Why does everyone seem to assume no violence means no consequences. I don’t think a player who calls someone a whore should be allowed back on the rink. Just remove the bully. It’s a natural consequence (“we don’t want abuse so if you do that you cant be here”) that I assure you will be more effective than punching them in the face. And it doesn’t require a vigilante justice that risks escalating the situation. That slope is too slippery.

I never suggested that it should be tolerated

Game theory says no such thing.

More in line with actual (but barely relevant) game theory results: In repeated interactions, strategies that respond to bad behavior in proportion, then quickly forgive, tend to do well, and being a bit more forgiving than strict tit-for-tat helps when misunderstandings happen.

The key here is in proportion, and you said it yourself: “while simultaneously not going too far”. Responding with physical violence to a verbal attack is disproportionate and it’s going too far.

If that’s true then that’s a separate serious problem that needs to be addressed, but it can be done without violence.

A closed fist results in another closed fist. This attitude is why we have wars.

The reason people stormed the capitol is because they think they have the moral high ground and can sidestep the justice system. Consequences can be immediate even if you tell the referee.

Escalation to violence is never acceptable. Tell it to the referee or police instead.

Fun fact: most implementations actually always use 65537 as the public RSA key (17 was more common earlier, but rare now). It makes computations easier and faster, and doesn’t affect security much as long as you pick a hard-to-guess private key. The modulus is the thing that varies in public certificates.

“Experts”

Trump unwittingly did more for the transition away from fossil fuels than any previous president

Why would that kill her

But why

This is kind of why I watched Rings of Power. The plot has many problems but I just wanted to see more of middle-earth.

Fears? My fear is that the boom will continue.

And the human brain is just fatty tissue and neurons.
