That’s a very interesting idea.

Quick question, you say 80% of the carbon is stored in the root and that you can harvest hemp 4 times a year. Do you harvest the roots when you harvest it? Or are you only harvesting 20% of the total captured carbon on each harvest?

It is shorthand for “number”. N°6 is read as “Number Six”.

They know it’s not 89°. They are messing with the perfectionists and a bunch of you took the bait.

Hey please don’t reply to my comments. Thanks!

This meme is dank and if you don’t like politics that’s totally fine but you don’t get to dictate to others what this community is about.

THE ONE TRUE FORMAT

During Covid they were talking about letting people back on planes if everyone wore a mask. I told a friend that’s ridiculous, the total volume of air will be filled with corona virus, the mask doesn’t stop the virus it just projects the virus upwards.

Friend lost his shit. Called me a science denier and legitimately thought I was a right wing lunatic. The guy is a Staff software engineer at Meta. We rarely talk anymore which is too bad but also maybe for the best.

This is probably the third meme in two days where the top comment says it’s not a meme.

I have one dream for Linux. I’m a huge OSS fan and I want to see it thrive.

I think Microsoft should partner with Oracle to make Oracle Linux 9 support all the Microsoft ecosystem. I want AD in Linux. I want Microsoft Word on Linux. Oracle Linux 9 is the obvious successor to RHEL and Microsoft has an opportunity here to build something great.

Lmao just kidding

Windows OS is one of the biggest misses in the company’s history. The money lost on Zune pales in comparison to the missed opportunities of making NT the go-to dev platform.

People like Mac OS better. The most popular user OS in the world is Android. Cloud is Linux. Microsoft knows they have to play nice because they are so far behind there’s no point in competing how they used to.

Hashtag BreakUpNestle

Do you think Microsoft removed features from their language because they hate Linux? Or do you think maybe the way syscalls and the filesystem work are different in Linux and that makes hot reload a bit of an engineering problem?

We can never know, but I’m guessing Microsoft didn’t port their language to Linux just to shoot themselves in the foot. On the other hand, it is Microsoft.

Launchpad! And generally the “GSE” (ground support equipment, like fluids and pipes), mission control, electrical and network infrastructure, etc.

The workers are generally technicians, not engineers, and they are both hilarious and excellent.

This entire weird conversation aside, Palestine/Israel conflict does not currently affect the West. It could hypothetically escalate until it affected the West I suppose.

Also, Israel is not in NATO. They are a “NATO partner” but are not legally tied to the security alliance.

There is a History of the Byzantines podcast and it talks about the political maneuvering in the empire and church. They had political parties and each party had separate religious beliefs and that was important for how church doctrine evolved.

It’s so incredibly political it’s unbelievable. It’s like “I want to be emperor so I will agree to whatever those guys say so I can gain their political support”. And now hundreds of millions of people think that’s the word of God when really it’s the back alley dealings of Justinian.

These pedantic Lemmy nerd fights remind me of how I learned so much on early reddit reading similar arguments.

Yeah but what if I don’t have access to a ruler and I only have my feet?

Lmao checkmate euro

Your grammar is correct and your sentence structure is fine. It just lacks a bit of… pizzazz 😉

You could say

Regardless, it remains in use as a measurement that only a small fraction of the world continues to use.

Which maybe is a little bit too much pizzazz for Lemmy but you don’t really get to have fun with your writing elsewhere!

Oh my God I have a story about this.

Our entire company wants metric. The guidance folk want to do their modeling in metric. The prop team wants to do fluid/thermo in metric. The structures team wants to do load analysis in metric.

But the boys at the 'pad are imperial only. The water system, fuel tanks, all ground infra is in imperial. If someone runs down to the hardware store they can easily find a fitting, gasket, or o ring in imperial. But metric? Good luck.

So our company decided to support both. The flight computer and ground software did unit conversions, everything was unit-aware, telemetry was occasionally manually converted because the onscreen wasn’t the right unit. We had written our own turing complete, inhouse programming language and we ended up implementing dual-static typing. We had float, int, bool and then we had units where some operations required the units to be the same thing. So cm and inch but not inch and kilogram.

The project was terribly mismanaged. To this day some still wonder why.
