The OS would crash entirely before that happens

Those bitflips are probably more likely to skip the section erroneously than waiting for the array to be sorted.

Well, what even is a “positive experience”? “Getting exactly what you paid for”? The service being “mostly reliable”? Those are basically neutral.

“designed” is a bit much but it sure does play into their hands.

Is he around kids? I’ve seen like 1 video of his and I don’t think there were any kids.

Okay so should these people just not work anymore after they’re convicted and supposedly done their sentence?

Way more than that aus already been spent

It really hasn’t overtaken the original meaning yet. You might wanna try touching grass.

This happened like half a decade ago

Double is a scale in itself, it assumes the first thing as 1 and the second thing as 2. The are no other scales needed when I say something is double the other thing. The other thing is the scale here.

He might be gone, but his cult isn’t.

That isn’t even generally true. Try mentioning crypto on the LKML and see what they think you mean.

The scale doesn’t matter, double is always double. No matter if expressed in 1m is half of 2m, or 3ft is half of 6ft. Same is true for temperature, als long as the zero point is fixed.

Do you also say “the temperature in the freezer has doubled” when it goes from -12°C to -24°C? Not saying that would be disingenuous with your arguments.

That’s not how it works, an “idle” CPU is already generating a not insignificant amount of heat. That why you measure the difference against ambiant air if you’re at all serious about it.

Usually that should mean it cuts the difference ambiant and CPU in half. Anything else would just be stupid or a lie.

Yes it gets harder, but it doesn’t get 10x harder with 10x users. It should scale somewhat logarithmically. With millions of users that makes it still much cheaper to operate per user than with a thousand.

Mini USB cables basically falls out every port I have. Which makes sense, those things don’t even have the tiny retaining clips that micro does.

I’m not sure what kind of eggbeaters would survive smashing potatoes, but I’ll live in fear of them from now on.
