Ol' Grandpa Trump. Why would Ilhan Omar go back to Somalia? We voted for her here. And she was elected by a group pledged to only take small donations from actual voters. If she was corrupt her funding would be cut off.

TopicLow IQ & Conservative Beliefs Linked to Prejudice
Yellow

Well yeah.

Economic Conservatives are either rich smart people trying to get out of paying their taxes or dimmer poor people tricked into fending off their own welfare.

Socially "Conservative" people are basically the dumbest of the dumb people blaming their problems on other demographics because that's the easiest thing for their tribal brains to understand.

No wait, gays have been evil this whole time?! No, come on, you'd have to be stuck with the mind of a 13 year old to believe that.

Proof is in the comments of that article. I have no idea how they survive in life tbh.

I have no doubt there are dumb liberals, because I know many, but Socially Conservative people have to be pretty consistently dumb. I wouldn't group people against specifically Mexican immigration for the sole reason of competing for low paying jobs with them, to be fair. I just have a hard time imagining a large group of poor people going to one specific area ending any other way. Any other anti-Mexican immigrant agenda like diseases or drugs is proven bullshit.

There are a couple of studies out there saying Republicans have slightly higher IQs on average, but after you take into account the different demographics Democrats have a slight edge by one or two points.

Centrists are like a consistent 10 IQ points lower in every study. Lmao.

That's really up to you. You can use type hints and enforce them with mypy.

I definitely will use that, thank you. That fixes the type mixup hole, but not the misspelling and creating new fields on accident. Intellisense from 2018 helps that, but not entirely.

I also don't care for the use of a C# 'var' for every defined object.

Memory, yup, sort of goes along with being interpreted

Wasn't the whole point of interpreted languages to be easily shared? Seems like a bit of a Python flaw. I just don't understand the point of interpreted languages in general tbh. They all have their porting quirks regardless, whether you want to do it in the compiler or not.

I sacrificed a goat and got intellisense back. Finally. Looks like back in 2018 they invented a crazy thing that let you see members of an object in the form of an obscure VSCode extension.

As if it matters. A real programmer works in NotePad++.

And wow, it looks like naming conventions are out the window. Better never use uppercase.

Now just let me make a folder to hold my classes, oh look, I have to sacrifice another goat to do that. Better throw everything in the same folder. Looks like organization is out the window.

Looks like type definitions are out the window as well. Better make sure I accidentally don't mispell one thing or else my entire program will break without warning.

And all this for the low cost of 90% of the speed, as well as once again learning an entirely new language that functionally does the exact same thing. Interpreting is the future. Compilers might effectively do the exact same thing for free without requiring any sort of runtime for the user to use, but all this open-source is making me feel good. I mean sure, people were already putting their code up on GitHub if sharing it was relevant at all, but now there is no choice.

I question why the smartest people on the planet come up with this

Well, the smartest people on the planet use this. They definitely didn't make it.

Honestly, it's hurting my motivation getting annoyed every 5 seconds. I guess I better get over it.

That is dissociation. I can get it badly after working long days.

I was sitting in a McDonald's drive-through and started thinking about being in an interrogation room. Then I was in an interrogation room daydreaming about sitting in my car. I started crying because I was so shocked from the crime (in my head I didn't commit) that I was stuck in this weird daydream state.

The McDonald's lady had to snap me out of it. Weird that your brain can construct an entirely new reality like that.

Then there was this other time I was working my boring job and became a mountain creature playing the violin (in my head, I didn't act any differently on the outside, like I was on total autopilot). This was a point in time where I was worried that I was losing my mind, but no, just severe dissociation from boredom and anxiety.

Vision is either entirely or half cut and replaced with imaginary scenarios out in these states for me.

There are apps that automatically put you into their ETF. ETFs are great, but if you want to be rich before you're 50 you've got to go with trading stocks, which take far more skill and are generally very risky.

And if you listen to the media's opinion on stocks at all ("left" or "right" -_-), this is what they'll have you doing.

https://i.redd.it/9pk3f6023i831.jpg

When it comes to stocks, if the success of a company is big news, it's already too late to buy. If the sky is falling for a certain company in the news, you might want to buy. The goal of the media is not to inform you, it is to A) get views, and B) manipulate the market in a way they can predict in order to make money, through hit and fluff pieces.

I've made $600 in the last month (from $3400) after jumping in on the trade war hysteria. That's about 20* faster than an ETF.

Also, take the analyst ratings with a grain of salt as well. Especially on Robinhood. They rarely update and are most often obsolete. There are many highly rated pharmaceutical companies on Robinhood that are essentially worthless.

Robinhood is probably the one you want to start off with.

Later on you'll want to use TD Ameritrade for the more advanced options and better market buys/sells. On TD Ameritrade you pay $6 a trade, on Robinhood you pay nothing.

And expect to lose money if you've never done this before, so start smell.
