Peaceful protests are more likely to succeed and no peaceful protest that drew in 3.5 percent or more of the population has ever failed.

Once you use violence, they will use that to justify using violence and putting down the movement.

You want to win people’s hearts and minds. You do that by being peaceful. Your opponent will make a mistake, but you stay peaceful. Remember MLK Jr.’s successes.

Edit: downvotes, sorry that history and facts don’t support your view of things. But, don’t do violence and damage the movement for the rest of us.

Minnesota is a solid blue state that deserves to join Canada as well

I agree, I think it’s a strategy to separate the left. We should have a workers movement because it will literally unite everyone that is not a 1 percenter

Your insight is incredibly important.

Edit: Why is this being downvoted? Makes no sense. Are you not a worker?

I hate 25 mph zones with aggressive speed bumps that force you to do 8mph

C++ has classes though and if you start with C and then try to go to other Object-oriented languages you’ll be a little lost. But, by learning C++ first, you’re pretty much learning C at the same time, you just need to avoid using classes.

I learned C++ as my first language and it was a great way to understand the core issues of a programming language — like memory allocation, memory freeing, the difference between memory addresses and the memory contents themselves, threads, system calls, etc. Java obscures these nuances to a degree, but Python is too friendly and makes it hard to understand them at all.

I believe if you learn C++ you can easily learn any other language. After C++, I learned Python, JavaScript, and Java in a few days each without formal instruction. If you learn Python first, you’re probably going to struggle learning those other languages because you haven’t grasped the lower level concepts yet and may never if you’re not in a formal setting that forced you to learn them.

No one disagrees that Python is easier, but if your goal is to get a foundation in programming that allows you to easily pick up other languages, you should start with C++.

I thought they disabled DMs when some influencer refused to have Elon Musk’s babies and shared her DMs with a friend

Palmer Luckey is one of the ugliest mother fuckers I’ve ever seen in my life. Glad to see him and Zuck buried the hatchet, now that Zuck is kissing Trumps ass.

The AI industry not asking artists for permission will kill the art industry.

My social studies teacher cited this 20 years ago as a major reason electronics manufacturing was done primarily in China and other Asian countries. Point being — it’s hardly The NY Times saying this on its own. It’s widely accepted.

Yeah he was on Screen Savers with Sarah Lane (who he dated) and then Alex Albrecht. TechTV was bought by G4 and Screen Savers became Attack of the Show. While at TechTV, he started digg and actually advertised it on the Screen Savers, without clarifying that he was the owner (sneaky). Later, G4 fired all the Tech TV staff, so Kevin worked on digg full time. He went on to start diggnation podcast with Alex Albrecht — which they’ve recently brought back. As many know, when digg v4 launched, it was widely rejected, and the site lost its user base to Reddit. Now he’s trying to revive it with one of the Reddit cofounders after more than a decade.
