I too hate this quote for that reason, thank you for your service o7
Doing the same thing over and over with an expectation to see differing results is also science.

But also if you keep running the compiler without changing any of the code hoping for the errors to be magically gone, you are insane. So there’s the same logic being applied to insanity in computer science

Idk, if you’re doing the same thing after your training that you were doing before, you either didn’t need training or you weren’t successfully trained.
It’s an idiom, it’s not meant to be a clinical diagnosis. Like, yeah if you’re psychiatrist says it to you qnd tries to have you institutionalized, that’s obviously a problem. But I highly doubt that’s ever happened, certainly not in the modern age.
Ultimately, it’s actually the same exact idea as “Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it,” but in less politically correct terms.

For the training, I’d argue that you’re not trying to get different results.
Each time, the result is minor growth in whatever your goal is, be it strength, muscle mass, or endurance, etc.

think the meme has some grounds for truth. of course it was designed to be a dramatic speech for a scary character but it has some grounds to it: this may not be the truth but its how it feels. By doing the same thing over and over again and seeing no chance you go insane, and as such it feels like doing so is asking for insanity, thus the characters speech!

Yeah but Vaas is iconic and absolutely arresting in every scene he’s in.

The brand with the bird and all was actually one of the more valuable parts of Twitter that he bought…
He’s been hanging onto that x.com url for so long, he insists it’s gonna get used
The best part is he had to buy the rights back from Paypal, he just did it back in 2017.
It’s like trying to have the hero fight a giant spider in every movie you make.
Spiders are the fiercest killers in the insect kingdom
Spiders aren’t insects.
Tell that to John Peters
Is anyone going to tell Elon he cant own the letter X
That’s a pretty terrible trademark
Tell that Apple.
Didn’t they try to sue someone for using an apple as a logo in Switzerland?Not sure about Switzerland but they did try in Poland https://www.pcworld.com/article/461258/apple_vs_a_pl_tech_company_sues_online_polish_grocer_over_logo.html
curious what the result of this case was, quick search didn’t come with any updates.
Very hard to find updates indeed, this doesn’t say much more but it’s from 2015 https://itkey.media/apple-sues-polish-entrepreneur-over-ap-pl/
I don’t quite understand the rage against this guy, imo he’s one of the more likeable and interesting billionaires in the world. At least he has visions and wants to change the world for the better, something you cannot say about Jeff Bezos or Mark Zuckerberg etc.
He suggested that Ukraine should surrender to Russia and give up their Land. His own daughter hates him so much that she expressed in court that she doesn’t even want to inherit his money or be related to him in any shape or way. He cancelled the Tesla order of a blogger after the blogger said he was disappointed that Elon musk made a bunch of people wait for multiple hours without communicating anything. He is known as a bad boss that overworks his workers and pays then poorly. He has shown himself to be transphobic, ableistic, racist, ageist, hypocritical and a liar
I like that guy. Very likeable.
He’s a vocal transphobe and all around nasty piece of work, and he doesn’t want to change the world for the better - he wants to use that narrative to line his wallet for the better.
He is an alt-right douche and it escapes me how him constantly being purposely antagonistic for fun lends to being “likeable”. The abhorrent political views would be enough, but there’s a lot more.
Reasons:
He is a petty person; he called one of the divers saving Thai children a pedo, tried to get a lawyer fired for successfully suing him, is suing the firm which forced him to buy Twitter
He fights unionization while tesla has safety and racism issues, and just look at spaceX on glassdoor
His securities fraud, plus dogecoin pump and dump
He dislikes mass-transit and blocks actually helpful transit ideas with Boring & Hyperloop
And ofc his management of Twitter leaves much to be desired
