Nobody ever checks sources.

I don't disagree, but it is a shame.

Thanks! I fixed it

I agree, that is absolutely a better representation of the data

I wanted to look up the statistics for myself and see what the numbers are, given a room size scaled around 1 person dying from firearm related injury. I chose people dying from firearm injuries because I had a hard time finding a statistic for all people who were shot. If you are aware of better sources for my numbers (or a math error on my part), please let me know. I primarily used sources from the US government, but I recognize that those sources might not be completely transparent right now. Also, I don't mean for this to undermine the intention of the author here. Every issue mentioned is absolutely a problem in america, regardless of arbitrary comparisons. Also also, transgender people are valid and deserve rights regardless of how many people are shot per year.

Say you're in a room with 2,584,401 people. 206,752 don't have insurance. 273,947 live in poverty. 542,724 are illiterate. 596,996 suffer from mental illness. And every day at least 1 person dies from firearm related injury. But 21,192 are trans so you decided ruining their lives is a priority.

The population of the US was 341,140,964 on 12/31/24.

92% had health insurance in 2024.

10.6% lived in poverty in 2024.

79% were literate in 2013. (Hopefully there is a more recent source for this somewhere)

23.1% suffered from mental illness in 2022.

132 died from firearm-related injury daily in 2022. This is the number from the CDC, which is more generous than gunviolencearchive.

The number of injuries (including deaths) from the gunviolencearchive puts the daily count at 87 (I am rounding up despite 2024 being a 366 day leap year).

0.82% identified as transgender.

Yeah I agree, asserting that all of the countries around the world believe something is pretty stupid, even as a hyperbolic statement.

Is that actually what he's trying to say?

It sounds like he's talking about what Russia thinks they are doing, not the reality of the situation.

Idk what the rest of the context is, and I've never watched Hasan.

There's a big difference between being a safe/competent shooter and being a gunsmith.

3d printing a firearm you're planning to bet your life on is a big ask for someone who isn't already a gun owner.

Also, if you're buying a glock slide and parts kit to put in your plastic gat, you aren't really saving much money.

A glock can be had for nearly $300 on sale sometimes.

This was my first concern as well... Although I suppose you could do some test prints to collect values to change the simulation.

If I were printing something really big, I'd probably run a sim first even if it were inaccurate, just to see if there is an obvious problem.

I'm not sure this would help new people much though, since you'd have to be very familiar with your printer/printing to use a simulation anyway.

Looks pretty, and familiar to vscode. I'll check it out!

I used vim for all of my personal stuff until switching to vscode a few years ago, so an editor inspired by neovim is exciting!

Also,

No Electron. No VimScript. No JavaScript.

Hah! Shots fired, I love it

I had some coworkers a long time ago who swore by jetbrains, but I've never tried it. Maybe I should give it a shot!
