ProgrammingRe: Why Do Seun Dont Like Php And Mysql Programmers by ektbear: 6:26pm On Sep 21, 2012
But a language like python will likely never turn into a prostitute. Python is very careful about who it sleeps with (which features and what syntax they add to the language).

afam4eva: PHP is often seen as an ashewo programming language, so some people are looking for virgins(python etc). Very soon the virgin go turn ashewo....

Interesting analogy. And I think it might be a good one.

Sterile ke

no, but if they knock someone up, it isn't them worrying about abortion, being a baby mamma, etc.

Society penalizes women more heavily for things like that than guys.

1ndidi2: .

I hear ya!
So how else do women have a more difficult life apart from ur earlier example?
1. As a career woman, you are also expected to do the lion's share of the child raising too.
2. If you are a woman and into math and science, you'll find that these fields are dominated by men.
3. Not being able to go out at night.
4. Not being able to date a lot w/o looking like a ho.
5. Periods.
6. Pregnancy.
7. PMS.
8. Your eggs are good up only to a certain point and basically degrade past 40, so you can't dilly-dally regarding marriage.
9. A successful man in his 40s can get a gorgeous 20-something GF. Very hard for his female counterpart to find an attractive mate.

And probably more things I could list..

1ndidi2: Warning!!! We never get what we hope for.
Unhope that hope today!!
Why? I like my life being relatively stress free. If you have only male children, no need to ever worry about somebody getting pregnant, etc, etc..

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against women. I respect them because they have a more difficult life than men. But I want to minimize the amount of said difficulty that enters my own life grin cheesy

All I know is, I hope I have only male children.

Women are so much trouble even for the guys around them...imagine how stressful it would be to actually be one.

I was surprised to find myself aligning so closely with the green party :x

I guess I'm caring more about the environment these days than I did in the past.

Anyway, i like Romney...I don't think he is as bad as some make out. It is a moot point anyways...Obama looks like he will wax him handily.

ACM10: Hope Yorubas wont sit on the fence like vulture waiting for the perfect moment to pounce and feed on the caracass.
That is simply the wisest strategy. Timing is critical...it is the lesson of any (successful) predator. Ask the wolf, bear or panther about timing.

At the moment, North is boldily claiming Kogi and the Yoruba expansionists are eerily silent. Yoruba expansionist should henceforth retire their claim of some part of Kogi belonging to the Southwest.
Well, the North may have a claim to the parts of Kogi which went to visit the ACF. Who knows. But those who did so aren't from the western part of Kogi. They are from the part near Anambra.

In any case, nice try...but ... rather than crying over someone else's house which is not yet on fire, why not attend to your house burning down? grin
ProgrammingRe: Anonymous Functions/ Lambda Functions by ektbear(op): 8:48am On Sep 21, 2012
Sure.

I want to call some function f(n,k).

I want to examine it under two regimes:

1. k fixed at 1, and n varying over 100, 1000, 10000
2. k=sqrt(n), n varying over 100, 1000, 10000
3. k=0.5*n, n varying over 100, 1000, 10000

One very simple way for me to do this is to wrap f with a new function g that takes n as a parameter, as well as a function h_1, h_2, or h_3.

This allows me to avoid modifying the internals of the function f, or have some sort of awkward implementation of f which takes say a code corresponding to which function I want it to select.

So g looks like the following:

PoliticsRe: Disputed Anambra Oil Well: ACF Joins Fray, Backs Kogi by ektbear: 8:18am On Sep 21, 2012
Western Kogi is Yorubaland, yes. But the lands in question are from a different ethnic group in Kogi.

So for a variety of reasons, not clear how the matter really concerns us.

ogugua88: You like Mitt Romney? I don't know you again.
Lol. I like him a lot. I think he is really a libertarian like me in terms of views...his pretending to be religious fundamentalist is probably just political posturing.

I also like his track record of success in the business and political world.

Finally, I took this quiz and it turns out I agree with 70% of what his views:
http://imgs.isidewith.com/results-image/75197770.jpg

If it were Romney versus Hillary, I'd probably lean Romney. I don't really like Hil.

That is a useless observation. Everything is left of the extreme right wing.

Left and right are determined with respect to the hypothetical center.

And certainly the pro-business, pro-capitalism, anti-welfarist/big gov't idealogy of the WSJ puts them to the right politically of the American mainstream

I dunno. The human sacrifice stuff in my ancestral religion is a big part of the reason my ancestor (great-grandfather? or maybe great-great) abandoned it for Christianity.

Christianity is a pretty easy religion in some ways.
