The movement (kinetic energy) is the driver with the atmospheric patterns. There’s no movement in the honey comb.

Unrelated though - that’s a packing efficiency thing.

Presumably to do with vibrations at a harmonic of the RPM?

Wat

Edit: oh, right, 12 point sockets

Standing wave. Earth kind of has one in the jet stream (3 peaks and troughs though, usually), but you can’t see it with visible light.

Also it’s building on top of existing fragility (the thin pillar below), and only making it worse

I guess enshittification has been moved off the backlog then…

On par for Microsoft software in general. Seems like every week I discover new bugs in outlook.com…

The developer who was there when I started my last job believed that libraries should be avoided at all costs. He wrote a CSV reader from scratch in python. It didn’t work in many edge cases. He didn’t like it when I pointed that out. Nor when I showed him that his “better way” in another case was more than 10x slower using a profiler… At least he was using git, but the git history was full of long series of identical commit messages unrelated to code changes, because PyCharm has an option to reuse the previous commit message on a new commit…

He eventually quit and I spent 3 years refactoring his garbage before we finally had a tech team who could take over (I’m a scientist, with self taught coding skills). Pretty sure even after we had a tech team of 7 if was still a better coder than most, purely because I was interested in how coding works, and trying to understand underlying concepts.

Multi-million dollar advertising budgets from apple and Microsoft. Coordinated campaigns to embed those systems in education institutions and workplaces.

Nice.

I’ve been running kubuntu on a lenovo yoga for years, works great.

I think the only think is that the touch screen maps incorrectly when there’s a second monitor plugged in. I didn’t use it enough for that to be annoying, and it’s possible it’s fixed on plasma 6, I haven’t tried yet.

Looks like it’s dual licenced, MIT and Apache https://github.com/trifectatechfoundation/sudo-rs
