I think Plato said philosophers like him should have power. Philosopher-Kings.

More of a Lenin vibe

It was freely chosen for simplicity.

If you choose another R, the other sides (x and y) become R*cos(th) and R*sin(th)

I don’t understand what is harmful about the unity circle either.

This has me confused.

Temperature can be used to refer to how fast the atoms are jiggling (kinetic or phonon temperature) or to how messy, disordered (opposite of ordered) a system is.

Time dilation is a relativistic effect where time appears to go slower when you are looking at something that has a very high speed (near light speed) compared to you (relative velocity). Can also happen with mass because gravity is acceleration, thus related to velocity.

If the atoms are jiggling slower, relative velocities only shrink, so you’d expect to see less relativistic effect. I am not aware of any relativistic effects due to thermal motion in normal conditions (room temp, atmospheric pressure), so I don’t know how they’d appear when relative velocities only decrease.

I am really interested where you got this temperature - time dilation link from. Can’t seem to crack it.

Great job on the title @teodor_from_achewood@lemmy.world

People, don’t downvote! Look at the instance David’s on. nl is Netherlands. That’s us. We are nazi europe. The fascists are in government here in .nl, with a party that has only one member.

That is forbidden in Germany btw. I always like asking Dutch fascists why they think that party structure is forbidden in Germany specifically. Watch them realize they have to link the way their party is organized to WW2.

Check CompassRed’s comment above.

The definition part of the wikipedia article has a table with these “nice relationships for addition and scaling”. You will see that they also hold for many kinds of functions, such as polynomials and other more abstract things than points and directions in 2D or 3D. N-dimensional vectors for example, or using complex numbers, or both.

Good point. I guess you’re right, there are no flattering roles. But each of those options you list would have been less on top of existing prejudices.

Making her the (non-technical) project manager whose only contribution is “how many story points is that?”, who’s then silenced because “this is important!”, confirms the typical prejudices about women in tech:

• no technical expertise
• is not in charge
• does not have anything to say that is worth listening to in times of crisis

Especially being talked over. This matches many women’s experiences in men-dominated environments to a T.

I’d much rather the technically competent, important but socially weird engineer (Jared) be the woman, or the incompetent boss, who’s in charge and calls the shots. Even having no women in the skit would be better than this Cindy role.

Or, weird idea I know, multiple people with different roles being women. 🙄

We all get frustrated with scrum at times, but not all of us use TTS to make a casually sexist skit about it.

Unlike most houses, in mine the Fox won’t change the default browser.

The most mind-blowing moment I’ve ever had was the course Relativistic Electrodynamics.

If you assume static electricity (charges attract or repel), then apply special relativity to see what the situation looks like to an observer travelling by, you get magnetism!

Turns out half of Maxwell’s laws is a direct consequence of the other half once you know about special relativity.

My condolences!

Yeah that’s the whole Enterprise LTS issue. RHEL is the same, as is Ubuntu after a literal decade of LTS support.

I am so happy that we have podman in RHEL 8. Rootless podman containers with distrobox are a godsend in these software geography dig sites that have to pass for a workshop.

I don’t know. All Nitter instances stopped but some hero sprinkled a bit of fairy dust on it and created xcancel.com

If it endangers the continued existence of xcancel.com, I don’t want to know how it works.

🤜🤛

Converting it to Nitter (xcancel.com) for people who don’t want to go there:

Obviously, I can’t tell you about the privacy implications of every internet routing device on the planet.

I was just trying to provide a more complete and longer TL;DR than the one I was responding to.

Sounds like you know what you are doing as well as anyone could, you don’t need my TLDR

TL;DR: Don’t buy Mesh WiFi, especially if offered at a low price/subscription by your ISP. Use old-fashioned routers and access points.

If you already have or really need Mesh WiFi, consider installing a VPN client on every single device that supports it. A VPN config on your router will not protect your data from the spying WiFi Mesh Pods.

The meme is great, but I don’t understand the bottom text.

Is OP saying they’re completely unaware of systemic sexism in academia?

I wish I had a fraction of that positivity.

The time between “start integrating” for an Ubuntu release and the actual Ubuntu release, is typically a full kernel release cycle IIRC. It takes months before it is actually released. Once it’s in your daily driver, it won’t be a release candidate kernel anymore.

Not supporting a newly bought modern computer out of the box is pretty bad for an OS that claims to be accessible and easy to use. So I understand the shift.

I trust their testing process is adequate to ensure stability at release.

Ever heard of a French guy called René Descartes? He basically wrote the script for this movie, The Matrix, a few hundred years before they started shooting it.
