Solar wind thermal energy works almost everywhere that humans thrive and it's cheap

Only an idiot thinks that when we say *we are destroying the planet " they literally means the planet will explode or something. It's clear that we mean the only part of the planet that is meaningful for us, the biosphere.

Sure but it's the first time I've ever seen the site. I'm not sure I want to give them more of my data

I was a mod for a community of over 100k. Being a mod sucked. It was dealing with entitled users who wanted you to run the sub to their liking, nuking spammers and trolls, and basically caring for it like it was a digital baby.

I did most of my moderation in RIF.

I nuked my account and deleted it when the other moderators voted to reopen the sub. Lemmy life for me now.

Corporatism, at least in this current style is more than capitalism. In capitalism we let failed companies fail, in corporatism they are too big to fail so their failure is socialized and they are encouraged to suckle at the teat if the public purse.

Governments could take back control but they are run by weak people who are easily bought for pennies.

Corporatism is basically the same thing except we let private organisations who's only interest in profit be "daddy"

It's not logic, it's that what it means. 2*4 literally means 2+2+2+2. Just like 8/2 means how many times you can add 2 to itself until you get 8.

That's what it means.

So why use braces? Because in more advanced maths you have more complex expressions that can't be express in just multiplication which often occur in algebra or beyond.

For example what does 2 * ( a + 3) actually mean? Like why do we need to do the addition first. Its because we don't know how many times we need to repeat the addition until we know what a means.

Let's say a are points on an axis, and at some point it is worth three the. At that moment that expression is 2 * (3 +3) = 2 * 6 which is equal to 2+2+2+2+2

But in the next moment a might be 1

Right?

What's arbitrary are the labels on the rules. The rules themselves aren't arbitrary.

It's an irrelevant point in the discussion. Yes, it's a range.

Multiplication is a notation which means add some number by itself a number of times.

5 x 3 = 5 +5 + 5

2 * 4 = 2 + 2 + 2 +2

So when you see some like 2 + 4 * 2 it literally means. 2+4+4

Mate, do you understand what a global average is?

Imagine if someone said, the average age of people on Lemmy is 22 and you were like huh I'm 12. Yeah, it's an average, it has a range

That's not the problem. Most in development tech companies aren't in profit mode. The problem for reddit is that they have no way to generate revenue to attract investors

I use Firefox at home and chrome at work. I've never had a meaningful problem with Firefox that isn't roughly equivalent on chrome.

The only thing that will force you to be a good programmer is you.

Actually, someone on 12m a year needs a personal assistant who can keep their non working life in order. Pissing away their partners time in dishwashing would be a waste of time.

Mate, of she's earning 12m a year we can afford a cleaner. It would be my job to attend her other needs, if you know what I mean.

Be an awesome friend who has her back in everything she needs.
