Chippies

@Avery tbh I don't know if it started before hypnodrones, it's just when I really noticed it

after hypnodrones though, it was using ~20% (per core) on a 4 core fairly high-end cpu

it actually began to affect other tabs

Doesn't Java also have a string cache?

Unionhawk

I also don't think there's a scenario where you care about s1 and s2 being different references that the compiler will do this

@PrivatePansy don't you have to do something like === though

Private Pansy

@Unionhawk Not in Java

God dammit

== in Java is referential equality

Unionhawk

At least the expected behavior occurs

fredley

==  -Not strictly equivalent to 'equals'
=== -As close as you'll get

Private Pansy

Value equality is the .equals() function, unless you're comparing primitives, in which case it is ==. One of the many reasons to hate Java.

Unionhawk

I guess I just usually expect == to use value equals for strings, even though strings are almost always a reference type

RedRiderX

@Avery But he's also being a little less grim:

Why Die?

►

well, a little less grim

MBraedley

@PrivatePansy s1 == s2 is the same as s1.equals(s2) is the same as s1.compareTo(s2) ==0. compareTo explicitly does a character by character comparison.

Unionhawk

The example they showed before was Uri, which overloads == to force value equal in C#

Private Pansy

1:27 PM

@MBraedley The first and second are only the same if both s1 and s2 are in the string pool

Hmmm, I don't actually know how strings end up in the string pool unless they have been baked in at compile time

StrixVaria

Yeah, == comparison on Strings in Java usually practically winds up being the same as a value comparison but it's not guaranteed and can cause issues.

Tim Stone

@PrivatePansy You can intern() them

MBraedley

@PrivatePansy No, equals is literally return this.compareTo(s2) == 0 for String.

StrixVaria

@MBraedley But == does not, == just compares references.

MBraedley

I'm pretty sure == calls equals on the left hand argument

MBraedley

I may be wrong though, looking at the Object JavaDoc. But Strings are already weird and special, so it wouldn't surprise me that my previous statement was correct.

Unionhawk

Yeah, and that's why I wouldn't be surprised if C# strings force value equal on ==

Because like, Uri does it so

I would also not be surprised if Java doesn't do this and it ends up having the same results as value equal through sheer luck alone

Tim Stone

C# overloads == to equals() if both are String, Java doesn't

MadMAxJr

When I read the word manspreading, I can only think of The Thing in which the horrid fleshbeast expands, shifts, and contorts into things and consumes further flesh.

So when someone is manspreading, maybe we need to do the hot wire test to verify they're not a horrible flesh beast.

Jutschge

Please tell me the whole "manspreading" thing is a meme I haven't heard of yet...

fredley

2:17 PM

@Sterno But yeah, regardless of bag, that stance is preventing someone from taking the next seat without moving him

Jutschge

Or are there people that are 100% serious about it?

fredley

@Jutschge It's not a meme as such, just a thing that now has a word

Private Pansy

> Manspreading, or man-sitting, is the practice of men sitting in public transport with legs wide apart, thereby covering more than one seat.

It has a Wikipedia page, neat

Avery

@Jutschge i'm 100% serious.

cazc_941

@Sterno that's shebagging

except the bus appears to be empty so it's acceptable

MadMAxJr

2:19 PM

Are those handicap seats or merely handicap accessible seats?

Jutschge

Ok wait. So sitting comfortably (when there's enough space of course) is a crime now? That's pretty fucked up.

cazc_941

@MadMAxJr handicap accessible. I think the image wants you to think he's blocking them

but clearly the bus is still empty so

fredley

@cazc_941 I don't get why you're calling it shebagging, it's not really a gendered phenomenon like manspreading. Terrible people of all genders put bags on seats.

Unionhawk

Nope

cazc_941

@fredley idk, it's a funny name. I've seen girls manspreading on the bus here. I take the bus twice a day, I see a lot of shit on the bus

It sounds like 'teabagging'

Plus yeah, purses on seats are definitely a thing

Yuuki

2:20 PM

@cazc_941 You might want to call your department of transportation and tell them to hire janitors.

cazc_941

hue

Unionhawk

Also if people are teabagging the bus you should do that too

Avery

@Jutschge when you spread so much that I can't sit next to you, then it's more than sitting comfortably

cazc_941

@Avery well yeah when the bus is full it's rude to not let people sit in the seats beside you

MBraedley

@cazc_941 Still, those are literally the last seats you should sit in if you're able bodied and aren't travelling with an infant.

cazc_941

2:23 PM

I mean, usually it's an "if somebody needs it stand up" situation

Okay, the real real solution is to invent teleportation so we don't have to deal with public transportation.

@Avery well that's not manspreading that's just some asshole who takes too much space. Could be a woman aswell.

Yes, but the point is you should find a seat where you won't need to stand up.

And actually, in Halifax, you must leave those seats empty if there is at least a pair of adjacent seats available.

I don't have a problem with gendered names. Yes, in both directions. I don't care about 'manspreading'. Especially cause yeah, it's mostly dudes who do it

@Avery I mean, it doesn't help that "man" is also gender neutral in some use cases.

The bagging is a separate issue

Unionhawk

@Sterno I mean movie theater seats aren't super tiny unlike public transport seats

So I guess that's fine, you're not violating anyone else's space

Sterno

2:38 PM

Well, yeah, I don't manspread if someone is next to me

MadMAxJr

I've taken a habit of buying two seats in the nice theater that has assigned seating. Just so I can have my personal space.

