  • Midrange might, but mainframe users pay ongoing amounts to IBM for however much compute they use for the life of the machine

  • That's alright, so far they haven't even come close

  • You can evaluate effectiveness by company profits. One program might manage a business well enough to steadily increase profit, another may make a sharp profit before profit crashes (maybe by firing important workers) . Investors will demand the best CEObots

    Edit to add: of course any CEObot will be more sociopathic than any human CEO. They won't care about literally anything unless a score is attached to it

  • I'm sure they would only venture onto you if they were persuing something that already ran onto you

    You're big and scary and dangerous to something as small as a dinner plate sized spider, they're not going to risk walking on megafauna (did you know we are megafauna?)

    Tiny spiders might not have the perspective to recognise that we're living things, but they crawl on us when we're awake. Huntsmans keep a distance from us, and think they're perfectly camouflaged while they stand still, as they are when they're not on an ivory white wall

  • We let huntsman spiders live in our houses, they're harmless and keep other insects down. That one has been eating well. They're not often that big

  • There's no controversy, only differing categories.

    If you are saying tomato is a fruit, you are using the botany category

    When I say tomato is a vegetable, I am using the culinary category

    If there's argument it's only because someone is keeping the category secret

  • You can't say "both" when there are three choices

    1. Vegetable as a culinary term
    2. Fruit as a culinary term
    3. Fruit as a botanical term

  • If it is from a plant and it goes into fruit salad, it's fruit

  • It's fair enough to call things different to what that actually are. Vegetables in common language just means the stuff treated as vegetables in the kitchen. Calling all the things that are actually fruit fruit isn't really useful in the kitchen. I don't want tomato or pumpkin or cucumber in a fruit salad

    Likewise with berries. Using the scientific names isn't useful in the kitchen, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries are all used similarly, despite only one of those is technically a berry

  • I just replied to someone in another thread who made a comment that assumed the moon was only up at night. Right now the moon is a crescent following the sun, it'll be visible almost the whole day, and most visible in the sky just after sunset following the sun down. I'm amazed at how little people look at the sky

  • We will see. Militaries are making laser based anti drone weapons, and anti aircraft weapons are expected "soon"

    Green lasers seem popular

  • Yuck. 75 is such a clean number to work with in percentages, it's 3/4 of a hundred

    3/4 of 4 is then easy

  • Is that the one that goes: cut one person, give the three survivors an apple each?

  • 4% is 4 in a hundred

    75 is 3/4 of a hundred

    4% of 75 is 3
