Any time a customer is telling me a story and I can't understand them/what they're talking about and I'm just nodding and agreeing and looking interested I think of this gif

"Explaining binary search to a cop" should've caught on as a saying tbh.

[kalichnikov]

I forgot about the context to this. God this is so funny

Image description: screenshot of two paragraphs that read, "Afterward I found a chat room thread among Cambridge computer scientists, one of whom had also been told that unless he could pin down the moment of the theft no one would look at the footage. He said he tried to explain sorting algorithms to police - he was a computer scientist, after all.

"You don't search the whole thing, he said. You use a binary search. You fast forward to halfway, see if the bike is there and, if it is, zoom to three quarters of the way through. But if it isn't there at the halfway mark, you rewind to a quarter of the way through. It's very quick. In fact, he had pointed out, if the CCTV footage stretched back to the dawn of humanity it would still probably have only taken an hour to find the moment of the theft. This argument didn't go down well."

this is the funniest thing I’ve seen in weeks

There was a meadow I often crossed back when I ventured northwards from my old home.

It was a convenient shortcut, but also beautiful.

In summer the grass grew up to my elbows and there were butterflies everywhere as I walked down the lone narrow footpath across it.

Then, it got razed to make way for construction work.

(Important construction work. I couldn't fault it, even if I mourned the loss,)

(and the loss of the forested hill further south that I used to run up so fast my sister called me a mountain goat.)

Now, many years later, I had rare cause to venture far from my usual paths.

(The package I collected had thirteen stamps on it, can you believe it.)

And I thought to see if I could take a shortcut by going under the bridges instead of walking alongside them.

Only to discover the meadow had grown back.

There weren't many flowers, but the grass came up to my elbows on both sides of the footpath

and there were butterflies.

YESSS BOTH OF YOU GET ME. YES. i love love love love loveeee how people are noticing and mentioning the small details i feel like im getting a good grade in art because people are Understanding the symbolism and meanings holy fuckkk. yesssss. and the bow is newly selected too. the item name is onscreen. it was just selected. the blend of old terrain bugs despite new terrain gen features... .yesss

(^ from a previous reblog in a different chain)

good morning its the time where i point out more tags pointing out details in the piece! roses don't exist anymore and yet he's offering you one, and has another in his hand. the farlands are behind him and there's a sand pyramid in the water. and bingo! the farlands dont exist in the same version as salmon (or granite/diorite and geodes)!

( @leopardmask-ao3 and @candlenav for your tags)

and its also artist commentary time (which @silly-fox-and-its-stuffies wanted)! this piece has a lot of small things and details. there's a few very minor coloring errors, but they're intentional to reference the old bug where white lines sometimes poked through block edges (which were often mistaken for eyes and is where the white eyes myth (herobrine's origin) came from), herobrine is crouching, a universal sign of piece in the game, and he's offering the player a rose. a flower which doesn't exist in the version we're in - there's amethyst and dripstone, new coal ore and redstone torch textures, something roses never overlapped with. and speaking of version discreppencies, the farlands are right infront of the player and are where herobrine came from. in the fog and sky in the background, it evening and turning night quickly, so he's offering the player somewhere safe to stay for the night (because in the versions he came around the night was extremely hard to survive for players with no base to stay in). the hunger bar is shaking. the player has a bed, two enchanted tools (the iron pickaxe is supposed to have efficiency 2, and the bow is supposed to have power 3), some food, cobblestone and five diamonds in their hotbar. the bow is newly selected. the item text just popped up, the player is aiming at herobrine.

and also, there's a cat and a couriway reference in the sandstone as easter eggs :) and a cornflower in the background

aliens observing the solar system: [untranscribable telescope name]-59172 has 2 planets. It's a pair of relatively small, cold gas planets, called [untranscribable telescope name]-59172b and c. [untranscribable telescope name]-59172c was discovered only a few years ago. Systems with multiple cold gas planets are rather uncommon, so this is pretty exciting

[monidoll]

theyre probably not gonna know earth is third for some time, since mercury is a very small planet at a fairly medium distance. The moon, too, obviously.

Long before that happens though, these aliens discover [UTN]-59172d and [UTN]-59172e and determine d is uninhabitable and e is *probably* uninhabitable (because their idea of the habitable zone is slightly different and earth, already at the inner edge in our conception, happens to fall just slightly on the wrong side of the line they've drawn)

you’re mommy’s medium-sized twenty-seven year old. because that’s the age that you are that it says on your official governmental paperwork. be the same age for mommy. #agestagnation #sameage #nothingplay

[yuriartillery]

You're mommy's little STEMlord aren- ahem. I mean. You're mommy's little STEMlady aren't you. Go on. Belittle those pathetic humanties majors- ah? STEMlady isn't doing it for for you? Well, using masculine titles is like a major turn off for mommy so- oh ok yellow we can take a moment

[yuriartillery]

Well, mommy thinks that STEMprincess splits the difference between being condescending and diminutive while being feminine, so maybe you could at least try being mommy's little STEMprincess during this scene. The humanities majors that mommy got for you to belittle need to go home soon