First show on Sunday rarely ever fills up when I go, so don't feel like I'm denying anybody a seat. Just marking a seat 'So yeah I have anxiety issues and I hate people talking during a movie beside me'

Sterno

I can't remember the last time I went to a movie that was anywhere near full

Unionhawk

The AMC near me has moved to reserved home theater seats

And it's pretty great

MadMAxJr

Yeah, our AMC has a 'Prime' theater that's assigned seating.

I like getting seats way up on the top. There's one little cluster of four where I can get an end seat easily.

Unionhawk

2:53 PM

All of them have assigned here

MadMAxJr

And all the seats are couple/pair seats, so I'd rather not be in a couples seat with a stranger.

There's one that's like a special dolby situation or whatever but the rest are all the same

Nice

Nice (, French pronunciation: [nis]; Niçard Occitan: Niça, classical norm, or Nissa, nonstandard, pronounced [ˈnisa]; Italian: Nizza [ˈnittsa]; Greek: Νίκαια; Latin: Nicaea) is the fifth most populous city in France and the capital of the Alpes-Maritimes département. The urban area of Nice extends beyond the administrative city limits, with a population of about 1 million on an area of 721 km2 (278 sq mi). Located in the French Riviera, on the south east coast of France on the Mediterranean Sea, at the foot of the Alps, Nice is the second-largest French city on the Mediterranean coast and the...

@Unionhawk Or you need to ask 6900 more questions.

Unionhawk

That is a big number

Tim Stone

@StrixVaria raises a very important point

Yuuki

@Unionhawk For you.

MadMAxJr

Are there sister cities of Okay and Ugh?

Tim Stone

Just Nephew

@MadMAxJr Huh, one of Nice's sister/twin cities is Houston.

MadMAxJr

Man I am still disappointed in the Megabots fight earlier this week.

I gotta let go of that one.

Yuuki

@MadMAxJr Release the drone!

MadMAxJr

The ONE PUNCH opener fight was okay.

But after that it was painfully apparent how grossly scripted and over-acted it was.

Yuuki

@MadMAxJr Honestly, the casters were way too enthusiastic.

And they spent too long on various unnecessary trivia.

I ended up playing Stardew Valley with the bot fight in the background.

@RedRiderX I actually didn't like this CGP Grey.

I don't feel like I learned anything.

He was just kinda talking about how "oh, medicine's getting better" and "we might be able to stop aging" and "immortality's cool, bro".

In really vague terms.

How is medicine getting better? Specifically, what innovations might work to prevent aging?

Where are we now and what stands in our way?

Heck, what ethical dilemmas will appear when we do become immortal?

RedRiderX

3:20 PM

@Yuuki Yeah this seems like one of his very big picture videos like You Are Two and Humans Need Not Apply

They don't really discuss specifics they just get philosophical.

Yuuki

@RedRiderX Even Humans Need Not Apply and You Are Two had some more specific information in them.

This was just all vagaries.

You Are Two centered around that one experiment with split-brain patients and Humans Need Not Apply talked specifically about what industries that automation would take over first and the various ways automation would supplant other jobs.

I'm worried that his recent collaborations with Kurzgesagt are resulting in all of the technical information flowing to Kurzgesagt (because they have all the neat graphics they can use to show stuff) and CGP Grey is left with philosophy.

And watching the Kurzgesagt video, he doesn't even get left with the good philosophical questions.

RedRiderX

That's true in this case I feel like the Grey video is almost superfluous.

Though there are definitely people who are stuck on the idea that death is natural and should be accepted.

Yuuki

@RedRiderX I mean, when the alternative is cancer eyes Dormammu, it's pretty understandable.

RedRiderX

Maybe this video is more like The Trouble with Transports where he discusses the philosophical implications of basically a thought experiment.

Yuuki

There's a reason why it's forbidden to draw power from the Dark Dimension, even if you become effectively immortal.

@Unionhawk cc @GodEmperorDune

RedRiderX

@Yuuki Though Grey never really got deep into technically STEM stuff right? His channel always seemed more anthropological.

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk nice

Yuuki

@RedRiderX I guess my memory is colored by his excellent series on voting.

Because that had tons of great technical information.

RedRiderX

And I guess that is mathy.

I just put it in an anthropology box in my head.

Yuuki

@RedRiderX I think everything other than the voting series fits into that box.

RedRiderX

3:41 PM

And the voting topic does touch on a lot of societal underpinning stuff

Yuuki

Even so, Kurzgesagt got to talk about the important anthropological/philosophical stuff and do a bunch of technical talk.

I don't think they balanced the two videos well this time around.

Ok

So, there was 5 people here on accounting

They fired 2 today, no plans to hire someone else to their place

More work. Yay...

Avery

Oooooh niiice

Yuuki

@Moacir Judging from my knowledge of the field, you'll start hiring again around... March?

Avery

My phone operator gives free lounge access and fast pass thing

No bg check too~

Yuuki

IIRC, accounting departments do hiring surges a few months before tax season begins and then they fire the excess in the winter months.

Moacir

@Yuuki Probably

We have an audit in February, so we kinda have until that to see if it works with only 3 or we NEED another one
