If corruption happens then any guarantees by the hardware are voided, and the software guarantees (of durability) which are built o the hardware guarantees are equally voided. So corruption -> dead in the water. But otherwise I agree.

You can't distinguish the boxes externally (just by looking anyway). Therefore you can't say which one contains kinetic energy (the box with the spinning disk) and contains the potential energy (the box with petrol in it). If yo

MatMult = the dot product, effectively. I can't believe that allowing smaller vectors is difficult or even non-trivial in hardware.

That was a very interesting question to which you gave a very definite answer, but why do you say kinetic? Maybe I don't understand what potential energy is. from wiki < https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_en

Oh god this hurts. The same sloppy arguing. Ok I was talking about literature. You just expanded it a whole lot, which diffuses the point I was making. I don't think this is a tactic, I just don't think you can focus. Nonethless,

Arguing with artistic types is frustrating because they have no rigour. For instance "because only science can provide truth" - I never said that. (edit: regarding "Maybe it's not valuable because it's not true?&quo

Maybe it's not valuable because it's not true? (and maybe it is because it is - but how can I tell). In science we can point to solid results like having electric lights to write literature by. What is literature worth - show me s

> and to make explicit and examinable things we may not ourselves think to examine, or may otherwise think shameful or private and ours alone That's just a claim, I could write the complete opposite and have it be just as (in)valid.

Why do you say "UI and UX"; how are they different in your view? Jargon BS is invading people's heads and it has to stop.

If you haven't any experience of doing proofs of correctness, it may be worth getting some before being certain about what you prefer. Proofs are hard. Proofs of something like the kernel... dream on.

You need a job to support yourself so you can do your programming as a hobby/pleasure.

That was my understanding too, but britain back then (let's say 1 AD, a bit pre-roman invasion) wasn't remotely uninhabited and those there were mainly farmers AIUI. Also that doesn't explain the lack of 'ornaments'

I've no idea if that even means anything. I'll say it then, I think that's a load of tripe.
