They don’t understand that there is intention behind art

I have had a conversation with someone about visual arts about something quite close to this: they just didn't grok any parts of it at all, couldn't engage with it a priori. on being given some context about each of the thing they managed to find it interesting, but prior to that they would have just walked right past it barely even registering its existence

(at least in this case the person was aware of their non-engagement, whereas I think a lot of the autoplag appreciators just ..... aren't)

some circumstances is still legal in the u.s.

as someone else pointed out, US-wide legal slavery (enshrined in constitution) in the form of prisoners

haha yeah I got very "we just need $29.95 billion bro just $29.95b trust me bro it'll be so intelligent bro just watch" impression from that as well

reminder: one does not, under any circumstances, have to "give it to them". these weird fuckers already have all the water carriers they need

and no, it doesn't appear to be the case that this person is merely a shitty writer

(nor is that the only thing they're shitty about)

imagine our drivebys reading the description for the place they ~~drop one out~~ post in

difficulty: impossible

the for x in y statement takes iterable y and assigns a value from it to x per iteration (loop), so what happens is that it's reassigning chosen_char each loop to the next item from the sentence

(sum([x for x in sentence if x == chosen_char]) would be a quick one-liner, presuming one has downcased the sentence and other input/safety checks)

(e: this post was in response to your 2-liner comment in the code)

those self-crush, it's apparently a feature not a bug

actual fucking anti-monopoly enforcement cannot come goddamn soon enough

oh is that how come I get so much popcorn around these discussions? 🤔 makes sense when you think about it!

some high-grade honesty from netflix:

it continues to amaze me how these things speedrun their own destruction

you need to look at better art
