print(a + b)

input.strip() might work better for you to clip leading and trailing whitespace, or else you get:

1 2

[u/etrotta → u/Amphibutter]

input() already doesn't preserves the newline character in the end, so that isn't really required

[u/m_hrstv → u/Amphibutter]

That's cool! I'm actually learning python now and didn't know about the strip method, thanks!

[u/Amphibutter → u/m_hrstv]

No problem! There’s also .lstrip() and .rstrip(), which do left and right, respectively. Python docs are super comprehensive, so you can basically just search for what you want and it shows up.

Also, this function is usually called trim in other langs!!

I would argue that this isn’t true for Base(1) - that is just 1

[u/JoHaTho → u/kenybz]

wouldnt it be just 0? 0 representing 0, 00 representing 1 and so on? In the end it ofc doesnt matter what symbol one uses but this seems to make most sense to me

[u/AzureArmageddon → u/JoHaTho]

Yeah base 1 can only have 1 symbol to express everything so it'd be all zeroes

[u/F5x9 → u/AzureArmageddon]

It could be any symbol. It could be💯.

[u/Schnickatavick → u/AzureArmageddon]

[u/littleMAS → u/JoHaTho]

I liked the Romans, who had no zero.

[u/JoHaTho → u/littleMAS]

Yeah the inclusion of a zero into mathmatics was a highly controversial topic in history. Intuitively it makes alot less sense than most other numbers when youre not used to it. Dont think it was as controversial as negative numbers though

How bout 10*10?

[u/PregnantOrc → u/A-le-Couvre]

10101010101010101010

Let's parse why. '10*10' is obviously a String as it contains a mix of characters so we start out with that datatype and keep going until we encounter a modifier such as the '*' which we'll treat as just that, a multiplier. We also know that what follows should be a numeric value so we test if the following '10' passes as an Integer and it does. So now we have "10"*10 and nobody is happy

[u/SteptimusHeap → u/PregnantOrc]

Use in front of your * so it doesn't look funny

print("Where I come from, ") + IncorrectBeliefFactory.get() + print("."); print("n"); RandomCallToVoteOrOverthrowGovernmentFactory.get();

[u/Dummi26 → u/Tsu_Dho_Namh]

• print() and IncorrectBeliefFactory.get() return values that can be added together, and the resulting value of this addition is one to which the return value of print() can be added. I don't see what print could possibly return, but sure.
• I assume the two .get()s call print on whatever they generated, but why is it called get() then? Wouldn't .generate().print_self() make more sense?
• Why are we adding 3 things together, and then completely ignoring the resulting value? There are semicolons in this language, so nothing is stopping you from just putting three function or method calls in one line, separated by semicolons instead of + or other operators.
• Assuming the first line is written with a + to make it clear that it is only going to output one line, why is the n on its own line?

Gwyneth Paltro's vagina has entered the chat

[u/eric1743 → u/hickatheworld]

She's trying to get ratio'd for visibility. The only reason I know who she is is because she went viral a week or so ago with tweets claiming "There are no pronouns in the Constitution", and "Jesus Christ never introduced himself using pronouns." Both of which are categorically false:

• "We the people ..." (Preamble)

• "When Jesus said, 'I am he,' they drew back and fell to the ground." John 18-6

She goes viral and people pay attention to her doomed candidacy. She's running as a MAGA republican in a district that's D+28, she's not doing it for the chance at winning.

[u/nika_cola → u/eric1743]

When Jesus said, 'I am he’

Dude “I” is literally a pronoun too lmao.

[u/Akuuntus → u/Studoku]

And God also refers to himself in the plural sometimes

[u/Studoku → u/Akuuntus]

*Himself

[u/archangel_mjj → u/Studoku]

I'm not sure what point precisely you're making, but this is an archaic British thing, and so not God's own preferred pronouns.

Back in the day, it was common in written English to refer to various non-name nouns with capitalized form, such as Chastity or Virtue. This was adopted also for the Divine pronouns along the way, before it fell out of use in the original sense. The Greek and Hebrew alphabets used to write the New Testament were only in one case, so this is an entirely English-language phenomenon (although it may well have been adopted into other translations if they were made by people schooled in this convention). It is also presently falling out of use in many religious publications as an archaism.

This, of course, does not invalidate your overall point that she may well use an additional set of pronouns to those she claims to use, if capitalizing the first letter constitutes a distinct set of pronouns. Happy history trivia.

