Logic (needs to be specified by GP, but assuming predicate logic, as we're talking prolog here!) can't hold probabilities (very well) or contradictions.

Not sure which BBC basic you used, but it certainly DID have line numbers when I used it. (BBC Model B) However there were user defined functions and procedures as I recall.

Yes, but that's (your chemical reaction) a very simple explanation of photosynthesis. The reactions in chloroplasts , according to Wikipedia at least, is much more complex. It seems that it's a multi-purpose process that eventuall

Indeed I think I got confused ... either getting the Krebs Cycle the wrong way around or confused about where the ATP came from... Possibly the latter, this will teach me to comment whilst half asleep and half remembering biology from over

Indeed. Sunlight alone can't pull a significant amount of water out of the atmosphere, and plants/bacteria need additional energy in the form of sugars to pull carbon out of CO2 in the air. Where's all this energy coming from

by opless 8y ago
So, the self filling water bottles don't work because of the energy required to extract H2O out of the air is excessive (think how much electricity is required for your dehumidifier) ... Extracting carbon from the CO2 in the air is goi

None are 'better', some have workflows subjectively better than others. For example the C++/drag and drop scripting in Unreal I dislike. Where I dislike unity's subscription model, and some of the newer features don&#x27

Having been a motorcyclist when I was younger and ostensibly more reckless (not that motorcyclists are more reckless) I can tell you from experiance that you have very little getting in your way visually. However in a car you have two pill

I remember installing some random utility (but safe source that I'd used umpteen times before - but not recently) and getting chromium installed - without my permission. I forget what is was, or indeed where I got it from, but this is

Sure. Especially if you were doing cross platform work. E.g. monogame, mobile development etc. The move to the cross platform .net core would take preference if I was learning .net now however.

X11 just requires a Windows based X-Server. Then you can use your favourite xterm emulator and worry less about your ssh agent woes. No Dbus - because no drivers. No systemd - hurrah No proper init system - sucks, but at least you get fstab

WSL does very well for me. Lack of booting services can be irksome, no underlying support for docker, no KVM etc. (Not having to deal with systemd is a bonus IMHO) However pretty much everything else I've thrown at it works. Even runni

GPDR or whatever it's called requires it. So pretty much the entirety of the EU... Or companies with offices in the EU ... So if you're an EU citizen, you should have been notified by law.

Perhaps I should not have been so hasty. It's just annoying that the implication is that the 'reinventors' haven't done their research. It's almost as bad as my original feeling of "that's an new old thing
