I feel like this is something I should know, but.. don't. Does it mean you can define a byte using e.g. eight XOR operations?
It's weird and doesn't mean anything. A basic logic gate takes one or two bits as input and outputs a bit, and there are 8 bits to a byte. Therefore, eight logic gates produce a byte of data. That's what they're getting at.
But this doesn't really make sense here. You can't define a tweet in those terms. You don't say "the first bit of the first letter of the tweet is 0 XOR 1". It doesn't make sense to talk about it that way (even if that bit actually is 1!).
What we're really talking about is memory. You do create memory with logic gates. But it's more than one per bit. If you want a 1, you're not going to use one gate to produce that 1, you're going to use four gates to create a simple flip-flop, and then you use that flip-flop to store a 1.
Do you not define characters bitwise using only OR and AND?
I always refer to myself, in little endian, as OR 1 AND 0 AND 0 OR 1 AND 0 AND 0 OR 1 AND 0
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

I just got into it with our security guard. He is so invested in stopping theft and I’m like- listen, I will do the things I’m empowered to do. That list of things is very small. And he kept using verbiage like, well, I *notified* you so I’m not sure what else I can do *crossed arms*
Nothing! Same as me! We have strict non confrontation policies. We are insured against theft. Fucking… stop acting like you did your job by telling me and now I’m ignoring it or shirking my job duties. You giant self important asshole.
I flipped out on a greeter once who stopped me to search my cart and I feel really shitty about it still.
At walmart you don't have to stop
But it makes them real mad
But like, I ain't standing in line for you to check that I didn't steal anything. I mean I'm also not shopping at walmart anymore, the pandemic broke that habit finally.
This shade from an investor group about Bobby Kotick's 200m "bonus" is great
The use of video games as one of the few entertainment options available amid the COVID-19 pandemic, for example, has been a boon to many companies in the gaming industry irrespective of executive talent or strategic decisions."

Man my Stash account is just taking a bath right now. I hope people figure this short stuff out soon.

Yeah I should have done that but instead I turned it into a Curb Your Enthusiasm bit where I got to be Larry David only after it was over I didn't get to go home and be a millionaire.
Did they ever amend first contact protocol after Riker and Kirk? Cause you'd think part of it would be "don't put your dick in the local fauna"
I watched an episode last night where Picard straight up had a relationship with a science officer, asked the ship's counselor if it was appropriate, was told HELL YEAH GO FOR IT MAN and then after she got put into danger, she transferred to another ship rather than have to deal with the unfortunate power dynamics of her boyfriend sending her into life and death situations.
And then another episode where Picard hit a guy with the saddle he keeps on the enterprise.

Season 6 is both good and super weird.
I mean the saddle is the payoff to the bit about him pawning a profoundly annoying diplomat off on Data by claiming he'll need to go get his saddle if they're to go riding later.
right, i am a mandated reporter, and always have been. But were you say that my job was reporting instances of abuse or assault, i would say that it most certainly is not my job. It's something i'm required to do but it isn't my job. Maybe it's just that I tend to sort my responsibilities. So my responsibilities qua teacher, are different than my responsibilities qua school employee generally, which are different than my responsibilities qua human being. I don't think that anything is gained by conflating all of those and saying anything that involves my work in any way is my job.
I fail to imagine how this is anything but pedantic hairsplitting.
Fine. It's not your job. It's still your responsibility, which is the exact word that started the conversation, and I don't recall me using the phrase "it's your job." But I'm not going to go back and check, because even if I did use that phrase, it doesn't matter, because this is pedantic hairsplitting.
You have a job. That job confers a responsibility (reporting instances of abuse or assault). The proximal reason you have that responsibility is because you work a job that confers that responsibility. If you quit your job, you would no longer have a responsibility as a mandated reporter. Most people would refer to this as a "job responsibility." Trying to argue something akin to 'it's my responsibility as a school employee but it's not my job' is such masturbatory pedantic hairsplitting that I'm genuinely annoyed at myself for responding to your post with anything but

I just spend five goddamn minutes trying to find the clip from Necessary Roughness where Scott Bakula gets pushed aside by a saddle so I could make a Captain Archer joke and youtube didn't fucking have the clip.

Riker fucks a crab princess
Ironically they're not in the crab nebula.

They've set pincers to lethal
They were kicked out of the crab nebula after Riker managed to make it extremely literal
That's why they call it an away mission, because you walk away from it carrying a space STD.
crab-tabalism has made us this way
hey, you, what-dya see
something beautiful something free
They stay pretty quiet about it after Riker accidently depopulated a planet by carrying an std he was immune to across 8 lightyears.
If this was a rule no one would join starfleet

Which is itself super weird, but it still plays.

I think it wouldn't be your responsibility, once they're on fire?
Like your job really ends when combustion begins, you dont have jurisdiction to release the boulders, let alone direct the area boss
But if they take the treasure then there won't be any more adventurers wandering in for me to set fire to.
Right, but that's a systems problem. Your organization failing to procure combustibles is a matter of logistical inefficiency.
But the lich is using the logistics people as a screaming bone gate.