[u/sudoterminal → u/eric1743]

Being loud and stupid but following a plank of the RNC/QNC is a sure fire way to rally conservative support, especially on Twitter. It's why we've seen so many younger politicians (relative to the old fucks that mostly hold office) come out of the woodwork yelling these kinds of stupid things at the top of their lungs. While I'm sure a handful of them may believe some of the nonsense they're spouting, many of them are just grifters taking advantage of the idiocy of the right's base. (MTG, Boebert, Gaetz, the above, etc)

If you wanted to get into politics for the wealth, your easiest route to doing so would be swerving hard right and touting stuff like this. Obviously you'd be selling your soul, dignity, and morales... But if those can be bought for a few million, hey, it all works out.

[u/YeahBuddyDude → u/sudoterminal]

I agree it rallies the idiocy of her base, but what about the idiocy of our base? This woman is clearly ragebaiting with intentionally dumb BS and we take the bait every single time, giving her further reach and satisfying the "troll the emotional liberals" marketing strategy.

In the end the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it. It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later: the logic of their position demanded it ... And what was terrifying was not that they would kill you for thinking otherwise, but that they might be right. For, after all, how do we know that two and two make four? Or that the force of gravity works? Or that the past is unchangeable? If both the past and the external world exist only in the mind, and if the mind itself is controllable…what then?

[u/s33ek → u/FatherMaxi_]

Wait….I thought you always used the imperial system? Or just for driving ?

[u/Xeiom → u/s33ek]

Weird hybrid system. A bunch of stuff is metric and a different bunch of stuff is imperial. (that's UK imperial, it's different from US imperial for some things, ie 1 uk gallon = 1.20095 us gallon)

Almost all my drink products are in millilitres but milk often comes in pints (with the litre labeling alongside it). Boris proposed getting rid of the metrc label on items sold in imperial units so our milk would only display how big it is in pints instead of also having litres.

All our driving signs are in miles, we measure human height in feet/inches (although a lot of services are now accepting cm as well). Weight is in stone/pounds for humans but most non-living stuff measured in grams/kg.

You could happily tell me a distance in feet/inches/miles and I'd have a decent idea of the distance by thinking in terms of road signs or 1/6ths of humans I know.
I have a very good idea of how far a mm/cm/meter/kilometer is from being taught with meter sticks and generally being what I use to measure stuff but I have absolutely no clue how big a yard is, I think its bigger than a foot. (just googled it after typing that, ok it's 91.44cm, 3 foot, so more than I imagined)

Personally I really dislike the hybrid system and hope we continue to move toward metric - We have been doing so for over 20 years now, so that's why it seems very backward for them to try go back against that progress to a unified modern system. Seems like old people nostalgia from my perspective.

Obligatory Tom Scott link: Why Electronic Voting Is Still A Bad Idea

[u/ArionW → u/RoboticChicken]

This should be mandatory watch for anyone proposing electronic voting.

It's just bad idea, and the more you know about how it works the less you tend to understand why is it bad

[u/Tjmoores → u/ArionW]

The more you know about it the less you tend to understand why is it bad

Idk if this is a typo, but I think it may be true in that how bad you think it is vs how much you know it could well be a bell curve (or more likely an inverted sine wave)

[u/tubbstosterone → u/ArionW]

Something that makes me curious is if it were done mainly via hardware, not software. Imagine an arcade machine with up, down, enter, and a barcode scanner. When you report for your vote, you get a barcode, you vote at the machine in what essentially looks like an old apple from the 80s, there's no networking, there's no USB, everything is immediately written to a hard drive, when polls close, the drive is copied several times and switched over to a read only mode, packaged into one of those hard plastic cases from target or whatever with a specialized key, send it to a counting center where they can unlock, verify the drive's serial number and scanned barcodes to ensure everything went to the came from the same place, then read the values from the drive. If a drive seems suspicious for whatever reason, utilize the copies.

[u/ArionW → u/tubbstosterone]

Trust problem is the same - why would people trust that machine doesn't lie? How do I know it doesn't register who I voted for? For all we know as voters, it can ignore your input and assign your vote to ruling party by default, and send them a list of "people not agreeing with ruling party" later.

Pen and paper is easy, attacks that can be done only on small scale, everyone can trust it because it's basic physics that once you throw vote to sealed container, nobody can identify whose vote it is, and can only access it by breaking seal.

And what actual problem are you solving? Accessibility is the same, you still need to go to voting machine. Security? Current system is not perfect, but attacks you can make against it cannot change result without involving thousands, and at this point it's hard to keep conspiracy.

With electronic voting, the most suspicious one is ruling party, and you first need to somehow prove to everyone they can't change result before you even start talking about security.

