THE MORE YOU SAVE

I would say for whether or not your vote really counts it doesn't matter if the party has 20.5% or 0.5%. Each vote counts the same towards the next seat, which may be the first or the twentieth. So I would encourage everyone to vote small parties (except for the crazy ones).

Yup, we are experiencing more extreme weather situations. Until 2022 it was unusually dry, now 2023 and 2024 had relatively more rain, sometimes in a very short timespan causing flooding.

What does Temu have to do with YouTube now?

I did not expect BSW to be as far detached from Die Linke.

IEEE 754 is the standard to which basically all computer systems implement floating point numbers. It specifically distinguishes between +0 and -0 among other weird quirks.

Okay, who will go to court for the cereal soup question next?

The fact that every 4-digit pin is in this picture shows quite well how these are pretty easy to crack.

I don't think I've ever seen a game on Steam with "Overwhelmingly Negative" reviews before. Usually "Mixed" is already a good indicator to leave your hands off a game.

That's wrong, it calculates the surface distance not the distance through the earth, while claiming otherwise. From the geopy.distance.great_circle documentation:

Use spherical geometry to calculate the surface distance between points.

This would be a correct calculation, using the formula for the chord length from here:

from math import *

# Coordinates for Atlanta, West Georgia
atlanta_coords = (33.7490, -84.3880)
# Coordinates for Tbilisi, Georgia
tbilisi_coords = (41.7151, 44.8271)

# Convert from degrees to radians
phi = (radians(atlanta_coords[0]), radians(tbilisi_coords[0]))
lambd = (radians(atlanta_coords[1]), radians(tbilisi_coords[1]))

# Spherical law of cosines
central_angle = acos(sin(phi[0]) * sin(phi[1]) + cos(phi[0]) * cos(phi[1]) * cos(lambd[1] - lambd[0]))
chord_length = 2 * sin(central_angle/2)

earth_radius = 6335.439 #km
print(f"Tunnel length: {chord_length * earth_radius:.3f}km")

A straight tunnel from Atlanta to Tbilisi would be 9060.898km long.

Ever since I've understood that it accepts objectively wrong answers as long as it somehow seems as if you gave it some thought, I've made sure to hinder the accuracy of models that try to use my data.

György Ligeti: Aventures

Very experimental, not just with microtonality but making the singers do noises that few composers dared to put into their music.
