But Göringstrasse is not named after the [Fascist] leader but his father, a colonial administrator.
Well I mean, still fascist albeit at an earlier stage of capitalist decay. Literally only the time span of a generation separating them.
I would rather take my mathematical memes with adequate proof that functions are well defined, unique and existing 🤢
R and the tidyverse? It can even generate SQL for you.
Slap it into a VM. Name it jail. Call it Windows with bars.
It is cheaper to eat unhealthy than healthy in most countries that have no food scarcity, which means that much of the working class basically eats the scraps of the rich. As an additional consequence of the capitalist mode of (over)production, there are in the same countries a lot of eating disorders, in big part due to the pressure of commercial advertisements.
Ah, the proudest of leftist traditions: Disagreeing with other leftists. Serves us right for not being brain-dead reactionaries. Can't spell critical thinking without the C, I and A.
Having seen you sharing this list multiple times in the comments lately, I have been thinking "man, this should be a proper post". Great work and thanks for educating us, comrade o7
Looks like someone else opened an issue around three weeks ago.
Just FYI, I cannot see your pronouns in the Voyager app that I use on my phone.
I detested differential equations. However, that was more due to how it was presented than the underlying, surprisingly, beautiful math.
The only problem with courses like calc 3 and differential equations (in my experience, as a mathematician) is that they are cheating somewhat. By cheating I mean relying on inadequate, flawed or entirely omitted proofs. How can the students truly understand something if they are not presented the whole story (or at least reference)?
The good thing about these courses are that there are usually no shortage of relevant exercises!
Generally speaking, Library Genesis, Anna's Archive and Sci-Hub are your friends :) Otherwise you can try to email the authors. They will probably provide you with a copy.
I obviously downloaded a car after seeing that obnoxious anti-piracy ad.
Yes! Two days ago, someone stole my bike. That is, I had parked it (and locked it) in a bike garage monitored by CCTV at the train station where I commute and when I came back from work my bike was gone and only my broken lock was left. However, as I looked around a little the thieves had not moved it far, only down a floor into the premium "bike hotel" area that is an actual locked in area as well. So I just called the company, and they let me in and gave me my bike back.
Afterwards, I called the police to let them know someone stole my bike and that the whole ordeal was caught on cameras (they have to open an official investigation before the footage can be used due to surveillance laws). As I tried to report the theft (or attempt thereof), I had the following fun conversation with a policeman:
I get that they do not really care about bike theft as they account for 30% of reported thefts, but I mean come on. They obviously moved my bike (along with others, I assume) to a nearby area so they could collect them all in a van later that night and drive off unnoticed. The police could have sent one patrol there at the right time and have them caught red-handed with video footage of the entire ordeal. Incompetence and unwillingness to actually do their work is precisely why there are so many thefts to begin with. Had I said I was a shop owner and had a bike stolen, I am certain they would show up in no time.
TL;DR: Bike got stolen and the police sucks. Thankfully, the thieves sucked marginally less, so I got my bike back.
That is where I looked and could not find it, albeit only on my short commute from work.
You are not wrong. I got curious how much they receive in donations, but could not find anything about it in their financial statements.
Finally, conversion of vacant commercial spaces into storage facilities shows how capitalism prioritizes profit over community needs. Instead of repurposing these spaces for affordable housing or community centers, they are used for storage.
To be a little pedantic, I would rather say it shows how the capitalist commodification of labour power and how it ever strives to reduce the value of this commodity in pursuit of surplus value, makes it so resources are not spent properly due to the following imbalanced allocation of funds.
Having said that and realizing it is quite a mouthful, I understand the simplification. I still resent the implication that capitalism even has a list of priorities for social policies except with regards to how they impact profits.
ITT: The environmental consequences of precapitalistic modes of production confuse lemmies to defend a nonsense statement in a totally different paradigm.
I think it is well understood that the petite bourgeoisie are on the side of capital, not because they are capitalists, but because they are confused with respect to their own class identity. Incidentally, this is why we say eat the rich and exterminate billionaires: to avoid further confusion.
