@ooolb hard school to get into right? did you get great grades? toronto big in the news this year as deepmind expands there, you picked an excellent loc wrt that at least... thestar.com/news/gta/2017/03/28/… engadget.com/2017/07/05/google-opens-deepmind-lab-in-canada

ooolb

hmm

@vzn i cheesed my way in

vzn

@ooolb lol sounds unlikely

ooolb

but ya i got alright grades i didn't really care about school that much but hey here i am

vzn

did you go to HS in Can?

ooolb

19:01

yeah

lived here all my life

vzn

how long have you been on SE chat? did you chat elsewhere before here? the culture can be "unique" here as youve experienced lately...

Balarka Sen

@ooolb these kind of things make you feel like you could be like the world's biggest composer of all time, but then you remember the people who came up with these ideas were pioneers in classical and modern music theory

that's me playing music mouse right now lmao

ooolb

@vzn people here are kind of weird and like to blow up every discussion if it doesn't conform to what they think is appropriate or w/e but that's cool too

just wish they'd understand irony better

@BalarkaSen i've been jamming to this random ass drum beat for 30 minutes now

Balarka Sen

hahah

same

ooolb

feels good to know i'm the only person in the entire world who listened to this beat

i'm special

vzn

19:06

@ooolb this has turned into one of the busiest chat rooms in all of SE, and the mods are quite active here esp "1 in particular", also highly infl by other hi rep user moods, unf there are not really many other active rooms... know what you mean about irony/ humor impairment :|

Balarka Sen

lololol

ooolb

it's just poe's law

this chat is the textbook example of it in the real world rofl

ACuriousMind

If you have constructive criticisms to make, please do so. If you just want to rant about moderation here, please do so elsewhere.

nobody ranted about the mods

@Blue uh, the sausage...

ooolb

@ACuriousMind delusion gets people nowhere too

Slereah

19:11

Phew

Almost grabbed the soldering iron by the iron

Close fucking call

Balarka Sen

@ACuriousMind C'mon. He was simply saying that the chat has strict rules against ironical humor

That's perfectly true

vzn

@ACuriousMind sounds like kind of a trap or catch22 to me, honestly dont think have really seen constructive criticism tolerated in here/ elsewhere by mods. seems more "circle the wagons" mentality. hope youre not gonna kick me just for saying that. o_O

Balarka Sen

He made a completely constructive point and there wasn't any complaint on ooolb's part. I don't think you're reading his statements correctly.

caman san

0celo7

@Blue does it at least look good??

it tastes amazing

vzn

@BalarkaSen lol yeah "kicked" into submission eh? o_O

ACuriousMind

19:14

@BalarkaSen And implying the reason is a lack of understanding of irony. It's continuing a pattern of low-level aggressiveness that should stop before it escalates.

ACuriousMind

::sigh::

Balarka Sen

@ACuriousMind Yes, this chat is not 4chan. That's not a low level aggressiveness.

Mozibur Ullah

delusions are ok; its tautologies I don't like, they don't get you nowhere...

Balarka Sen

I think calling out plain and simple statements as "microaggression" is more dangerous for any community's health than throwing around 4chan humor, in fact.

vzn

← feels increasingly paranoid around certain users/ mods who seem to get triggered easilly o_O :(

ACuriousMind

@BalarkaSen Sure. "You just didn't understand my brilliant joke" [hyperbolic paraphrase] is refusing to stand behind what one said. Calling me "delusional" or "paranoid" is not constructive, either.

Balarka Sen

19:15

That's a very recent habit the internet age has gotten into.

Anonymous

@BalarkaSen I can clearly see some passive aggressiveness on ooolb's part since he came back after the ban.

Balarka Sen

@Blue Yes, I am not backing his trollish behavior.

That's a separate discussion

CooperCape

I refuse to engage in another discussion on someone being salty post-ban

Balarka Sen

@ACuriousMind Well, yes, I do not think he should have said either of those things instead of explaining his standpoint like I am right now.

CooperCape

Blue those videos look beautiful

and so does Axler himself.

@CooperCape Right. It summarizes the book's theory

ahem, saw the commotion over ooolb in the transcript. he apparently hasnt said so, but he seems new to SE chat, learning the ropes, has some saltiness needing to be diluted out... SE chat seems highly regulated compared to others...

@Blue oh yeah ok chatted with him way back maybe

@ACuriousMind nooooo that's not what i was implying

those were independent clauses

CooperCape

@bolbteppa I have little knowledge on the topic so far but the only thing that I can put words to is Jordan normal form...?

vzn

@ooolb my suggestion, address him directly as little as possible while youre on probation o_O

ooolb

@ACuriousMind i am standing behind what i said xd

bolbteppa

19:21

ooolb

i'm on probation?

@BalarkaSen i'd love to if i didn't get kicked or banned for days within 5 seconds before I'm able to do anything and then have words put into my mouth for me.

but that's fun too

it's all in the thrill y'know

Balarka Sen

That's a beautiful piece of mathematics I understood only after learning linear systems of ODEs
