trapped mouse posted:Yeesh, yeah, every gun owner that she's referring to is an american gun owner, so that is supposed to be a circle within a circle. The message is supposed to be “lots of people, whether they own guns or not, support background checks”, but that’s not something a Venn diagram can convey. Venn diagrams are only good for showing whether things overlap, not how much they overlap. I guess you could use a pie chart or a stacked chart? But really the percentages alone are fine.

Speaking of politics, this handy chart was just posted in the GOP primary thread... But I don't want to be authoritarian right. They're scary.

Travis343 posted:loss.jpg getting really abstract these days A loss.jpg reference is definitely not a joke, and I have no intention of making light of it. And it can be a tough and emotional thing for threads to go through, speaking from personal experience. And I know that it's often much harder on the reader than on the poster. However, I also know that it doesn't necessarily turn you into a sad, depressed sack of tears for the rest of your life. People can move past it, and heal. But seriously. It's not a joke.

Platystemon posted:I don’t think that says the opposite of what it’s supposed to; it’s just nonsensical. Well if you go by the numbers it claims, it's saying only 17% of gun owners, who make up 10% of Americans, support background checks.

"Out of 93% of Americans, and 83% of gun owners, there is some overlap who support background checks"

Dear every politician ever: Stop letting your staffers use Venn diagrams. There is never a situation you can use them that isn't dumb as gently caress.

Ars Technica has been a tech news and analysis site for ages, I remember reading them mostly about hardware, new CPU technologies and such back in the day. Pretty sure that's how I first learned about VLIW architectures. Are they even that focused on gaming?

Ars reports on the social aspects more than anything, though they do occasional game reviews - mostly the big titles.

Students are unable to control the pace or direction of their education and are denied access to even the most basic learning tools. A scathing critique of the modern school system.
