adding them to games even after people point out how absurd they are.

I bought a Blista Compact in GTA Online just to have as a reminder of the old days. It’s one of my treasured vehicles on there.

While I consider newest GTA to be the best of the series, which I tend to believe each time they come out with their latest iteration, I have always considered Vice City to by my favorite story and setting.

Rather than setting default values until he could return to them to make a better model, he took the time to look up information without taking the time to understand what he was looking at, then cooked up a simple model that poorly reflects that information. He spent more time on a poor model than necessary.

Well, so what’s the theory here? That the guy just purposely wants to have a shitty gender and relationship pairing model, because he’s a backward-thinking bigot? I don’t get what the implication is supposed to be. I think it’s far more reasonable to assume that maybe he just doesn’t readily understand how to model…

Except that this is incorrect. The basis of computing is bits, yes, but a byte has a wide range of values, and most systems deal in “reals,” which have not only wide base values, but also fractional values. Percentages in programming are dealt with in ranges of 0 to 1, with fractions in between to several thousand…

This is dead-on. If we’re now entering the stage of games journalism where we tear open code and read the names of variables in order to find shit about in-game characters that’s offensively overgeneralized, well you’re going to find that in a lot of games. The nature of programming is that you’re going to end up…

But then he says that the game isn’t meant to simulate real-life and that it’s primarily science fiction. So which is it?

I wish developers who create things with strong implicit biases, could just admit they did so with bias involved. As humans, certain experiences make it very easy to create things that cater specifically narrow standards, right?

Hillary was twelve points (!) ahead of the orange buffoon before this Weiner laptop mess dragged her back down.

Now Anthony Weiner’s dick and an asshole with a vendetta might be the reason a cheeto crusted blobfish with nuclear codes is the leader of the free world.

When a man does something wrong, it’s because a woman is to blame.

Or it could have something to do with the fact that the husband of Hillary Clinton’s top aide was preying on his 15-year-old daughter, and this has reasonably soured him to the prospect of having voted for a candidate anywhere in the ideological proximity of that asshole. Whether that’s a fair judgment or not is up…

It’s not about ignorance, as so many here insist. It’s about the fact that popular cultures predictably suck up the detritus of history, decontextualize them, and then sell them back to us as trinkets. I don’t understand why these instances in Japanese culture should be so outrageous when an illustrious figure like…

When you have people like Peter Thiel saying that tech workers in the Midwest can’t hack it in SF/SV—and this is a verycommon attitude—you have to be physically present in the Bay Area to have a chance of even getting on the ladder.
