The biggest indictment against us communists is that we have not yet established communism as the predominant/only system of social organisation with enemies this stupid. If we can't win against idiots like this, what does that say about us?

For Germany: Israel is an indulgence for the Holocaust.

For the USA: Israel is an unsinkable aircraft carrier in a largely hostile region that is protected by international law.

For the rest of Western Europe: They are vassals of the US, so naturally they don’t want to piss of their daddy.

For everyone else: they don’t want to provoke the US either.

Short version: So, the gist of this is that I want to truncate list by numerical value and can't seem to do it. I've been looking for solutions by myself for a bit, but since this project is a bit time sensitive and I am a total noob, I've come to you for help.

Long version: I have a data set from a poll, in which answers are coded by 1, 2, ..., 7, 99 with 99 being the value assinged to people who did not answer a particular question. The data was provided as a .csv file, from which I was able to extract the answers in form of a list of the form

data = [ [ 2.0, 3.0, ...] ],

thus a list, which contains the possible values as floats within a list. To solve this problem, I tried to remove the undesired 99 values using the list.remove command, however, since data is a list within a list, I can't use that command and for some reason, I can't use *data.remove(99.0) either, as starred expressions are not allowed. Any ideas how to either turn data into something like

data = [ 2.0, 3.0, ...]

so the list.remove command can do its magic or how to truncate data as it is?

Thank you in advance.

Edit: Thank you, Hexbear, for being a helpful community even to total scrubs who might ask redundant questions that can be solved by a quick google search!

Seriously, if you can, just do it. I decided to work on my hip mobility and splits after a very long time and my god, I feel so much better. It relieved pain in my legs, back and a little bit of my desk-borne headache. If you have trouble getting started, find one particular stretch you would like to be able to do, preferably some tangible goal like a full split, and hyper focus on that.

By eliminating the “Jahressonderzahlung”, colloquially known as “Weihnachtsgeld”, which effectively was a 13th monthly wage at the end of the year, my workplace effectively upended the minimum wage increase from 2022 and the subsequent pay raise for my pay grade, which is barely more than minimum wage anyway. God, I hate being poor. Time to organise some people.

More precisely, I remember reading that the Red Army had issued the death penalty for r*pists in its own ranks and would like an academic/“serious” source to corroborate this and possibly even how rigorously this was enforced. Thanks!

After avoiding anything Marvel for 16 years, and the films aren’t what I would call good, but the character of Black Widow is just a blatantly flawed. First, her name: Natsha Romanoff. It should be Romanovna. Second, she war born in 1984. She was in the KGB. The USSR dissolved in 1991. ????

Ah, the tried and true succdem tactic of “punching left” (at other succdems lmao). Worked great in Germany in the last 20s, the SPD secured power for eternity and Germany has achieved socialism.

Because their supposed moral superiority is so flagrantly undermined that they lash out. Genocide, to most people, is rather indefensible. If your cult leader is guilty of perpetrating/at the very least fully enabling and covering for it, it becomes rather clear that your support for them is not a moral or rational choice but rather, well, cultish. Most people do not like being confronted with their cognitive dissonances and thus act like this.

Just doing research over here. Also by "good", I mean quotable in an academic context.

Most of the historic record of the GDR has been set by FRG historians running victory laps and is based on anecdotal evidence at best, mythology at worst. A lot of people also attempt to equate the GDR with the third Reich (which is insane to begin with, but that's what people are taught here).

Preferred languages would be German and English. I could make Russian work, but not very well.

Edit: I know about John Green.

The dems have finally learned that being the lesser evil is not a great motivating factor in elections. They have thusly decided that being the greater evil is the way forward!

As many of you know, 80% of the Wehrmacht were stationed on the eastern front. And where did the Soviets decide to engage them? On the eastern front. If the soviet leadership had any regard for the lives of their soldiers, they would have engaged the Wehrmacht on the western front.

According to her it was only used a handful of times and rinsed thoroughly. Which begs the question WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?!

Oh no, not fundamental science that cannot immediately be capitalised on!

Seriously, why do substantial parts of this forum immediately turn anprim the moment fundamental physics research is concerned?

My guy, Israel’s population is thoroughly militarised and has completely dehumanised Palestinians to a degree of the dehumanisation of Jews in Nazi Germany (the irony is not lost on me). Even in the event of an IDF “loss”, the civilian cost on the Palestinian side will be grievous from the indiscriminate killing from constant air strikes.

[-] [email protected] 78 points 2 years ago

Israel has the unlimited backing of the great shaytan and unlike Ukraine is not utilised to grind down the military of a geopolitical rival. I hoped that the hostages taken by Hamas might deter any extreme excesses from the IDF but the unrelenting air strikes indicate that the Israeli government is more than willing to make a couple hundred martyrs.

Two million people on an area half the size of Hamburg with no possibility of trading goods or services. Good luck building anything under such circumstances.

I don’t think the DPRK wants to give an opportunity to basically any country in the world to plant spies. Considering the US used visits of the Atomic Energy Commission to infiltrate the DPRK in the 90s, welcoming thousands and thousands of difficult to vet corporate reps sounds like an open invitation for infiltration.
