Open carry in Texas passes

Care to expound a bit? I'll understand if you can't due to clearance or NDA reasons.

What kinda algorithms are they? As in a voice interpreter? Java? C++?

Sounds cool.

I am writing algorithms to create correlations between two or more related documents. Basically I'm building a relevance engine. I'm writing in Python, utilizing the NLTK toolkit.

My reading comprehension failed me that time.
You definitely can't out-math me. lol. I write algorithms for natural language processing that would blow your mind.

Just to throw you a bone here. I appreciate you being a big enough man to listen to a dissenting opinion and reexamine your own conclusion and recognize that you made a mistake. To be perfectly honest, I sometimes make mistakes as well.

I definitely can out-math you, and out shoot you. I have made a living as an engineer for many years.

I double majored in Finance and Accounting. I was a financial analyst, then self taught software engineer. I write enterprise level software for Fortune 100 companies. I rewrote HomeDepot's cache engine. I'm good at maths.

Thanks. My reading comprehension failed me hard. However, the statistics don't explain the reason. Why do you suppose black people are 4 times more likely to commit a violent crime?

Poverty, SES, absent fathers, broken families.

I triple majored in computer science, math and chemistry. I have worked on dozens of weapons systems. I am also good at math.

O hell no!!! A business major writing critical software? WTF is the world coming to?

Just kidding man. One of our best engineers got his degree in finance, worked in retail for 5 years, then went back and got his engineering degree and writes great software today.

I can't imagine anybody would choose to live in poverty. I think the welfare state has so destroyed black families that the large majority of blacks see no other way to live.

I choose to live in an impoverished area, for reasons. Mostly because people are not as nosy.

I've read enough of both @desert dude's posts and @see4's posts to know they can both outshoot me. Except maybe in skeet. I just love those Browning 425 O/Us.

I like skeet. I have a Browning Citori O/U, but I have been lusting after a semi-auto for a while. Thinking about a Benelli but every time I scrape together $1500 I wind up blowing it on trivial stuff like a new gold crown for a molar. I am fair at skeet, probably middle of the pack.

Me too; middle of the pack. I like to shoot though.

What about that Beretta 391? Last I saw of them, they had a fully adjustable stock and soft but relatively clean gas operation.

I hardly write the code these days. I manage developers now. But once in a while I architect systems and write stub code to get less senior people up and running. I also code review and fix other people's mistakes. Nobody on my team knows how to write the relevance and correlation algorithms, so it's up to me to get it done. So I do.

lol I think UB is a sociopath so I ignore whatever he says, if he actually makes a point in his hateful diatribe I'll never see it.

Doesn't stop him from replying to me at a higher percentage than any other poster here, even when I tell him on average once a week I don't read his stuff. It's kinda pathetic really.

i tend to think it is more pathetic when a man espouses some neck down evolution theory for years and then runs away like a little coward when it is discovered that it is a favorite little pet theory of white supremacists.

wouldn't you agree?

No black person alive today has ever been a slave in the United States....Could it be the velvet covered iron hand of the welfare state? Could it be the destruction of the nuclear family foisted upon blacks by the "great society" social engineering by elite white do-gooders, such as yourself?

so you don't think it had anything to do with jim crow laws imposed on black people by whites?

or perhaps the continuing racism from whites that leads to things like black people being arrested for cannabis 4 times as often as whites, despite similar usage rates?

are you trying to say that black people brought their SES upon themselves single handedly?

if the hand of the welfare state is so iron, then why do more than half the people that use it get off of it within a year or two? doesn't sound so ironclad to me.

i don't think your white supremacy talking points are going to cover this one.
