In addition to what others have already said, it’d be really silly to make one a negative of the other in the most basic sense, too.
There have been so many issues with electrons having a “negative” charge, and that’s a binary situation! It would be so much worse to introduce implied favoritism with basic directions.
- Comment on I hate how inescapable politics are on Lemmy, but ya know, at least nobody's constantly asking how I wipe my butt or pick up my dog's poop then completely ignoring me when I try to answer. 4 days ago:
Political, or tribal? Political is supposed to mean compromising on solutions to tough and intertwined problems.

Their tribalism is a violation of my purity test. Dumbasses don’t get to redefine what words mean, even if they’re dumb enough to vote for a braindead celebrity.
- Comment on YSK that Apple makes hundreds of millions of dollars with personalized advertising. If you have an iPhone, you should turn it off. 6 days ago:
They gave more than condescention. Interesting that’s all you read… Apple fanbois are almost as bad as Disney Adults… Ya’ll sycophantic morons.

No, you completely misunderstood my point. My point is not to describe all valid interpretations, but the one most slow kids will be taught.
- Comment on I dunno 1 week ago:
True, but as with many things, something has to be the rule for processing it. For many teachers as I’ve heard, order of appearance is ‘the rule’ when commutative properties apply. … at least until algebra demands simplification, but that’s a different topic.

Not in most programming languages, though. You cannot start names with a number. Unless you’re using some strange character that merely looks like a number, anyways. Programming with unicode can get weird but generally works without issue these days.
- Comment on I dunno 1 week ago:
Well, now you might be running into syntax issues instead of PEMDAS issues depending on what they’re confused about. If it’s 12 over 2*6, it’s 1. If it’s 12 ÷ 2 x 6, it’s 36.
A lot of people try a bunch of funky stuff to represent fractions in text form (like mixing spaces and no spaces) when they should just be treating it like a programmer has to, and use parenthesis if it’s a complex fraction in basic text form.
- Comment on I dunno 1 week ago:
Hopefully you can see where their confusion might come from, though. PEMDAS is more P-E-MD-AS. If you have a bunch of unparenthesized addition and subtraction, left to right is correct. A lot of like, firstgrader math problems are just basic problems that are usually left to right (but should have some extras to highlight PEMDAS somewhere I’d hope).
So they’re mostly telling you they only remember as much math as a small child that flunked.

Capitalism isn’t fixing anything here. In fact, it’s showing that the companies mindlessly following market inflation to keep profits up are doing worse.

If it has the AI content flag, it’s most likely slop.
- Comment on Roblox’s CEO calls moderation problems ‘an opportunity’ and platform gambling a ‘brilliant idea’ in unhinged interview 1 week ago:
CEOs are more dangerous than pedos. Mostly because they’re far more open and have the money to do damage to more than those they psrsonally meet.

lol what a joke.

rofl you are beyond a pathetic joke. Congratulations on being a pile of shit.

Silly, they’re exploited every day.

- Comment on Windows 11 could actually become the same kind of mistake Sony made with the PS3 2 weeks ago:
lol playing cards… Just admit you have no fucking clue about Nintendo.
- Comment on Roblox to block children from talking to adult strangers after string of lawsuits 2 weeks ago:
This isn’t about sideloading. This is about adults mingling with children on Roblox.

The Wii wasn’t Nintendo’s first console. The fuck do you think Nintendo is?

What makes a demon? If it’s their actions, I’d say they are quite literally demons, regardless of how they feel.

You’d be far more accurate if you said “news sites” or something instead of “articles”.
It’s not a universal truth, but it’s kinda’ true of techcrunch.
- Comment on Roblox to block children from talking to adult strangers after string of lawsuits 2 weeks ago:
and? Why do you want to enable pedos?

lol no. That’s … simply not how markets work.

If they could see the harm they do to anyone, they wouldn’t be the beligerantly rich pieces of shit they are. The sooner the world realizes the “winners” of capitalism are the worst trash of humanity, the sooner we can start to clean up this shit show.
- Comment on Why does this diagram on how CMOS switching show the ground voltage rising? 3 weeks ago:
This is just my 2c as a fledgling hobbyist and in no way an expert…
but ground isn’t magic. It’s just more of the circuit that’s not intended to have an elevated voltage. The voltage spike is induced on the line just like any other inductance issue. It’s important to be aware of what actually happens in a circuit instead of working off of odd assumptions, like “ground is always 0v”.
- Comment on In light of recent events, I'm really starting to wonder about Reddit, /u/MaxwellHill, and Aaron... 3 weeks ago:
All of that can be separately true without any conspiracy tying it all together.
The world has plenty of terrible people in it that want to diddle kids. The capitalistic model of BS is very often anti-left, but not for conspiratorial reasons: They just like money and control.
There’s no need for a grand conspiracy for most of those points to never the less be roughly true, except the first two. I’m certain Maxwell had and has plenty of better channels than reddit for finding and contacting traffickers. You don’t get that successful using a fucking public forum…
Similarly, Aaron probably had plenty of other reasons to be unhappy. It’s not a terribly uncommon way to go on purpose.
We all know Reddit and Spez are a cesspit. That takes no speculation at all. They always wanted shitstirrers off the site, because they wanted to monetize the shit without all the stink.
That’s how the world works. Welcome to capitalism, where the least honorable are made to get ahead. You should try to do something more productive than trying to tie a handful of terrible people together, though.

It’s explicitly implied by the entire conversation? If you well-aktually someone when you’re not even going to disagree with the point, then you’re just being a dickhole muddying the waters.
- Comment on What if tRump is Secretly bisexual but forced to be deeply ashamed of it like the rest of his generation? 3 weeks ago:
Your willful disengagement with the obvious truth is beyond pathetic. Sad you fucking goons do not understand the most basic things about bigotry.

Do you think Nazis practice that level of nuance when they’re rounding up people for death camps?

Simple: They’d be misinformed on Hitler’s religion.
Though again, if you think someone not being genetically of Jewish decent would spare them while they were living in a practicing household, then you’d be similarly misinformed on how bigotry functions. Especially when it reaches the point of actually herding up people under a fascist leader.

I’d say most are queer, not gay. It’s unfortunate that society pushes queer men in to the gay umbrella because most people don’t understand the damn spectrum.
