I have to be that guy: it’s K, not °K.

Japan also is dominated by iOS

That’s because it just sounds cool… But for Valve, I assume the reason is that it’s like the counterpart to Proton (protons are in the nucleus, and electrons are leptons)

Evolution and shit

I’ve seen you multiple times now and I have a question: The transcription of your name in Latin letters is the Japanese reading of the hanzi/kanji, isn’t it? Or is the Chinese reading really so similar?

I’m German and I didn’t know we can count to 720 with our hands…

!Explanation: An exclamation mark marks factorial, and 6 factorial is 720.!<

Americans generalizing the whole of Europe again. In Germany, a large coffee is certainly not the American size, but it’s also not the small Italian size.

So you’re saying waves and particles are projections into 4D spacetime from some higher-dimensional spacetime?

The fermion number conservation would be violated anyways.

Well, but it also has to stay on its edge, and that’s a lot less likely…

Fedora supports secure boot out of the box

But I think it’s better for it to fail from expected behavior vs unexpected behavior. Your storage being full is very transparent and expected, but that a file reaches max size and starts cutting off is unexpected and would surprise a lot of people.

I myself use supercomputers and the log files can get into a lot of GB, and I would hate it if it just cut off at some point.

Well, Linux is also made for servers and super computers, and just imagine it refusing to keep logs because the file’s too large

Die*

I used to run Debian Testing and it borked my install - never had that problem on e.g. Arch. I feel like because it’s not a rolling release as the default but explicitly for developers, it’s less stable. But that might just have been bad luck.

Honestly, also the latter. If you are using hundreds of thousands of cores for over 100h, every single second counts.

It really depends on your field. I’m doing my master’s thesis in HPC, and there, clever programming is really worth it.

It’s not an electromagnet, it’s a superconducting magnet. And turning it immediately off makes it melt.

Also related, I had a psychology teacher with a PhD in psychology. But because in German schools, you need to teach two subjects (with the exception of the arts), he also taught physics. He was a terrible physics teacher, but a pretty good psychology one.

I do understand it differently, but I don’t think I misunderstood. I think what they meant is the physicist notation I’m (as a physicist) all too familiar with:

∫ f(x) dx = ∫ dx f(x)

In this case, because f(x) is the operand and ∫ dx the operator, it’s still uniquely defined.
