… This is a really bad time for a “I am Spartacus” thing.

Rubber works fine.

10 as the first overflow of digits is not a clear vlaue, it depends on the notation because its base is unclear.

Ten as the English word is 100% defined. The issue is we translate seamlessly between the word and number, but there really is no confusion when writing ten. 10 in hex has a different english word: sixteen.

English number names are mostly decimal-based, but their values are still fixed. Ten isn’t the word for “the first time our number system overflows”, it’s an amount.

So I disagree. Ten will always be (…) this many, because it’s an English word.

I would recommend a VM to try a few things. HyperV, while not the greatest, is good to start off and comes with Windows Pro. Set up a Debian or Ubuntu and a Windows VM and take away its internet. That should get you most of the way.

Totally depends on the situation. Five seconds in, short beep? Absolutely. We all make mistakes, no problem. Sorry for causing a delay.

Half a second, leaning into the horn? That’s uncalled for. Then coming up next to me to want to argue while driving? Now the other guy’s definitely in the wrong.

The most eco-friendly car is the one already in your driveway. Use it until it dies.

WHAT. The Opel is basically exactly what I wanted for months. Why isn’t it on the ADAC page??

Oh. Probably because it’s an ebike. 45km/h max, wtf.

Rebel Moon. Oh yeah, they’re so bad. And apparently a third one is on the way, and the extended cuts for all of them.

Let’s compromise!

Alloy.

Or what we can agree on: HO. Omg Santa was right all along.

Does the island protection with if you have two inverters running independently? (legally or not)

Also, emergency service hazard. The PV won’t turn off if firefighters take out the mains, which makes a house potentially inaccessible during an emergency.

And understandably you wouldn’t switch plans if all you’re talking to is sales without context.

My point is the difference between number system and language. We’re seamlessly converting back and forth while writing this, but there’s a specific amount in our heads that we’re trying to communicate, either by word or by number. The number is ambiguous only if you don’t know the base, while the word is ambiguous only if you don’t know the language. The meme is - presumably - in English, and they’re talking (in speech bubble form), so the misunderstanding doesn’t really happen. it’s only when a secondary ‘language’ is introduced - the numbers - that it is possible.

Ten in particular, which we usually write as a two digit number because of historical and biological context, still uniquely describes a certain amount without any relation to it being written as the first two digit number. In any language, you wouldn’t translate to one two three ten just because they usually write in base four, you’d translate to whatever their word for the number is that you’re trying to translate.

more precisely, every base has 10, but it’s usually not equal to ten. ten is a fixed value, while 10 depends on the base. you still count normally (one two three four five), even in a base two system. you just write it differently.

No, ten is a fixed amount in English. It has roots in base ten, but we also have eleven and twelve from other bases. (also dozen, gross, score.) In English there is no ambiguity when it comes to what number the word ten represents.

Only when written, which is the whole point of notation. “Ten” is still a fixed amount, and so is four.

we use vmware because customers do. if they migrate - which they might because of the licensing thing - we will too. so it’s an actual possibility already.

fingers crossed!

and we still can’t get vmware to run properly on our company laptops. current theory is p/e core scheduling shenanigans. it’s only been two years, what can you expect from the global leaders in virtualization and os.

i swear, before i upgrade I’ll move my team to Linux. I’ve been mainlining debian for six years without issues, INCLUDING RUNNING VMWARE.
