I’ve played enough X-COM to know that 50/50 is actually 100%, I just don’t know which way. Better trigger it!!
30%? Let me deliver that shot with crit across the map to your teammate hunkered down behind full cover for you!
Bottom tracks, easy
Worth it
Well, you can take yourself out of the equation because you’re not tied down and can just move after flipping the switch.
chooses bottom track
“C’mon…c’mon!”
trolley heads towards committe members
“Dammit!”
runs over and jumps on the nuclear bomb pressure pad
I’ll take the 50/50 because those are some damn good odds!
those are the best odds i’ve had in years

Joke’s on you I hate myself and my family
Ok so this one just isn’t fair.
Two possibilities end up with me dead, two end up with millions dead, and one ends up with me being unemployed.
Sorry not sorry Team A and B, sacrifices must be made.
Wait, which one leaves you unemployed?
The lack of standards path of course.
Unless you work for the committee or for ISO somehow, then I don’t think that really follows. C++ and JavaScript were both used in production for decades before they had standards, and the dissolution of the standards committee wouldn’t cause compiler vendors to stop developing compilers.
Ok.
Fair.
there might be an argument that JavaScript kills more than a nuclear bomb
A Mark VI only has a 18 to 160 kiloton yield.
Can we replace it with a B83?
I’d take my odds with the bottom track.
I agree. And if it doesn’t fire the missile, I’ll go get that and hook it up to my Motorcycle like Raven (Snow Crash)!
poor impulse control
Oh, don’t misunderstand. I had that thought first time I read Snow Crash about a decade ago now. Haven’t found thought changing mind since. Just because Raven was poor doesn’t mean he made a “bad” decision in certain senses!
He literally has it tattooed on his forehead.
Been about a damn decade and I know I need to read it again.
sudo rm train.sh
problem solved 👍
Which metropolitan area?
Assuming it is in the US, at 4.5 million it can only be San Francisco/Oakland/Berkeley.
would the bomb also kill javascript and C++ or would I have to keep throwing trolleys at it until I get both silicon valley and the JS/C++ devs?
At that distance it also kills you, so it sounds like a good deal. No regrets.
win win win
Fuck the metro I guess.
Now how do I get it to drift over everything but teams a and b?
It’ll hit the bomb, so teams a and b will be blasted either way :)
I assumed that the bomb would only kill 4.5 million people but all 8 billion are acceptable too, unless the teams a and b happen to be in the blast radius which seems unlikely. To me the area was only referencing the location of the bomb not the train.
I like those odds
There is at least one user here in the superposition of being on two tracks at once.
