  • I haven't used those. But KDE Plasma is also similar, so I guess, yes.

  • Yeah, cinnamon has a windows-like taskbar, startmenu and icon tray.

  • Oh I remember those! I think minecarts can still do something like that, when you stack multiple into the same spot and remove the rails; they just push each other until something disturbs them.

  • Furnace minecarts are so useless, the best usecase for them I saw was putting them in the ground where the top sticks out as a decoration.

  • NACK-ing rust at version 8 of the patchset is kind of a dick move. The 7 others were fine before? Ridiculous that Linus didn't step in in a definitive way.

  • We are in "free fall" around the Sun so that's why we don't feel its pull of gravity.

    You would similarly feel weightless if you were in an orbit around Earth.

  • Space is emerging faster than it can transmit changes. This is why no light can reach us beyond the observable universe.

  • In GN's video the law firm mentioned there are 3-4 cases already and they are probably getting combined or go to the same judge. (IANAL; IDK the specifics)

  • Anecdote from my first job (software engineering): New manager wants to know what our team does and how our process and software works. Like, he really really wants to know it!

    Okay, I book a timeslot and prepare some slides and an example; we have a meeting. I go over the high level stuff, getting more and more specific. (Each person on our team was responsible for end-to-end developing bootloaders for embedded HW.) When I got to the SW update process and what bit patterns the memory needs to have and how the packets of data are transmitted, he called off the meeting and I've never seen him since.

    I guess, he didn't want to know THAT much after all.

  • As hard as it may be to believe, I can't eat metaphysics for put a roof above my head with it. Even Plato didn't sit on perfect abstract chairs or ate abstract apples.

    Here's another argument I thought of in the meanwhile:

    1. If we accept that the rule of golden mean is universal, then it necessarily applies to itself. Thus, the correct use of the rule is somewhere between the absolutes of not applying it at all and applying it to everything. There are circumstances in which it shouldn't be used.
    2. If we don't accept the rule as universally true, then there are circumstances in which it shouldn't be used.

  • A delicate balance

    Jump

  • If I mix water and cement there is a distribution of the two, a ratio if you will. Just because statistics deals with distributions (of probabilities for example) doesn't mean all distributions are in the field of statistics.

    I'll leave it at that.

  • A delicate balance

    Jump

  • Depends on the type of distribution too. In some discrete cases there isn't a mean value. A binary choice for example has no applicability of the golden mean. Like a two party system. If neither represents your values, you can only choose the one that mostly does. Which is not the optimal outcome, just the local maxima.

    The golden mean argument also assumes that there is only one good soulution, where multiple equally good ones can exist too.
