What’s “agit prop”? Like “agitative propaganda”?

I really appreciate it. I probably need to do a little more reading, if only for the potential to become a better teacher. Meeting people where they are is my standard approach as is… it just takes so long! And feels like you lose ground all the time; but I guess you can only lead a horse to water. Saving your comment for continued learning

Yeah, I guess so. But how could we attract people to class-issues , without having them become defensive about their current understanding/beliefs? Maybe I just feel disheartened lately and need to refresh my spirit a little

I guess you’re right (well, 'correct"… you know what I mean). I just wish there was a better/faster way to attract people into wanting to learn about how it could be different, rather than “shocking” them and potentially having them dig in their heels

I’ve always felt that the majority of people aren’t inherently selfish, and would prefer to help others (if they weren’t simply trying to survive). I mean… I guess I’m just trying to say that “capitalism” seems to always end the same. But also, writing it out loud makes me feel like I’ll be targeted

I wish there was a way to make people feel safe as they try to learn about different solutions

I’m not trying to say the “left” and “right” doesn’t exist, and it absolutely needs to be talked about… just that hounding on one broad idea can sometimes make people dig harder into their manufactured beliefs. I don’t have a solution for bringing about more class-consciousness either, but I can try to disengage from feeling like the whole world is divided — when a majority would probably prefer not to play in the capitalist games if they could opt-out

I accept help if you’re willing/able to teach

That the “left vs right” rhetoric can become devisive for the people, when we should be more focused on the elite class that wants to keep us that way. But I’m rather dull, so maybe my points are dumb

Proceeds to miss the point entirely, and continues being divisive

But I’d rather have your shitty take on my side, than a billionaire’s shitty take on humanity as a product

Edit: I appreciate y’all talking with me about it

Fucking thank you! I’m a little tired of the ideological bashing. When less than 1% of the population is choosing imaginary profit over actually trying to fucking help… I don’t give a flying fuck if you’re left, right, center, liberal, tankie, anarchist, vegan, or any other number of fucking labels… they’re killing us and they ain’t concerned about repercussions for being a blight on humanity

Idk how to fix it. I’m just tired of the “blame game”, when there’s obvious aggressors that need to be humbled. Stop eating your own young and fucking practice what you believe… that we’re all in this trying to survive and we aint got much say about how the powers at play decide to be fucking evil

But you, yourself, can decide to focus on the actual people causing actual problems. Retribution is just vengeance-porn, let’s focus on one obstacle at a time… like maybe agreeing to disagree, and putting out the fire that’s currently burning.

I’m sick of the imaginary divide, when there’s a very obvious one that has never been fully squashed… greedy mother fuckers and their twisted worldview

“What could one banana cost? $10?” …fuck them people, if they can’t figure out what it costs to be human

Don’t let perfection be the enemy of progress. We can move toward inevitable or destructive. I choose logically-forward, personally. Doesn’t matter my personal opinions

I’d be happy seeing every world leader atone for their crimes. Manufactured consent and all; I personally prefer a lack of cognitive dissonance

When my wife was getting her masters degree, her professor told her about it too lol. All of her professors pretty much used it. When I myself, tried to tell her about sci-hub and libgen, I was surprised that she was already well acquainted

Would you walk away?

For anyone who hasn’t read it, “The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas” is worth a bit of your time. It’s just a short story, not a long read at all… but a good read nonetheless

Incomprehension of fraction to decimal conversion is why 90% of people who say they are bad at math, say they are bad at math

I feel called out. I was in high-school Calculus (11th grade) before I “truly” understood fractions. Like, I honestly somehow managed to make it to Calculus without knowing how to add and subtract fractions without a calculator. Thought I was dumb in math until 9th grade algebra, and didn’t start becoming a bit of a math nerd until Calculus

Nope! It’s a whole new fanny pack world for you to re-create

Use a fanny pack. It’s ok to wear them again and will put you ahead of the “cool” curve

Lol, it does read entirely differently in the gen z light… good eye! If you add a comma after “bet”, it completely changes the meaning. Fun

Thank you! I was reading the wiki about the “landing” and could “understand” how a current phone would be vastly more than sufficient. I got lost trying to find how an “ESP32” was designed… and then how processor’s were (normally) designed nowadays… and how it all worked together. I guess I was asking if a single “chip” could include all of those things (CPU, RAM, ROM), or if it was multiple “chips”. An integrated circuit is what I think I was trying to dissect. I’m still curious about the inter-workings, but you cleared a whole lot up for me.

I really appreciate the breakdown, because I didn’t have the terminology to properly search. I guess it still kinda blows my mind how far it’s all progressed

Edit: And now I’m learning the difference between “Integrated circuit” and “circuit board”… seems silly in hindsight, but the terminology had me a bit confused. Super cool, nonetheless.

So I’m not an IT professional by any means, it’s a hobby. But I’m curious if an ESP32 could land a man on the moon. I searched around a bit and am under the assumption that an ESP32 has a CPU or microprocessor of some sort.

What I’m trying to figure out is: Would a processor on an ESP32 have RAM and ROM built into the chip. I hope I’m asking the right questions.

It seems like a processor should have RAM for a cache. But I gave up trying to figure out if it would also have built-in ROM (specifically, an ESP32’s processor)

Do all CPU’s/microprocessors now have SRAM for a cache? Do all also contain ROM? Or is it separate? I guess an ESP32 does require ROM for it’s firmware, regardless? And (maybe?) SRAM in it’s processor?

I’m beinginng to think an ESP32 would have the “specs” to land a man on the moon?

Idk, “how true is your statement” is what I’m trying to figure out (but I lack a lot of the technical knowledge), and now I’m curious. If someone could ELI9, I’d appreciate it

Edit: I did flash the eeprom on some XBOX TSOP chips in the past. So maybe ROM isn’t part of the CPU, but very near-and-dear. Annnnd I’m in a rabbit hold about the anatomy of CPU’s because of a one sentence comment. Please help

Hope you have a good morning though! I’m night shift, so I’m unwinding and 'bout to crawl into that sweet sweet bed
