I’ll take the Icecastle of the Necrolord. Everyone is welcome here as long as they pass (well, fail) the lib test

Rules-based order, when the rules threaten the western empire.

How do people even cope with that? I feel like dying when it gets over ~23 °C

Oh, I misunderstood. I thougth that the pic was from the deprogram sub. Thats why I went there and looked it up, because it would be very surprising to see that su censoring something like this.

Edit: It even says r/pics on the top of the screenshot, either I’m blind or I already forgot the layout of stormfront (or both)

I’m currently sitting behind closed ports and cannot find any peers when I try to torrent it. I’ll try again at home tomorrow

To be fair, that post in particular seems to have been locked because it is a repost. This post is older and has quite a bit of engagement. While a quick search in the popular subs reveals that this story seems to be surpressed there, it is not true for r/TheDeprogram. Even if that sub has some problems, this story is none of them.

The screenshot was posted to r/TheDeprogram, it wasn’t taken there, I’m dumb.

Paul Cockshott also has a Youtube Channel where he talks about such things. I haven’t read the book either, but doing economic planning with Neural Networks sounds a little adventurous, because generally it is hard to reason about it’s decision processes. And having a plan that you can’t explain is risky at best.

Cockshott also has done some work with Thomas Härdin about economic planning with Linear Programming [LP] and Mixed Integer Linear Programming [MILP]. This also slots in nicely with your original question. As @bunbun@lemmygrad.ml has said, Databases are only part of the solution here. Economic Planning is an optimization problem and you need methods (like LP) to solve it. For more complex problems (like economic planning) you will need an understanding in linear algebra and matrices, here is a nice short (and cringe) introduction to LP that I found in some math discord a while back:

But note that they use a graphical approach to solve the problem, of course there are also numeric approaches to solve an LP problem.

I just don’t understand how one can be so brainwashed by consumerism to think that a 45€ cup is something special…

I’m in too

I read that thread earlier and almost got an aneurysm. The in this one are really strong… How can you talk so confidently about something while being totally wrong?

I consider Factorio very close to perfect. It does what it wants to do very well and has a functional but pretty visual look.

And just like that, the world got a little bit better

Transmascs love this simple trick

Thank you very much! I’m glad to see that there is still unpolitical literature out there

I know what I’m gonna put on my reading list right now :D I was kind of joking when I wrote that, but now my day got much better. Thank you!

While I never played COD, these threads always remind me of the scene where they portray the Highway of Death as a Russian atrocity. Straight up revisionism…

But the in popular media are staggering. In addition to OPs examples, I notice how in LNs it is a trope that the main character gets to own slaves, but it’s not bad in their case, because they are good slave owners and tread them well… It is so fucking messed up. On a related note, I’d like to see a John Brown Isekai

That is kind of amazing and sad at he same time. But remember, _bourgeoisie democracy is the best thing anyone can hope for

As someone not too familiar with US politics, could someone please give some information on what this news means for the future?

It’s very funny that it happens so frequently and I honestly fail to see the harm for normal people.
