Who wins?
Techieland obviously.
That's not what I saw in Afghanistan.

Claude lied to me! So here I was trying to optimize the bullet simulation. To do that I have to create a similar spatial index that I made for the bugs. That one is kept in a series of buffers, which in glsl work kind of like C structs. Now wanting to recreate 3-4 of those I was wondering if there's a way to somehow keep the bullet data in the same buffer as the bugs, but have the data well organized. Since the bug-data is an arbitrary length array that gets tricky, I can't have two of those in the same buffer... but I could do that if one of them is fixed length. Then I find out the glsl also has "constants" that you can set from the cpu-side, and that I can use them to define array lengths. Like I said, lies.
It sort of worked but the program was using the constant's default value, not the one set from the CPU. A series of bugs ensued that weren't entirely obvious to troubleshoot. When I finally got to the bottom of it, it turned out I'm back at square one. Next step: do the same thing again, but with actual compile-time constants.
How have you been doing @Southkraut?

I've seen lots of hemming and hawing as to why there's a difference, but not many attempts to quantify it. I suppose someone could go over various pool, darts, or e-sports tournaments and compare scores between leagues, but that's a bit too much work for me.
Well those are the same thing.
Hardly. It clearly means if you're organizing opposition against Skynet, you still should put men in charge of the military affairs. We may ultimately lose, but "we'll all die anyway, so it doesn't matter" is a very defeatist attitude.

Sorry, I was under the impression you were making the argument that women can contribute to warfare nearly equally to men, not that Skynet will eat us for breakfast.

But even more importantly, modern warfare just doesnt really care as much about your physical capabilities as nature did. What wins war isn't manly men with thick abs swinging their muscular fists at each other anymore. What truly wins modern wars (if things are even "winnable" traditionally now) is the logistics and science, even Rambo has no defense against a drone swarm.
Women also get btfo'd in hand-eye coordination contests, which doesn't bode well for female drone pilots, and logistics games are probably one of the most male-skewed hobbies on the planet.

Wouldn't call it "happy", but of that's what it takes, I can take one for the team.

put a retard in charge of HHS
You are, of course, referring to the person that abolished minimum age recommendations for trans hormone treatments and surgeries, right?
No, somehow this one has not popped up on my feeds.
Not surprising, for my part I've seen an interview with a Ukrainian mother that moved to California because of the war, and had her daughter put into foster care and transed. Blue states are still full steam ahead with this stuff.
"The government we set up collapsed, and we had to leave" is a curious definition of victory.
Belgium has a quarter of the population of Afghanistan, and almost 10% of it is Muslim. Moving it closer would, if anything, work to their disadvantage.