And citing from video above "To break electronic voting you don't need to break it, you just need to cast enough doubt over the result"

Can anyone show me proof this is real? I can’t find any reference to it besides Reddit. If it was real, it was definitely deleted real quick, but I imagine there would still be news about it bc she’s been in the news before for dumb tweets

EDIT: def real and deleted

[u/LotharVonPittinsberg → u/ThatTrashBaby]

I went through her Twitter and could not find this tweet on the day she apparently made it (Aug 2). She may have deleted it however.

I also regret to inform you that it sounds real after browsing through her profile for a few agonizing minutes. The woman seems to be the newest incarnation of politician trying to get popular off the stupidest of the stupid.

[u/RoboticChicken → u/ThatTrashBaby]

Here's an archive of the tweet

[u/ThatTrashBaby → u/RoboticChicken]

Thanks, this is what I was looking for. Can you show me how to had this site?

[u/RoboticChicken → u/ThatTrashBaby]

One of the repliers shown in some screenshots quote tweeted it, which included the link to the original (now deleted) tweet: https://twitter.com/lavern_spicer/status/1554605435499462656

I then searched that link on archive.is and found it. Also just checked the Wayback Machine and found it there too.

[u/ThatTrashBaby → u/RoboticChicken]

Awesome, thanks

[u/BlazerTheKid]

Introduce her to programming and never reintroduce her to society

[u/-Chlorine-Addict- → u/BlazerTheKid]

One of us. One of us.

[u/elyisgreat]

Sounds like alternative math

[u/beardgoesbrr]

Clearly switched from lavernSpicer to lavern_spicer

[u/BEastDD]

Who knew she had strings attached?

[u/ShorsIsExpTime]

Yes, it is real, but she deleted it https://web.archive.org/web/20220803063147/https://twitter.com/lavern_spicer/status/1554605435499462656.

[u/TheBrainAss]

Wait I don't get it why would a senior JavaScript developer switch to politics?

[u/Straight-Daikon-5838 → u/TheBrainAss]

Well they’re not gonna make her CTO…

[u/Mundane-Mechanic-547 → u/Straight-Daikon-5838]

Not with that attitude!

[u/Oxu90 → u/TheBrainAss]

Politics make more sense than JS and choosing party easier than keeping up tp date with latest JS frameworks

[u/malsomnus → u/TheBrainAss]

I haven't tried politics yet, but as a senior JS dev I can very much see the allure of doing literally anything that isn't being a senior JS dev.

[u/coffeebeards]

I don’t know who this person is and I am not from the US but this is why we laugh at the US.

1 + 2 = c

1 is 49 (0x31) in ASCII

2 is 50 (0x32) in ASCII

49 + 50 is 99 (0x31 + 0x32 = 0x63)

99 (0x63) is ASCII for c

[u/x9craze]

“Take back this country”???? Wtf? From who? Lol

[u/notverified → u/x9craze]

Remember the cobol days? Those are the good ol days.

I don’t remember trolls when cobol existed. MAGA

[u/milkycrate]

Magine getting up everyday and one upping yourself for the stupidest thing to say. Must get tiring.

[u/ColonelSandurss]

JavaScript moment

[u/_just_another_me_]

3+3=christmas tree

[u/UnusedWhitespace]

She’s going to ask the Fed to raise interest rates 75bps from 2.25% to 752.5%. It’ll be great.

[u/SkellyKingGamingYT]

Why do people shit in JS??

[u/Pushnikov → u/SkellyKingGamingYT]

It has laxative properties. Great for your bowels.

[u/VersionOmega]

Okay but what the actual fuck was this tweet supposed to mean lmao

[u/borkthegee → u/VersionOmega]

She probably meant to write 1+1=2 which is probably a way for her to reference traditional gender or religious marriage schemes. She probably meant that her traditional and religious beliefs are as simple as 1+1=2 while those deviant woke leftists reject simple math (trad genders)

For the record she's just another troll who is farming the low-iq republican base. This is what works for republicans, she'll be very successful

[u/ladywinterbear]

Are American right wing politicians on drugs?

[u/Wolverfuckingrine → u/ladywinterbear]

No and that’s the problem. I think a lot could benefit from a little LSD.

[u/The_real_bandito]

So what was she trying to say with that declaration?

Also I find it hilarious since people are trying to get Christianity to school and actual education material and topics like math or science books banned.

[u/The_Blue_Rooster]

Ahh yes, the Terrence Howard school of Mathematics.

[u/just4kicksxxx]

Ever notice stupid people usually got a lot to say?
